    I can only go 4 - Rambo, Merts, Kos & Sir Ches, for me they are the only ones with consistency - certainly not Giroud, what are some of you smoking.

    Ramsey
    Koscielny
    Mertesacker
    Sagna
    Szczesny

    But pretty much everyone has been stepping up at some stage which is great.

    Yep, with the added bonus that our attack can get better. We'd have fallen apart against Villa a few seasons ago. When teams used to put that sort of pressure on us, we'd fold.

    Don't think the Invincibles would have sat back on a 2-0 lead against a pub team. They would have smelt blood & Titi would be looking for a hat-full - thats the difference

    We've actually scored 1 more goal than the Invincibles had at this stage.
    It's a common misconception that team battered teams left, right and centre but they didn't.
    14 of the 26 wins were by the odd goal.

    You said it yourself….we had Titi then. When you play with a goal hungry striker who just wants nothing else to score, you have to feed him. The Hollywood passing and wastefulness we saw last night wouldn’t have been on.

    Our goal scoring frequency in the Invincibles season, for the record:

    0 - 4
    1 - 10
    2 - 15
    3 - 4
    4 - 4
    5 - 1

    So 29 games out of 38 we scored 2 or fewer.

    Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..

    But did we sit back after the goals? I think that's the main point.

    You're not getting this top five thing are you?
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
