ChristineC:
because the ball is in your court really. you are playing a direct rival for a chance to go 11 points clear at least. that's not to say you'd get it but you cannot deny the existing advantage.

You're also denying the advantage of Man city having the chance to go 1 point above us with both legs against us too ?

You're also not considering that the season is still long as we're just half way through.

You're just looking at one side of the coin really

LostMyZeal:
Naah, you're wrong

Arsenal knew better than to play that highline they used in the first leg. That's the major difference. Arteta learnt his lessons

I know how many through balls Bruno made to Rashford but Arsenal was already prepared for it (esp Tomi) and it was cleared. He even did the Trivela pass again but it wasn't successful

I wonder how Expert thought that arsenal won't get prepared for that strategy this time

ChristineC:
yes. 5 points with a game less than second club.
two games against the second placed club as well. that's a potential 14-point lead. if that's not a pedestal for trophy launch, I don't know what is.
that's not saying it's a given, but it can be described as bottled if lost.

On the contrary, that's not a pedestal for a trophy launch cos all what you're clearly saying are just potentials and we all know the EPL table deals with facts and results and not with "potentials"

You clearly says it's a potential 14point lead , meaning we don't even have it yet. I don't see how we can bottle something we never had in the first place.

Why don't you wait till the 14point lead or thereabout is certified before saying we bottled anything.

ChristineC:
if Arsenal don't win the league from this point then they bottled it.

5 Points advantage over Man city as at January??

You will call that bottling?

BlueRayDick:
With this Kiwi guy we signed from Spezia , I guess it means we’ve given up on Pablo Mari and will cash-in on him once any suitor comes around at the end of his loan at Monza

Yeah, Monza have an obligation to buy if they don't relegate and with the way things are going, they won't relegate

Jokerman:
Only a crazed man utd fan will think of winning league this season. However Man utd can win next season, when the coach buys good useful players...

This was what I was even thinking if Ten Haag buys right but I guess most people were really carried away by the wins

ChristineC:
for your mind now you don win league right

Lol... Na top 4 dey my mind.

But If League follow among the top 4, then who am I to reject it?

Roland17:
This looks like 1st half own, I need to see that 2nd half one. You get the accumulated one?

That's the accumulated one.

The arrow direction is because arsenal is at home

Lol... Alright

After reading what most of you fans wrote just because Man U lost 3:2 to Arsenal, all I have to say to you is: shame on you!.

This is ETH and Man U's poorest form. The upward curve is only going to get better for him with time.
This is Arteta and Arsenal's best form after so many years.

Don't get carried away with Man U's recent wins, including over Man city.

Man U is still in it's poorest form under ETH. The growth and squad depth has not started.

I feel Arsenal fans should really be worried.
If this disjointed Man U can hold you down to 3:2,..what then happens when Man U is in form?

You made great points and I think most fans were being carried away due to recent wins that they forgot they're still in process.

But then, I don't think any arsenal fan need to be worried about anything. What we wanted to do is to WIN while playing our game and we did all that convincingly. It doesn't matter whether the scoreline is 3 -2 or 3-1 or 4-0.

When Man u will be in form is future tense. Just note that as you're trying to get In form, arsenal and other clubs won't certainly be sleeping too.

iamoyindamola:
Exactly what I was talking about that year if you have vvd and koulibaly with that our midfield way xhaka na DM and jerrycurl na partner why mustafi no go commit murder

Lol... No Man u CB commit murder sha esp Martinez and Varane.... No matter the Midfield combination.

Make we just enjoy our team in peace and forget about dem Jerry curl and Mustafi matter na

As I dey like this, I don forget dem sef

Leyqute:
It’s ironic that non UCL winners feel bold enough to speak up against three time champions.

Naahh... It ain't ironic one bit.

I mean, you aren't a footballer yet you're bold enough to speak up against our Brazilian Poco Lee

Izurejoice:
Zinchenko dey play shaa. Never saw him play like this for man city.

Zinchenko is such a bad guy. Dude just abandoned Antony at his wing to play in the midfield still Antony could not impact the game from his vacant wing

iamoyindamola:
When we tell them midfield is the powerhouse in football them say na defence
With all the scummies fight and energy in defence they eventually lost due to high pressure

Lol... As I see their midfield against ours esp with Mctominay starting, I just deh get hope.

That their defence strong sha but eventually Midfield and attack will always win

Shegzdave:
Only those topping their League table

Just another day to tell you that:

Zinchenko plays for arsenal


How much did we sign him again?

eph12:
There is a debate for everything

Lol... I didn't know before.
Now I know

Lana1:
Not like there was ever any debate but ETH 1 - 0 Arteta. Use ur top of the league hold body...for now

Now... It's 1-1.

And ohh, I still dey use my top of the league hold body... For now

Roland17:
@Jod.era, the Lord is your shepherd as you continue to spread the gospel of pain and anguish.

Na Mctominay own off me pass.

Dem say dem beat us with Mctominay for first leg and without Casemiro. Dem no know say na Lokonga dem jam for first leg not Partey

Kokane, you remembered last week when you showed concern about our team not scoring during the 2nd half recently and I told you that shouldn't be a concern because we've mostly settled the game In the first half?

Hope the team answered your concern ystdy

eph12:
I had to go check if Odegaard was among the goal scorer or assister

Ohh... There's a debate then?

iamoyindamola:
Them say thunder strike down United for Emirates

chrisley024:
Odegaard vs Bruno debate in the mud

Lana1:
Was there ever a debate before.

Is there any debate now or should I mind my business?

The Bermuda Triangle of EPL.

Every EPL opposition midfield get lost once they encounter this 3

Shegzdave:
Saw this on Twitter and decided to share to appreciate Guardiola

What of Ten Haag?

ChristineC... Have you complained today yet??

Mrviktor:
