GWT: EPL - Matchweek 34 (ft. MW 29)

[bluesfan94]

New matchweek, new leader atop the table. Due to cup fixtures, we have a nice assortment of matches and postponements that means that the current leaders could be four points back by the time they play their next league match. Matchweek 34 brings a London derby, away matches for the two top contenders, and a point deduction derby. The midweek Matchweek 29 matches include the Cashley Cole derby, the Merseyside derby, and Brighton having another chance to have a say in the title race.

After the weekend - what are Garnacho's chances of getting back in the United squad? I assume Ten Hag will continue to hold grudges against any dissenters..

If I've learned anything about Ten Hag, it's that he'll let some players spit in his face and he'll condemn others to hell for looking at him wrong. I'd expect Garnacho to start.

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Let's go Luton.

 

[GeoRox89]

Thanks Brentford for giving Forest a nice cushion on goal difference ahead of the City match. I still have slight hopes of Luton staying up top and Everton going down instead (have to take care of business tomorrow to make that dream even inch towards reality though)

Garnacho apparently apologized so he should be good.

Almost zero rotation again after the team has looked burnt out in the 2nd halves against Aston Villa and Bayern. I get that it's a must win, but if Vieira/ESR can't get a start while we look out of gas, then why are they even in the squad?

You're welcome.

wtf is the Wolverhampton line up?

The luckiest strike again. Can only play what’s in front of you but Arsenal have played a lot of tough games at the right time this season. Which is incredibly random, and incredibly lucky

Kiwior having another terrible performance

Kiwior having another terrible performance

He's made a lot of improvement but it is hard not to feel like he's not quite our level

 

[KJS14]

He's made a lot of improvement but it is hard not to feel like he's not quite our level

He was great for a few months, and I thought maybe the poor performances against City/Bayern were just nerves and playing against good wingers, but he's been brutal again today.

 

[al secord]

Schade with a goal in his second appearance since September. Smooth operator.

I was just gonna say we may regret not being more clinical. TROSSARD

Not sure if that was a lucky goal or a perfect chip shot?

Lucky, he sliced his shot.

Trossard was such a great signing by the Gooners.

Triple the output of Mudryk for a third of the price. Lots of important goals too.

Knows his role and goes about his business. Gotta respect that.

Jesus almost got kicked in the face there and somehow no yellow...

Also not sure why we are trying to be cute on set pieces today when we have 3 CBs taller than 6'2" on the pitch, and we've scored so many goals from them this year.

Gabi Jesus is awful.

LMAO Jesus dragged off for the COVID guy

I told you he disappears after Easter.

 

[KJS14]

Gabi Jesus is awful.

He's never looked the same after he got that knee injury at the World Cup. Can't stay healthy and has lost a step.

 

[tlk]

I told you he disappears after Easter.

Whatever. (you really did??)

among other things

It's a running joke but he usually does stop scoring after Easter.
