People treating 14th place Crystal Palace like they're Man City now. Pretty sure Villa would have been odds on to get at least a point from that match.
Well you’d have thought wrong. To “lay” the Palace win on the exchanges is 1.9. So Villa “to get at least a point” is longer than evens.
 
The fans can't win. Lose and we have handed Woolwich the title and conversely, we are small time for not wanting to win even though the CL place is in Villa's hands.

Weird when for 90% of the season everyone bangs on about how 4th place is not a trophy.

losing 3-0 to Fulham had more to do with missing out on CL than last nights game.

Think it's more down to the antics in the ground.

Every fan doesn't want their rival to win stuff. But when it's a home game and you see your own supporters celebrating the opponent scoring...it's a little small time.
 

Spurs were not capable of beating city last night. Simple as that. If that was the case then I'd also be pleased if the team we were playing pipped our rivals to the title as a result. I wouldn't celebrate their goals though. But then who made me in charge of how individuals respond in these circumstances?

Yup, this is a Villa side who have done the double over Arsenal this year, beat them at the emirates a few weeks ago which ironically took the title out of Arsenals hands.

I’d of fancied them at Palace if they needed something.
 
Ultimately it’s not up to Spurs to win the title for Arsenal, Arsenal have dropped points on 10 occasions this year. Can’t moan about your rivals not doing you a favour in the penultimate game when you’re lost to West Ham, Fulham, villa twice…
 

I really rate their manager, and fair play to them for managing CL qualification whilst going deep in Europe, but you are right, they have capitalised on terrible seasons for Chelsea and United, so the plaudits seem a stretch. Everything about this tinpot league seems to get hyped up.

Also highlights how terrible a manager a certain Mr Gerrard is as well, shame the rs never went for him post shippmann.
No team has a divine right to be superb every season. ManUre and Chelski didn't deliver over the whole season, so deserve to be where they are. If someone else steps into the void left by those two 'Sky ESL top 6', then great! Long may it continue!
