Arsenal winning the league would actually be a good sign, especially for us.

Beautiful story. Like with Leicester. 

[Blue Armour 4,336]

Ugh...this season is going to be embarrassing, especially if we end up outside top 4. Them winning the league is bad enough.

IMO, Arsenal fans become more insufferable compared to Pool and United fans after they become a winning team again.

Without taking a hit on Potter, you have to ask whether we should've done the same with Tuchel (even if his dismissal had nothing to dow with performances., and just general disagreement with the owners)

Yeah it's hard cause we were in such a rot! But we still are so not just management...mean doesn't always work but when it does like this one and Klopp. Takes time to make a mark but happens with the right people

Yeah the fallout is going to be terrible. For us. Not them.

Guess what makes it less urgh is its not like we're fighting for the title so they won't have beaten us to it...but apart from that..

@Tomo's point about Haaland not making City a better team is becoming more evident.

the guy is an absolute goal machine, yet City find themselves 7 points behind Artetas Arsenal who have Nkitiah playing up top.

Begrudgingly have to concede the title to Arsenal. Don't see them being stopped. Jesus being injured has not made a difference and they will strengthen in January. Saka for me is the best winger in the league bar Salah. Odegaard is a top player too. I was very pissed off when Real sold him to Arsenal after initially stating that they would give him a shot in the first team, then ended up selling him and Arsenal got him for a bargain. Top player. Got to give it to them. City fucked up. Decent thing as at least Lamps will get a lot of credit.

You all care way too much about other fans. Let them talk, we know we are better than them.

Let em have their year, so what, lets learn from their example and come back stronger next season.

''Arsenal are just the fifth side in English top-flight history to pick up as many as 43 points from the first 16 games in a season (three points for a win)''

I thought the same but we are still many games to play. Don't be surprised if the screw it up ala Newcastle.

Thing is there's been many games which could trip them up but haven't. And City are also not that amazing. Just seems unless something dramatic happens its all in their favour.

They have only lost one game this season. A game in which they were unlucky and majority of game were better team. So all there potential slip ups have not happened bar that and Southampton was a game they should have won but drew. They will slip up but do I see them slipping up enough points to bottle it? No. They just look a class above in all aspects of play.

madness they are dropping so many points with that side they have

the only things they are really missing are a class LB (they have been fucking around with that since Pepe joined)

and they could use another RWer, and probably a CMF

The only thing that would stop Arsenal now is a few injuries to key first team players....especially in midfield. 

You only have to look at us, Kante & James being injured has left a massive hole in our first XI!

everything is falling in place for those cunts, Pep giving his pal Arteta a big hand.

@Tomo's call at the start of the season - Haaland will score but City will regress - looking golden
