Meanwhile, in North London (continued)...




Well Arsenal have now played Liverpool at Anfield and last season's champions Manchester United (who are currently at their most formidable) at home. And we did not lose to either of those sides (obviously we didn't win either, but let's not quibble).

Both teams created chances in the second half and it's a pity Arsenal couldn't score after the first equalizer from Cesc Fabregas. If I'm brutally honest, Arsenal still appeared to be a bit naive at times today. We need to be more effective and show more ruthlessness - but that will come in time with this young side.

Not sure about the substitution of Theo Walcott for Eboue, as the latter was doing great in the second half and the former's poor defending helped Man U with their second goal, although goalie Almunia was also at fault in my opinion.

Can Arsenal still win the Premiership? It's going to be hard - let's not forget Chelski lurking in the wings....who remembers Jose "the special one" now? The Blues are just as big a threat as in previous years. And then we should consider Blackburn.
Actually, there are plenty of tough games ahead...........bring 'em on!
Arsenal 2-2 Man Utd
