"both results that should be a comfortable 3 points on a new day."
Thats the whole point of an off day/fluke result, you simply just don't know when they're going to crop up. And without being cheeky if you're looking for any of the top four teams to be dropping points against lesser opposition then you'd put your money on it being Arsenal.
However, this season is a bit of a weird one with teams dropping points and you lot might have turned the corner. We'll just need to wait and see come May who sits top of the pile.
One thing I will say is that it's nice to see you boys back in the mixer. I'm all for an exciting title race.

Not to be rude Rex, but i'm sitting here expectantly waiting for Arsenal to bottle their title bid, and i'll only give up on that once it starts looking utterly mental.
We got 82 points in 07/8 came third. This time around we look more solid at the back and can't see the reason we can't get the title.
Rex, as much as I like your response with the use of a simple emoji I'd be interested to hear what you actually think.
Over the last few years has any club shown that they are perennial bottlers more than Arsenal?
Well Mr Petrescu, Just a little reminder that in the last few seasons Arsenal at this stage in 2012/13 after 15 games we were in tenth place with 21 points and after Xmas, put in a great run of results to finish in 4th place
The season before a similar situation occurred, in the New Year putting in good performances again finishing 4th That was the season of "Mind the Gap" when we pulled back the 10 point lead that Spurs had over us.
So hardly a bottle job wouldn't you say? I see no reason that Arsenal can't do the same in this New Year
