De Futebol
Since the mighty boys from Old Trafford stunk the joint out in their 3-0 loss to Newcastle they are attempting to right their ship. This loss to Toons was bad. Sure, the City blow out was bad but losing to Toons give me a break will ya.
City is loaded and they are ready for bear. Toons on the other hand are just back in the EPL for two years since their demotion three years ago.
Since the fiasco at Newcastle Man U has beaten Man City in the FA Cup. Make no mistake about it this was a huge win for Sir Alex and the boys.
Rooney was pissed he was left off the squad that lost to Blackburn on New Years Eve.
All of this drama has an effect on players and their morale and how they perform on the pitch.
We Arsenal fans know this all too well. We have had our share of crap since the season started in August. We started out like crap now the guys are playing well. Sure Arsenal has stubbed their toes but so have City and Man U along the way and this has allowed the guys to stay in touch with the leader board.
Our guys have had their chances to cut the gap but my Gunners lost to Fulham on January 2nd 2-1. In our last four matches we have two wins, one loss, and one tie.
We have to win our match against Queens Park Rangers on Sunday.
City is top dog with 48 points.
Man U is second on goal difference with 45.
Spurs are third with 45.
Chelsea is fourth with 37 and we are fifth with 36.
City is reeling.
One can argue that these two losses were in the FA Cup and Carling Cup but the facts are that the Citizens lost to Man U and Liverpool. City played two top-flight clubs. The Citizens used most of their regular players in these two matches.
One thing you can make book on City will hit a losing streak. It happens to everyone.
My guys from Arsenal hit a rough stretch in their unbeaten season but the guys rose up and managed to get either a tie or a win instead of the dreaded “L”.
Going unbeaten is very hard.
The definition of impossible is extremely difficult.
Look my guys from Arsenal the door is open all we have to do is win baby.
Gunner for life.

City are good but I am not sure that they’re simply good enough to win the Premiership !

City is slumping right now. The Citizens have not been in this pressure cooker for a long time.
