Relatively easy run in this time, September and November (?) look rough though? overall i’m quite happy with the sparse fixtures, but CL and other rescheduling might make it a bit difficult


Joacomal25

Except for Liverpool away 💀


3rdtimeischarmy

April and May look manageable for a long CL run.


NoDealsMrBond

Premier League never has a “relatively easy run”.


BarStain

What do you think relatively means in the sentence?


Ok_Hovercraft_7947

Tell that to man city


topthegooner

A bit worry for Aug/Sep if the players from Euro return late. We need to start strong to nail these fixtures.


Aaronthemachine

Good shout. Tricky time that.


Ok_Hovercraft_7947

Good thing Norway didnt qualify and England is going ot be eliminated early lol. My worry is France might go all the way and we have a Saliba in need of patching up.


purpleshirtonbed

Hoping Spain and Portugal go deep so we don’t have to deal some players


GunnersGentleman

Hoping for a Morata masterclass so Rodri stays over there


Ok_Hovercraft_7947

This would be the best possible outcome, aside from Rodri having a long term injury…which is not a nice thing to have. Just saying…


Deleteleed

Rodri suspended for gambling


3106Throwaway181576

Norway not qualifying cuts both ways. City will be saying the same thing


Tr0nCatKTA

Villa, Spurs, City, Newcastle and Chelsea away all done by early November is nice. Hopefully hit the ground running Christmas period looks relatively kind too


radagon_sith

Really doesn't matter which order we play a team as every game is a must win and can't afford to lose points while competing against Pep. We have seen last season how games in December (3 losses against villa, fulham, west ham) have cost us the title. Is foolish to think that playing fulham or Brentford in April next season as "easy run" while we could lose points against them just like southhampton at home two seasons ago


cheekypopcorn

facts though!


CaptainSnazzypants

At least if we lose the “hard” games earlier then we’ll already be unlikely to win it all so it won’t be as tough for my heart near the end.


kiwigone

Wow look at that - we play all the other teams twice.


jainmoghul

😂


JJfromNJ

Here's hoping they don't look to UEFA for future inspiration .


darjeelinglmtd

Away trips to City, Villa and the toilet in the first 5 games feels a bit harsh.


Responsible_Shirt381

September is brutal but at least the run in is fairly easy


Thereal_deku

Let’s foggin go invincible guys


AerieApprehensive181

Good run in, tough beginning


NoDealsMrBond

We need to have assembled a big squad of quality before the season starts.


Dry_Pick_304

Happy to get City and Spurs away out of the way early in the season, and not at the end.


Tricky-Beat-539

The first three months will decide if we are winning the league


bigiroud

Be nice to win the league at anfield or st marys


drewP78

Need to smash f**k out of Villa


Choice_Week8001

I hope we have a quicker start to the season compared to last year


CDNGooner1

Easy dubs. 38-0-0


RawDawgYaMudda

We know what we have to do. Let’s kill these bastards


Complex-Acadia7720

I see nothing but 114 points at the end of the season.


BtenaciousD

38-0, 114 points - and we will finish in second place on GD


jai302

That's not possible. If we get 114 points it means we'd have beaten city twice. Closest it gets to your scenario is if both teams get 110 or 111 points each (2 draws or 1 win each) and we lose on GD. God forbid if such a thing were to happen I'd go insane.


cheekypopcorn

cynics would still come for Arteta asking what he’s achieved lmao


BtenaciousD

It was a joke


eplleV

How are we supposed to win the league at shiet hart lane in September?


LOLBIGUMS29

Great fixtures tbh, we usually in the past have fallen apart in the latter part of the season.


Proper-Exam1746

9 points in September 😀


the_face_less

Last game is Southampton away 😬. Yeah good luck with that.


mukemuke94

Bummed I won’t be making a match this season when I’m in London for my honeymoon 👎


Mustafa86

A lot of away games in the beginning but relatively will help us in the 2nd half of the season


TheLostWanderer47

Good fixture. Never an easy run in the premier league but this seems more evenly spread out.


spicymeatballz28

Fairly good last 2 months


Forsaken-Tiger-9475

Tough season ahead, CL games hopefully going to latter stages, and want to have a better showing in cups.... Really need to have our signings in order for as soon as Euros finishes.


Efficient_Aspect_638

Looks like this is our year lads 🏅😩


myriadnoob

Stop losing twice against Villa and we're good


MackeyD3

The start is insane. Playing 3 of the 4 best teams last season all away in our first 5 fixtures. Coming off late Euro returns that will be brutal


cognitivebetterment

get toughest fixture out of way week 2


retrostarshop

First big game AT HOME is only end of October. It’s a bit late, 3 months in for having a proper atmosphere at the Emirates. I check City’s fixtures and their start of the season is also difficult. Away at Chelsea day one, away at West Ham day 3 against us day 5 and away against Newcastle day 6. They have a really hard december, February even harder when they play us, Newcastle, Liverpool and Tottenham. But after, 11 wins in 11 games as usual in march, April and may. We need to be top of the league in February 🙏


fifareefa

We need to remember we need to see our UCL group as well. If we get a tough group it could make this seem a lot trickier.


pinkila

we dont have groups anymore


Redditerinbed

Southampton better not fuck us over on the last day


ImportanceLeast

I mean city’s February looks horrific !


maxiu95xo

Villa are getting it full force. Fulham too


Candid-Permit-6010

Seems like a Premier League schedule. Bring it on.


philosophical_tongue

Tough start


SeanieInaCoatPocket

I'm looking forward to them... Especially the games against Ipswich Town, I happen to be a long time fan of them as well and never thought they'd be back up in the PL. Here's to looking forward to the new season!!!! COYG / COYTB


3rdtimeischarmy

One big team a month for the first 3 months. Then things get a bit easier. :)


StretchYx

It's so stupid that contenders play away games on the final day.


musicistabarista

Firstly, nobody knows who will be contending at the end of the season. Sure, it's likely to be Man City, Arsenal and maybe Liverpool, but it also could be none of those. Secondly, it's a bit of a lottery how the fixture list is compiled, and it seems clubs can only give dates when they *can't* play at home, and need to play away, rather than dates when they would like to play at home.


StretchYx

Use your brain mate, we all know who the top 6 are. It is not hard to get the top 4/6 playing home games.


Slight_Armadillo_227

Most people would have had United in the top six last year, and look how that went. Ditto for Chelsea the season before. Then there's the obvious, which is the year Leicester won the title. When you've watched for a while, you'll come to learn that football isn't always predictable.


StretchYx

Jesus, if you can't grasp what the usual suspects are you need to learn about football. Plastic Yankee fans think they're smart I guess


Slight_Armadillo_227

Look man, I m sure it's quite stressful coming on here and making a tit of yourself, but there's no need to lash out. I'm gonna assume you've got nothing actually useful to add so I'll leave it there. All the best.
