You clearly don't think so .

This is a title winning side filled with leaders across pitch.

The person that is holding the players back and letting them down in accountant Wenger.

Arsenal played well with 10.If Wenger kept Giroud on i think they of got something.

With Coquelin, Cazorla, and Sanchez healthy, yes. With Ramsey and Flamini as starting DMs, no. The defense is very resilient, with Monreal and Bellerin offering some attacking support; Mertesacker's lack of pace and Koscielny's mental lapses (like he had by not covering Costa's goal) are the biggest problem.

The midfield is a little lightweight but fine in terms of attacking dynamism with Ozil and Sanchez. And Coquelin and Cazorla provide the protection and distribution of possession that Ramsey and Flamini can't, and are sorely missed. Giroud has been okay enough for a sustained title challenge; a top striker would make it easier, but he has been fine.

Flamini and Ramsey, especially the former, are the biggest hindrances to a title challenge--most fans knew a DM should have been signed in the summer when Coquelin would get injured. Now the team is stuck with those two during a critical point of the season.

I already know; but his partnership with Flamini has been problematic in midfield, regardless of whether he played DM or box-to-box--it just isn't working.

2 points from 3 games is a concern for sure.

Not a chance it's a team full of no hopers, bottles and cowards. Even Sanchez is a bottler always passed the buck at Barca.

Did any Arsenal fan really think they would win this game? The red card covers up the truth.

When it time to stand up be counted and do something no Arsenal play can be counted on. None of them demand anything from a team mate, none of them have a mates back. Your squad is the blue print for a bully, always up for the wee teams. Never fancy it when the big boys come to town

Once Barca batter you home and away your entire season will collapse, you'll finish third an perhaps win the FA cup.

Then it will all be repeated next season and the season after and the season after than untill finally someone at the club has the courage to say "we can be better than this".

6 FA Cups in a row would be quite something though...

Yes it's called failure!

Arsenal could win the title because there are no great teams. This Arsenal side is not a patch on any of Wenger's title winning side. Arsenal have, but do not always falter at the end of a season.Remember a 12 pt gap to spurs in march being eroded to finish in a CL spot.
