    I ****ing love beating Chelsea. Even without Maureen, they are a **** of a club. We've had such a tough time with them over the last decade, seems like the tide is turning. We had them exactly where we wanted them for the entire 90 mins today <ok>

    I'm in the very dangerous position of having hope this season. Dangerous because when you have hope in a team managed by Wenger, it normally leads to desperate disappointment. Don't let me down you old has-been... go out on a bang and achieve something.

    Ok so I got this wrong. <laugh>
    Shambolic defending from us. You deserved the 3 points, your forward play was sublime, could have been 6-0 on another day!
    Congrats fellas/

    Yeah, but guaranteed we'll be 5th in the line up with a bare 5 minutes of highlights. I want as much highlights as I can get! :emoticon-0100-smile

    I doubt it, London derby with 3 goals, I'd say first or second

    Sanchez is too hot to handle. Cahill was simply another one of his victims

    Apparently we are third - so in the middle of both our guesses

    That performance was basically a carbon copy of our 3-0 win over a United last season, last season we did not build on it, and that performance was basically as good as it got last season, this season might be different because of the additions of Xhaka and Mustafi, but who knows.

    Oh and Iwobi was quality as well, nothing better than seeng a player who has actually risen though the youth system come into the first team and show signs of becoming a top player. Iwobi's style reminds me so much of Rosicky at times, he just speeds up the tempo of passing in an instant.

    And finally, that recovery pace Bellerin showed to tackle Pedro was just unreal, he has to be the fastest defender we have ever had, surely?

    tough part about being an arsenal fan:

    actually getting angry seeing these performances because you've seen them before, and they are usually followed by a collapse.

    That defensive recovery was ****ing incredible, not only to make up the yards, but to get a clean tackle in too. Quality <ok>
