Can we actually beat a top 6 side??

Relax fella... Few weeks ago, you were happy with it. We can only improve. AVB looks good in cup competitions. We are still nick top 4 atleast. AVB will fixed things back. If you remember pre-abramovich, we also play well, but defensive probs too

Talk about jumping the gun. You've only played 2 of the possible 10 matches against top 6 opposition.

"Talk about jumping the gun. You've only played 2 of the possible 10 matches against top 6 opposition."

It's not jumping the gun mate, you are better than Arsenal this season imho, as are Liverpool.

If you can see something is fundamentally wrong, you dont wait and see if it rights itself, you have to do something about it.

I remember seeing Jose Mourinho make substitutions and alterations after half an hour against teams, because he had mis-read their set up, when asked why he didn't leave thigs alone for the first half at least, he looked perplexed by the questioning and said "If you can plainly see that something isn't working and probably isn't going to work, why wait for a miracle, when the answer is in your hands"

He is right, if we wait around, we could find ourselves is a 5-7 way scrap for 3rd and 4th place

SANDSEND - Arsenal have improved somewhat since the start of the season.

All I'm saying is things can turn around very quickly. Look how we lost our first 2 only to win the next 2 (against top 6 opposition). It's still early days yet and even so it's more important to get results out of lower opposition; as in the other 28 games.

I think your forgetting had JT not recieved a heavy backpass and slipped, we probably wouldn't have been talking about a defeat

Don.

I know mate, but if my auntie had nadgers, she'd be my uncle.

I just dont think we are equipped for this high defensive line with the players we currently have at our disposal.

This is imho the poorest Arsenal side under the Wenger regime, and should only be used as a yardstick if you lose to them.

I gave united very little credit for their 8-2 win because Arsenal ladies would have been more resolute in defence, to lose to them exposes serious issues within our own set-up
