Arsenal were lucky it wasn't worse. Spurs could easily have had 4. Dembele is so good for them. Literally eats up oppo midfielders.Saying that, Lacazette should have made it 1-1 right at the end.

This is going right to the wire so we need to get our goal difference up. We could do with banging a good few goals in, in the next few matches.

United are struggling to break down Newcastle here and losing 1-0. Maureen struggles in games he's behind and Rafa is the master at defending when his teams are ahead.

If Chelsea/ManUre draw and we beat the Hammers by 2 or more we are in second place and I can see Chelsea getting a draw.

A draw would be an ideal result but even if either team win it will still be positive for us. If mannure win we will create more distance from Chelsea and if Chelsea win we will be 2nd. That is only if we snap 3 points.

For the first time this season I'm not completely confident that Man U will get second. I would have said that Maureen plus their squad would see them through but buying Sanchez has unbalanced the side and Mourinho seems determined to pick a fight with Pogba which isn't a welcome distraction for them - coupled with the fact that their style of football gets the best out of....De Gea. We should be looking at second, if we played them next week I'd be confident we'd beat them in their own backyard.

Hopefully Chelsea will get something at Old Trafford, a point at least, then it's good news for us.
Focus is a must at this stage of the season, and we cannot afford to drop too many more points.

Yup they do seem unbalanced and currently seems like buying Sanchez has not worked in their favour. I think they looked more threatening with Rashford in the side. De gea saves their skin everytime and without him they would struggle. Against Sevilla if it wasn't for him they could've easily lost 3-0.

Mancs beat Chelsea 2-1.

Back to third place for us. It's so tight between us, Manure, Spurs and Chelsea.

Manure winning has done us a favour. Chelsea are 4 points behind us and play city next.

A victory over the Cartoon army nezt week could see us 7 points clear of 5th place.

That's actually a good point, a 7 point gap with only 9 games to go would be a decent cushion. We've still got some tricky fixtures left (United (A), Everton (A), Chelsea (A)) so it wouldn't be a slam dunk but with a gap like that we'd deffo be one of the favourites to finish in the top 4.

Yup mannure winning isn't the best but it still has worked in our hand, 4 points clear of 5th now.
