I am sure that I am not the only Arsenal fan who fears that the Gunners will show our usual inconsistency this weekend, by failing to match the brilliant level of performance that we showed to get a rare win over a highly rated Tottenham team last weekend, and with an away game against Burnley up next anything less than a very good performance from Arsenal is unlikely to see us win.
Sean Dyche has made Turf Moor a fortress for the Clarets for some time now and despite the fact that their home record so far this season has not been quite as impressive as last time, when they only lost six Premier League games through the whole campaign, they are still very hard to beat there and have also started to do the business on the road as well.
That is why they are currently seventh in the EPL table and are only below Arsenal because of our superior goal difference. Hopefully this will make Arsene Wenger and the players fully focused for the game on Sunday6, but I have a horrible feeling that we will not see the same desire, determination and attitude that saw us beat Spurs.
It would not be the first time in recent years that Arsenal have been disappointing after a great result and failure to win at Burnley would be a big blow that would all but end our title hopes. If, however, the Gunners carry on from last weekend and blow Burnley away, I reckon we would have to start believing that this season could be a happy one for us Gooners.
What do you guys think?
