I don't think it's fair to write us off because as Pellegrini has shown, you don't need to be the best manager to win the league. You just need a set of quality players who know what their role is in the team.
I don't think we will win the league, but the notion that Arsenal cannot handle the pressure is simply untrue nowadays. If we couldn't handle pressure, we wouldn't have won back to back trophies after being told our manager was incapable of it.

Pellegrini nearly got beaten by Rodgers to the title which shows its all about getting a good run going. Pellegrini won the title after bad start.

Pressure of wearing Robbo's shirt was too much for him.

We (Arsenal) haven't challenged for the title in years so I can see why some don't consider us as title challengers for next season.
That said we've finally got the makings of a league challenging squad. GK has been a huge issue for us as has DM - at least first 11 wise those two positions are now very strong. A top CF is still missing though.
I'd say you'd be a fool to completely disregard this Arsenal side if it stayed relatively injury free (unlikely I know). Truth is it's one DM injury away from fourth place also-rans but the rest of the squad is nearly perfect, just that top CF who we're obviously desperately looking for and some DM cover.
United are being overhyped big time though. They finished fourth by default last season and looked poor doing it. Lots of money spent but still horrible in defense and light up front, can see it being another transitional season for them. If anything Liverpool look more likely to make significant progress next season, not a title challenge but certainly the possibility of pipping United to fourth.
Good article pplf
especially the last line..
Looking forward to a better season in respect of more teams competing this term
$puds will actually be half decent I suspect

Science I think Man Utd are being completely underated but at least deep down I know we are the favourites even if pundits and bookmakers don't think so.
