right ok then i think an arsenal win is the best result for us on monday as we all know they are going to throw points away later on in the season, whereas united aren't realistically going to drop many points at all. i fear they've had their 'blip' and come out of it unbeaten, but i would also like to hope that we've had ours. it would be easier for us to catch arsenal than united. however, this is a pretty pointless thread as there is no way in hell or heaven that arsenal are going to beat man utd. i'm just excited about our position at this time of the season!

Prefer to see a draw result from a match between any of the title contenders (except City of course)--only two points allocated out of a possible three.

I get your thinking Colonel but its a draw for me

I am hoping for an Arsenal win - it will keep us in 2nd and in a position to hunt them down - which I think that we will do in the coming weeks. It will also get rid of 1 of the 2 games in hand the scum have.

I also want a Spurs win for similar reasons

In the next Monday game I truly care for I hope City beat Everton...

but I've heard tomorrow is another game too in which I'll take anything but a win for rags

I also prefer a Gunners win...The rags are proving hard to beat and i reckon they will finish above Arsenal.
Im actually leaning towards an out an out fight between us and rags for the title.Unless Chelski can get there house in order when Lamps is fit.

0-0 in both today's and tomorrow's matches. But I'm with Moonchesteri, 3 points in the Juventus and Everton games is all I really care about.

1-0 spurs

so nope

I'm not bothered who wins it tbh, nowt we can do about it anyway

I want Arsenal to win. I simply don't believe they are mentally strong enough to win the league. United on the other hand despite being their poorest side in years can win this league and if they get to the top it will be near impossible to remove them from it. As we saw three times last season in injury time. They have a winners mentality. Arsenal simply don't.

I want Arsenal to win for two reasons.

1. We stay above United.

2. Gives us more incentive to tonk Arsenal at the emirates ( and let's face it they are shit at home this season).

3. Going into next weekends games we will know exactly what is needed to smack Evertons arse.
