With reference to the recent Premiership results, Arsenal may top the table again, despite some unwanted loss that almost saw them dropping to the 4th position in the league table. After a desirable 30-straight Premiership win that saw them beating the records of rival, Manchester United, Arsenal were turned to a resort for acquiring points in what was referred as an almost reverse that nearly made things mysterious for them.
Arsenal recently defeated Newcastle 1-0 in Highbury to consolidate their 2nd position in the league, thanks to Sylvain Wiltord’s first half goal. This was made realistic when Liverpool lost 0-1 to Middlesbrough and Manchester United also lost 0-1 to Manchester City. Though, these results did not alter the position of Liverpool, but have reduced the point difference between Liverpool and Arsenal, from four to one.
Arsenal can still retain their fit if players like Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkhamp, Nwankwo Kanu, that have been silent in their previous matches could live up to expectations, and bear in mind the potentials desired from them by their fans.
Arsenal’s manager, Arsene Wenger who at one time, disclosed that his team will finish top of the league without losing a single match, has been made quiet for some while as things just couldn’t go the way he planned or thought. He still have a chance to resume his team’s winning ability if only he will take note of the fact that he has the boys that can deliver, just as they did last season, when they took the bulls by the horn.
