1. February fever: Wenger whining about Mou, Flamini seeing red, looming injury crisis. Munched by Munchen, Man U and Mata 2. March meltdown: Murdered in Munich, fearful of big games v Mancs and Mou 3. April fools: Still in the title hunt until loanee Lukaku is let loose on the Gunners 4. They won't. Mayday celebrations: Arsenal learn how to win big games under pressure for the first time in a decade
Unless they add at least 2 quality players (one a forward) then March - Draxler would be a good signing for them
How is draxler in big games? Ozil has a rep for going missing in big games, which may be slightly unfair
It is not so much a crack, more an expected drop away. No disrespect but any club with their run of games you would expect to drop away somewhat over that period. Can't see Arsenal in the final month of the title race.
United didn't under Saffa and nor have we in many seasons. Beating Spuds at Wembley on a Sunday, Barca on a Wednesday!
I think that Arsenal will carry on until beginning of March, when the meltdown will begin. The fatigue of the continuous struggle to deliver at the top level of the Premier League will take its toll, and Arsenal will start under performing. However, despite this, I still believe that they should be able to finish in the top four teams, and secure a place at next year's Champions League, which is really the main aim of every Premier League team when they start the season.
Arsenal have looked stronger and more resilient this year. Now they are not on top, they just might relax and carry on all year. Karrlson looks a good import, so I am expecting them to hold top 4 reasonably comfortably. They were never going to win while City has the squad they do.
Who knows. They will finish above the special cases team though. Now, get that bus fueled up, you've got a long drive to Manchester and a lot of parking to do.
