They are, but have a look at their bench. They have nothing there. They will start to struggle when they have to start rotating. They only have about 14 decent players in the squad.

Seems to be the case, postponed Europa meant the squad depth wasn't tested today but confidence and a winning habit count for a lot.

Not a good audition for the Leicester job, assuming he wants it.

Arsenal are doing what they do
Beat the teams they should beat
Lose to the teams of similar resource to them
It should get them top 4

I think they will get top four. Is that really the end of the world? I expect us to too.

That wasnt a minutes silence...shame on them, Had to cut it short to avoid further embarassment

Fully agree
They should get into the top 4 if they keep on beating the 14 teams that are worse than them

What makes you say that?
To challenge for the title you have to beat your rivals. Their history and recent form suggests that’s something they struggle with.

It’s always this way though, going back to Wenger (not even late Wenger). They are much better in the first half of seasons, it reaches a peak when they beat us at home in early winter. I agree they have been impressive but the pressure is off. They bottled last season when under the gun.

I don't think so. They have 13/14 very good players.
After that there is a huge drop off (see today's bench, not just the 15 year old) - it's a long, tough season in England, esp with Europa League too.
That's the first result this season that has impressed me, was expecting to see some dropped points today.

Arsenal played well
Brentford were awful
Some of it was on arsenals play
Sole of it was on how slow and lacklustre Brentford were

They've done well beating all the teams they're expected to beat. Not all top four contenders will do that, especially for the full season. And Arse are definitely a top four contender.
Their opening fixtures have been very favourable, though. October will be the first real test for Arse, with tricky fixtures against us and Liverpool, as well as EL matches in between. If they come out of the other end of October with the same monentum, I'd start to worry.

Well, Liverpool don't look quite right to me, Chelsea will be inconsistent, Man Utd are an improving side and we are getting good results out of average performances (which is great but possibly not sustainable). So I just feel so far the goons have looked the most impressive of the rest. They don't really have many tough away games until the 2nd half of the season and hopefully their "history and form" in that area will catch up with them but at the moment they look very good.

There is logic in what your saying
But getting the tough names out the way is much better than having them after a World Cup IMO
