The game, as it wore down, really was exciting, edge-of-your-seat-stuff. Arsenal looked like they would get a winning goal, but didn't.
The match commentators were using a really obnoxious recurring theme about Arsenal surrendering the title if they didn't win the game. British commentary is normally a qualitative step forward from American commentary, but today's commentators had one to forget. Assuming United don't implode, the title is long since lost. If United do completely implode, then the title is not necessarily lost. Having commentators sharing their perceived talent for probability-based prognostication and/or psychic prediction, as a means of imparting a sense of excitement to the game, is not just unnecessary, it's embarrassing.
Arsenal are not playing like a title-winning side; they need to score many more goals.
