GWT: PL Matchweek Catch-Up into (mostly) MW18 & MW19

[AB13]

Oh shit, that makes us Chelsea.

You are probably 13-14 Arsenal if anything. Arsenal were top until February but our most important player got injured and we lost the title. Van Dijk's injury will probably cost you the title. Hopefully not, because I couldn't stand seeing United win it, and I don't want a plastic club like City to win again.

There are 6 clubs within 5 points of the title, and Liverpool is in 4th right now. Why only compare these 3?

His follow up tweet says he doesn't actually consider United to be title challengers, so I'm not sure it's worth reading much into his choices.

What team other than Liverpool and the Manchester clubs could realistically win it this year? Leicester seems unlikely, Spurs too. Their teams have too many flaws. Arsenal and Chelsea don't have good enough management right now. Those three are the realistic candidates.

With how close the race is right now, any club that goes on a run could win it.

Leaving Niles out the squad to play Cedric is both Kia Joorabcian influenced corruption and sackable.

Newcastle had them on that last counter, and instead gave the ball away and left themselves wide open for an Arsenal counter.

I didn’t make the graph

Tough for Auba there. He probably should be scoring but the deflection off the foot made him have to change his angle.

I'm aware...

 

[robertmac43]

Auba man, please. Just hit the net or something.

[bluesfan94]

We need to either get Auba a penalty goal or hope we play shrewsbury and he can get one against them or a Europa league side.

 

[AB13]

Arteta needs to start playing Martinelli over Lacazette. Martinelli is more intense and direct in his actions than Aubameyang on the left and Auba, the best goalscorer, can play closer to goal

Poor header

I know he’s available today but he may not be 100%

Laca has been scoring a bunch the last month.

Much better game from Auba so far than some others I have seen this year. Saka looks great as always, he's going to be a good player in the future.

 

[bluesfan94]

Fantastic save. He had better sight of the ball, I think, than the NBC announcers are giving him credit but still a difficult save.

 

[Blender]

That was horrendous by Shelvey.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

that was nice!

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Auuuuba! Finally!

 

[robertmac43]

Yeah definitely don't drop Laca at the moment. Most in form player we have going.

THERE WE GO AUBA!

 

[bluesfan94]

We need to either get Auba a penalty goal or hope we play shrewsbury and he can get one against them or a Europa league side.

Or he can just score like that.

 

[Blender]

He's been on today, nice goal.

 

[bluesfan94]

ESR to Saka makes my heart happy
