Sucks bad for Arsenal then, as that means we have to play two catch up matches.

Meh, we're three points behind Chelsea now and looking good to make a storming run home. And it looks like Sol Campbell will be back to help win the title. :rnr:

Well yes I am fairly sure they did, but they just lost to Reading during the week in the FA cup.. Now that is almost as embaressing as the Premier League holders losing to Leeds.

Top teams? Chelsea are the only 'top' team apart from Arsenal. Liverpool are royally fucked, and Man U are no where near what they once were.

Yeah its an interesting draw, but if we get through it then there's not much to stop us. Chelsea are still vulnerable and if we can knock them over i don't see too many stumbling blocks.

We're playing better football than any of the other teams at the moment (and winning), so the rest of the pack's got to catch us. The re-introduction of Campbell can only be a good thing.

I lost all interest in the A-league this year, since Adelaide United pulled a Liverpool.

Hmm, I wonder was that an offer or did Everton not like him?

Oh well, off to join Kewell I think.

For once I can stay up and watch this game without knowing I'm going to be stuffed for work on Monday, as I have it off! Woot.

Come on 10-0 to the mighty Arsenal. =D

I love it when your team plays like a bunch of two year olds and still gets the 3 points!

0-2 against Bolton, and I'm predicting much of the same when they visit Arsenal on Wednesday. Although hopefully we will be a lot more composed, easily could have lost this one, probably should have drawn it, if it wasn't for Almunia putting in his first good game of the season.

Indeed, he must be the best player in the EPL at the moment.

Vermaelan is definitely the biggest surprise of the season, he dominates the defensive area.

Just miss our world class striker in RVP.

Next season we will go unbeaten. :bigglasse

Arsenal were a game down, and usually reasonably close to the top of the table even while being a game down, but no one ever said anything about that, and then I go to the EPL website, and the first thing I read is 'Arsenal go top, BUT CHELSEA ARE A GAME DOWN!!!!!!!!' :P

Easily beat Liverpool, should def beat Villa and Sunderland, Man U is at the Emirates, and we should have beaten them at Old Trafford, so that should be another win, and we will park the bus at the Bridge, and pull out a point, and then from there on we have a free run to the title.
