Having dropped points from winning positions in consecutive weeks, you can understand why the wider football world has begun questioning whether or not Arsenal have the minerals to hold off the mighty Manchester City in the title race.
They've got a striker who has netted 47 goals in 40 appearances, a squad stacked with world class talent, the experience of having done it all before, easier fixtures and arguably the best manager in the game - they're rightfully favourites.
But unless you support that lot up the road, in which case you're probably green with envy, you should want Arsenal to win the Premier League - for the good of the division. City have won four out of the last five league titles and for a competition marketed as the 'best in the world' one team's dominance can't be healthy.
Arsenal are the opposite of what Man City represent. A club steeped in history who have embarked on a long-term project with a young coach, players, academy products and who generally spend within their means (albeit more than what most clubs can afford).
Everybody has to start somewhere so I don't wish to dismiss what City have achieved under their current ownership. They aren't the first 'medium-sized' club to be purchased by wealthy owners, have a load of money pumped in and begin punching above their weight - but should their domination continue, it would represent a power-shift that's already begun in English football whereby money supersedes all.
Some will argue football has long been this way. Those who spend the most on players usually win but there is so much more to our game. All the things that fans of a certain generation value and hold dear will no longer have the same relevance and who wants that?
I could write you a list as long as my arm of the things I loathe about the modern game but that's another blog for another day.
When Liverpool won their first league title in 30 years they were seen as the good force in English football - a side who had done things in a much more authentic way and whom had proven smart recruitment and great coaching could not only compete with City's moneybags but could prevail over a 38 game season.
Yet for some reason with us, people are waiting and hoping for us to fail. Arsenal haven't received a fraction of the praise that was given to Klopp's side during their charge for the title that season. Instead, we're often branded as 'lucky'. Mikel Arteta is often criticised for his 'touchline antics', we've been told we celebrate wins too much, we've had more FA charges than Pep has had full-backs and people have even resorted to criticising us for not smiling enough at mascots. Oh and now that we've dropped a few points, we're arrogant and lack professionalism - do me a favour!
Maybe it's a good thing that everyone seems to be against us, perhaps that's as big a motivation as you could hope for. Whether we go on to win it or not, Arsenal are back and after years in the dark we're a force to be reckoned with - I guess the hate comes with the territory.
