Aaron Ramsey 7 goals and an assist in 8 games.

The scary thing is the goalscoring isn't what he's been best at this season.

Lol, ?zil having a below average game but picks up three assists to take his tally up to four after around 150 minutes. The next highest player has two.

What a player.

Really an awesome run for the GUNNERS. Me & thedon win the poll .

I really enjoyed matching the match,so much of good passing from our team,better than any team's passing obiv. I liked Giroud's nice flicks here & there,created a lot of chances for us,Mesut will he is the Prince now. Just a small question,where are you haters? xD

Man utd without Van Persie = average.

Now if we can just beat the smaller teams, the title is ours.

They got overrun in midfield, Carrick went invisible and Fellaini only came to play in the 2nd half after our 4th goal when we started conceding possession.

Pipe down Anish. Arsenal are looking really good, but City on their day are just leagues above any other side in this league. Well played you Blue men, utter domination.

Where are those chances Rooney and van Persie create for themselves?

As I said Man Utd are doomed if one of the key players get injured. Let's see how it goes.

I didn't see the match but I'm assuming Man City actually played well for the first time in a month? Will watch later.

We are very much in the title race, so not sure what Anish. is saying wrong. Man Utd strugled when they lost one player. We've won all our games recently while having 5+ players injured and a youth player on the wing (albeit a world class talent). Our squad depth is poor but our bench players are better than some of their first teamers, I'm looking at the wings in particular.

Yes Carrick had a his 1st poor game in a long time and Fellani was below par for large periods. But lack of potency on the flanks which is a United hall-mark is becoming a big issue for them now.

That has to be one of the most toothless Utd displays I've seen in a long, long time. City wanted it more and were better in every conceivable area. Good free kick by Rooney and he never gave up, but that was the only 'plus' point.
