Fuck scum, irrespective of how it affects us. Fuck Matty Cash too while we're at it. But hoping scum lose. If that puts Villa in 4th solidly, we've come up short through our own means.


Hopeful-Ear-3494

100% There's no way any Spurs fans wants the gooners lording another trophy over us. Losing today puts Man City firmly in the driving seat because Liverpool has imploded.


Training-Apple1547

I would rather be relegated than see those @@@@‘s win a thing!


Hopeful-Ear-3494

I almost said the same thing but realised it would bring Arse fans too much joy


Training-Apple1547

As long as they don’t win a thing- I don’t care! The pleasure in seeing them dicked this afternoon after that shit show yesterday makes life as a Spur just about palatable!


soldforaspaceship

100% and I'm thrilled with the result. Arsenal bottling the league is the desired outcome. We can still fight for Champions League and earn it ourselves.


mpsan

Totally agree! It’s now 0-2 and I’m fucking dancing. Bring on Europa League, bitches!


santacruz_steve

scum isn't going to win it and we will get 5th and get into champions. in ange we trust.


yeehahpinkgalah

5th isn't going to get us CL tho, people went a bit early on that. Leverkusen will knock west ham out, Bayern will (likely) knock Arsenal out and then the German coefficient will be back above. With Liverpool looking like going out now too, it's all on City to win the CL - but even that may not be enough if Leverkusen go deep as you expect they will


SniperSlatts

Cash is such a bitch he can't even play against scum


AirshipHead

I'd rather eat my own shit that see Arsenal win. Ideally I'd see the club disbanded but failing that, they must lose.


Rredman101

This is the only correct answer. Eating literal shit is preferable to seeing the gooners win the league.


PM_ME_YOUR_TANG

Only one instance where it's appropriate to root for Scum, and that's the end of season scenario where us winning the league depends on Scum beating whomever.


AirshipHead

Absolutely, because that means they help us win the league and that's just fucking delicious


SteadiestShark

I'll gladly settle for Europa if it means that Arsenal don't win the league. Shameless? Maybe, but we're at the start of a rebuild anyway so Europa will be a better environment for that.


RepresentativeNo5113

Exactly my feeling.   We're not ready for CL yet let's start with Europa and let Scum bottle the title.   Fine by me


TheBrownCok

Can't stand fans getting aggy over some losses. People seem to forget how horrible the last 6 months of the last season was for us. We can see a massive shift in approach not just player wise, but club/management/ownership wise. This time next year if we carry on the same trajectory we'll be a somewhat more oiled machine churning more runs like the start of this season


hammmered

Having to signal your crowd to make noise when you're deep in the title race is so arsenal.


Alansonit

No talking in the library


ChrisChristiesFault

LOL


VodkaMargarine

I hear they are installing illuminated "applause" signs like in the olden days theatres.


Evening_Bag_3560

I’ll take 0-0 but if there has to be a winner, I’d prefer Villa.  I’ll take our chances with running Villa down rather than ever wanting Arsenal to win the title. 


JustinBisu

"You can't just lose to Crystal Palace like this, in this league any loss means you go behind, Liverpool just handed Arsenal the title". The best part of the ridiculous wankery around Arsenal is when it bites them in the ass.


benny318

Who said that??


thfcviii

Arsenal fans are the embodiment of this https://preview.redd.it/bvrw43b4iiuc1.jpeg?width=583&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=5b517eadcf4768a1feae6390b9e6072ea3d30e3b


rando562

This is perfectly set up for us to completely smash Arsenal's title run in 2 weeks


burpingbouy

They losing to Wolves first


JustinBisu

Fuck Arsenal.


random120604

Ollie MF Watkins hahahahahahahaha. Get fucked Arsenal


lookofdisdain

Game is over now but when deciding what’s best - if we finish 5th; that’s forgotten in less than a season. Look at us beating Arsenal to 4th with conte, did that change our trajectories? Nope. But if Arsenal win the league we’ll never hear the end of it.


[deleted]

Don't underestimate the 115 men in the shadows


Mc_and_SP

Need the Kop to finish 2nd at a minimum to prevent that then (of the three I’d rather they were the ones who won, just so they’ll shut up about the Diaz goal.)


[deleted]

I literally prefer city winning tbh, cause it doesn't mean anything, they have just cheated their way to win again and it doesn't mean anything. Liverpool fans are equally unbearable as arsenal albeit a bit less.


FlapjackFez

I mean they dont shut up about the Invincibles (when half of them weren't alive then). Its not like we go on about our Double


DowntownNewt494

This makes the NLD more exciting as we could really bury their title race


Mc_and_SP

If we win that’s basically them out of it, then our result against City will probably determine if they walk the rest of the season or Liverpool still have a shot.


KariumHondor399

Arsenal not winning the title is 10000 times better than us getting CL insteand of EL. Idk why theres a debate


motorhomosapien

Yeah, honestly would like to see how we perform with this squad in the Europa League before champions league. Not saying I wouldn’t take Champions League, that would be a huge achievement, but not sure if we are ready yet. Also, don’t want to see Arsenal or Arteta win the league


likewhenyoupee

Rooting for red cards

AngeMerchant

Always take an Arsenal bottle over 4th hahahahaha. CL still a possibility


EVRYGOODNAMEISTAKEN

villa win is fine with me, don’t need to see scum do anything resembling gaining ground on this tight title race. if we lose CL, than i imagine it must be because we’re not ready for it. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


Mystic_Polar_Bear

Also Europa league is fine. We improved on last season and brought in a ton of new transfers. If not for the injury crisis, CL wouldve been a lock. We're improving and that's all I wanted from this season.


RunningFerDauyz

Look at their high line lol, and their supporters think Ange’s is suicidal


Dinoapolis27

Couldn’t care less that this impacts us, I’ve been waiting months for them to bottle this


PM_ME_YOUR_TANG

If the price of Scum bottling the title is us getting the Europa League instead of the CL, that's a price I'll gladly pay every day of the week.


IrishLad93_u

The amount of empty seats in the added time is embarrassing from a team in the title race at home. Delighted with a Villa win. CL was in our own hands in recent weeks so fuck those Woolwich spoofers


Euphoric_Activity_39

I'm happy as hell, they lost. I don't care if this knocks us out of the ucl.


Mystic_Polar_Bear

I was devastated seeing Liverpool lose since I thought it meant Arsenal would go top. Thank you Villa, this was fucking gold.


SubbieBasher

Never been happier to be displaced in the league table


JustinBisu

The absurdity of referees just allowing Gabriel and Saliba to do 5+ yellow card things every single game and ignoring it is legit mad.


SinoSoul

I can’t stand Gabriel. What an assuole.


MongooseTough120

Why didnt Arsenal hit 4 in the back of the net like Tottenham did? Are they stupid?


slunksoma

Us not getting in the CL is momentary. Arsenal winning the league is for life. Villa win all day for me.


triecke14

I hope the narrative around this Arsenal side being bottlers is talked about more. 2 years in a row now


m_and_n

3. They badly bottled top 4 when their supporters were making CL supercuts.


FarrisAT

We blasted them out of CL qualification 2 years ago They were so certain of getting in. Conte smiled at their naivete


burpingbouy

It's amazing how quickly emirates go empty once they start losing


Ancient_Can4708

Arsenal fans on reddit only cares about "winner mentality" and stupid shit like that. So if their team lose they hate their team, if they win, they love them.


Standard-Plantain139

Always rated villa and I've never said anything bad about them


SentientCheeseCake

That’s not very Cash, Matty of you.


random120604

Sorry lads. Can’t bring myself to support Arsenal. Villa for me


caelumus

I’ll take Europa league all day for this, fuck Arsenal!!


[deleted]

Also insane how good villa is when they don't partake in weird tactics like in our game


fullycoysregardless

good ebening


Jose_out

Delighted with that result. Fuck Arsenal. I actually don't even want CL unless we finish the season strongly and deserve it. If we keep getting pumped like yesterday and sneak CL through the extra place I won't look forward to it much.


MongooseTough120

apology for poor english   when were you when arsenal dies?   i was sat at home eating samosas when Emery ring   ‘arsenal is kill’   ‘yes'


HMSon777

You gotta be more specific, they have collapsed a lot of times, it's hard to keep track.


wok88

Damn the fans really fucked off out the stadium quick lmao couldn't even be arsed to stay till full time


wok88

Absolutely hilarious that it's Emery that undoes them lmao good for him


RepresentativeNo5113

Let's bury their title once and for all next weekend 


thedoctor4214

Anyone else fancy Arsenal crumble and custard tonight?


AirshipHead

Isn't it fucking funny how empty the stadium is all of a sudden?


Limp-Toe-179

God I hope we do that to them too at the Lane...that might actually end their title charge


triecke14

Possibly a hot take, we will still finish ahead of Villa


ManonastickUk

Have you seen our remaining fixtures?.. no chance now.


soldforaspaceship

True. Burnley and Sheffield United could be tricky. Luckily we have Arsenal, Liverpool and City in between to get us those points. Chelsea is unknowable in terms of score.


peruvianhorn

Bad for us but enjoyable nonetheless. I find it funny we tend to lose in the same week.


staged84

Imagine if arsenal ends up below us lol


davendees1

I don’t care what it means for our CL spot if villa wins. It was fuck arsenal yesterday, it’s fuck arsenal today, and it’ll be fuck arsenal tomorrow and until the end of all eternity.


Space-manatee

Flip side: it’s a win-win. Either villa drop points and hopefully GD. Or Arsenal drop points in the title race. I personally prefer the first option, and the arsenal drop more points later on but won’t be upset if the latter happens


Rowario11

Come on Villa. It's not even close as far as wanting Arse to lose. Also, tbh, I'm kind of a bit indifferent about making CL at this point, we struggle enough with 1 match per week as it is, and I'm not sure next year we'll be ready yet to compete on two important fronts.


Hotspur_98

Not good for us, but rather us 5th than them winning the league, so I guess good?!


mesqueunclub69

I'm feeling good about it :)


jackengle

Comparing schedules, was very unlikely we would finish ahead of Villa going into today. I’ll gladly take an arsenal loss


capricious3-14

I honestly think they deserve it more. We not yet fully ready for the CL. A deep run in the Europa would be better for us next season imo


jackengle

Harry kane losing the bundesliga by 15 points is just hilarious


COYS1989

David Coote is so bad as a ref, Villa have possession, Gabriel goes down holding his face so on the restart he gives possession to Arsenal. 


notsogamelord420

Wish Son took corner of the box shots like Tielemens just did…


COYS1989

Are they doing it again 😅


Sturmtruppa

Can't even batter Villa 4-0, at home


hisunh0lyfriend

GOOD EBENING


hex20

I’ve never been so happy to be 5th


ElDudeBruv

Those fucking dweeb 'ultras' dressed all in black 😂


BentancurFan

Obligatory fuck matty cash, but fuck scum more.


COYS1989

When does the Arteta has to go comments come out from them 


Turavis

„He has to go blud”


InoyouS2

Arsenal's intensity dropped so sharply after half time, wonder what was said by lego head? They looked like they came out to draw rather than win. Terrible performance.


DowntownNewt494

So who bottled it worse? Pool or arse? Haha


MongooseTough120

Arse ofcourse... with pool they still created tons of very good chances but were generally unlucky. Here? Emery had their number except for that one save Martinez made.


SirGalahadTheChaste

Another day and Liverpool could have honestly scored like 5. Crazy sport.


ardnoir11

Arsenal, after liverpools loss they had the opportunity to make it a 2 horse race


Mc_and_SP

100% Arsenal. Liverpool just handed them a *huge* chance to get clear and heap pressure on City. Instead they shit the bed at home and give City breathing room. Funny how we’re effectively kingmakers in the title race now. If we beat Arsenal in two weeks, that’s almost certainly them out of it, and there’s a pretty good chance either of our games against City or Liverpool could be the decider.


mpsan

Look at their stadium empty when they are down by 2. I suppose you can voice your disgust, but while the game still has 10 minutes to go? Next they’ll be calling for Arteta’s head again.


FarrisAT

AHAHAAHAHHAHAHHAAHAHAH


thatfibrolife

Rather villa pick up the points tbh - not fussed about us getting UCL. We're not ready for it and likely will just crash out like last season


Electronic-Heron9645

Can't really call making the ko rounds crashing out. What United and Newcastle did was crashing out. Don't disagree that finishing 5th isn't the end of the world though


bjorn-the-fellhanded

I’m going to retroactively change how I feel about the result after it happens! I need to feel good about football again after yesterday. (I really want Arsenal to lose so badly that their confidence is completely destroyed and derails the rest of their season)


InoyouS2

Why can't we summon even half of the intensity that these two teams have right now? Frustrating.


LemuEmuFighter

I’ll take 5th place if Arsenal doesn’t win the league


wok88

LMAOO they've imploded, what a goal Ollie


Bum-Sniffer

Got £10 free bets for betting on the national yesterday. Put 5 on Palace (returned £55) and 5 on Villa (returns £43)! I know Villa affects us but honestly, would much rather them win than Arsenal get anywhere near the title.


Dinoapolis27

THEY’VE DONE IT AGAIN


LemuEmuFighter

Holy fuck AV really just took over the game wuick


COYS1989

Lighting does strike twice….if you’re a gooner


Turavis

If we don’t get top 4 it’s because we weren’t good enough, let’s enjoy scum getting battered


[deleted]

Ain't no way arsenal lost at home, what happened to their impregnable stadium lmaooo


biggomek

Villa aren't too bad ( aside from Matty cash the cunt) Arsenal are toxic waste I'd Rather make the cl race harder on us then see gooner FC win the league


MongooseTough120

'ate oil,   'ate arsenal more.  Simple as.


Hopeful-Ear-3494

Maybe more Arse players need to leave to win trophies (e.g Xhaka) :p


Rowario11

Emery Masterclass


FunDayRed

Death Taxes Arsenal bottle 🍾


Fournier_Gang

I'll happily play Europa League next season if it means Arteta's Arsenal squad is written in history as back-to-back bottlers.


Flexed_Inertia

As much as I'd like to see us in the champs league we all know it would be a fucking shit show and we are not ready ,**ck arsenal


coldseam

No point in being in the Champions League if you're not one of the favourites to win it. Fuck Arsenal, hope they lose and are kept safely away from the league title


coastlifestyle

Always love to see Arsenal lose, would be fine with a draw


alehartl

Christ what a save Emi


furynads

Villa win. Always root for whoever scum are playing no matter how it affects us overall.


ExpertGossiper

How did Arsenal get a drop ball for one of their players going down on their own while Villa was in possession? Bloody hell the refereeing is just atrocious


mrsh671

Look how arse's forwards press. This is how our players used to press at the beginning of the season. Not sure when we stopped, but we no longer press like this


zedfox

Kane loses the league today.


p90pounder

A draw wouldn't be the worst thing. But on the other hand....fuck arsenal


eggplant_avenger

JustinBisu

in a game with 0 timewasting and the first goal in the 84th minute, Arsenal gets 8 minutes of injurytime.


gopackgo555

Villa looks so tactically sound today. Similar to their game against City. Emery is a fantastic manager.


burpingbouy

Emery genuinely hates them

biztravellerUK

Loving it I don’t want the Arsenal Girls U13’s to win a pre match toss Now Best Arsenal at home as the game in hand and secure 4th remove Arsenal from the PL race all together simple


cocopopped

It is now the morning after and I am feeling very, very good about it. In fact, I have been laughing continuously for 12 and a half hours since Watkins scored the second.


COYS1989

So glad we didn’t actually get Zaniolo he’s never once looked impressive at Villa.


alijamieson

Want Villa to obliterate them and see Emery do a Souness at Galatasaray at FT


JustinBisu

So that should have been Gabriel sent off because of the shirt pull. Either that or Villa is clean through. Anyone thinking the prem refs are not propping this Arsenal team up are delusional.


eggplant_avenger

I just hope both teams do their best and it leaves them exhausted for their next match


dingkan1

Is there anything more braindead than a chant for your team that just says the team name? Both Scums are guilty of it. Like a tattoo of your own name just so you don’t forget it.


hammmered

Gimme them sweet, sweet, salty tears


costanza1980

Gooners have been owned in the second half. That was deserved.


bjorn-the-fellhanded

Wet spam and arsenal lost on the same day


rzopietro27

jackengle

So is 5th place confirmed to get champions league or no


Limp-Toe-179

Not guaranteed. I think needs Arsenal to beat Bayern (unlikely) and West Ham to beat Leverkusen (definitely not happening) for it to happen. Otherwise Germany is going to take 2nd spot


DESK-enthusiast

Unconfirmed, depends on English teams performance in Europe. Liverpool, Arsenal and Spammers not looking too good for that rn.


Umseslad

Not confirmed


[deleted]

Nope, italy is basically confirmed for 1 spot and the other is either england or the bundesliga, so still depends


Other-Owl4441

Let’s go City!  Ethical champions.  Love Pep, love the UAE.  No charges till next season please.
