It’s an outstanding goal once they’ve got possession from Watford.

Can't see it staying at 2-1, both teams look capable of scoring every time they attack.

Arteta slowly moulding Arsenal into top 4 contenders again with a young side and playing superb football.

3 from 4 going down and Watford are one of them so guess we have to cling on to hoping they lose.

Hopefully, that's Watford out of this game.

The goals are outstanding but surprised nothing is said about Arteta going down the touchline to act as ball boy.

Norwich are finished for me. Between us and Leeds I think.

Don't count Everton out of it.
Things can change by the game.

Yep. It's 3 from Burnley, Norwich, Leeds, Watford.

The thing is - I can't see Leeds going down.

Think Everton will be fine, but stranger things have happened. Just hope Arsenal don't muck this up. Well on top and feel they'll get another at this rate.

To be honest for me it's not if we go down, it's what we do next season to get back up. We haven't done enough to deserve to stay up, so I'm wondering who we keep, who goes etc.

We've never called Arsenal or their fans anything other then the best of the best on The Bee Hole End.

Not Brentford? They’ve got a pretty tough run of fixtures after our game which makes a win for us even more important. Win and we go 3 points behind them with 2 games in hand.

Brentford stay up if they avoid defeat against us. Which I think they will, so not counting them.

I would say that Brentford getting 3 points would be better for their survival prospects

Dennis has had some chances and missed them.
Is he an overrated striker ?

Seen as though he’s in the top 5 in the league for goal contributions this season for a poor relegation fodder team I’d say no he’s not

Probably 7 mins left inc. added time. Watford's next 3 fixtures are away so a defeat here is serious for them. Come on Arsenal...

What happened to the 6 second rule with keepers having the ball? Throughout added time Ramsdale had the ball for 10+ seconds each time he had it.

Roy Hodgson was looking sideways at Arteta at the end.....as if to say what a bell-end!
And he's right!

Well at least Leeds, Norwich & Watford failed to pick up points this weekend, so our defeat to Chelsea wasn't as damaging as we might have feared,

It's looking increasingly grim for Norwich & Watford, so we just have to finish above one other, who is the big question, I've a feeling Everton will have enough to survive, so for me it's between us, Brentford & Leeds.

I might have to agree with you, but only if we win on Saturday, 3 points from our trip to London, and the cat really would be amongst the pigeons.

Everton getting a 1st half tonking has certainly given me renewed hope, and their away record is the worst in the PL, just 6 points gained on their travels, they've been pretty solid at Goodison as a rule, but with such dreadful form on the road it doesn't half pile the pressure on their home games.
