arsenal? really? i dont think they will finish 4th not a good enough all around team to finish top



I agree, no depth whatsoever. Great starting team but they can't play their football against better then average teams such as Chelsea, Everton etc.


I honestly it will be between Chelsea, Man City and Man Utd. The title race starts tomorrow for me, if Chelsea can gather a good string of form together I don't believe anyone will catch us, we haven't got the best team but tactically were miles ahead.


Merry Christmas everyone have a good day xx
yeah exactly like chelsea they need a better striker yes giroud has scored quite a few this season but they were all given to him on a plate chelsea or city to win in mos likely city for me unless chelsea spend in january but have a good christmas mate, cheeky kisses xx


I agree to a certain extent. Arsenal have been top until Monday. They beat Liverpool, the current top team. They proved they can cope with big teams, on Monday against Chelsea. The only team I see beating Arsenal from now is Manchester City.


Both Arsenal and Liverpool have had it easy so far and they've hit their highest form, teams will find it easier to to play against then as they are now more predictable, they don't have a plan B. I wouldn't say they coped on Monday, they couldn't play football like I said tactically Chelsea were miles ahead

If teams like Utd, City or Chelsea can string together a big win streak(which they could) they will cruise through to the end. I don't know why people are writing Utd of btw. It will more then likely be City in my eyes, Chelsea would need to send atleast 100M to keep up with City's firepower.

How have we had it easy? Your team came to the Emirates looking for a draw. Title winners don't go for a draw. Players are coming back from injury and our bench will be full of super subs.

Didact wrote Our game against Man City tomorrow and Chelsea shortly after will show whether we are true top 4 (Title if you say so) contenders. What worries me the most is that City are unbelievable at home. As for the result against City, i am not even attempting to guess it.






Merry Christmas fellow football lovers!



It really could go either way, like you said City are unbelievable at home but Liverpool are so explosive on he counter, it sure will be a Boxing Day classic that will provide goals.

Might put a cheeky punt on 4.5 goals +

We didn't go looking for a draw we set up not to lose, if your theory was correct, you could easily say the same for Arsenal, we set up to counter attack and Arsenal knew that. Yet they virtually did nothing all game the likes of Ozil and Walcott etc got outclassed by Ramires and Azpilicueta etc.

Serious title winners don't get dominated at home, creating 1 shot on target in the 85 min. Chelsea should have easily won with the chances we created, the truth is Arsenal didn't open the game. I understand you think Arsenal will win it because you support them but his has happened so many times, you've played your best football already, teams will start predicting how you set up where as City and Chelsea virtually rotate their squad every game.

Depending on how much we'll have to pay for a world class striker, I don't think we'll need to spend over 100 million, if you look at out attacking mid-fielders they are all world class and Schurrle can easily become world class very soon, and remember we have very young attacking mids, (Hazard is 22, Mata and willian both 25, Oscar is 22, Schurrle is 23) and then we can spend to strengthen our defensive mid and remember Mikel and Ramires are both only 26 years old, if Luiz stays he's only 26.
With the squad we have and buying some new players in either Janaury or the summer, we can strengthen further.

I agree with you. This season, I don't think Chelsea will win. 2nd is where I think they will come. Arsenal however, NEED to sign a decent striker in January to link with Ozil.

guaruntee is a strong word, especially for a team with such a weak squad. You probably have one of the best starting 11's at the moment, but there is very little depth in your squad. If you do manage to go AWAY from home at Chelsea and get a victory and then go AWAY from home to beat City aswell (who have been almost invinvible at home at the moment), only then will I even consider them to be title contenders. They just don't have the squad yet in my opinion and I highly doubt you will get very many points from the next two games, let alone win them both
