While all eyes are on Chelsea and Man United...
Surely only a fool would write off Arsenal from winning the premiership...
And perhaps after several years of some of the best played football in the league, it would be just reward? |

The league is very open this season and still a number of teams could win if utd and Chelsea slip up ,Today we could be 5 points clear or one point behind thats how close the league is this year .

After watching Arsenal a few times this season, i'd be very concerned if i were a Chelsea or Man Utd fan...

When the gooners sold T Henry everyone wrote the gooners off. I had hoped at the time Mr Adebayor would be shown the door as well but it wasn't to be. When Adebayor was finally sold the predictions of doom & gloom were everywhere.
Me I just mocked Man Citys big spend policy & was toll wait & see , you will learn ... well.... How is that big sped policy working for Man C? sooo many draws agains lower teams & a win against run of play against the gooners  ... but I digress.....Without Adebayor & T Henry a few of the decent youngsters have come through & started to shine. There is a better unity in the team without the "big stars" displaying their egos & goals are being scored from more than just the recognised front men. Liverpool's form is woeful & Man U have ridden some luck recently Chelsea have 2 up front that are clicking & getting goals & it will be interesting to see if that form continues if Anelka or Drogba get injured. Man City are stuttering on draws & look to me fragile in midfield. As pointed out , one goal made the change from 2 point lead to 5 point lead though Arsenal have a game in hand. Granted that game has to be won to cut the gap to one games result making a change at the top. Can the gooners win the league this year ? I think so if they stay injury free, but then I will also say that of Chelsea. Prediction Top 2 Chelsea & Arsenal Man U 3rd 4th Spurs (god that hurt to say) 5th Man C

It's obviously goals that count, but if it was a boxing match the game would have been stopped in Arsenals favour well before the 70th minute...to save city further punishment

So they thrashed us to a 1-4 deficit?
I was there mush.  There was one team who looked most likely to score on the day, and I sat comfortably feeling that it wasn't Arsenal.

We switched off and gifted you the second goal ... and your first had more than a touch of good fortune about it.
