Premier League discussion: Can Arsenal win the Premier League?
It's a big question
The form of Arsenal has impressed everyone and it's start look like The Gunners might be in for the long haul this season.
Let's have a look at what all of the experts and erm... 'non-experts' ae saying:
European Super Football: Reporter: Phil Thomas
Our resident Arsenal fan has had his say. Phil Thomas said:
I'm still not sure to be honest. I would have taken top four and success in one of the three cups at the start of the season. Now, a little part of me thinks we can win the title. The big tests will come in March and April. That's when previous title bids have faded away in the past.
The Guardian: Journalist: Nick Ames
The Guardian's football coverage remains very popular. This is what their Nick Ames said:
It augurs well when the breaks start going your way. Aaron Ramsdale knew it, judging by his fist-pumping reaction to Patrick Bamford’s penalty miss at Elland Road; Mikel Arteta almost certainly did, if his visible ecstasy at seeing Leeds correctly denied another go in injury time is any measure. For the second time in 72 hours Arsenal rode their luck in navigating a tricky away assignment and with each banana skin avoided the sense grows that they are on to something special.
It's hard to believe that their last title success was in 2004. Who remembers that incredible campaign. Watch the video above from the Premier League.
Daily Mail: Journalist: Daniel Matthews
Even the Daily Mail thinks they can do it. Their Daniel Matthews said:
There are two ways of looking at a single, indisputable fact: last week Arsenal were second best at Bodo/Glimt and Leeds but ground out two 1-0 wins. Is that evidence of a team riding their luck, for whom reality will eventually bite? Or does victory on those tough trips signal a team developing new grit and mettle?
Recent matches
It was their 1-0 win over Leeds United that has got people seriously asking this question. To win the title, it's clear you need a bit of bottle. That win at Elland Road gave plenty of evidence of that.
