Praise for Arsenal’s defence is a tad premature

The in-thing at the moment, aside from rightly praising Robin van Persie for being a goalscoring machine, is to praise our new-found solidity at the back. While results have been good recently, I'd say it's more down to the form of our attack than any miracles happening in defence.

Looking at our form since the defeat at Spurs, we've only actually managed three clean sheets in ten games, hardly awe-inspiring, but victories have covered this up.
