Can anybody still argue that Arsenal have been given an easy start to the season?

No team in the big 6 has played less home games or more away games than Arsenal, no team in the big 6 has had more ‘big 6’ clashes than Arsenal.

The only team you can really argue have had a more difficult start is United, who have played each of the top 10 in the league. The only club to play each of the bottom 13 is Spurs who have supposedly had a difficult start to the season.

I personally enjoyed Sandy saying spurs beating Brighton away was tougher than Arsenal beating Liverpool at home

Then later on losing to Liverpool at home

Well Arsenal's opponents have the lowest average position in the table compared to everyone else by the looks of it there.

Because we can't play ourselves. We're top.

Spurs were 3rd when we battered them last month I think.

The only reason 2nd and 3rd are 2nd and 3rd is cos they haven't been battered by us yet. United will finish 2nd.
