01/04/19 | Arsenal 2-0 Newcastle United | Premier League

[Phil71]

We need to play these remaining games aggressively but solid at the back, we can't afford risky slow starts that allow the opponent to get in the game.

We need to destroy everyone.

A good final run could see us hit 3rd and what a debut season achievement that would be.

This run is really on the players, Emery has engineered us this opportunity, the players now have to execute it.

It's such a cliché thing to say, but these last couple months will define Emery's first season in charge. And I'd imagine if we don't get 4th it will cause a big split in the fan base between who wants him to stay or go.

Did any of us really expect us to be in the top four at this stage?

[Ach]

Annoying this is on Monday ffs.

Have it on the weekend evening when I'm not working.

No consideration for fans.

[Rockape]

Nice to have a game to talk about again!

Would be great to get a good win and boost our confidence for the run in. C’mon you Gunners!

[Ach]

Tbf internationals are pretty awesome these days.

I personally had no idea what to expect. Can't speak for anyone else.

Well, I had hopes of course, but no way did I expect us to be in the top four.

I honestly expected a transition season, where we'd plateau, or go down before coming back up.

Man City
Liverpool
Man Utd
Tottenham
Chelsea

Did you EXPECT that we'd finish above any of them?

[DiamondGooner]

I was going to be content with 6th /5th / 4th for his debut.

Most fans at the beginning sensibly said first season is a free one to sort the team out make some signings, then a load of agenda's started popping up and all of a sudden it was Emery needs to win the league otherwise he should be sacked.

So yes he's over performed but that doesn't mean we allow the players to waste this opportunity that Emery has got them in.

The way its panned out for us top 4 is a minimum, when fate hands you your own path to success you can't waste it.

Like I said, I didn't know what to expect. I'm not sure if I made any predictions at the beginning of the season or not.

This is what I was expecting as well. Just a season of highs and lows. I didn't expect us to get wins vs Chelsea spurs united ... That just made it great. Also draw vs Spurs Chelsea united pool as well. All in league games. These are very good results for a first year manager who has a Watford budget.

[alexafc12]

Absolutely a must win game. We can go third with a win

[dc16]

Huge chance at going 3rd.

Hopefully we will be motivated enough to take control of this.

[CrimsonGunner11]

I swear I won’t forgive any player, or person, who destroys this opportunity for us

[Phil71]

Huge game
