I thought West Ham beating Leicester 3-0 was going to be the shock result of the weekend!

Best chance? With what team?
Mate it would be a miracle if we finished top 4 let alone win the title.
PL averaging 3.8 goals per game at the moment, highest since 1930, albeit just 4 matchdays in.
They actually did equal one of our records that seemed invincible:
It’s so important to have physical players
Well this just blew the lid off things. Bloody hell what a scoreline
Why are United linked to Cavani and Sancho when they need an entirely new back five, and to sit their goalie?
Thank goodness for the folks running United and Chelsea. Madness.
I think Pool had a lot on their minds re: Mane's positive test

Actually, only team has. Villa have only played 3 games.
Another plus point from Villa's win is that it takes some of the spotlight off United and relieves pressure on Ole's job. The longer he remains in charge the better.
We're the only ones attempting to win matches via points decision, while everyone is throwing wild haymakers looking for a KO. Might be one of those crazy seasons where defending goes in the bin
Looking at the state of the league, we could go for the title if we properly strengthen the squad today. Let’s not make the same mistake we made in 2015/16 and sit on our hands again while our rivals flounder.

Too late, too much things to do.
Need at least 2 great CMs + one proper striker instead of Lacazette.

I think we might be the strongest defensive team in the league right now. Too bad we're absolutely shit going forward.
It would be ironic if we became the defensive maestros of the league
I've waited 16 years for this moment.

Boring, boring Arsenal.
Bielsa is a great addition to our league. I hope he gets massive backing so we can get more of this...
