and they fully deserved to in outplaying Man U throughout.

Maybe Man U were over-confident because they'd won 5 games against far lesser average/poor sides?

Newcastle picked up an excellent away win btw...maybe all the attention of West Ham buying the two lads from Argentina has upset team unity?

Yep, even though Adebayor is a shocking excuse for a striker, he took his goal well

I am a happy gooner Big Grin, and Henry couldnt score for toffee when he first started for us. I was as frustrated but cannot ignore Wengers faith in his players.

LOL.. Man Utd weren't 'outplayed' at all. Man Utd had the vast majority of possession throughtout, esp in the first half.

As a Man Utd fan, i'm not bitter about it, i just find it hilarious that after a dismal late goal - Wenger claims they can win the prem!! Big Grin That's just hilarious.. Wenger - You won a game, and not convincingly, don't get carried away! Roll Eyes

Looks pretty open to me. There is no reason why Arsenal can't win. T'would be a tragedy, but they can do it.

Possession means nothing if you only pass it sideways.
I thought Arsenal deserved the win for sure, United need to address their midfield O'Shea wouldn't get in most other premiership teams starting 11 same with Fletcher.

Good result for Arsenal, they deserved it.

Loved the expression on Solskjaer's face when Lehmann saved his shot at the end. Big Grin

The game I watched, Arsenal had at least parity in possession. I would be annoyed if Wenger wasnt trying to win the league still after only 4 games that is his job.

Massive, massive exaggeration. We wasted too many chances. Lost possession.

Have nothing against Wenger wanting to win the Prem, but to claim they now can because of the win against Man Utd is laughable.

Arsenal completely outplayed you and 1-0 flatters you.

Its just a response to those that wrote Arsenal off after just 3 games. United were supposed to be the team setting the standard this year. Arsenal have lost one game, there are only 3 teams that havent lost a game yet Portsmouth, Everton and Aston Villa. He was saying it before the united game as well so don't flatter yourselves.

Worst post? Have the mods been alerted to any of yours?? They wouldn't still stand.

Back to the point - Not worried in the slightest. Why would i be? Had an excellent start, losing was inevitable, no teams perfect.

To further add - We had plenty of wasted chances so how you can claim it 'flattered' us is beyond me. The colour green doesn't suit you. Roll Eyes

typical, boring united fan.

Fletcher and O'Shea would not get into the Fulham team if we had a squad fully fit.

The score did flatter you because Arsenal were more than 1 goal better than you. Smile

Well done to Arsenal.

They should have beaten us by even more.

They definitely need a striker.

No mate, Wenger thinks they can win the title because they beat United, AND, although they are in "transition", he knows he's in charge of the best footballing team in the division.

Personally I think it's year too soon. But if Liverpool can't win the Premiership then I hope Arsenal do.
