Many people have claimed that
Arsenal are back in the race to win the
Premier League following their
2-1 win against
Chelsea today, however I don't believe that's the case. The
Gunners now lie just
eight points behind leaders Chelsea and
Liverpool, a margin that can increase to
eleven points if Liverpool can manage to beat
West Ham tomorrow.
William Gallas' recent comments about his
team-mates (which lost him his
captaincy) were
spot on. Arsenal are
not brave enough to win a title. They are too
inexperienced and although I back Wenger's decision to give
Cesc Fabregas the armband, I don't think that will be
enough to win them the title.
Arsene Wenger's men have already been
beaten five times this season and personally I think that's
one defeat too many. I understand that we are not
even half-way through the season, however I feel Arsenal have
lost too many games to go on and
seriously challenge for the title.
Stoke City, Manchester City, Aston Villa, Hull City and
Fulham have all beaten Arsenal this season and let's be honest if you want to win a title you
can't be losing to these kind of teams. Arsenal's
main rivals for the title (
Man United, Liverpool and Chelsea) have only lost
five games between them and I feel Wenger will end up ruing their early season form.
