Today was such a bad result for us to lose to our rivals in such a manor but what makes it worse deep down for me is how the team played. What can we actually come up with to find the answer to this performance, was there still bruising in the mentality from the Tottenham result which was exposed by a rampant Manchester United who battled and won every ball who set the tempo and tore us to shreds with a crowd giving them that extra in their performance or should we go for the excuse old excuse of we had a weak team?.Whatever the excuse Manchester United look to have wanted this battle more and I suppose every dog has its day but the truth is that we Arsenal are the best team in the country and the table does not lie come the 38th game we will have won the war and they can have beat us 4-0 all they like because we are the best football team playing in this country and will be going around north London with the premiership trophy waved from the top of a bus signing “ we are the champions “.

Short and sweet tonight but remember we can drown this result with a few pints wake up in the morning and we are still 5 points clear at the top!
