Agreed. Our current points haul would have us challenging for the league every season and is also in keeping with the ridiculous runs Man City and Liverpool have had in recent years. So I don’t believe the form of others has had much to do with it, we’ve been incredibly good bar the Leeds game which I think we can all agree we were lucky to win.
However granted, things can turn very quickly and this week is one of those moments. United could be 3 points behind us by Sunday evening and then suddenly there’s a very different feel about things.
No doubt this team has earned more trust than any Arsenal side has over the past 10-15 years though. So it’s not a given that mistakes of the past will come back to haunt us. We’re playing better than we ever have done but most importantly winning a lot of games that we previously wouldn’t have.
Yep - although United will be six points behind us if they beat us
