Good afternoon.Since Arséne Wenger left the club ,I had not seen Arsenal playing in such a great level.I hope they will fight till the end for the ttle.This Saturday Arsenal will have a great opportunity to stay on top if they can beat Tottenham in the Derdy of London.What´s more,on Sunday it will be the Derby of Manchester.Great weekend to watch both matches
It seems that keeping Arteta in charge was a good idea, Arsenal's season looks really promising, they've been playing well, but I still think Manchester City and Tottenham are ahead in the Premier League dispute, but it's going to be interesting...
Realistically, i can Arsenal make top 4 if they maintain this form and maybe a deep cup run/final - theres no doubt they have bought well and Arteta has developed really well under Pep Guardiola into a fine manager.
Buying Gabriel Jesus was a masterpiece of a signing.

I agree that the purchase of Gabriel Jesus was a very good thing for the arsenal, since it boosted his attack. In addition, this was also good for him, since being the undisputed starter, he has managed to show his great level
Good afternoon.Superb performance by Arsenal in the derby, while Tottenham was a mess.Arsenal could have scored more goals but it was a well deserved victory.It is nice to see one of the greatest teams of England playing again in such an amazing way.
As an Arsenal fan, I can assure you no one is thinking of winning the Premier League just yet.
Further, the decline did not start after Wenger but under Wenger. Great though he was initially, his management fell apart for years. Arsenal last won the League in the 2003/04 season and Wenger did not leave until 2018. Arsenal fans will also admit this time last year if Arteta had been fired no one would have been surprised as the start to the season was terrible.
But as last season wore on you could see that Arsenal were putting a lot of things together even if we missed fourth place. Three things came together.
The first was Arteta had proven he is a good manager, then a great preseason which in turn allowed us to bed in some fantastic new signings. Two of which Jesus and Zinchenko had worked closely with Arteta as an assistant at Man City under Guardiola. That said most fans believe one more transfer window will give the correct squad depth. The present team is super talented but we need another pure striker and left back to cover ourselves properly. Injuries will weaken the squad quickly.
At present Arsenal fans are overjoyed and satisfied because the team is playing expansive, beautiful football - the type of football played under Wenger in the 'Invincibles' era. What they are really excited about is under Arteta, the team might end up better managed than under Wenger, with a better infrastructure in place (with Edu and Mertesacker shouldering responsibilities also).
But this early in the season everyone wants to be realistic. Beat the lesser opposition, take a fair share of points from the top six teams, accept the occasional loss and then fight for a top four spot and get back into the Champions League. We'll wait until at least January to really see how competitive we are.
In the meantime we are all just enjoying the team playing the most exciting football in the Premier League.

It's true, it's still too early to know if they can win the league or not, but they're showing a great level of play and that's exciting. But you have to be patient. And I agree that the attack zone needs to be reinforced with another striker, since there is no substitute for Gabriel Jesus.
Good victory yesterday for the Europa League to be leader of group A. As for the Premier League, this Sunday we face a Liverpool team that is not in its best shape, but it is a very tough and complicated opponent. How do you think the result will be?
In my opinion they will fight for the 4th place. Man. City will win again this season and I think that they will do it very quick. For the second place will be a fight between Tottenham and Liverpool and for the 4th place will fight Arsenal, Chelsea and Man. United
But I'm hopping that I'm wrong and we will have a surprise winner this season Arsenal or Man. United 🙂
