Ive never said any different, ive only pointed and laughed at you and Robbo practically wetting yourselves at the start you made and getting all these grand aspirations off what was 2 (3?) games played at the time.
As I said and still stick by, come Christmas the top 3 will be made up of us, United and Chavski.
What about in May??
Much the same tbh, the league will be won by one of those 3 and thats it, no one else has even nearly a chance.

I really fail to understand why everyone writes off arsenal?? What have Liverpool got that Arsenal haven't? Experience in winning the Prem......nope?
So i'm a dick for thinking we may have a good season after only 3 games but everyone else can write Arsenal off after 3 games?? Same thing no?

It's not that we are writing them off after one game though. We are writing Arsenal off after 4 seasons of fuck all.

Im sorry, how many of your players were first teamers when you last won the league?
And we arent writing you off after just watching the last 3 games, we are doing it after watching you the last few seasons and looking at the transfers you have made this summer.

Not according to one of your biggest shareholders who will know more about the state of the finances than you or me.

Arsenal and City will be above Spurs.
Their start is similar to Arsenal, they have done great in the first 4 games but that really wont reflect things come May.

spurs just have a bit more depth. city have too many individuals to call a team i reckon. wont quite gel quickly enough for them then it will be too late.
i dont see there being many points between 3rd and 6th though. man u and chelsea then the pack of teams trying to keep up. just my views, remember im a championship man this season.

Nah, we'll be right up there again, we've had a bad start but its nothing that we cant pull back over the next 34 games.
Other than losing Alonso (and ive no idea if this Aquilani will step up to the mark to replace him yet), we added a lot more quality in Johnson.
My main concern is keeping Torres and Gerrard fit, they were both out for massive parts of last season and I do think thats what cost us (well, not having good cover is what cost us really). We havent done a thing about the cover, so keeping them fit is a must.

From a non tinted sunglasses persons view Chelsea look the strongest this season.
Man U havent replaced Ronaldo, they are still adjusting.
Liverpool don't have enough depth, one or two injuries to major players and they look fucked.
Arsenal have started well, certainly much better than i expected and are a bit unknown atm. Not sure if they can keep it up all season though.
Man City are still gelling, i dont rate Mark Hughes. Top 5 but nothing better
Tottenham have had a great start but they will struggle to keep it up all season, will probably push Man City hard for 5th

I normally will watch any football that's on, beats any of the other guff that's on the box.
Stuck a fiver on Newcastle tonight before I realised they have no strikers
