The season before last 14 15 we did better with the points than last season even though we came second
from last season we know we conceded many

of this season was to fix the defensive department and the offensive department by introducing a defender to reduce the amount
of goals conceded unless holding is to be the man we havent us
of yet fixed the problem on the offensive department we all know the only offensive player is chuba apkom well else we have not addressed the problem so in reality I do not except Arsenal to finish the season with more than 70 points and personally think minimum point required to win the premier league is 85 points have we got that in our squad it will remain to be seen if chuba and holding are enough for a key to unlock the season we will soon find out but I think MR wenger is gambling with the introduction
of new manageress which lives us with Liverpool and Leicester and who will take the points off united chelsea and city the next 6 games should give us the indication to what may happen to the long run for the new year
