Congratulations arsenal

[Mr Pigeon]

We're not even halfway through the season, they still have time to bottle it. And once we sign Mbappe and Messi in the January window, and that fraud Haaland starts missing sitters, and Newcastle implode due to local brewery shortages, we'll be there like molluscs on rimaldo's bell end.

 

[I’m loving my life]

Got to hand it to the Lego man from going from being a laughing stock to the best coach in the world. With the best team in the best league in the world.

Imperious all season.

Wiped the floor with every team.

Congratulations on your title

 

[WhoAreYou?]

They are the real deal; just look at the way they celebrated that 1-0. Arteta has implemented elite mentality.

A lot will depend on how City make it through that run.

 

[Paul the Wolf]

Congratulations Arsena

Noël Noël Noël Noël

 

[Plant0x84]

City will still win by 10+ points.

We’re only 4pts off city. When we beat them next month it’s all to play for!!

 

[Lay]

Easy from here on in.

 

[arnie_ni]

They've only dropped 5 points after 16 games. What's the highest points tally after 16 in PL history? Feel it must be up there, top 5 maybe

 

[arthurka]

They are playing some brilliant stuff

 

[Mike Smalling]

Yeah, it's about time to call it. They have it in the bag.

 

[Pintu]

Abu Dhabi are still the favourites.

 

[Dan_F]

They’re playing well, but it’s not really new years in terms of the fixtures. It’s the equivalent of the beginning of December.

As wrong as it feels, you have to keep reminding yourself that they’re actually our preference for winning league.

 

[Sylar]

They don't get injuries either. They can play the same set of players game after game. Partey no longer gets the inevitable injury.

 

[Ayoba]

Great team, fully deserved

 

[Iker Quesadillas]

They don't get injuries either. They can play the same set of players game after game. Partey no longer gets the inevitable injury.

Their starting striker is out until February.

Jesus is injured tbf. They need another striker for rotation.

 

[Wilt]

Congratulations Arsenal best team by a mile and so well deserved!

Not really…. Hate the cnuts

 

[Red in STL]

We've seen this before from Arsenal, great first half of the season and not so good second half, City are still favourites but they're not as dominant as most of us expected

 

[Sylar]

Their starting striker is out until February.

Yeah but the replacement has as many goals so no big loss.

Saka odegaard partey saliba would be big losses. They always stay fit however and can play every game

 

[footyfan019]

United to win the league...

 

[Ladron de redcafe]

They've only dropped 5 points after 16 games. What's the highest points tally after 16 in PL history? Feel it must be up there, top 5 maybe

Guardiola's 2018 City dropped 2 points in the first 20 matches.

 

[Keanes Magic Hat]

They have tough games coming up January and Feb, interesting to see where they are after the city game

 

[TheNewEra]

Honestly, Arsenal have the hallmarks of a championship winning side right now.

I expect them to win the EPL.

A few seasons ago I saw Liverpool for 3 games and you just knew they'd win it, same with Arsenal now. 7 points clear, some great players, playing consistently I'd be surprised if they feck this up.

I can see some tough opponents giving them difficult games, but... they're not playing in Europe, they're only in the Premier League so they have no excuses to not perform.

 

[CallyRed]

Think I'll go along to the open top bus parade.

 

[mu4c_20le]

Yeah but the replacement has as many goals so no big loss.

Saka odegaard partey saliba would be big losses. They always stay fit however and can play every game

Odegaard having the first injury free season of his life you can't make it up

 

[NicolaSacco]

Guardiola's 2018 City dropped 2 points in the first 20 matches.

Really?! W19, D1, L0?
That’s just ridiculous.

 

[Red the Bear]

Really?! W19, D1, L0?
That’s just ridiculous.

I think pool 2020 had the same record as well with their sole draw being against us.

 

[DatIrishFella]

Rather see Arsenal win the league as opposed to Abu Dhabi win three on the bounce.

 

[Sylar]

Really?! W19, D1, L0?
That’s just ridiculous.

Didn't those who should not be named win 26/27 a few years ago with the draw coming against united?

 

[Sviken]

Fair play to Arteta. He's really turned them around. And by God I do hope they win the title. I can't stand an oil club making a mockery of this league and Liverpoo are... well, Liverpool. Arsenal winning it is would be a nice fresh change.

 

[lex talionis]

During one of Fergie’s last seasons, we were up by 8 points with something like 6 matches left. We finished second. It might have been the Sergio Aguero goal season…not sure which one. Point is, it’s absurd to crown the champion on December 31.

 

[Zen86]

He’s showing Lego Arteta that you don’t need to spend a billion to win the league.

I think you've missed the point of this thread

 

[prateik]

I dont care who wins it.. they are so far ahead and playing so well that I dont think we will catch them.. that sucks..
Arse and City will almost certainly finish above us.. 3rd is the best we can get.. and even that would require a good effort with no signings in Jan a real possibility..

 

[PepG]

Guardiola's 2018 City dropped 2 points in the first 20 matches.

And Arteta was part of this team as his second assistant after Domenec Torrent. Next year 2018-2019 Arteta became Guardiolas main assistant and they won the league again in a crazy race with Liverpool till the very last game of the season. I fully expect the race this year between Arsenal and City to be very much similar.

 

[The Brown Bull]

Can’t abide Arsenal but would sooner they won it than any of the alternatives.

 

[Glorio]

Their starting striker is out until February.

Pfft! Only for them to discover Nketiah is who Haaland secretly wants to be when he grows up.

Congratulations Arsenal, the halo of greatness around all your collective heads is blinding in it's intensity and size

Deserve a guard of honour by all opponents from now till the season's end

 

[Lost bear]

Feck off!

Ditto.

 

[Cloud7]

Feck off Arsenal. Rather city win the league. No one cares when they do unless you are from Manchester and/or hate man city with a passion.

We can’t keep saying this every year. At some point they will end up with more PL’s than us if they win it every year while we close our eyes and say “no one cares”.

The newer generation of fans care and more will continue to care if they’re the most successful team.

 

[skc_18]

Would like Arsenal to win than Man City. But Arsenal have to play New castle twice and Man City twice. Couple of losses and draws could make them lose momentum and lose the top spot
(Don’t say it , don’t say it ) If that happens considering we are 4 points away from City we are not far away from challenge either
