Four games in a row for Arsenal without a win...

One of the very rare weekends where I watch a football match that isn't Villa. Enjoyed that.

I think it's on lads.

God knows how we got out of jail against Liverpool today. I love the fact it was 2-0 when thousands walked out for their protest and 2-2 at full time.

~~Cuthbert~~ · 02-06-2016, 10:21 AM

How many walked out?

Mojo · 02-06-2016, 11:01 AM

I'm not sure. Not a majority or anything but a decent amount of them. There were empty seats all over the place. Fair play to them, £77 a ticket is disgusting, but I still get a kick out of knowing they missed their team fall apart.

Great win for Leicester at the weekend. Man, I hope they win the league.

I still think they'll fall off to be honest. The pressure on them when it gets to the last month or so is going to be unreal. I remember reading about Roy Keane saying some of the MU players would vomit before big European matches. It will be like that x 50. Champions League football looks guaranteed now though.

If they win the league it has to be one of the biggest sporting shocks of all time. Absolutely unthinkable that a team can achieve this from where they were and the resources they have in comparison to the richest clubs. They are winning football back for everybody and they are doing it the right way.

They fucking deserve to be champions.

Arsenal are back in it if we beat the scum foxes.

Yeah, I feel Leicester will probably bottle it in the end too because their players aren't used to that kinda pressure. But who knows. I wouldn't have bet a penny on them doing well this season but there they are sitting pretty atop the league and playing beautiful attacking football.

I'd rather see Leicester win it than see Chelsea make the top 4 (haha, as if that's gonna happen, I know). But, yeah, it would be amazing if Leicester do it.
