mwenza....I know what "best strike force" means but i didn't want to get into it considering Arsenal have scored 42 goals. Just the other day Arsenal had scored more goals and won more matches than any team in the league but it wasn't much of a big deal....My concern is with the goal difference which I'll comment on when all the top teams will have played equal games.



Of coz I know you know what "best strike force" means.

Afterall, have not forgotten that last season, at some point when aseno were languishing in their usual position three in EPL, you were yapping here that "ASENO HAVE THE BEST STRIKE FORCE IN EUROPE AT THE MOMENT".....Unakumbuka? That was under "Another trophyless season beckons".

So don't state that "best strike force" is not an issue only when it doesn't favour your beloved aseno.
IF YOU EXPECT ME TO POST ANYTHING POSITIVE ABOUT ASENO, YOU MAY AS WELL SIT ON A PIN

I must admit you have quite a memory.....before the Christmas period Arsenal were in the same position but i didn't say a word. I also didn't make a big deal on the matches won.

TAZ,
My point was that injuries affect every other team in the course of the league, at the end of the day, the best team wins and as we speak, aseno have not been that team for the last six seasons!!!!!

On the stats, can you avail the stats for aseno in the last say 3 seasons....utajificha we beat pants down!!!!

McReggae....For the past three seasons we've only lost 2 games on average in the second half of the season and never failed to win not less than 10 games. What you fail to understand is that while Arsenal has been selling all its top class players year after year Man Utd has only improved their squad....i cannot start comparing our 2003/2006 squad with our current team or compare our winning rate then with our performance now. I think Wenger is the only Manager who has sold all his top players (experienced), still maintained a top four finish and ensured Arsenal progress to the advanced stages of the CL.

@TAZ - You can say something in short or using the long version but the underlying message or facts are the same. To you for example:

Long Version: We [Arsenal] don't win the league because we don't have the depth, our players are neither consistent nor experienced (?), we are a selling club, we think some games are "not a must win" bla bla bla...

Short Version: We [Arsenal] don't win the league because we are not as good as the rest - Man U for example.
Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

Maichblack....ahsante sana, when you sell your best players and then come here to yap about how you are turning on profits then use the same argument to justify you inadequacies in the pitch then something is very wrong somewhere!!!!

TAZ,
You are lazy to check out aseno stats: here they are,

2007/2008
Aug-Dec win rate 70%, Jan - May 61.11%

2008/2009
Aug-Dec win rate 50%, Jan - May 55.55%

2009/2010
Aug-Dec win rate 68.42%, Jan - May 52.63%

Only in one season did you improve in the 2nd half of the season when you finished almost 20pts behind united and even then the your win rate was mediocre compared to that of united!!!!!

Sasa nani amesema hii nonsense yote....I didn't say we won't win a trophy/Title this year. As it stands now its only Chelsea and Man City who have more depth in their squad than Arsenal. Apart from Van Der Sar and Ferdinand Arsenal can match (or better) Man Utd player by player in all positions.

McReggae...."when you sell your best players and then come here to yap about how you are turning on profits" You know as well as i know that our profits don't come from selling players....We don't sell out players at abnormal prices. In fact we use the same funds received to sign new players.

For the past three seasons we've only lost 2 games on average in the second half of the season and never failed to win not less than 10 games. FACT.....Btw stop giving us stats of when you had Ronaldo, Tevez etc Last season you were not that strong as i had illustrated.

I once heard one arrogant Arsenal fan declare that Man Utd, Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City have all sold their clubs to remain competitive in the league yet Arsenal are right there in the middle.....sometimes i do wish we had some of that Oil money.

TAZ,
You are sinking even lower, when we had Ronaldo and Tevez, were they aseno players???

If you can better our team player for player then something is seriously wrong with your manager and attitude of your players......you should severral points above us then!!!!

Our styles of play are quite different plus we're weak at the back thats why i singled out Van Der sar and Ferdinand but we do score just as many goals as Man Utd or any other team.

I always get pissed off when Man Utd fans talk of previous seasons as if they'll be any points awarded for that.....yeah you had two great seasons with Ronaldo, Tevez and Rooney at the front but so did Arsenal in previous years but that was then. I always ask man Utd fans why they keep comparing their team to Arsenal yet you claim we're not your main rivals.
