Yep. These past five days have been so Arsenal. Chelsea will have the title wrapped up by the end of March at this rate. Even more so if Arsenal equalise.
Into the top four, yes. But to catch Chelsea? They're already 13 points behind, with a much weaker GD. Both have fairly straight forward back-to-back home games to finish 2016 with.
Yeah I know I meant to catch Liverpool really.
You never know though. Chelsea look so balanced and almost unbeatable at the moment, but their bound to have a dodgy run at some point if others can stay in touch could be exciting spring.
Have to agree with Wenger that City's 2nd goal should have been disallowed (though not the first one....too marginal). An off side player (Silva) was a distraction to the keeper. It's no good Gary Neville showing it in slo-mo and saying at the critical moment Silva wasn't between the keeper and the ball. The human eye doesn't work like that....we see in snapshots and the brain interprets it. An off side player running in would distract the keeper out of the corner of his eye...it would affect him....and didn't the rules change this season to allow for that. TOM!

So we have only 3 days to rest between our matches, while the likes of Chelsea have 7.
Three days rest, our rotation laughs in the face of three days rest.
But seriously, we have a long recharge now, I think we will do well when the thick n fast starts up.

Will come in post Qatar imo as there will be one then anyway.
Reckon (and hope) it will be in January though rather than over Xmas.
I can go along with that. I think the new FA Cup TV deal supposedly was bad though. The only other option is going to 18 teams... but I got shot down for suggesting that.
****ing hate the way Koeman says "but ok that's football" really annoyed me when he said it 5 times an interview when he was here and dislike it even more now
Leicester appeal Vardy red card. Hopefully he'll get an extra game for a ludicrous appeal. He jumped in to a tackle with both feet for ****s sake!
