biggest bottle jobs from a title contender ever? What compares to this, Newcastle's gradual implosion under Keegan?

Bit harsh. Man. City on course for 90 + points so it's same as saying Liverpool bottled it last season when they drew once in their final 10 games.

Arsenal been very good but picked up a few injuries and just don't have the experience.

Big problem though is they'll be back in the CL and I can't see them replicating this league form next season, they'll be fighting to stay 4th.

"bottle jobs" is bollocks

They've failed to keep up their record setting pace and been caught by man city, just like other teams in other years man City having £50m players in 3rd choice for every position sees them come good at the end of the year and people are shocked surprised and pissed off that the Premier league "competition" strikes again

Don't be mad at Arsenal, be mad at city at what this league now is

You're right, but it won't feel that way to them. They've been top of the league for something like 240 days, to not win it would be a huge kick in the teeth

southmpton lose to bournemouth mid week and they're still down. they have a chance though

They're a weird team. Taken 8 points off Man. United, Chelsea, Spurs and Arsenal in last two months. Yet lost to West Ham, Brentford, Palace and Leeds without scoring a single goal.

Knowing Selles he'll probably drop half of this team and play likes of Diallo and Lyanco v Bournemouth so you could be right there.

 Certainly in our interests they have a reasonable chance of staying up as late into the season as possible given who they're playing in the run in and their style can cause Liverpool issues for sure.

they've given up 2-0 leads in successive games and are losing easily at home to the league's bottom side. Regardless of respective strength of sides that is choking under pressure however you define it

Just goes to show now the prem has been undermined by Citeh over the last decade. It hasn't been a level playing field and so many clubs have not won titles because Citeh are always playing with two whole teams of superstars. Really is beyond time that Citeh are booted out, the league would be better for it.

Rob Holding would do well to be 4th choice CB for us

I don't think they are choking under pressure I think they're dropping down to their natural level after playing out of their skin for so long, they couldn't keep it up, City can
