What a game, Man Utd’s home form has gone, ridiculous. Good job Bournemouth had Onana in goal.

Just watched the goals- looked like a cracker!
In other news, Villa going from 19th to 3rd is pretty incredible, just goes to show what a reasonably short winning streak can do for your league position, the title race is looking much more interesting suddenly. Spurs are due one soon surely 
Oh, for even a short winning streak!
Nope. Been playing much better under Nuno, but been very unlucky and can't buy a win. Should've beaten Brighton, Man U, Villa and Fulham, but drew two and lost two. Feels like relegation. 7 points from next 3 is the bare minimum.
Yes I watched the West Ham game last night, it was super unlucky to concede two penalties in the space of about 5 minutes but what an idiot Welbeck is for trying to showboat and missing the second one 
And of course Villa had to choose yesterday to not turn up and end their long unbeaten run
no doubt they'll be back to their unbeatable best for the FA Cup game against Spurs next weekend!

Sorry I missed this, yes I don't know what it is with Spurs and getting two or three players sent off in every big game. I can't blame the managers because it's been happening for years, I can't blame the players because the entire team has changed over the last couple of years, is it some kind of curse!?Dirty Spurs, bleeping GBH merchants
Well at least you didn't get any more own goals in your favour, you've had three seasons worth in DecemberI’d argue Arsenal chose for them
Good old Utd. Wolves not won in 15 so Utd try to cheer them up by giving them a point.
They had WH, no wins in 8, Bournemouth, no wins in 10, and Wolves, no wins in 15, all at OT and won none of them. They are almost as **** as Liverpool.
I dunno what it is about Pool Spuds games but there is always drama. Be it cards, like last week, or tonnes of goals like last year, or the VAR dropping the world’s biggest bollock and disallowing a goal they agreed was onside cos “alright mate, yeah mate, sure mate, innnit, yeah mate…..wait, why are you playing on mate, that was onside mate? You gave it offside…..ahhhh mate!” (Top notch procedures there boys! Wankers) add in the currently discontinued obligatory leg breaker from Harry Kane that goes utterly unpunished cos England Captain innit, and they are quality entertainment for a neutral.
Which is something I CAN’T say about Arsenal. Dear god they are hard to watch. I dunno what it is but they just bore me to ****ing tears. Don't get me wrong, great side/squad and rightly at the top of the table, but there is just something about them. It’s as if they are playing with the handbreak on. Maybe it’s partly their Tony Pulis level obsession with set pieces, but they are a much better side than one that needs to hope to pick up something from a set piece. I watched the first half of Chelsea Bournemouth last night, which was a good game, then turned over to watch the first half of Arsenal. After 45 mins I was bored shitless so put Utd Wolves on. It was ten times more entertaining.
I gotta say as well, and I dunno why this is either, but I really really dislike Arteta. He just looks like he needs a kicking.
I don’t really know why he bugs me so much. I don’t normally dislike managers. Fergy and Jose aside, the others I dislike are more cos their hoofball football that they think is some revolutionary concept and not straight out of the 80’s. Hello Fat Sam and Tony Pulis, I’m looking at you!
Arteta doesn’t play Klopp’s “heavy metal football” or “tiki taka” but up until 18 months ago his sides were quite watchable. Now, I’d sooner let the wife put Strictly on and try and crack one off using my patented sandpaper wanking glove.
It’d be hard to watch if Arsenal win the title.
Nothing against the club or any player, even Mr Indecisive (Zubimendi) but seeing Arteta all smiling and happy lifting the PL will be hard.

It's hard for me to give an objective opinion on Arsenal for obvious reasons, but I will say that if they win the title this year they will have earned it, by hook or by crook. You may remember a few seasons ago I was saying it would have been fluke of the century if a manager with no previous experience, never mind PL experience, won the league title. But after five years of consistently performing well and finishing second a few times, I couldn't call it a fluke any more even if I didn't like it.
Yep even though they hate us I have a lot of Hammers friends so don't want to see them go down again, surely they are better than that. I am liking the possibility of Coventry being back in the PL again though!
