Citeh are going to win the league

That was, in my opinion, always likely to be the case. They do have their slumps, but they typically have long winning streaks that help them win championships.

Where are those individuals that were raving about this vibrant Arsenal side led by a mastermind in Arteta? 

I've lost count of how many times Arsenal have been 1st at Christmas (normally a good indicator) only to throw it away.

2 times, but 3 times they came back to win when another team led at X-mas

Remembering the 14 times the team at the top on Christmas Day didn’t win PL title

Arsenal have a great first eleven, but not a good enough squad, add to that they have barely had an injury or suspension and basically played one game a week, most players have played nearly every PL game and it’s catching up with them, they play like Liverpool did a couple of seasons ago 100 mph and pressing

Liverpool zoomed away and left us behind...6 behind 4th with a game more..hmmm 

It doesn't matter how bad your defence is most of the time when you have attackers that can score, one of whom is among the best in the world.
