Depending on tomorrow's results, this could already be an early weekend where the real title challengers streak clear. City and United will be away soon, probably with Chelsea as the only other true contenders.

Even if those results were to happen, there'd only be a 3 point gap to 4th and we've got Chelsea/Man City in a fortnight. They still won't be much clear of anything.

I don't know why you're all writing off the champions-elect, moving up into 4th place after three straight wins.

Newcastle are only going to bottle it in the last few weeks of the season and hand it to United.

Four points to Spurs and Liverpool though. More about the fact City, Utd and (if you beat Arsenal) Chelsea get the wins on days where Spurs and Liverpool are held at home by relegation candidates.

Officials at the Man City match have had a mare.

Not watching the highlights - what happened?

[MDK]

Two offside goals and Chalobah got kung-fu'd in the Chalobollocks and not given a penalty.

[The Lusophone]

So a reverse Hughes-ing?

Underpants Shearer next season.

A triple reverse Hughes!

Hand it to ourselves? I'll take that.

I would love it

My first visit to Stamford Bridge today. 

Not holding out much hope, especially if Chelsea score first. 

Rumours are that Özil is injured. To be honest, a front three of Sanchez, Welbeck and Lacazette is a better option today anyway. 

[Baddar]

If he benches Lacazette in another big game, I won't be pleased. He fucked me out of fantasy points the last time.

See you there!

Actually very little chance of me seeing you there.

Lacazette starts.

Sanchez on the bench...

[stokeriño]

Wenger's selection of Iwobi and Welbeck suggests an intent of pace on the counter. I would feel better about this if Chelsea's line-up hadn't seen Rudiger and Bakayoko swapped out in favour of Cahill and Cesc... :/

[Colly]

I think I must usually miss the buildup, it looks right weird that they're discussing Chelsea v Arsenal stood on the pitch at an empty Old Trafford.

[MDK]

Anybody stuck any bets on for the games today? I went with Chelsea to win and over 3.5 match goals and United to win with the same.

[9 to 5]

Everything I had left in my betting account on over 2.5 goals.

Less than even money?
