The way things are going you should start setting your sights on 4th.We are in good form at the moment. Let's hope we can get back to top 6 and back to Europe next season.

They have had a relatively easy start to the season. Expecting 4th with harder games to come, is setting yourself up for disappointment and unnecessary angst at the manager/club.The way things are going you should start setting your sights on 4th.
I'd love to get these 8 seconds back pleaseTweet

I actually don't rate Arteta at all, but agree with you, our target should be the lesser european spot with a cl spot coming as a welcome surprise. Only negative thing is it kinda lets Arteta off the hook to a certain extent.They have had a relatively easy start to the season. Expecting 4th with harder games to come, is setting yourself up for disappointment and unnecessary angst at the manager/club.
I think a Europa place is a good target for this season, next season a more solid assault for a top 4 place can be due.
I have no idea what easy start you are talking about when i looked at the first 4 games of the season.They have had a relatively easy start to the season. Expecting 4th with harder games to come, is setting yourself up for disappointment and unnecessary angst at the manager/club.

Eh? We're 1/3 of the way into the season, how can one side have had a particularly good or bad start of the season by this point. Yes, they'll be one or two teams who now have 5 tough games in a row maybe, but our next 5 are: United, Everton, Southampton, West Ham and Leeds. We're favourites for all those bar United tonight.They have had a relatively easy start to the season.

Was thinking that myself. Only 2 teams we won't have played in the top 10 after tonight are West Ham & Wolves.I have no idea what easy start you are talking about when i looked at the first 4 games of the season.
I mean you've played City and Liverpool and Chelsea but otherwise, looked like you guys played against bottom feeders for the most part.I have no idea what easy start you are talking about when i looked at the first 4 games of the season.
Eh? It's very possible.Eh? We're 1/3 of the way into the season, how can one side have had a particularly good or bad start of the season by this point.

So our season so far has been as equal as most other sides.
Is that what I said?Eh? It's very possible.
But sheesh, if you think 4th place is an accurate representation of your performance over the course of the season then have at it.
He reminded me of AWB a few times with his stance with the ball.Weird team, there were bits today where they looked real quality and then an absolute mess in other bits.
They need to stop shunting smith Rowe wide. Benefitted us hugely. I’m not sure what a Nuno Tavarez is but it’s not very good.
Which managers do you think could finish 4th?No European football, United , Spurs and Leicester having a turmoil. Any decent manager would take them to 4th spot but with arteta 6th will be looked as an amazing result.
Smith-Rowe too.Saka feels like a player City will eventually sign just to have, and he's 90% of the reason to watch Arsenal
There are many better managers than Arteta that could do a better job than what he is doing. Conte would have definitely taken you to a 4th spot this season.Which managers do you think could finish 4th?
I'm not a fan of Arteta but I'm curious as to which "decent" manager would finish 4th with our squad.
I don’t think they played alright at all. They had a run of fixtures that favoured them and ground a lot results out.So they played alright for two months, get to joint 4th and now lose two winnable away games when leading.
Yeah sounds about right. 6th at best you suspect.
They did demolish Spurs and had a good win at Leicester although neither were much good at the time. Just same old with them, get close to establishing themselves in top 4 and just start losing again and you'd certainly fancy Man. United and a Conte led Spurs to finish above them. Could Arteta survive yet another season without CL especially when they have no europe commitments.I don’t think they played alright at all.

Surely that's inexcusable given the money they've spent and the fact they only play once a week?So they played alright for two months, get to joint 4th and now lose two winnable away games when leading.

They aren't good enough to finish above the current Spurs and Man. United now you appear to have someone who has clue how to get team playing 21st century football so yeah that's 6th at best. Pretty bad for them if they finish below West Ham again.Surely that's inexcusable given the money they've spent and the fact they only play once a week?
