Decline of Arsenal?

If you're an Arsenal fan, it may just be the time to worry. A draw to AC Milan, followed by a draw at Birmingham has docked a lot of confidence from the Gunners which has clearly been displayed by a rather disastrous and slack performance that ended in a draw, which leaves them a mild one point ahead of champions Manchester United. Nothing could be found going right for the gunners. The one-two's were off the mark, the striking was ordinary, the long crosses had no effect and they managed to concede an own goal. The fact that they scored a last minute goal, remain unbeaten at the Emirates and lead the league may boost their spirit and give them some hope of continuing their title chase. But it is yet to be seen. Another worrying fact for the North Londoners is the form of United and Chelsea, who haven't lost a league game in a while now. Arsene Wenger has also mentioned the victimisation of Arsenal, and the tactics opposing teams are implying to lower the class of the gunners.
This could also play a part in the degradation of Arsenal's football. I reckon the Gunners are just passing through rainy weather(a bad phase) which will hopefully end at the San Siro in 3 days.
With hopes high and fingers crossed, its goodbye for now. Thank you.
Gunner!
