Qwiss Saka and Ode are both way below their best but we still won, we had a very marginal VAR call against us, we are solid as fuck. I choose to believe we can only get better.
I think this is the realistic outlook. It's positive we are churning the points without everything that worked last season working. We now have more than one way to win.
I don't think we look like league winners so far, but looking like league winners got us nowhere last season. We're top of the table, which is impressive under the circumstances. It creates the possibility of a benefit if our right side starts working.
What annoys me is we spent a vast sum on midfielders and we're still waiting for Partey to come back in and supposedly save the day.
