It’s not even just as Arsenal thing to me. It’s a football thing. 8 straight wins isn’t a regular occurance for most teams, let alone in a tough league. Palace and Leicester aren’t mugs, they’re not the equivalent of Harlow Town! History/maths etc would suggest that we won’t be winning 8 games in a row. There is nothing wrong with thinking that, it’s not pessimism, it’s just the likely outcome.
And yeah, our defence… I reckon even Benteke will finally remember what scoring goals feels like.
We probably should get 18 or 19 points out of these series. But I can see Arsenal having problems against Newcastle, Watford and Palace.
A comfortable 24 pts
If we get 18 points out of the the next 8 matches I’ll be extremely pleased. If we get 24 out of the the next 8 matches then we would be in for the title. I don’t think we are at that stage atm and I don’t think people realize how tough the PL has gotten.
Wow you really had to go there didn’t you 
Thats the spirit…
One gone. Let’s keep it up!
Still going strong lol
2 out of 2! Keep it up :mustafi:
I find it incredible how we managed to get worse defensively. We really are one of a kind.
I’m not sure we are worse defensively but we certainly aren’t any better.
Tbf, I don’t know if you can be any worse defensively, at least as a supposedly top side.
Emery ain’t a defensive coach but he has to figure something out. Bring in a defensive trainer of some sort. Something. This will get uglier against better sides(like what happened with West Ham, City and Chelsea).
For starters though, start a fucking DM like Torreira.
It could happen when you try to change an outdated system.
I actually think we’ve gotten better from game to game.
I dont think our back four has stood up to anyone. Thats my biggest worry. The midfield has to be restructured with Lucas or theres going to be a few very bad results at some stage.
We’re going to struggle against the champions elect, Watford
We are gonna do it boys! Just believe!
I reckon we will win the 3 home games but drop points in one of the away London Derbies.
Not a bad start is is
