My Gooner brother proudly boasted that **** were top of the league for longer than anyone else last season. When I pointed out that they weren't top of the league when it mattered he just repeated that they had been top of the league longer than anyone else. Tool.

A fellow sufferer, I see. Chin up mate, you're not alone.

Arsenal are playing quite well, but City have somewhat played into Wenger's hands with this rigid 4-4-2 of theirs. It's understandable if one of City's two wing players had cut inside to nullify Arsenal's numerical advantage in the centre (and thus allowed Fernando to drop deeper into that space between midfield and defense where Sanchez is getting so much free space), but Navas has remained stuck out on the touchline and Nasri seems to have retreated into his shell after the booing, preferring to shy away from the ball instead of seeking it. Somewhat rudimentary error by Pellegrini, especially given that he knew his best defender and organizer of the back line (Kompany) was unfit and, by extension, presumably knew he would have had to play Boyata and Nastasic together in defense, a partnership that's proved incredibly fragile so far.

Look at Emirates Marketing Project's team mate, loads of players out, I dont think they give two ****s about the community shield, whereas Arsenal will probably have an open top bus parade

most of the time, the team that wins the Charity shield has a crap season

I'm sure **** will look like they're walking the title until Christmas, like they normally do. Then we'll see what they're made of this season. Friendlies and Charity shield are pretty meaningless as far as predicting the season, IMO.

I still like Silva the most out of the army of small skilful AMs that have invaded the Prem. Think he's better than Ozil, Cazorla, Hazard, Oscar, etc, etc....

United won it in 2011 – City won the title.
City won it in 2012 – United won the title.
United won it in 2013 – City won the title.
Arsenal won it in 2014…
Just saying 8-[

Every post in this thread so far (including markysimmo's above me) has been about City embarrassing themselves, a theme that I think will be relevant all season...

Impressive. 7 world class talents in that team, 8 soon enough if James fulfills his potential.
