The Optimistic Thread

Just need to hang in there, there's twists and turns yet

(mumbles favourable comparison, via a vis Villa)

 

[roydo]

well said mate ...and 'great' can be an adverb as well

Haha! I do a cryptic crossword in the Telegraph, EVERY DAY, ffs, and still dont have a clue!!

Don't count on Arsenal dropping points but count on us winning the last games of the season.

... In Moyes' tenth season.



... In Martinez's first season.

We finished 5th a few times under Moyes and even 4th.

I'm optimistic coz I always feel the longer a winning streak goes on the sooner it's going to end (if you know what I mean). This means we can start another long winning streak on Saturday. Arsenal will defo drop points between now and the end of the season. It feels 'great' to be in the mix at this stage of the season.

We go into the next two home games like a snarling yard dog, I hope.

Seriously though, the best thing I have found for accessing arcane niches of the brain's lateral thinking (cryptic crossword) computing powers is 100mgs every second day of the amino acid phenylalanine . It converts to dopamine in the old grey matter....then again, it may just be placebo lol

Its a daily thing for me. 5.00pm, every evening. Sad really. Actually visit a crossword forum for hints and that.

Quite often "Everton" crops up in a clue!

From what I'm seeing Arsenal haven't won four straight games overall since January. Ramsey isn't 100% yet and I think this Arsenal side somehow isn't as good as it was last season. Three wins and a draw from us will make it interesting.
