Think it will be City as pur main rivals this season. Only half time but Arsenal so robotic, no free flowing football. City in complete control and Haaland looks to be back to his very best and have Marmoush to come back too. I think they're the team who'll push us for the title.

I don't think any team will come close to us this season, I think we're about to do it with ease. Second place will be quite far behind I think.

Not sure City has it this season but of course, things may change. Arsenal? All blah, blah, blah. No boom boom. Just my take.

That was a different city, very much parked it second half and only unlocked by a moment of ingenuity.
Arsenal huffed and puffed but I wouldn’t say they were knocking on the door though like say a city would in a losing position. It does appear there problem is unlocking tight defences.
We are no where near our best but if we do click then we may break the chasing packs spirits and the gap may grow. City have some nice games so hoping we can find a way to beat palace.
As for Southampton, as much as I’d like to have another run in the cup. I think we need to protect all the big players and give them 30 mins max. From slots comments, I think VVD Salah and Gravenberch will all get to watch from the stands. We should have enough to see them off hopefully.

The team we have to worry about is Arsenal, delighted to have built up a 5 point lead on them because they are a very good organised unit. Have to disagree Salah (although i hope your right) but i think it will be down to the wire between us and them.

Arsenal have some very good players and have spent a fortune. Plus they have stability from previous seasons and should be pushing on to win the league this year.
The thing that holds them back is their defensive minded manager. His team selection was poor against us and City and they went out not to lose rather than to win.

We don't have to worry about anyone.
It's the rest of the league that should be doing the worrying.

Arsenal will be right up there.
They just play like a small club against the big clubs. They need to get over that then they may take the last step.
22 Sep 2025 09:10:36
Faith, they are already right up there. Up there with the best of Tony Pulis football in his prime at Stoke and West Brom.

For all the alleged talent Arsenal have they are not pretty to watch and Arteta is a bit of the ‘Emperor’s new clothes’ imo. His plan of trying not to lose rather than trusting in his and his squad’s ability to win is fairly pathetic.

Arsenal have no one feeding their forwards they never created one chance for their new forward today. They rely on corners and free kicks to much.
