As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
When have the last few been then? Are we counting the last 20 years??
Being top for two games in October do not mean a title challenge!!
we've challenged twice in the last 5 years, both times I think managed to finish 4th in a 2 horse race
not sure what you mean by 20 years...? We won plenty in the 90s and noughties.
If we sign two/three world-class players and they settle in straight away, I believe we can challenge for the title. But if that doesn't happen, it's another fourth place trophy for the Arsenal...
fcuking hilarious that some people 'think' we'll win it!!
This team has failure written all over it and each season it's only a good last 6-10 games that even gets a CL place.
Win the title?? With Chezza in goal....or worse....Flappy? Our forward line of Walcott, Gervinho, Lee Chapman and very occasionally Poldi knocking in tons of goals?? A midfield including regular starts for Ramsey, Diaby (ok, not regular for him thankfully), Rosicky etc, fuck, we'll even have Barry Bender up front in some games at this rate.
Win the title.....damn near pissed myself laughing!!
4th or if we have a great season (by our usual Groundhog Day standards) 3rd but unless we buy 4 world class players in 4 different positions and/or jettison the silly old bastard of a manager we stand no chance of challenging for major honours
"When" will be mid-February when the FA Cup is sacrificed in favour of trying to overturn a 4 goal deficit against Real Madrid and when we're six points behind Spurs in the race for the virtual trophy.......which we will secure on goal difference at Carrow Road resulting in a mass orgasm for the 2000 travelling fans
Personally can't see Citeh AND Chelski blowing up again
but you never know, knew managers - huge squads to keep happy
ManUre under the Moyesiah have to catchable, miracle that Meatface took that bunch so far
(if vanStaplecunt got injured they would be useless)
It's not impossible to believe all our rivals get worse
If - IF - we make some decent signings - (Higuan/fellani/Cesar) we might finish 3rd - but the way things are looking with the incapable duo of wenger &gazidis and their incompetence in the transfer market - we will be extremely lucky to finish in the top 5...if the scum manage to hold on to Monkey Boy they WILL finish above us
