finally watched. 20 attempts, yeah id say we pretty much dominated. Good all around play from everyone. Bednter scored but also looks rusty out there, def not up to par with girouds touch.

So what's everyone's expectations/hopes for the next 3 epl games? Everton, man city, and chelsea.

Personally 4 points wouldn't be the end of the world, I'd be content with 5, six would make me very happy, 7 would make me ecstatic, and 9 you could basically give us the league medals already.

I think we get six.

Just dont lose and we can stay at the top. Personally 5 would have me believing we can finish this off strong.

btw, 12 pts clear of ManU.


Same amount of points to the relegation zone...

A man can dream..

Rambo with the hockey assist and his best Steve Nash impersination. We are good guys. Finally with some real depth. Only Bayern has a better midfield. Yes, Barca you are third.

We own the best defensive record in the league. Those are words I never thought I would be able to say given our play the past 5 years. Amazing job the coaching staff and the players have done to turn it around.

It is tough when he rarely gets playing time. You can really tell he tired at the end.

I was impressed by Bendtner honestly. he is definitely lacking on the first touch but held up play pretty well, had pretty good vision, wasn't selfish and scored.

yeah he seemed to be sweating like a pig after the first 5 minutes. Just needs some game time.

I'd be ecstatic with six or more.

I'd be happy with five.

Qualify for knockouts next week
Maintain Top of the Table

Whatever that takes in terms of points I'll take.

This all seems to be moot since the Boss is indicating he's perfectly happy with Sanogo in the second striker role.

After getting on the stick and signing Ozil, looks like we're back to resting on our laurels, personnel-wise

I'm ecstatic with what we've done this season so far, but to be a world-power side with depth enough to win the BPL trophy and contend for CL, we need another top-of-the-line striker.

The thought of having to get key, crucial minutes from YS or NB in a CL match makes me uneasy, despite our playmaking ability in midfield and forward.

ohhh. I wouldn't believe anything Arsene says about transfers. it's in our best interest to not seem desperate.

we're fighting hard for barça youngster Sanabria

Agreed. He is working on possibilities. Just have to wait it out.

This team is so much fun to watch.

Sanabria and Gnabry leading the line in a few years?

According to wikipedia Sanabria is also the name of a genus of crickets. the more you learn!

Does anyone know the current odds of Arsenal (and maybe the other top clubs) to win the EPL this season?

I'm very curious but "gambling" websites are banned at work.

we're second favorites behind City.

Bet365 and SkyBet have us at 9/4. City at 6/4.
