Arsenal have had a piss easy schedule at the start, they now face Villa. I want to see them against the bigger sides.

Tbf except for Spurs on paper ours hasn't been hard. We shouldn't have lost 3-0 to Leeds..

If they do well against the bigger sides then it's a problem.

Exactly this. And our problem is never really to do with the strength of opposition. 

Complacency is the issue with our team, and it's plagued us since last season. We either don't turn up or just shoot ourselves in the foot with individual errors.

That doesn't happen till October, so they could have a nice cushion if things continue.

That's what I fear. They could really solidify a top 4 spot,...

But that being said, we were 5 points clear at top of the table in Nov last year and we know how that ended.

So, never say never.

I was going to say the same thing. They threw away top four last season with three straight defeats.

It's not how you start, but how you finish.

Bournemouth going down. 100%. Scott Parker for all the praise he gets as a manager is absolutely abysmal in the PL.

On the other games - never thought I’d say it but more worried about Arsenal than Spurs at present. Saliba, Jesus and Zinchenko have strengthened them a lot in terms of quality and good quality depth at a problem position for them (LB).

Jesus will likely score 20-25+ this season in all comps, in fact I have no doubts he will and thats the sort of numbers which can turn a 5th or 6th place finish to a 3rd or 4th.

Odegaard was also outstanding v Fulham. Saliba too looks a real asset.

True but they look a lot more put together this season..obviously like you say things may change but from what seen so far they've done what they've needed to do in terms of signing and its paying off
