Can Arsenal Challenge for the Premiership Title?

Last weekend saw arsenal go second in the premier leage. Thanks to the rarest goal from Sagna Bacary and the sleek move by Denilson which helped skipper Fab to slot home the evening's seond.

That means Arsenal are just two points behind the champions but it also means that Man Uunited is on their heels. We saw last year when arsenal appeared to overhaul Chalsea only crumble in the later stages. The question i keep asking myself is whether Arsene's Men have the spine to mount a challenge for the title this season. Personally, i think that they still lack the midfiel lynch pins and their rear guard is too porous. Those those areas coupled with the lack of decisive finishing wll leave arsenl trophyless this yet again.

The defence is equivalent to the roots of a tree which forms its foundation. No matter what, if the roots of the tree are are deep in the ground, nothing will shake such a tree. Gales may beat it but will still remain unmoved. This sort of foundation is currently non-existent in our beloved arsenal.
The premier league this season may well bring surprises is the current performances contue.

My verdict is that the boys are nolonger the boys, but they are not real men as yet so i hope that mr Wenger drafts in some muscels com january window.
