12. Points. Wrapped. Up.
You're back. What do you think of Arouca, and what do you think of these results and Arsenal having a chance in getting further away from everyone tomorrow?

Raheem Sterling did well to get in scoring positions, but he had a mare finishing.

I remember saying we weren't contenders before the league started. Feel I was on to something. That said, I also laughed at my dad suggesting Liverpool could win it and look how that's going.

No.
All I'm going to gif is that penalty not given when Shawcross decides to push away Ba with two hands in his back when it was 2-2.

To be fair anyone from you lot up look like potential winners to me. We all know Arsenal can have long dips in form.
A lot of teams would accept a point at Southampton. We should have took three but you have to hand it to them, they're great.
We typically struggle against teams who press, pass nicely and keep procession. So I'm happy for a point. Especially with other results going the way they have.

So Stoke has just been unexpectedly good this game? That third goal was beautiful.
:lol :lol
Allen and Coutinho were so good today. West Ham did very well to keep it to 4 goals. Demel's was definitely an own goal but I'm almost 100% certain that Sakho's goal was over the line before Collins knocked it into the net.
We had so many attackers up, so many chances that were inches away from becoming goals.
It was a great attacking performance against the type of team that always seems to trouble us.

People who say Chelsea are a lock for this league baffle me. If anything it's tight between Chelsea, Arsenal and City. Liverpool might sneak it if they can keep up this performance through Jan & Feb.
Man Utd look done and dusted to me. Two home defeats on the trot without a single sign of fight. They're done.

Suarez is making this league his bitch.
Great set of results for Arsenal.

You think Arsenal will draw at City? Of course they have a chance but United, Newcastle, Spurs and Everton have all gone there and got smashed.

We'll see, but I reckon the Daves will probably stick with Sam - it's not just about the on-pitch performances, we've had a ton of bad luck with injuries and, in hindsight, a pretty dreadful transfer window. We need to make a few signings in January, so I guess the first question is; will their be money available? And the second; will the Daves trust Sam with the purse strings again and hope he gets it right, or brings in a new manager quick so he's got time to bring in the players he needs?
Also, it feels pretty muggy to be pinning all our hopes on Andy Carroll returning from injury, but even if he doesn't set the world on fire, his presence up front was a huge help last season in opening teams up and allowing our midfielders and fullbacks to contribute to the goal tally.

Not really. Mostly Chelsea being poor (except Schurrle).
This is why I try to never be cocky about wins.

Today is a really shit day for big teams, we lost, Chelsea lost and City drew. Hopefully Sunderland will get something out of Spurs' game.
Arsenal are better than all of those teams.

Don't do this. Stay silent and humble. 1 game at a time, don't get involved with the riff raff. We have Everton 1st.

It was nowhere near on target bruv
2 assists (for me) and a goal in a pretty average performance, good enough for me
Sakho was great, Coutinho getting back to his best, Sterling really good aside from end product (pretty big aside though), Allen kept things ticking well, Mignolet is a beast (sorry Arnie, I woz wrong), Johnson should just whip it in more often
Nice to see Kelly get some time, and Gerrard's injury is a worry. Nolan is a cunny.
