The Mailbox is a cracker. Should Chelsea send their manager to Italy for an operation?
yesterday that his club had “made a city dream again – a city that was not even permitted to dream for far too long”. What an utter load of bollocks.
Was yakking with a Gooner mate yesterday about all things football from the weekend. He is firmly in the ‘no-chance-of-winning-the-Prem-and-if-we-get-top-four-I’ll-be-happy’ camp. We ended up checking the remaining fixtures for both Arsenal and City and I was quite surprised at the result. Then checked United and Spurs and, just for kicks, Liverpool’s’ to see the likelihood of their gaining a top four spot. I’ve listed them all below.
I’m not a betting man but, looking at that set of fixtures, I really do think that Arsenal fans are within their rights to start to dare to dream. Furthermore, even if they don’t manage to prevail, who saw this season unfolding for them as it has? Emery has only been in charge for 11 of those 24 games, picking up 19 points in the process. In those 11 games he’s faced Arsenal, Man City, Man Utd, Liverpool, Spurs, and Brighton. Most media outlets described a recent ‘drop off in form’ or ‘blip’ and the lead up to the Everton game. I saw a team going head-to-head with Arsenal and a spirited 2nd half vs City – that’s the top two teams in the league.
I love those basal things that still exist, that once upon a time were all that mattered, that didn’t really separate the pros in the top division from the yard dogs in the Manchester prem.
