I'd probably have Manning as "most improved player", which is unusual for a 29 year old but he has definitely been good this season - although it probably helps that he has had another good left back challenging him for the spot. Welington's injury could have spelled trouble for our season but thankfully Manning stepped up, and has shown he can take a decent free kick too. There are still flaws in his game defensively, there always will be which is why he's a Championship level full back at best, but he has truly had a good season.

Adam and Jo went with Ryan Manning which I thought was interesting for a guy who (fairly) copped a lot of flak at the start of the season. 43 appearances and 8 goals. For me it's Jander - the team just plays better when he is in it in my opinion.

Difficult decision. Obvious choices include Scienza and Peretz. Surprise most improved standout player for me is Jander - just been dominant in a box-to-box type midfield role. THB has seen an improved Captains ability, although he has some inconsistent moments in his pass completions. Azaz has proved he can be great, but equally a lack of consistency is a concern (would be a major concern at Prem level). Overall: Peretz.

Ramsdale would go - but having Ramsdale and Peretz as our two keepers (hypothetically) would have to be one of our best GK pairings in our recent history. With Baz as a third.... OK no.

We should approach the game in same way we have been approaching the last 19 league games. We have no reason to fear the opposition but at the same time we should certainly respect them and never be complacent. From what I've seen in those 19 games, I'm confident that Tonda and the team picked will make sure that is the case.

I’m pretty confident Ramsdale will be shifted on. He won’t want to be here.

I was pleased to see it confirmed. I wasn’t sure we’d want him and ramsdale if we went up, and we will have Ramsdale unless we can shift him, which I though might mean it’s not good news for holding on to Peretz.

Well we have won 8 out of our last ten games the two draws you mention being either side of the city cup tie which we can kinda put down to having a eye on that and fatigue for Ipswich . We pretty have much have been tearing up the league

Yep. We have the option, and he's been brilliant. Of course we'll sign him if we go up. The question is whether we'll sign him if we don't. We should absolutely be looking to secure the Larin and Peretz signings if we stay in the League, then hope we don't lose too many of the other gems. Baz can be his back up. No? Ok, no.

This time, unlike with your JWP comment, you are right. 👏👏👏 😇

Congratulations to Wu Yize. What a talent.

It’s a bit of a non news story. We can all see and predict what’ll happen if we get promoted. Just easy clicks for most journos nowadays.

That would be hilarious. Nice to see Dibling contribute to the equ…. Oh yeah, bench warming again.

Agreed. Boro should be going into the game worried about our form. Not the other way around.

He's not.

If Arsenal are going to slip up, it will be the West Ham one which is awkward due to their position.

Yep, Guardiola muted celebration of the equaliser says it all. Very much Arsenal's to lose (again!) especially as they currently have GD advantage too.

West Ham, Burnley and Palace to go for them - can’t see anything but 9 points. City still have to go to Bournemouth and could easily drop more points there. Think that’s it as far as the title race goes. Where’s that Man City fan that was drinking out of the Arsenal bottle tonight I wonder 😂

Advantage Arsenal

Now that equaliser was Azaz-esque!!

Late equaliser, but still an outstanding evening for Arsenal.

Like us 3 down at Leicester HT! Someone posted on here they left that one early and missed all 4 goals in 2nd half (sorry mate whoever it was 🙂)

I follow Hibs. Hearts will feck it up!

Love those pictures of the City fans leaving as Haaland does what Haaland does. Never leave early Bet the Arse Al fans are enjoying this.
