Certainly, we don't have quality replacements for Galla and Vermaelen. I was thinking about our strikers and midfielders, I totally forgot about our defense.

Even Fergie was misguided enough to repeat the pundits (check here) http://www.thelondonpaper.com/thelondonpaper/sport/football/sir-alex-ferguson-believes-arsenal-have-no-money views. It's quite comical to now see the pundits backtracking faster than British troops from Dunkirk and, rival players beginning to talk about us as a threat. Even negative talk from rival teams and pundits is, in my opinion, proof that we are worrying them. I'll begin to worry about Arsenal when these people stop mentioning us. Long may it continue.

It seems almost as if he wishes that our key players get injured. As already commented, we have important players injured, but we also have quality players to make it up. ”It will be interesting to see how they cope if they pick up injuries and lose key players.” It seems almost as if he wishes that our key players get injured.

chelsea are great, albeit aging, team at full strength. but it would be interesting to see how they perform if they had half the number of first teamers sidelined that arsenal has had during this campaign.

liverpool seems to have shown they don’t have that type of depth at all.

But chelsea dont have very difficult games during the acn period! But our season changing period will be end of jan beginning of feb where we play utd chavski and liverpool! I honestly think arsenal are going to win the title! People speak about experience but we have a team who has played together for a good few years now and agree with the fact that we have great quality in depth. Chelsea is an OLD team... Go gunners!
