Important thing we do keep this up. Arsenal always do something stupid when things get comfortable no pressure.

We've quietly been the 2nd best team in the league this season. Deserved to win against Stoke, Chelsea, and Watford. Have to beat United next weekend to cement this fact.
Burnley rarely get a thrashing. Very few teams go there and score more than one or two goals. But I agree that we should be scoring more. We could've really thrashed some of the teams we played like Brighton, Swansea, West Brom, Sp**s, etc. We dominated all those games but failed to score more than twice.Keep it up in defence but going forward we need to improve significantly. 64% possession and 17 attempts but only 2 on target. Our decision making and accuracy in the final third currently leaves a lot to be desired.
I feel we'd instantly improve our goal threat if every player who takes more than 2 touches on the ball gets forced to spend a week with Piers Morgan.

After 13 games we're 4th.
In fact the league goes
City, United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Sp**s, Liverpool, the rest
And by squad cost
City, United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Arsenal, Liverpool, the rest
Jesus what a correlation already. And there's still people rubbishing the link Almost pointless playing the games really.
Have pointed this out before. Our counter attack has been very poor so far. Many teams play against us trying for a nil nil draw. But if we manage to score that first goal, all those teams lose control, scatter away trying to score an equalizer and give us many opportunities. In the brighton and swansea match, we had numerous opportunities to counter attack with just one defender against us. Every one of those attacks must have ended as goals. We managed to screw up all of them.Burnley rarely get a thrashing. Very few teams go there and score more than one or two goals. But I agree that we should be scoring more.

I think the ability is still there, we just seem to be hesitant to overcommit on occasions, and the final ball is often lacking.Have pointed this out before.

Most of the times, I see our forwards running in the wrong direction and the player with the ball having no idea about when or where to pass. The confusion is very clear. Wenger must look into it sooner. We never know how important goal difference is going to be in the end.
Turns out I lied, never came back. Sorry to let you down.Thanks for letting us know!
I blame Bellerin. Credit to him for always sprinting and being there for counters, but 90% of the time he messes up.
