Gun to your head, if the season were to end with Arsenal/Brighton in 17th and 18th, which one would you want safe and which one would you have drop

Holy smokes... My first reaction was Brighton 18th because I have spent 90% of my life with them in the lower leagues and have seen them relegated before back in 05/06 (yes the same year Arsenal lost CL finals ). The club has solid recruitment, youth facilities, and Bloom is willing to invest in the team; Brighton would find their way back to the top flight at some point.

For Arsenal, finishing in 17th would be a big wake up call for the board and club in general. Would likely get them to invest and change things from the top down which may help in the long run. This season would go down as the worst ever and would hopefully never be repeated. If they got relegated the club could capitulate further and be the next Leeds, who knows... This would be the ultimate horror because there is no guarantee Brighton stay up the year after, and I could have both in the Championship... This scenario would ultimately lead to the end of @robertmac43

Interesting game, since both United's and Leicester's teams are pretty much exactly the same stylistically ( altough United have better players in almost every position). Both play with a fullback who can't attack, athletic and pass heavy midfielders, 3 good attackers who can combine and interchange and a workhorse who can't score in attack (Albrighton and James).

 

[The Abusement Park]

Marcus...

 

[Jussi]

Come on, Rashford, you got to score from that...

 

[Blender]

Damn, he makes up for that miss though.

 

[Vasilevskiy]

What a crazy pass

 

[Jussi]

RASSE!

 

[Blender]

Barnes!

 

[Evilo]

Bad turnover by Bruno, bad defense by McTominay and Bailly. And bad clearance by Maguire.

 

[The Abusement Park]

What a bullet.

 

[Evilo]

Fofana has Martial in his pocket.

 

[Jussi]

Fofana has Martial in his pocket.

Not really an achievement with Martial's current form.

 

[Blender]

Fofana has Martial in his pocket.

He's had a very impressive season so far for a 19 year old who moved to a new league.

 

[Venkman]

Rashford should score his header. Him, Martial and James need to improve.

Cavani and Pogba will probably be needed soon.

 

[Jussi]

Bad turnover by Bruno, bad defense by McTominay and Bailly. And bad clearance by Maguire.

Eh, he slipped and had do react quickly. That happens to every player.

 

[Blender]

Great play by Fofana there.
