It's hypothetical anyway. Taking a draw now isn't actually an option at all - it maybe an outcome we would like, that's all.I answered the question in the spirit of will I be dissapointed if we don't win and "only" get a draw. I will be happy with the point.
Others seem to be answering in the spirit of should we play for a draw or go for the win. Which is a more interesting question.
I imagine we will go with the low block rather than the high press. So less risky but possibly the better strategy given the opposition.
Mr Solo, I see your point at 1 point is not worth the chance of getting 3. why we are not higher is because 1 is so much less than 3. Man city's thing is either winning or losing and mostly not bothering with draws. they have lost 50% more games than us but are 2 points higher.Yeah I didn't mean it like that... what I was trying to say is that the difference between zero and one points isn't enough to sacrifice the chance of getting 3.
but despite what I just said I voted "NO - you unbelievable cretin, we are a winning machine right now and we can DO them." because C'mon 7 in a row!!!!!!Mr Solo, I see your point at 1 point is not worth the chance of getting 3. why we are not higher is because 1 is so much less than 3. Man city's thing is either winning or losing and mostly not bothering with draws. they have lost 50% more games than us but are 2 points higher.
However, mr 93 makes an important point. if by not shaking on the draw in some smokey backroom (which is the only way I see this "would you take a draw" conversation making any sense) we would risk one of our most dangerous rivals in the race for one of realistically 2 remaining CL being either 5 points ahead or 1 point behind. the risk of falling 5 points behind means I would be only see 1 CL spot being in reach.
so what I am clearly saying, is day drinking only makes sense when you have just been put on gardening leave!
Is it IMMINENT?All week I've been hoping the FA don't come out with the verdict on the 115 charges before tomorrow.
We don't want to face an ANGRY Man City.
If the pattern is anything to go by, we should draw 1-1In 7 Prem games at the Etihad, we've never won even a single point;
23/24 L 2-1
22/23 L 3-1
21/22 L 3-0
20/21 L 1-0
19/20 L 4-0
18/19 L 2-0
17/18 L 3-1
So, with it being the last game before a two week breather...would you?
what are you talking about the pattern clearly shows we will be winning 0-15 (at least the pattern I choose to see)If the pattern is anything to go by, we should draw 1-1
Is it IMMINENT?
Nah Arsenal will batter Chelsea 8-0.I read an article this morning, in the Argus I think, saying we “could” go as high as fourth place with a win. I’m optimistic but can’t see us putting 12 past city which is what we would need to do.
