I must say since the first two games of the season the progress made by Arsenal under Emery has been great to see and to be fair to the team we played well in that match away to Chelsea. The performance against Liverpool was definitely an encouraging one, I feared that we might succumb to wave after wave of their high pace, high energy attack but we fought hard and controlled large part of the game.
Obviously if you are going to be serious challengers then you have to beat teams like Liverpool at home at the least but Arsenal are a work in progress but so are Liverpool, Klopp has had them for 3 yrs, Emery has had them for 3 months (I am only counting professional games from start of season) and we are only 4 points behind them. The defence is still a real problem, if we can find our Van Dijk in the Jan or summer window, we can be real contenders next season
Torreira is a beast
