Everton smashing Stoke. Wenger was saying it was a good point as they are good at home even though they were there for the taking.

At this rate we'll be lucky to get third. Spuds look strong, Man U are looking better I think.

Well placed for fourth!

Everyone is capable of beating everyone. It's a fascinating season whichever way you look at it. I've no idea what Arsenal team will turn up tomorrow. We got a good hiding the last time we visited the south coast. I don't see that happening again but if we just think it's 'only Bournemouth' then we will be in for a shock.

Here's a question: If Arsenal were in Leicester's shoes now, six points in front, how many of you (hand on heart) think or believe we'd win the title?*

I think Leicester are interesting because the pressure will ultimately increase, but they have the team spirit, togetherness and drive to see them through it.

I don't see that at Arsenal. Good individual players who aren't pulling their weight, but the system is too complicated. Leicester play on the counter, they change it up, Arsenal play predictable, they only change it up when Wenger's run out of ideas.

*As for the question I posed, I don't think this team could do it. Because they always buckle under pressure. They either start a season well then fade, or vise versa. The only way I can see Arsenal winning it is if they take points off Spurs, City and Leicester and peak in March/April. Convincible as it's been a crazy season, but again, Arsenal staying fourth from now until May? It could happen.

For me the difference is not where Leicester are in the table, but the way they play. They seem to play with passion and conviction. Arsenal don't and I don't think they have done consistently for around a decade and seemingly nothing has been done about it.

Yeah, it's that extra something that we seem to lack. Often it seems we do what we do and whatever the result it doesn't matter that much. You don't get the feeling this team is believing its going to win it or that this attitude will change.

Like Ranieri said Lecister are playing without pressure and enjoying it. We could never play without that pressure so it would be hard for us and not fun to watch. Mind you we have not played great footie for about 5 years if that.

Problem is the same thing is said every other week, but we find someway to bottle it so why be happy when we all know the end result.

Since we beat City are boys got cockey thinking they were it. The saints thrashing showed us this. Until out players put in a shift and forget that passing lark once in a while nout will change.

Wenger talks nonsense to cover for his flops. Do not get me wrong Stoke is not a easy place to go there and win. They just know how to frustrate Aw and his team. Everton always beat them think they are Stoke's bogey team.

Flamini starts ahead of Coquelin. Strange decision again.

Ox starts ahead of Campbell and Walcott.

See if it makes a difference in the goal department.

Anyone know what's wrong with our Egyptian? Nothing on pravda. Flamini starts today, Coq is on the bench. The Ox comes in for Campbell. About time he started to earn his corn. All very predictable otherwise.

Elneny's only been here 5 minutes and he's injured already? Bloody hell

No idea. Before the last game on Twitter there were rumours he was out injured but nothing official.

Elneny has just tweeted that his wife has given birth to a baby which might explain why he is out.

Flamini lucky not to be sent off for a two footed challenge.

Ox has started well.
