It's a sombre mood on one side of The Grove the morning after the night before Arsenal drew 0-0 with Man City. Mos is back, and joined by Tabs and Whale who each have their own opinions on taking a point at the Etihad. Did we miss a chance to go top? Or was a point well deserved? Should Gabriel Jesus change his name by deed poll to include 'BCM' in the middle? The boys hash it out, and remember, at the end of the day it's not about the destination but the journey instead! COME ON...
