So we need to win and have either a Middlesbrough result or a Man City loss/Win from us that equals 6 in goal differential for us

It makes too much sense so Wenger will never do it

Would it not be great if all of Pickfords save cost us a top 4 spot and got Wenger fired. We would all be in his debt forever lol

The Man City thing happening is virtually impossible.

Bottom line, we need to beat Everton and Pool needs not to win against Boro.

You never know which Arsenal team will show up and I believe we beat Everton handily. Now Pool getting less than three against Boro is unlikely, but we put ourselves in the position where our destiny rests with others.

Yeah except Wenger would have to fire himself. Stan and Gazidis would never have the balls for that.

Funnily enough if we beat Everton we'd end up on 75 points with a shot at an FA Cup win over Chelsea. Which in the last ten years would be a top 3 season for Arsenal

Just saw the title change.

If Arsene announces next season is his final one as manager and the club goes into post-Arsene planning, and we sign Alexis longterm:

I will be jumping-up-and-down-happy and consider this a successful summer offseason no matter who else we lose.

Sanchez has been playing his arse of last few games. Auditioning for someone for sure probably with a Spanish sounding name. Lol

Both Manchester teams are rumored to be making big off season signing. Even some ridiculous Messi rumors.

I hope we are ready to spend some money

Apparently Alisher Usmanov attempted to buy Stan Kroenke’s stake in Arsenal, but Kroenke turned it down.

Yeah, I don't know that I want Usmanov owning Arsenal. He's shady as all hell.

Kroenke is entirely unambitious but I don't know that he holds the club back as much as declines to push it forward.

Usmanov could push us forward like Abromavic but I really hesitate to tie myself to him.

I'm torn. He's apparently a scumbag. But he's a scumbag who wants trophies.

I wonder if some of this is playing a significant role in Wenger's future as well. No idea what he thinks of Usmanov or vice-versa, but maybe his long delay in announcing a decision is due to something like this.

Apparently if we tie and Liverpool loses 2-0 (Or something like that) there can exactly be a one shot playoff game.

It's really going to suck if Liverpool stays on top that we lost Kos for the cup final in a meaningless game. That would be the rule right? So, he would miss the final and the first two games next season?
