Arsenal have won nine and drawn two of their last 11 games in all competitions.
Arsenal have scored 32 goals in their 10 Premier League games this season.
Arsenal beat north London rivals Spurs 3-0 at the weekend - and manager Arsene Wenger claimed: "We
should have scored more.

We've waited more than five and a half years. So another 37 hours is just about manageable.
But the sense of anticipation surrounding the return of Aston Villa to Molineux encapsulates
exactly why we all want to follow a Premier League club.
Liverpool at Anfield, Man Utd home and away, and Villa at Molineux - the four games that make my
season, make me thrilled to be a Wolves fan in the Premier League.

When Wolves emerge from the international break, the familiar strains of the Z Cars theme will fill
the air at Goodison Park.
How apt - because the current points haul is criminal.
What a fantastic opportunity blown. Eight games, a meagre seven points. Simply not enough.
Now Wolves have their backs to the wall as they contemplate five fixtures against Everton, Aston
Villa, Stoke, Arsenal and Chelsea.

There will be no escape from the Pompey chimes on Saturday when Portsmouth visit Molineux.
But it's inherent on Wolves to keep the alarm bells out of earshot.
I'm increasingly proud of our team, remaining positive about our season, but I will confess to
being a tiny bit perplexed.

I've just looked at the Premier League table
And if a sense of order is starting to prevail after half a dozen games, I'm struggling to find
much to scare me.
What a great feeling built around the really excellent performance on Sunday against Fulham.
A man's performance, to a man, epitomised by the quite fantastic Christophe Berra, left me sitting
in the South Bank, getting re-acquainted with my massively under-used yellow seat, with a contented
smile - and a warm appreciation of what Wolves have done since that stunning day in May that none
of us will forget.

One game down, one victory secured, one bad injury - and we're still no clearer knowing which team
Mick McCarthy will send out on Saturday August 15.
I think there are five certainties for McCarthy's line-up against West Ham - Kevin Foley, George
Elokobi, Michael Kightly, Sylvan Ebanks-Blake and Kevin Doyle.

If you were only allowed to attend one Wolves game next season in the Premier League, what would it
be?
For me, it's the Boxing Day trip to Anfield, provoking magical memories of my trip to Liverpool in
January 1984.
No-one gave us a chance, even though Liverpool were without the injured Kenny Dalglish, as the team
anchored to the foot of the table arrived on Merseyside.

On the day Cristiano Ronaldo decided to run off to Spain rather than face George Elokobi, serious
signs are emerging than Wolves are ready to make their first forays into the summer transfer
market.
And if by this time next week Wolves' Premier League ranks have been swelled by Scott Dann, Marcus
Hahnemann and Nenad Milijas, I'll be a happy Wolves fan.

A weekend newspaper headline suggested Mick McCarthy was going to pick over the bones of North East
football as he builds a team that will hopefully be competitive at Premier League level.
Well this evening, while I listen to a fascinating Radio 5 Live debate involving Chris Waddle, Mark
Lawrenson, Mike Ingham and North East expert Ian Dennis, that thought fills me with absolute dread.

After all the exciting transfer rumours following our title-winning promotion to the Premier
League, finally a fact.
Mick McCarthy has confirmed he's been talking to Sir Alex Ferguson.
But where does that leave us? In reality, precisely no further forward in trying to second guess
the transfer activity of McCarthy, Morgan and Moxey.

So much has changed at Molineux since Wolves won their last Premier League game, exactly five years
ago today.
But one thing remains exactly the same from the team that beat Wayne Rooney's Everton 2-1 to the
team that will line-up to receive the Championship trophy on Sunday.
The 2003/4 team had a fantastic right back, and the 2008/9 team has a fantastic right back.

Some played bit parts, and others were simply magnificent as Wolves finally returned to the top
flight against QPR - a Quality Promotion Result www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A50111...
And my top 10? Sylvan Ebanks-Blake, Michael Kightly, Karl Henry, Kevin Foley, Jody Craddock, Andy

On July 21, 2006, Mick McCarthy walked into Molineux and urged us not to expect miracles.
The MM initials on his jersey did not stand for Merlin the Magician, he famously remarked.
Well 1,003 days later, and with varying degrees of help from 59 footballers
www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/A50112... McCarthy has got us back into the only league worth playing in.
