We are bottling it. Two poor performances this week when we had the chamce to go top both times. Arsenal somehow played the best they have for a while, with an awful looking line up. To be 2-1 up at home against 10 men. Opportunity missed. Massive.
Now don't get me wrong, top4 would still be a great achievement and season. Still immensely proud of the team and players, just a bit disappointed! it seems like leicester's destiny to win the league this year.
Ps Son is so useless, makes no impact and Chadli should be ahead of him always
Don't care if you say I'm fickle

OP is such a mug.
We are massively overachieving to be in this position
Absolutely gutted with the result, but all is not lost. Hopefully Watford do us a favour.

Feels like we got out-manoeuvred tactically for the first time this week
----------------------------------------------------------------------
With the players they had on the pitch at 65 mins their formation would have resembled a 4221 compared to our 4231. As they would have had to push forward it probably would have evolved to a 423 with Sanchez and Ozil almost playing as forwards - not too sure why we saw fit to go 433 at that point. Lamela off; Chadli or Son on was the correct change

We were naive today. Understandable in many ways, a young team in a title challenging situation being there playing with passion and intensity. We seem to find it difficult to change our tactics as the game dynamics change. We played today the same when we were a goal down and when we 2-1 ahead vs ten men. It was like a basketball game at times, end to end , a more experienced team would have at least tried to shut up shop and slowed the game down to protect the three points better.

Lol you are all facking mugs. So we did well today and weds? Its okay to have a bad games, just saying these matches we bottled, especially considering the position we were in. Ignoring the performance - result is all that counts and we failed.
With that said i have stated i am massively proud and happy with our team and we are overachieving to be where we are. But go ahead, ignore that I said that and instead call me names lol. Even though you will all agree we have bottled it inside

Are Arsenal the only team we should care about? We're meant to be in a title race with Leicester.
I just don't know how any Spurs fan can be happy with the outcome if they have high ambitions of going for the league.
Well after being 1-0 down on 50 odd minutes, I am very happy not to have lost, and gifted Arsenal a way back into the title race. As it is they still have it to do to catch Spurs. Leicester will not win at Watford.

Sandy, City can also be within 1 point of us by winning their next game in hand. Arsenal aren't the only ones we should be looking at.
After losing already to West Ham, a draw against Arsenal would be disappointing, and it was made even worse by the fact we had it in our grasp and bottled it.

But you said we would comfortably beat arsenal. You change your mind pre/post match all the time
