West Ham 0-2 Notts Forest
Before the Hammers kicked off on Saturday, they had watched Forest lose. So they knew they only had to beat the team at the bottom of the table to be one point behind Tuesday’s opponents.
It was inexcusable not to be motivated, which means the pressure was too much to handle. I don’t know which is worse.
Sean Dyche is streetwise enough to play on West Ham’s situation. He will be telling his players that the longer they stay in the game, it won’t take a lot for the London Stadium to become toxic.
Cherries 2 -1 Spurs
Spurs were booed at the final whistle on Sunday, and at this rate, Thomas Frank might just be relieved for this fixture to be away from home. That’s where he can get away with being conservative in a game where the majority of his club’s fans wish he would show more ambition.
The Cherries are not playing like a team who have not won in 11 games.
Brentford 1-1 Sunderland
If you told me these two clubs would have 30 points after 20 games, I would not have believed you. You could argue that this fixture is between the two surprise packages of this season?
It means the pressure is off, and both can play with freedom.
Palace 1-2 Aston Villa
Palace have not won in their last 7 games, as their small squad has struggled with playing every few days. This is what Oliver Glasner tried to warn his employers about in the summer.
He will be relieved after this weekend to have the week off.
Burnley 1-2 Man United
On Sunday, Ruben Amorim wanted to remind the media that he was hired as a manager, not a coach. Was this the Portuguese trying to deflect from two draws against the bottom 5?
Or has the 40-year-old long regretted taking the Man United job and would be content to be sacked? Which he was.
He kept reminding the press he’s out of contract in 18 months and made zero suggestion he’d like to stay longer.
This comes just days after Maresca talked himself out of Chelsea, with it suggested he too felt undermined in his role.
So we are seeing a pattern of managers wanting to manage, but more and more clubs only wanting someone to do the coaching.
Wolves got a draw at Old Trafford, so I can’t even with great confidence predict an away win on Wednesday.
It’s more down to Burnley’s habit of playing well but having zero clinical edge.
Everton 1-1 Wolves
Rob Edwards deserves so much credit for getting a squad at the bottom of the table to still believe and get 4 points in their last 2 games.
It makes them an awkward opponent for Everton.
The Toffees will be rocking up on Wednesday, expecting the home team to take the initiative against a team with only 6 points.
Yet David Moyes’s side often struggles in the role of favourites.
Fulham 1-1 Chelsea
As I submit this, Liam Rosenior is flying to England and by the time you read this might be confirmed as Chelsea manager. We should be happy for any young British coach to get such an opportunity, yet would he even be considered if Strasbourg were not under the same ownership model?
In his one season at Stamford Bridge, Maresca won two trophies and got the club back in the Champions League, yet still lost his job.
It’s hard to feel any sympathy for the next boss because he knows what he’s getting himself into. Yes, you get well paid, but you have little control.
Just because it’s a different ethos, though, doesn’t mean it won’t work?
Man City 2-1 Brighton
If Arsenal win the title, some might not remember this vital stage of the season.
Sometimes in sport, you need an element of luck that is out of your hands.
In their last 2 games, City have kicked off after Arsenal and dropped points.
I would have loved the Gunners to have played first this week, as it would have meant City kicking off 9 points behind us.
Pep Guardiola has a squad who know how to get over the line, which is why we don’t want them within distance of us come April/May. If Arsenal are to become champions, it will be by building a lead now.
Newcastle 2-0 Leeds
Ever since changing his tactics, Leeds have gone 7 games unbeaten. I now think they believe they can go to places like Saint James Park and be hard to break down.
The earlier Newcastle can break the deadlock, the easier the night will be.
Arsenal 3-1 Liverpool
I’m carrying on the theory that, at the moment, the harder the fixture actually helps the atmosphere in the Emirates.
Gooners are so desperate for the club to end their title drought that there is a fear of failure; therefore, it doesn’t take a lot for anxiety to creep around the stadium.
The tougher the opponent, the more fans realise the team needs the Emirates to be as loud as possible.
Of course, the Champions have talent who can produce a moment of magic out of nothing, but this game simply means more to us.

Dan you are happy for a young English coach at Chelsea, ! It’s telling that no English coach has ever won the premier League! History of course can change, I am oblivious of the stat and if that trend goes on Chelsea are out of the running for epl. Now that makes me happy😁
Kenya001
That’s a very telling statistic and speaks volumes about the lack of skills and professionalism in the English game over many years. Wenger changed much of the blokey attitude of the time and I think that elements of that still exist in the football league.
Keeps me wondering suep! , that takes it down to quality and to some extent lack of trust from the big hitters. Why is is that a top English club isn’t going for let’s say Eddie, a southgate? Big sam was only considered to pull teams out of the drop.
Kenya001,
For me the fact that no Englishman has ever won the Premier League tells me two things.
One, the English Managers are not good enough.
Two, not many English Mangers have ever really been given the chance at the top six clubs to achieve the feat in the first place.
The whole time the Premier League has been in place, Arsenal have never had an English Manager, and as for the other five, they won’t have had many in that time either.
Derek, don’t think you can be give a chance if you are, not good enough. Rossenior has that chance now. I’ll be watching and can only wish him we’ll.

Hell no, Liam Rosenior would not have been considered if Strasburg were not under the same ownership model of the BlueCo.
Yes am delighted for Liam Rosenior to be appointed the new head coach of Chelsea, not only for British managers, but for blacks and by extension the minority ethnic groups.
This single bold act , could potentially pave the way for the likes of Sol Campbell and Kolo Toure a shot of managing top flight football.
It seems, there’s a clear strategy by the owner to develop talent, both players and coaches within their framework and for this they must be credited for such bold move.

It’s a crazy fixture list, quite literally a match every 3 days coming up. Is this unprecedented? It’s this a voyage of discovery?
A few years ago there was a “winter break” not like continental, but an easier January none the less with one break nearly 14 days without a game for everyone. What has gone wrong? Enlarged Euro competitions? Club World Cup last summer? Proper World Cup this summer? Fixture computer malfunction?
I don’t think this amount of crammed in football is sustainable, without players tired in body and mind being swapped out for a rest quite a lot this month, so they only play twice in 9 days not three times! or else we must expect both muscular injuries like hammy and funny results due to tiredness with not enough in tank.
For some clubs it’s not so bad, as they don’t have this months Euro games and travelling, but for some that do, they also have 2 league league cup semi finals.
It’s an insane fixture list. It’s going to be a challenge. Expect some odd team sheets.

It has never been more likely this season than now, that Arsenal will land that big ears mug outright.
For fans who are looking for a basketball match that may not be forthcoming.
The Spaniard and the Dutchman are cut from the same cloth, territory and risk management is a part of their DNA, putting it bluntly they are control freak in real life
When the two head coaches are control freak, the game often eats itself out, as we saw in the classic encounter earlier against the champion and again against the big pretender
But big games of this nature often comes with drama and a level of unprecedented tension, one goal against the champion to decide this one would hardly surprise.

Gunsmoke,
Big ears mug? Which one? UCL or EPL? Or BOTH!! Don’t contradict with Saliba as he already said QUADRUPLE!!!!
Ambachew
We got to get greedy.
I like Saliba mentality.
Now my priority at the beginning of the campaign, was for Arsenal to win the premier league big ears mug, then anywhere from a semifinal finish to winning the champions league mug is okay for me.
My priority hasn’t changed, but i can understand the Frenchman appetite
We are not winning Quadruple lol
Dan doing finest the spoiler role. Quadruple impossible? The jury is OUT now. This Arsenal must smash records. We’ve two potent teams. One for the bigger and one for the lesser trophies in their traditional conservative orders.
Bet you 500 pounds we don’t win the quadruple
And I’ll split the debt with you if by some bloody strange miracle Arsenal win it all. For once I’m with you on some fans being on the arrogant side!
Dan,
Bet with the author of ARSENAL QUADRUPLE in SALIBA.
I only bought in his idea and vision. Who knows as DEREk explained us no one is a clairvoyant.
Now now Ambachew,
You don’t need to be clairvoyant to know that we won’t win the Quadruple.
To do that we’ll need everything to go our way. And while it’s not an impossible dream, it’s still highly unlikely.
But I guess it’s not a crime to dream.🤔
That’s just a play on words mates
Lots of things are not impossible but doesn’t mean you can’t say it is unlikely

One thing I’ve come to admire so much this season, about this arsenal team, is the revenge mentality 😂
Liverpool will get the memo once they arrive at the Emirates. I can’t make any score predictions but I know Liverpool will not get any points from dis.
Kklin
One thing that is clear, the Spaniard is known for his deep tactical understanding often setting up Arsenal to adapt to opponents like Liverpool.
So he will adjust formation and personal to face the champions, Merino is crucial to this adaptability in securing tough results, Slot would have noted how the Citizens came to the Emirates playing with a 5 4 1 formation, somthing unheard of from a Pep Guarrdiola coach team
KKlin,
Ever heard the saying, pride comes before a fall. 🤦♂️🤷♂️
DEREK,
Please correct us beforehand will this Arsenal team end the season trophyless? Or win only lesser trophies?
Ambachew,
I’m not clairvoyant, but I just find it a bit over the top when I read that we’re unbeatable, unstoppable and the like. Yes it’s good to be excited and confident, but don’t lose sight of reality.
Nothing is decided in January, and to some poster’s who seem to think it is, are just setting themselves up for possible disappointment.
We’ve won nothing in recent years, so we’re not in any real position to go around being cocky or arrogant. We’ve won nothing yet, there needs to be a bit of humbleness as far as I’m concerned. But that’s just my opinion.
Obviously not everyone shares my views.
I totally share your views DEREK.
GB,
Its nice to know I’m not alone.😂👍
DEREK,
-Thanks to summer acquisitions Arsenal have very dependable covers in every department;
– Most things have already become clearer just in January as only the top three could mount a title claim charge;
– Arch rivals are dropping one by one;
– Unlike previous seasons Arsenal injuries occurred before the business end of the season;
– While remaining sceptic of the team’s potency throughout and later joining the bandwagon of celebrations once title us secured is kind of sitting on the fence stance;
Ambachew,
I’m not sitting on any fence as I don’t like getting splinters.😂 I’m just more realistic, and I choose to be more cautious regards what I say Arsenal can and can’t do.
As I keep on saying along the way in other post’s, remember the mantra of one game at a time and one competition at a time.
Hopefully we will be getting that open top bus parade around Islington come May. But I’ll keep holding my fire until said trophy wins are accomplished and not before.👍
DEREK,
Your approach is quite logical and down to earth. I understand your stance given what we experienced over the past years. What do you feel if both Villa and City are beaten today and Arsenal win tomorrow? A little bit
Ambachew,
If City and Villa lose, I will of course be happy. But my mindset doesn’t change.
Just a reason why I’m cautious. In season 2022/2023, we were 8 points clear of City with less games to go than we have now.
So to be getting so gung-ho when we’re still only in January is at most foolhardy.
But if people think its a done deal, then fair play to them. I just don’t see it that way.
Once we’re 4 points clear with a game to go, then my guard will come down. 😂👍

Judging by the result of the week’s first match, it is very difficult to get half correct results let alone correct scorelines. Hard to predict fixtutes tbh. Teams are evenly balanced.
Ambachew,
You say that it’s hard to predict fixtures tbh. Teams are evenly balanced.
That’s exactly the reason it’s fool hardy of some of our fellow posters to use terms like Juggernaut, unbeatable, unstoppable and the like. 🤷♂️👍
Indeed Derek and the same goes to those who say “we’ll never win anything under Arteta”, or while Mr Kronkie owns the club, or after any dropped points calling out certain players for criticism.
Foolhardy in the extreme!!
No Ken because one is an opinion the other is factually incorrect
For example it’s an opinion that Arsenal won’t win the title under the current ownership ( because they have yet too ) it is factually not correct to say we are a Juggernaut, unbeatable, unstoppable because we have been beaten and stopped this season
Aren’t you splitting hairs here?
Your second point could be referring to what happens at the end of the season. As in being the winner and therefore unbeatable or unstoppable in their quest to win the league. Only the Invincibles have achieved that.
No Sue that wasn’t the context
We’ve already won a trophy under this ownership, the FA Cup.
I never said we didn’t
My mistake, I mis-read your post.
How is it incorrect to say we’re unstoppable Dan , when, at the moment, no one has stopped us from the following :
We’re top of the PL
We’re top of the CL
We’re in the semi final of a domestic cup.
Who has “stopped” us from these positions and can any other club say that?
By the way, you said we would never win anything under Mr Kronkie and yet (as HD points out) we have won the fa cup.
No I said we would never win a Prem under the Koronke Family
Your talking to a fan who counts the Koronke regime since they first joined the board
In that time we won 4 FA Cups so I would never say that
We are not unstoppable though in the context he wrote jt
In the context he writes in yes we have been stopped this season
Ken1945,
While I hear you regards you’re comments, “we’ll never win anything under Arteta” or while Mr Kronkie owns the club.
I can’t totally agree regards the criticism of said players. As a player that comes with the territory, and I’ve read posts from you’re goodself criticizing said players when you feel its needed.
That’s something every fan has the right to do. Whether their criticism is always balanced is another matter. But as I say its every fans right to call out what they observe in said game.👍
But your reply to Ambachew didn’t say that did it Derek?
If you believe it’s right to criticise a player, why is it not right for a fan to think we’re unbeatable, unstoppable and a Juggernaut?
I’ve criticised Mr Kronkie, MA, some of the players, the performances and also praised them all as well.
Opinions change as circumstances change wouldn’t you agree?
Ken1945,
Yes I agree that circumstance does change.
But all this talk of Juggernaut, Unbeatable and unstoppable is just heart ruling head talk. Now yes that’s there opinion and their entitled to it.
But I think it fair of me to also have a word of caution and some reality in some of the over the top hype that’s being peddled.
After all, where do we as Arsenal fans get off talking in such a way bearing in mind we’ve won nothing as yet.
It just comes across as cocky and arrogant, and we’ve done nothing yet to back up this cockiness and arrogance.
But as I said, that’s my opinion. Other’s don’t agree, and that’s fine.
Well, we’re top of the PL, top of the CL, in the semi final of a domestic cup, unbeaten at home and only two defeats in all competitions…. so when, in your opinion, should we ignore this reality and stay humble?
Of course, no other club has won anything this season, so let’s just put a wet blanket over all the results until someone does shall we?
Bring back sack cloths and ashes – how dare we enjoy the moment?
Ken1945,
What you getting so rattled about. I’ve given my opinion, you obviously have a different one to mine and that’s perfectly fine.
But cool down fella, I didn’t know my opinion would rattle people this much.
And yes we should enjoy the moment, I’m not saying we shouldn’t. But just a last word of caution from me on this subject, because we’re clearly on different pages here.
We haven’t won anything yet, and I stand by my stance on staying humble. Some people have accused City of not being very humble, and that might well be the case, but they’ve got the titles to back it up. We haven’t.
But no doubt Ken1945, you’ll come back at me with you’re usual 115 charges.
As I said earlier, don’t get so rattled. It’s only my opinion after all. Have a good evening. And Happy New Year by the way. 👍
Derek, be assured, your not rattling me in the slightest and I’m as cool as a cucumber.
This is a debating site and when one puts forward an opinion, one is inviting a response – that’s what I’m giving to you.
Im over the moon with our results so far this season and I’m determined to enjoy the successes to date.
Of course, if you don’t want to do that, then that’s your perogative.
Things could all change by tomorrow evening of course.
Happy New Year to you and yours as well.
Buzzing ….. especially if City score stays the same lol
If we win it it will be by building up a big lead and avoiding a close run in
Derek
Ive thought for ages about being humble and its context. It’s a word mentioned regularly on JA
Sometimes I think staying humble in a competitive environment such as premier league football is fraught with miss interpretation
What good does staying humble do if it seeps into the mindset of the players and supporters and interferes with self belief?
Past failure is a weak indicator of what can be achieved through a more positive outlook
On tonight’s showing, Haaland’s remarks about staying humble may come back to haunt him
SueP,
You’re quote, On tonight’s showing, Haaland’s remarks about staying humble may come back to haunt him.
Well that’s my point regards certain poster’s on here not remaining humble. Should it go pair shaped, it will come back to bite us as well.
But we are not unbeatable because we have been beaten
And we’re also not a Juggernaut, but we are, at this moment in time, unstoppable, because the only two teams that have beaten us, are below us.
In fact, we’ve already revenged the villa defeat and, hopefully, we will do the same against Liverpool tomorrow.
But the fact remains, we are unstoppable, so that word is correct.
I do agree that Juggernaut is OTT and unbeatable is now for next season (?) but I’m sure, that like me, your absolutely loving the position we find ourselves in at this moment in time?
Long may it continue.

Oh i refuse to be humble,we are so winning this league and no one can stop us,i repeat,no one can stop us.I pity for poor old Liverpool because come tomorrow,they will be vanquished.
🤔 Be humble mate. We’ve been here before!
What did that forthright pundit say after seeing our chasers falter simultaneously? Arsenal through and through Paul Merson!
ken1945,
Morning. Can I ask you a question seeking a straightforward answer only if you can and will to do so? Will Bournemouth bound Nwaneri be awarded a winners medal should Arsenal win the title? What are the rules?
Arsenal 3-0 Liverpool
Throughout this day my comments were blocked. Is it because of Da awful weather? Broadly speaking some fans are easily carried away with successive triumphs and some mates wow extremely and over cautious who steadfastly wait until the title is mathematically secured. I for sure can’t be at the latter school of thought. As under one Arsenal umbrella we need to respect divergent viewpoints and react respectfully; not resort to reactionary ways.
