As far as Arsenal bottling the league, in the words of the Great Ange Postecoglu... "It's just who we are mate."

I posted a few weeks ago that, if given enough time, City would catch Arsenal, but I just didn’t think that they had enough time. Now, they do, especially because they play Arsenal next week.

I know that coaches aren't the most objective observers, and generally advocate for their players. But these comments from Man U.'s Michael Carrick are comical.

Calvin-Lewin did not "throw his arms" in Licha Martinez's face. That's just normal fighting for position. Significantly worse happens on pretty much ever corner kick, and many contested balls in the air.

However, Martinez did grab the hair of Calvin-Lewin, and it wasn't just an incidental/accidental grab. Every ref training and instruction I've ever seen or been a part of (and I've seen more than I care to admit), that is ALWAYS an example of what should be a straight red card.

Good grief, spring has been horrid: Spurs have not won a Premier league game in 111 days and are the only club to not have a win in 2026,
Plus I’m a Phillies fan!😳😫at least I have the Knicks to root for.
