After we threw away a two goal lead against bitter rivals Spurs and then lost to
Several of the neutral fans have big doubts as to whether we can keep up the pace at the top, but the answer should become a lot clearer by the end of 2010. We have to start improving our results against our other title rivals, but maybe the trip to face Manchester United at Old Trafford a week on Monday is coming at the perfect time for us.
United have yet to lose in the league this season and Arsenal have not tasted victory in any of their last three games at Old Trafford. But we will travel to the Theatre of Dreams knowing a win would see us sitting at the top of the table regardless of how Chelsea get on against Spurs. It is going to be a difficult encounter but, if we can show a little extra belief and be less wasteful up front, a three-point haul is well within reach.
The visit of Chelsea is also looming later in December, so it is going to be a massive few weeks for the club and a true test of our title credentials. I wouldn’t like to predict how many points we can amass from these two key games, but one thing the Gunners can guarantee is drama…lets just hope it’s at the right end!
