Walcott's goal just now and mahrez goal against us is what hazard needs to do more.

You don't need to dribble again in the box all the time, just bend it like Beckham into the corner.

Infact all our wingers are guilty of this, just cut in and curl the ball.

Maybe it could be their year..gotta happen some point..yay..though be nice if somehow leicester manage it..come on city!

Honestly, I dont see Arsenal sustaining a run until May to go and become champions. Probably, no team will be able to distance themselves too much in the top of the table, but I would still put my money on ManCity. Just like in 13-14 when neither Chelsea or Liverpool were good enough to be Champions so City basically grabed it by default.

However, if Arsenal does make some key signings in january (mostly a striker and a defensive midfielder), I can see them clinching it. I mean, they will definitely be up there, so with a good transfer window they can get the final push they need.

Otherwise I think its going to be like Roger's Liverpool...

Win or lose, don't you love how Arsenal's fullbacks operate? Proper fullbacks. Best fullbacks in the league for me.

Ozil is such a joy to watch. All year too. Think he'll be the one to be break the assist record as well. Think that makes it 15 in the league this season alone.

I love how Giroud bounces back every time he gets heavily criticised. Not world-class but a very good striker.

Özil going to shatter the assist record this season by the look of it.

Arsenal are playing like we were first half of last season and like Mourinho's best teams. They don't mind surrendering possession and they spring masterfully on weak defensive moments.

City's defending is as poor as ours is. And they have some of the most expensive defenders ever. This is Pellegrino's biggest weakness. When they aren't totally dominating and blitzing sides they have no answer or change.

[Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067]

Man City will still win the league.. They just have to Romanticize everything like they always do.

I know Chelsea fans can't say much, but how is this City team doing worse than last season with the additiona of KDB, Sterling and Otamendi. How.

They still have the best Home record, and past 13 PL champs have all had best home record. Yes, im relying on that stat, and also the sheer amount of quality they possess.

Leceister and Arsenal will undoubtedly choke this lead away. You can all but book it really.

[Pizy 18,417]

Wonder if we'll have a proper, creative #10 like Özil next season now that Mourinho isn't here.

You never know, maybe if Pellegrino here is our next manager he can reunite with Isco when Madrid inevitably sell a superstar to make room for the new hotness.

Or maybe last weekends Oscar will finally become the beast we've dreamed of since we bought him.

Everybody thought the same about Fabregas last season. Ozil does look good though. With the two today its at like 14?

[Muzchap 8,966]

Lol Arsenal walking it - this is why I don't want Pellegrino (water boy) here

Just terrible tactically...

[Laylabelle 9,381]

Oooo Cech can create a new record if he keeps a clean sheet..good for him

Arsenal will win the League - City are shite

Otamendi is the most overated player since Mangala

Sterling wasn't ready for the jump up (bullet dodged there)

KDB isn't doing too well on the wing - probably needs to be more central.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

God damn Arsenal cutting them open.

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

Aguero done again.

Özil is actually quick and can play effectively in a very advanced position unlike Cesc. He's also phenomenal in tight spaces with the ball and can beat a man with a dribble.

[Laylabelle 9,381]

They seemed to have got it more together this season.some class players and chance to add.yeah may change but duno seem likely at this stage and to early to discount them

[Pizy 18,417]

Hammering City here and I completely forgot that their best player is out.

Hopefully we have some nice, attacking football next season.
