Being unbeaten is obviously great but let's not do it like Utd do, let's do it by smashing sides and playing attractive football

I thought Arsenal where the better side yesterday

We are lacking an out and out goalscorer and a creative midfielder

It's hard to be too harsh as we are unbeaten but for me City will win the league by at least 10 points

Too many players aren't either good enough or consistent enough

Salah was again very good yesterday but had no support - I was really disappointed with Bobby and Sadio

Arsenal the better side?

Quite tight still at the top but the bookies odds don't reflect that
Man City2/5
Liverpool4/1
Chelsea12/1
Tottenham50/1
Arsenal 80/1
Man Utd 100/1

Liverpool Miss a Countinho Hazard Silva game breaker

Chelsea are a CD and CF away from getting close from City, who could get 95-100 points this season

Not convinced Liverpool have a good enough squad to compete with City. City are relentless. They will get 95+ points. KDB injured? No problem Bernardo Silva steps up. Sane now relegated to the bench. They're just too good. They really could conceivably win the league for the next few years.

4th highest goal scorers in the league as well, youve even scored 2 more goals than United and Everton

Performances are concerning, particularly in midfield.

We need to get Keita/Henderson fully fit and hopefully we will see improvement there.

Results are good at this stage, just got to hope performances improve as the season goes on in the same way they did last season.

Some really shocking responses

I'll make it clear

I think we're better than Arsenal at the moment and we should finish ahead of them Spurs and even Chelsea - so I agree with the odds for the league

Tell me where I'm wrong when I said too many players aren't consistent or good enough - again I'll help you

TAA - great last season but this season been average at best

Henderson - is average at best

You can not win the league with an average CM or players like Mane and Bobby who are top draw playing most weeks below par

You guys have a solid defence and attack but Mf is weak. No guile or creativity in there. If you guys had a David Silva or even Ozil in there you would be very very strong

Im assuming youre being serious so;

At a time when we have never had a better start to the premiership and top our cl group showing great consistency youve come up with the theory that too many of our players are not consistent or good enough.

So yeah if you could explain that Id appreciate it.

Dont want Ozil, but yes we'd all like a Silva.

I dont think the midfield is weak at all. Is it the best midfield in the world? No. Can it compete with them? Demonstrably.

It's nice that people expect so much of Liverpool I guess.

I think our midfield problems were elevated yesterday by the fact Fabinho was so bad and we had to play him because of injuries.

Mocked widely but there is no way we would have been so weak in the midfield battle yesterday if Henderson had started.

We definitely miss Hendersons passing range when he is not there. Both him and Keita coming back though and with games against Fulham, Watford, Everton, Burnley and Bournemouth coming up Id hope we can get some good points on the board. Some bannana skins there though.

Hoody I'm not denying we've got a good team but it is not a team that can win the league this season and for me to say that in November is heart breaking

GB you list arsenal as a tough game you have played now because it suits you but all season you were saying City havent played anyone as yet because Arsenal are a midtable side

According to your pathetic logic you dropped 2 points last night. So basically you have facked up. Nothing to be proud of. Its in Citys hands now even if you win at the Etihad in the 2nd half of the season

So what you really mean is we're not as good as City.

Don't buy this rubbish about City and Pool being the standout teams. I think Chelsea are right up there and will probably finish second to City

Less concerned about Fabinho in those games to be fair, think he can do a job against those level of opposition.

Yesterday was a different kettle of fish though, absolutely miles the level of intensity and pace that a premier league game at the Emirates demands.

Hopefully it’s a steep learning curve for him but I do worry whether he will ever be able to cope in a game like that, just doesn’t seem suited to our system in many ways, hope I’m wrong.

Yeah Chelsea look very good to me.

Fringe players coming into some form too and It wouldnt surprise me to see them go jnto the market in January.

Spurs going along nicely too but have lost three games already in the league. City, Liverpool and Chelsea will form the top three imo. City winning and then a toss up between Chelsea and Liverpool with cup runs playing a major part in that.

What a record GB, and Liverpool will probably drop to third this evening.

Spurs will be in the mix, half the team still missing a few points of the top of table.

Well that’s not bad considering we haven’t played either yet.
