Arsenal are the best team in the league. They are easily the faves to win the league again. Liverpool, Leeds and Man U (and of course the Chelsea) are looking like decent top contenders, but each side has its problems. In defence and up front we measure up to the Arsenal. I think Henry has the slight edge on JFH, Eidur and Zola, but the Chelsea strikeforce can hold its own with the Arsenal one, and although I feel a CB's are slightly better than the Arsenal ones, our full backs are erratic at best. So overall I think our defence is comparable. In the middle, arsenal are awesome. Pires and Ljunberg are great players, our wingers Zenden, Gronks and De Lucas have a way to go to reach their level. Lampard is good, in fact is the only mid player for us, who I'm totally happy with. Petit is a good player, but seems only able/willing to play one in every 6 games, and then whinges he needs more rest. At least Viera actually STARTS most games Our lack of real depth and quality in the midfield is the real difference between us and Arsenal. On current form...from the games I've seen Arsenal Chelsea - Leeds Liverpool Man U
