Level with Salah for golden boot now

It’s all come down to his penalty miss at Spurs. I’ll never forgive him.

Gotta laugh at the ending there...he seriously thought Eddie was going to lay it on a plate for him :clap:

Our capitulation to finish behind them is unforgivable. We have some decent players, but the motivation and organisation levels for the last few weeks of the league season were shocking. A very depressing end to the season, Auba sharing the golden boot is the one highlight.

We're going backwards defensively.

Just noticed that’s a triple dead heat...Mane late goal.

So everyone who took the 25/1 Aboomerang at the start of the season will lose two thirds of their stake with the remaining third paid out at the 25/1.

Going to be a few angry people me thinks :clap:

What do you think we need to do, AFC East? Apart from shoot everyone, etc., as would be the typical answer on this blinkered, Wenger-loving board.

If we’d had a really good run and just missed out it would be one thing. But to fail, when all the rival teams were chucking away points as fast as they could go, made the whole thing even more galling. It was one of the weakest top four races ever, and we still weren’t good enough. Hope someone at the club has a proper plan/strategy of how to rebuild and move this squad forward. We have to expect the rivals will push forward and won’t be this bad again. A quick patch up job on our squad won’t be enough to keep us in contention.

Hard to say. Improve basically. We can’t rely on Spurs not investing a penny again and Man U being a joke. We could be out of the top 4 race by Christmas if something doesn’t change.

Torreira and Guendouzi have both declined in the last couple of months. Our defence was never this bad under Wenger for so many games.

I’m not very hopeful about next season. We could win the Europa League, but frankly that’s far easier than winning the FA Cup. We’ve not played anyone who’d finish in the top 6 in the Premiership yet. We play one and it will be a tight game.

Agree with most of that.

I don’t think the squad is quite as bad as people think. It continually performed well in marquee games. Poor players can raise it now and again, but we pulled off good performances quite a few games.

I think 3 players and the return of Bellerin could make a significant difference. Lacazette is probably going though. I just hope they don’t palm us off with the dog man as a swap.

Overreliance on Torreira, and of course Guendouzi is only 19. Our backups are not good enough. I like how Ozil has come back into things. Lot of people who are perfectly fine but don't really move the needle: Elneny, Mikhitaryan (at this stage), Iwobi. It was a shame about Bellerin and Holding.

Other than Napoli who will finish second in Serie A? You don't think the second place team in Serie A would finish in the top 6 in the PL?

Or is this another piece of AFC East insightful analysis where you exclude all the evidence that doesn't fit your theory because otherwise you might have to accept that you are wrong?

If it wasn't for a great save in the Liverpool game, Napoli would have knocked them out in the group stage.

Amazing that it is easier to win the EL than the FA cup.

5th placed finish, EL final...seems like progression to me
