Fixtures have probably been kind but we’re there on merit.

[PSRB]

The Kroenke’s will never get a better chance to lift the PL; hoping they’ll back Arteta in the window. Spuds, Newcastle and Utd have more quality depth squads at this point. If we’re still there at the end of Jan, it might just be on. COYG.

Stronger squads? United possibly, Newcastle certainly don't and not really sure spurs do either.

Dec/Jan fixtures will really sort out where we end up
West Ham (H) - 3 points
Brighton (A) - 1 point
Newcastle (H) - 3 points
scum (A) - 1 point
Man United (H) - 3 points
Everton (A) - 3 points

I'd be delighted with that.

I suspect we'll get nothing away at the scum and Brighton we just can't seem to play well against!

Do we have any idea when the City game is likely to be re-scheduled for?

No, I don't think so. Also have the Everton home game to rearrange as well

Probably be made to play them back to back

I believe we have avoided that fate by topping our EL group, whereas United will have to play back to back games due to available fixture dates.

Ah well

[Arsenal Alcoholic Review]

Imperative that we out buy Newcastle while we still can. This might be the last window where that's possible. From the sound of things the Kroenke's give the green light during the last mid season window to go out and spunk £70m on that Vlahovic chap. So the money must be there for a big must have signing Edu/Arteta demand.

Trying to think who we could feasibly get up front who could give us the depth to win the league?

Mitrović 60m
Ivan Toney £60m
Tammy Abraham £45m
(The wildcard) Zaha £50m
Cross Dresser Lewin £15m


I could see Tammy Abraham being a dark horse here. We weren't far off getting him prior before Mourinho stepped in. He's had an average season so far hence it culd be a great time to do buisness. We badly need someone in this mould. The drop in quality in hold up play between Eddie and Jesus is staggering. He may be 5'7 and built like a 12 year old but Jesus with his back to goal plays like a prime Chris Sutton or John Hartson. If he's out for 4 or 5 league games that could be the difference in a title or not.
