Pardon me for sounding rude, but I think that is just down to the top teams in the premier league being far worse than the top teams in Spain and Germany.

obviously i am disappointed with the result today, but i am not too worried about the 7 point gap behind arsenal, as i said before arsenal will drop a lot of points in december and that gap will disappear. i can imagine it will be neck and neck at the top between 4 or 5 teams by january, hopefully united will make a couple of signings in january...
Yes and no. Mostly, it's just a case of the other teams being tactically naive in La liga. A lack of defensive discipline, so to speak.
EDIT; The defending in the Bundesliga is worse though.

Cruijff with his famous turn on the left, Boruc with his "move" versus Arsenal on the right.

Not true. The premier league has had 4 champions league finalists over the past 10 years. That trend will continue over the next 10 years. Contrast to two teams from Germany and one team from Spain.
The 6th team in the premier league won the champions league.

People said we will drop a lot of points in November.

I think it also has to do with consistency, both managerial and with the actual squad; City constantly revamps their squad, Spurs have completely changed their starting XI and formation, United doesn't have the quality in midfield and both their and Chelsea's old guard is fading, Chelsea has a bunch of young, fairly selfish attackers, Liverpool haven't decided their formation and the experimentation has cost them points, Everton are trying to play possession, pretty football without the right players, and we (Arsenal) are better off then most but Ozil is still adapting and they have been plagued by injuries. I mean, just look at Southampton; on paper, their time belongs nowhere near the top three, but thanks to consistency, solid play and good tactics they've been able to pull off upsets against teams in transition.

And that, ladies and gentleman, are why they are called Spuds.
Thought United would have won that one, maybe Moyes is actually having an effect.
Arsenal don't have the easiest of Decembers. Everton at home, City away and Chelsea at home in a row followed by 2 more away games, one to Newcastle. Very possible dropped points, next month will be a good test for Arsenal! Either way I look at it, I'm much happier having the Arse in the top 4 than Spuds, too bad City got back in, but Aguero is too good.

Tottenham Hotspur? An interesting name. 9 goals already, wow. We should sign him. What is his transfer fee?
Didn't you guys say that about November? Always seem to imply that Arsenal are a disaster just waiting to collapse. They've been the best team in the country over the last 38 league games. They've shown consistency, they've passed their "tests".

Poor Lamela...
What about him? It's not like he's a class above the rest of the team, far from it.

Someone should do a list without penalties.

No, but I actually like(d) Lamela, that's all.
