Race for top 4 got VERY interesting over the weekend.
Having said we would finish 6th, I now think we can take 3rd without a problem. Of course, we have previous tendencies to beat the big boys, then screw it up with a dumb performance against the lesser clubs. Yes, we have to play Chelsea still, but both Arsenal & Chelsea have visits to Old Trafford in the next 2 weeks, meaning Spurs could be a few points ahead and in control. Effectively Spurs could be a point ahead of Arsenal by next Monday morning and still have the game in hand. Looking at their remaining games, I see them picking up 7 of 12 points (lose at United, beat QPR & Wigan, draw at Newcastle). Chelsea - I would say between 8 & 10 points (beat Swansea & Everton, draw with Everton, lose to United - draw or beat Spurs). Spurs - 10/11 points (beat Wigan, Southampton & Sunderland, draw with Stoke, lose/draw at Chelsea) Based on that, looks like Thursday night football for the Gooners..... fingers crossed!!! |

You think the guy wakes up in the morning and says - right, what crazy move will I be doing today? Hahah...anyway, I think the whole incident is a bit blown out of proportion. Certainly, there are other players who have actually done properly violent stuff and got away. A bite is mildly innocent, it's just the 'weirdness' of it that makes is so extra-ordinary. 1 game ban should be enough but I suspect it will be longer. |

He bit Otman Bakkal a few years back. |

Can't see how he can have anything less than a 5 match ban (and that's being lenient). People are comparing to when Defoe bit Mascherano a few years back, but at that time the incident was seen and Defoe was booked, so no further action could be taken. This time the incident evidently wasn't seen by the ref, so the FA can (and should) throw the book at him. It was like watching a 3 year old at nursery school take out his anger on another child - something you kind of expect at that age, but never condone. To see a professional footballer do it!?!? Ridiculous..... |

Just ban him for next week. I fear what he may do to Newcastle (in a playing sense, not violent)
