Conventional heirachy almost tossed completely in the trash.
Tottenham rooted to the bottom until today..pro-temp...pending tomorrow's results.
Man-Utd languishing in mid table for several weeks until the last couple.
Arsenal losing 3ce in 11 weeks.But that wasn't the news.The news is who Wenger is losing against this time.
Roll call:Fulham,Hull city and Stoke city!
Arsenal are yet to play any of the so-called top 4.That will change next week when they host MAN-Utd.These two teams have been exemplary in stability and sticking with their managers through thick and thin.However after 5 trophyless seasons,a loss to Man-Utd next week ,while not totally unfathomable may mean Arsene does not inhabit that hallowed zone of safety anymore...calls for his resignation will grow louder.
Liverpool fans found their voices in a truely inspiring start to the season,capping an unbeaten run of 10 games with a sweet victory over Chelsea destroying the latter's long unbeaten home record.
But L'Pool fans will soon discover what Arsenal fans found out perenially to their chagrin:it is simply not enough to beat the big four....you have to put the lower teams away too..or at least avoid stupid defeats against them!..that's how the league is won.
It may be instructive to L'Pool fans that Spurs have already played Chelsea and Arsenal this season.While those games will not be the fondest in the memories of those fans,their teams did not lose.L'pool lost today against a resurgent spurs side...and may look back to this game come May '09 with some regret.
Chelsea should be feared.
Essien,Ballack,Carvalho and Drogba did not start this game.These are certain starters if fit.They have been missing for several weeks,yet Chelsea lead the league with a dizzying goal difference advantage.
Even the incurable Chelsea haters have to give it to the pensioneers this season.
The demolition of sunderland should not be shrugged off.Sunderland are much stronger this season under Keane and have shown discipline.Sunderland have already beaten Spurs away and drawn with Arsenal this season.
All of a sudden,the borin',borin' Chelsea chants of yesteryears seem medieval.Chelsea is already by far the most entertaining side to watch this season...only unlike Arsenal in the last couple,they are winning too!
