With so many young players like Ronaldo, Rooney, Nani, Anderson I'm sure he expects the team to play better every year as they grow in experience and maturity.

Arsenal have lost only the one game. They have, however, only played away to one of their top 4 rivals - the weakest of them, Liverpool. At Anfield they managed only a draw. They have still to visit Old Trafford <i>and</i> Stamford Bridge. Let me explain my thinking in terms of points. Arsenal play Middlesbrough (3 points), Chelsea (0 points), Bolton (3 points), Liverpool (1 point) and United (0 points), giving them a total of 7 points from 5 games. 66+7=73 United play Derby (3 points), Bolton (3 points), Liverpool (1 point), Villa (3 points), Middlesbrough (3 points) and Arsenal (3 points), giving United a total of 16 points from 6 games. 64+16=80. Chelsea play Derby (3 points), Sunderland (3 points), Tottenham (1 point), Arsenal (3 points), Middlesbrough (3 points), Man City (3 points) and Wigan (3 points) giving them a total of 19 points from 7 games. 58+19=77. Obviously this is probably wrong but it's my best guess. Also obviously United or Chelsea possibly both will drop points when they play each other on 26th April. It's just possible, though, that by then Arsenal will be too far behind to take advantage. DISCUSS! OK, GoonArmy. Arsenal have lost only the one game.

Arsenal will walk away with the title. They've only lost one game al season. A couple of draws doesn't change that. It's all wishful ManUre thinking. What a crock of sh*t.
