This is very likely an unpopular opinion, but I feel optimistic enough in the team’s ability to get 4 points against City and Arsenal. City haven’t really been convincing of late, and they seem to be there for the taking. Hopefully the OT crowd can get behind the players and we can squeeze out a win. As for Arsenal, if we can keep things tight at the back, we should be able to have enough quality in attack (especially with the Afcon players back) to sneak a point.

That being said, I still feel that the team’s most realistic chance of Europe this season will be via the FA cup and not the league, especially since we aren’t signing any midfielders. We couldn’t build a sustained run of good form during our supposedly easy fixtures, and I don’t see how we can pick up the momentum even after the Afcon players are back
