Keepers: Almunia's started well but the back-up is worrying.

Defence: Gallas, Toure, Djourou, Silvestre, Clichy, Sagna, Song, Eboue, Hoyte plus loan boys when they come back. All positions covered, though we'd all like to have a fuck-off tall centre-back.

Midfield: Although Denilson, Song and Eboue have all done surprisingly well, I still think Cesc's partner is the likeliest weakness in the side. But the performances so far give me hope.

Attack: Am looking forward to Eduardo coming back, but attack looks good even without him.

New gooners: Nasri and Ramsay look great, as do the sort-of newboys, Vela and Wilshere. Coquelin is an interesting one for the future. Wait and see re Silvestre and Bischoff.

Can we win a trophy? Of course we can. There are weaknesses but there's a lot that's good about the squad, and I live in hope!

No

goalkeeper is medicore
defence is shambolic(kolo mainly however gallas has been poor aswell)
lack of a top centre mid next to cesc will cost us aswell

Agreed, but I hope I'm wrong

We won't!

I think its another of those seasons when when we're playing well we'll beat anyone but when we're playing bad we could lose to anyone...like Fulham. Its been great so far, but I do think we've been lucky with the way the fixtures came out. The true tests will be can we play badly and win, and can we win against United and Chelsea....I still refuse to take Liverpool seriously!

Spot on Lethal.

I think we can get by with Almunia who is much improved on two years ago, but central defence and defensive central midfield are worries.
