Not sure I agree with Wenger about Scholes having a dark side, maybe he needs to look at himself

Well Scholes clearly does commit some bad tackles now and then, more often than normal, I not sure many others would disagree with that.

Also so what about the 10 men? It's not like Arsenal were not bossing the game and were already ahead. I also don't think anyone is using the scoreline as a reason to be cheerful, more the fact that Walcott seems to have improved a lot over last years dreadful season.

"Now and then or more often than normal" ?

Scholes can't tackle for toffee, it doesn't mean he has a dark side.
I quite like Wenger, but at times he does talk some drivel.

35 year old world class midfielder and he still can't tackle? *******s. Wenger's opinion isn't anything new, there are many pundits, fans, players, journalists and whoever else who aren't naive enough to buy in to the whole "he can't tackle" charade. He can't tackle because he doesn't want to and that's part of his style, it's not some charming deficiency in his game. It is his game.

I find it quite funny that Wenger lavishes immense praise on Scholes and yet some people feel the need to pick up on the minor negative point Wenger also spoke of. Not unusual though i guess.

Season is going to be even crazier that the last one at this rate. Third 6 - 0 this weekend!! Also, the more surprising of them.

I had villa to win on an accumulator, need to stop doing those. On the other hand I have a £10 on Bob Bradley to become Villa manager before this odds shortened (so 9/1).

Oh c'mon United, at least keep up the pressure on Chelsea. Dropping points this early to them is poor.

Just the city-liverpool game to play so only Chelsea who have got the maximum from the first two games

I thought this season would be wide open, and I have not been proved wrong yet.

Away at Fulham is harder than the games Chelsea have had though.
