There was no thought
of looking for excuses or blaming the fact that Arsenal are well and truly
out of the Premier League
title race after losing to Chelsea, well not from the acting Arsenal captain
anyway.
The only downside,
of course, is that the Premier League
title race is now over before the advent calendars have come
out, meaning the focus now moves on to the rather tedious
race for fourth, which only Arsenal care about, and the
race not to be sacked, which Arsene Wenger is not involved in
anyway.
Despite the fact that Arsenal are not
out of the Premier League
title race yet, at least not mathematically
anyway, you will not find many people other than Arsene Wenger and the Arsenal players who are willing to even entertain the possibility that our hopes are not over for another year.
