Well after the Arsenal players did their bit by keeping up the pressure on our Premier League rivals with a good away win at Swansea City today, we can just sit back and hope that the three points prove extra useful with some of the clubs around us dropping points.
Tomorrow we Arsenal fans will be hoping that Everton can do what they did to us before christmas and take all three points off Man City at Goodison Park and then in the big match between Man United and Liverpool I would love to see our rivals take just a point apiece.
Before that, however, we will be hoping that the reigning EPL champions Leicester city can stop the current table toppers Chelsea from extending their lead. The game is being played in Leicester but an even bigger advantage for the Foxes is the fact that Diego Costa is not even in the squad, with some rumours flying around the football media about a big bust up between the Spanish international striker and his manager Antonio Conte.
Even if Chelsea do get the win today that most expect, this Costa situation could have an adverse effect on their own title hopes while giving Arsenal’s a big boost. After Tottenham ended their winning streak last week, is the tide turning in the title race?
Bob.
