It is the beginning of the new month and like usual I will make some analysis of Arsenal performance last month and compares it with 2 season before. Since returning from international break, Arsenal have leave their brake behind and only have an accelerator pedal to press. After a succesive defeat by WBA and Chelski, the international break is much anticipated hoping it will revuvenated the lad. Unlike previous international break and previous season, all the Arsenal players involved in the international fixture are impressive and earn themselves a lot of praise from the national team coach. And for a change Cesc are not fit to join the Spanish camp which is good because we won't hear about the Barca DNA news. After returning the fortune seems change as Arsenal have won all the 5 matches. So how was it compares to the last 2 season?
2010/2011 Season,
October look promising for the lads. Arsenal gain 9 points from the possible 12. A 2 nil defeat at Chelsea might have give the lad something to think off. Overall points, Arsenal earn 20 out of possible 30 points with 6 win, 2 draws and 2 lost.
2009/2010 Season,
This year, October didn't look good. Arsenal won 2 but lost another 2 accumulating 6 points. A defeat against Sunderland away and Chelsea at home. Head to head result comparison, Arsenal only managed 6 points out of 12 with a lost to Chelsea and Man City. Overall points until October, Arsenal have 22 points with 7 wins, 1 draw and 2 lost.
2008/2009 Season,
October look okay this season. With 2 wins and 2 draws, Arsenal have 8 points. Head to head comparison, Arsenal only managed to gain 3 points out of 9 with a lost to ManCity and West Ham. Arsenal didn't play Birmingham that season as Birmingham was relegated previously. Overall points, Arsenal have 20 points with 6 wins, 2 draw and 2 lost.
Arsenal didn't do much better in term of total points this season but head to head, Arsenal are much better and this season Arsenal have more points in the October compares to last 2 season. Another things also, last 2 season Arsenal start losing players 1 by 1 starting from the international break but this season Arsenal are welcoming back their players from injuries 1 by 1.
Things does look rosy for November. November have been a challenging month for Arsenal for many season. If Arsenal succeed in November, Arsenal have certain have the better chances winning the title this season.
Next month fixture is against Newcastle H, Wolve A, Everton A, Spurs H and Villa A. November will be a good platform to keep the accelerator going to the challenging December. And really looking forward the arrival of RVP and Ramsey to the squad.
