Arsenal have been consistent in 2013. The change came after the 3-1 loss to Bayern at the emirates. They were actually the form team of the second leg of last season and this has continued.
Gunners may drop points and even lose to Manutd at the emirates but this will count for nothing if they are top of the log at the end of the season.

The Citizens are too close to the mighty Gunners for comfort though. As for Liverpool, we all know this is short lived, the best position they'll get is 5th and that will be a great achievement. [/quote]
Nonsense, Hii maringo Arsenal mmepata kwa kuongoza table tu.
I was feeling sorry for you for the 8 years drought, but now it's all gone.
You or Man United winning is trouble for the rest of the fans.
This year, Liverpool has improved.
We're are not as proud and as loud mouthed. Watch this space.
This season, the worsed position we'll be is 4, You can just guess at the expense of who..... [/quote]

Liverpool always starts well but we all know they cannot sustain the pressure. BTW is Liverpool in Europa? Europa is a killer![/quote]
Boss, your reasoning is warped. The fact that arsenal has not won anything in the last 8 years does not mean they can't win anything this year.
So do other teams.

[quote=jguru][quote=Adnan][quote=jguru][quote=Adnan]Its now pretty evident to any keen soccer follower that Ozil is NOT a big game player.

Re:- Dortmund and Man U matches.[/quote]

Oh, really? Let's also say Sagna, Arteta, Carzola and Giroud are not big game players too. Ozil is just an unit of the team. Everyone plays their part. Ozil is one of the best AMs in the world right now. FACT. The German National Team should be complaining that he isn't a big game player too.[/quote]

Read carefully the following article before you embarrass yourself further:-

http://hereisthecity.com/en-gb/2013/11/14/is-arsenals-mesut-ozil-a-big-game-player/.[/quote]

I read it. A random article on the Internets. So what is your point again?[/quote]

Which point were you attempting to respond to?

[quote=TAZ][quote=Adnan]The important thing about EPL at the moment is that Man United are only 1 point, yes only one point adrift of the title favourite, Man City.

That means the title contest is going to be quite interesting this season.

The only team that instils fear at the moment is the one from the blue side of Manchester.

Wait for the Xmas and New Year festivities when teams play four matches in a span of about a week and you will understand why the EPL TITLE SHALL NEVER BE WON BY CLUBS WITHOUT STRENGTH IN DEPTH.[/quote]

:-d :-d :-d :-d

You've just dropped points against Cardiff, next is Spurs, Everton , Newcastle and Stoke.....by the time we get to the festive period labda mtakuwa huko no. 11. Btw during the festive period we rarely lose matches.In the last four seasons we've only lost one match at that period of the season...FACT!

Ati Ozil is not a big game player, kwani he has to score to be considered as such? It was also well indicate that before the Man Utd match he was not totally fit. IMO Arsenal have lacked width in their recent games. They really needed Walcott back because Ramsey, Rosicky and Wilshere are not good wingers.....Ozil and Carzola don't have the pace to feature consistently on the flanks.

If you do the double over Arsenal but fail to win against the other teams in the league then that result becomes insignificant. Look at Man Useless, sasa si wamerudi where they were before the Arsenal match....might even drop further this coming weekend. [/quote]
OZIL one of the best players, but truth be told about his weaknesses.
1. He is not big game player ; he always seem overwhelmed then.
2. He's a bit lazy. It was complained in Madrid he didn't work hard enough in training and on the pitch.
These are the main reasons why he was sold to Arsenal.
I thought he will change and step up at Arsenal to become the world's best as he has the quality.
Unfortunately, watching him over the last 3 games or so, he has returned to comfort zone.

2.

You have cunningly avoided to make any reference to the Red Hot Title Favourite, Man City and arsenal's obvious lack of strength in depth which will soon be evident.[/quote]
Boss, Ati man city haina depth? [-x
In terms of depth, no premier league team can rival man city.
