Here is hoping. Bring all the Tarquins down a peg or two
Just back from the Emirates and a bit disappointed having gone 1-0 up we couldn't hold on, but then again it would have been unfair on a very good Everton had they come out out with anything less than a point.
I'm not sure why you think we Arsenal fans are as a group certain of title success , nothing could be further from the truth. Certainly not as far as the fans I mix with, which face it are those who turn up each game and go away too.
I hope we will be good enough to win the title but recognise that that may still be a stretch for us. However, I can at least enjoy the fact that after 15 matches, we are 5 points clear.
As for next Saturday, please refer to my previous posts on the subject. We have yet to qualify for the CL and expecting us to go to the Etihad only 48 hours or so after getting back from a tough game at Napoli is an ask too far. You should win in a canter.
We don't have the squad to rotate in key positions, so we are no way favourites for the title. You guys are, rightly so.
Anyway, I have my ticket for the Etihad and staying in Knutsford the night before. I can recommend Man Zen if you like Chinese.
Having said all that, I do have a sneaking feeling we will beat Chelsea at the Emirates on the 23rd. I hope so. Those cunts are only marginally less obnoxious than Spurs and Man Yoo.
PS Tarquins?..........perleese...can't you think of something better? ;^)
