To be fair, both Liverpool and Tottenham have also been fairly inconsistent so far this season. Spurs weren't great against us, and got battered with fuller strength sides than we've had by both City and Utd earlier on in the season. Beating a 9 man Liverpool 4-0 was their highlight this season, but it took them going down to 9 men for the goals to start pouring in.
We've been consistently good since the Manchester games, where we had no holding mids, and two lightweight players in the middle one of which who didn't want to play. You'll see had you properly watched the Liverpool game how good we were in the first half an hour, and we we played better 11 vs 11 than we did when they went down to 10 and 9. We've played well in the last 4 winning them all.
Arsenal are good enough to improve, and 7ish points isn't that much to make up over 30 odd games. Let's see how Tottenham cope when their best right-back, goalkeeper, centre-back, and centre-mid get injured. You say we didn't invest, yet while we bought 5 players at the end of the window, you bought Scott Parker and... Emmanuel Adebayor. The most inconsistent striker in the league IMHO; he always was at Arsenal too. He drifts in and out of games and seasons. Oh, and you kept an unhappy player. #Winning
Arsenal may be good enough to improve, but what evidence do you have to suggest they will? You've been very poor since February, leaking goals and not playing well. With your best CB, RB and CM out, it doesn't look like its going to get any better does it? Oh and we have squad depth and class, which yours does not. If Walker gets injured, we can play Corluka, Dawson and Gallas are injured, so we play Kaboul and King, still with Bassong on the bench. If Sandro gets injured we play Parker. You invested, but poorly. This summer we've bought, Friedal, Parker, Adebayor, 2 young prospects, and effectively a new signing in Walker, strengthening our entire spine of our team. Adding quality, unlike some of your signings.
Was Adebayor inconsistent when he scored 30 goals for you? Or for the fact that he's scored about 64 in his last 130 odd.
We kept our best player in Modric, and he's fine now, look at the way he's playing... You sold your captain, and only other advanced playmaker in Nasri. #Ambition.
