Arsenal are in fine form
Since the 2-0 loss at the hands of Chelsea, Arsenal have ramped it up, at least in the league. They have been scoring goals for fun and even wiped off the disappointing losses in the Champions League with great victories over Manchester United and Everton. The Carling Cup exit might have been a shock result, a bigger issue being the losses of Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain but Arsenal showed, as in the weekend that they have capable replacements and with them buoyed by their position in the league table, who can bet against them doing well against Munich, who themselves were held to a 0-0 draw in their last Bundesliga game, the first time they failed to win a Bundesliga game this season.
