Re: The 2014-15 EPL Discussion Thread

If any squads deserve spending some time in the purgatory of the championship, it's gotta be Sunderland and Newcastle. They'll probably stay up, but god both clubs owners need a reality check called the Championship...

It's already happened to us under Mike Ashley...it didn't change a thing. We still have the same starting CB pairing now that we had back in the Championship in '09. Colo and Williamson. Coloccini played well on Saturday but it was a rare good performance in a season of floundering. Williamson being suspended for two games was the best thing that could happen. Absolutely despised by fans here.

A win against QPR is a must and at least a draw v West Ham in our final game as I see Hull beating Spurs next weekend and they'll give Man United a good game on the final day...

A season down there is no more than the club deserve. Fans don't deserve it but the players have massively underperformed. Sissoko has gotten so lazy since trying to force a move in January. If he really wants a "big club" move, then he should be putting in massive performances. Can honestly say if it wasn't for Cisse, Janmaat and Jack Colback, who have all had some stormers this season for us to get us vital points, we'd be bottom by a mile.

Felt like playing Chelsea again, what a borefest.

I'm guessing it's what Villa will do against us, so we better be ready to cope with it. I mean, I'd like to think they'll attack and leave themselves open, but I don't see that happening.

Counterattacking is still attacking, so yes Villa will attack you guys.

I would imagine that Tim Sherwood is not afraid to attack.

Whether he should be or not is a different story. Our backline has been up and down since he took over, but Sherwood does not lack confidence in his attack. And he shouldn't, since Villa is the 3rd highest scoring team in the EPL since he took over.

It should be a good game. To win an FA Cup this year would be nothing short of incredible, now that we are pretty firmly safe.

Oh, you. You know what I meant.

I don't expect to see them worrying about only having 30% of possession, how about that?

The main point is that we better finish the chances we're given, as opposed to neatly jabbing them at Shay Given.

Villa on current form represent all things Arsenal struggle against:

-Counters

-Large, pacy, and strong center forwards

-Goals from crosses

-Narrow defenses who sit back

Should definitely be an entertaining game.

Holy ****!!! 5-1 in one half.... Villa's backline imploded on its self.

Well done to Leicester,they are safe! Any team getting 19 out of their last possible 24 points deserve to stay in this division. 5 clean sheets in the last 6 games to boot. An unbelievable last 2 months for the Foxes.
