Are Teams Starting To Fear Arsenal Again?
One of the saddest effects of our poor form during 2011 has been seeing how lesser teams no longer fear us.
The psychological advantage of having most opponents assume they would get nothing out of playing us has been whittled away by a series of unfortunate events.
Throwing away a four goal lead at Newcastle; losing to relegation-bound Birmingham in the Carling Cup Final; league defeats to the likes of West Brom, Stoke and Bolton:
All these and more have turned our shiny armour of invincibility into a tattered and battered old coat of rusty chain mail, pock-marked with holes.
