We’ve been totally **** away from home since before emery and there’s clearly a mental block that has carried over into his reign.

Surely, surely, any concerns that we are dull are mitigated by the fact that we are bloody great at home? I mean really, really good. We’ve basically beaten EVERYONE apart from Man City on the first game of the season and Liverpool who we were excellent against. And we’ve done so playing a style of high press football that people have been crying out for for years. We’re even the third highest scorers in the division, behind only the two runaway leaders.
Not unreasonable to think that Sunday night table will be:

Arsenal 34 69
Chelsea 35 69
Scum 34 67
Man U 34 65

That and being in a strong position for a EL semi-final, with a manager who has won it three times in a row. And you're right, of course, we've been wonderful to watch and very, very good at home. Even last night second half we were very good, some of our passing was a joy to watch just a shame we couldn't find the second. With the defenders we have we're always going to look vulnerable at the back at the times given how we attack. Sky commented on how dangerous Watford were and backed it up with a 40 yard wonder strike out of nothing that hit the bar, a half chance and AMN clearing the ball off the line, even though it never got near the line. Amazing the way some muppets lap up Sky's nonsense if it happens to coincide with what they want to believe.

Meanwhile, the rest of us are supporting Arsenal.
