we will win the league.
This team is still full of average players who can never be relied on when the going gets tough.
This coupled with Wenger's total lack of sense regarding team selection and making substitutions. Why does he always wait until the 70th minute to make a change? Even if we are getting destroyed he will not make changes earlier.
The signing of Xhaka makes no sense. The guy looks totally lost out there and for 35m what an absolute shambles!! Clearly we should have bought a top forward with that money and the money spent on Perez.
Playing two defensive mids, Coq and Xhaka has done literally nothing to improve us defensively. We are still conceding plenty of goals and giving the opposition room to run around our midfield.
Guarenteed we will finish third or fourth this season and you all know that.
Deluded if you think

What is Xhaka then? He's not an attacking midfielder, he's not box to box. Frankly he seems like a player that we didn't need to spend 35m on!!

“Deluded” if you think Arsenal are not in with a chance of winning the league.
Come January, and if we are out of sight, fair enough, can then make a reasonable assessment.

I can't stand these knee-jerk reactions because of one defeat. Totally over the top. We are clearly better than years gone by and able to cope with injuries due to squad strength.
Suggest the OP's opinion is based on 17 year old Twitter users rather than actually attending any matches.
We are improved and I can see no reason at all why we won't be right up there until the end competing.

It’s typical of the sense of entitlement adopted by some. Arsenal will lose games, just like our rivals will too.
It’s strange that (in general – on here anyway) football fans can run down their own side/players, (when engaging with fellow supporters).
But as soon as rival makes similar criticisms, fans will in turn, defend the very same player(s) they previously panned…
Strange lot football fans sometimes

Arsenal 7th for shots and 7th for shots on target but 2nd for goals Arsenal 7th best for shots against them and 8th best for shots on target against.
