    Given we've lost three nailed on starters we've coped incredibly well, especially when you consider the panic sweeping through the ranks of Arsenal fans a month or so ago. No-one has consistency in the league and there is no reason to think anyone is going to find it this season given how far into it we are now. I don't see a problem with that fixture list apart from Stoke - Liverpool are average, Chelsea are shit, Southampton we will do at home, Bournemouth is not a game we should be concerned about beforehand, Leceister will have woken up by then to reality and Man Utd are average too. Of course we won't win them all but I don't look at that list and feel worried. We can scrape a win against Bournemouth and batter Stoke away for all we know but given the level of the league as a whole, there is no point looking at the previous reputations of these clubs as anything meaningful.

    Dein Machine is being honest! That was a dreadful performance. With this team, we will get spit roasted at Anfield, OT and Shite Hart Lane. We need to buy, or City or the Scum will win the league. The latter being unthinkable😟

    So you think we need more options than what we have to beat a bottom 3 team!
    If your right it's down to a weak squad - who's fault is that?

    Liverpool do tend to save their best performances for the big (in status and previous reputation) teams, so they'll probably be the biggest test.

    And yes, buy, buy, buy is the answer. As United, Liverpool and Citeh are showing currently.

    It would be useful having reliable, non-brittle options as cover for our crocks, but it's the mentality going into the game that's the biggest hurdle. It won't always come off, but starting the matches aggressively and positively generally pays off. Or having a clear gameplan and sticking to it from back to front as we did against Citeh. We just created about 4000 chances against Bournemouth on Monday and then played like drunkards today. Sometimes, you can acknowledge the opposition's hard work in stopping your team playing well, but with Arsenal it does usually seem to be about the mentality and attitude. We rarely play well when we start sluggishly.

    Anyway, Tony Gale .

    Yes because all of those teams are giants of the league this year right?

    Because it is pissing down - as real as how piss poor we were today. You can already see how these performances have cost us at least 10 points in winable games recently - today very lucky that another couple of points weren't dropped. I'd ever a new signing was needed to give us more options it's now - until we can get rid of Inspector Clueless that is.

    As you can see, the majestic Man City are doing far better than ourselves. We've done appallingly to get to this position. Everyone else has been so much better.

    For some reason, every cunt that was supposed to be better than us. Every manager. Every multi-million pound cunt. Every whizz kid we should have bought, every wrong turn.....has us top of the league.

    We're NOT great, but we are top, and that makes us better than anyone else at this point in time. And I take great fucking pleasure in it. Because we are, fuckin top!

    The manager now needs to make sure we stay there.

    Buy a couple of players to breed confidence, and add quality. It is a big thing for the squad to know we have extra man powe when it comes to the final few months.

    So far, it's not been pretty. But we're top. Top of the league.

    Ours to lose.

    Come on the arse.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    City 1-0 down to Watford, it really is there for the taking this season. Didn't see game today but important 3 points. Need Alexis back asap and hopefully Coquelin too.
