Gooners should be forgiven for indulging in optimism.� With 36 goals in 11 matches, talk of Arsene Wenger's gun slinging side has done much to impress, and you can sense the Frenchman is a few wins away from making some sort of bold prediction, ala the Invincibles.� To be five points from leaders Chelsea with a game in hand, and especially with such a heavily-populated injury list, the Professor must believe his seemingly eternally-young side has the best shot at a domestic title since the Gunners' monumental collapse two years ago.

Vintage Arsenal Goal

4-1 is may have been the final result but judging from the opening 20 minutes of the game, it would be rather hard to envisaged that scoreline. Credit to Wolves and McCarthy for their game plan as they came out firing on all cylinders and chose to take the game to us rather than just contend to defend.

When Robin Van Persie scored Arsenal's third in the North London derby against Spurs, it prompted me to draw comparisons with the Real Madrid legend Raul. He has scored seven goals in the league and been given the role of the top of the Gunners attack.

Despite making a strong start to the season, with Spurs winning their opening four league games, defeats to Manchester United (3-1), Chelsea (3-0) and Arsenal (3-0) have highlighted that the White Hart Lane side still have their work cut if they are to establish themselves at the top end of the Premier League table.

A lot of understandably miffed punters doing the rounds this weekend; message boards, phone-ins and blogospheres crammed to the skylights with Spurs fans giving their two cents on what was ultimately a dismal fist at beating our insufferable neighbours. Some, while still dousing their grazes in TCP, willing enough to put the result into context and move forward; others more likely to dance the fandango of doom, goat's blood smeared across their forehead, wailing until Harry Redknapp's hide is sent packing back to Sandbanks.
