Cheers for that.

Fucking commentators banging on about how amazing surez and sturridge's league tally is, like they are out of sight of all other partnerships.

1 goal?


Easy, how about the Aguero/Yaya partnership?

That was Yaya's 5th league goal today.

Is Ramsey this years Bale?

Not worried about the scousers. Not a lot of quality behind Suarez and Sturridge, as for Arsenal....let's see where they stand on new years day.

Arsenal are doing really well, this season is looking like an opportunity for them. I'm not at all concerned about Liverpool either.

Still hope Arsenal hammer Utd next week though.

The Arse will go to OT next week and drop their trousers as they always do and let the rags back in the race. I stand by that it's ours to lose. We are scoring again, freely. Just need to get VK fit and get the balance right.

Looks like Kolo had one of his nightmare games today, almost laid on a good effort for the Arse and was lucky they didn't score from it and a host of other trade mark cock ups.

Think the Arse will give Gollum and co a lesson in football next week. Predict 3-0 to the Arse. Cannot see why they are being written off for title. In last 30 league games they've lost only one

They haven't played many of the tougher teams (Spurs and now Liverpool I think), but they've done a great job of beating the rest. Their next 10 games are harder, but the rags won the title a few eyes ago and didn't beat any other team who finished in the top 4 but beat the rest.

We haven't really had many tough games (rags and Chelsea) but we've cocked up the winnable games (Cardiff, Stoke, Villa). Our next 10 will be tougher, but I expect us to do better - we're better when we think it's going to be a test and following Tuesday, we'll be through the CL group stage, so can stop resting players for important games.

By Xmas, we should know if Arsenal are the real deal. We may know the same about us.

Both us and the Arse are the real deal. Chelsea as well. The title will be won by one of these teams. I notice the bookies now gave us as slight favs. If Vinny comes back & doesn't pick up more injuries i think we will win it. Not by much but win it nevertheless. Can also see a cup thrown in for good measure

Appalling statistic. Wouldn't be surprised if Begovic led the way in assists too

We could be the real deal, but only if we play like we can every week, home and away, regardless of the opposition. Hopefully we've just suffered Pellegrini getting used to English football and now we're finding our stride, as we were excellent against West Ham and I thought we were better than Chelsea, just undone by a mistake. We've got some winnable games coming up as long as we take them seriously such as Sunderland away next week. We can't afford to drop anymore points in them

Play like we can is an interesting thought.There is no way it will always be free flowing ,exciting football where we blow the oppos away. I am happy if we have games like Newcastle where we don't play that well but don't let silly goals in and finish it off with a bit of quality.That's really all we have been missing so far with stupid goals given away against Villa,Chelsea and Cardiff.Take those away and we are top of the league.

They won't. They always always bend over backwards for the Rags.
Not too bothered about the outcome. It's a win win. either way one drops points.

Previously you are right. The 8-2 springs to mind. Gollum however will shit himself trying to outdo Wenger and go very defensive, rather like he did against us. This will play right into Arsenals hand. Am far more concerned over Arse than rags for title challengers. Cant bring myself to want a rag win si hoping for a draw. At least like you say, someone has to drop points. May as well be both of them

This. And they are letting Defoe go in January. They must have somebody lined up. Mancini-esque decision otherwise.
