Feel like everyone who isn't a Birmingham City / Wolves / West Brom fan is rooting for them to keep winning in general.

So good to watch at times and would be epic if they could somehow maintain a title challenge.

First year with the Asian Tour back since 2019, which they've used for a lot of the qualification spots along with some other criteria to get in. Last few years have had a lot of people get done over with visas, travel restrictions etc so numbers have been limited since then. Still developing but the standard is getting better

Definitely not the Arsenal I'm used to watching.

We are really good at suffocating the opposition into having no chances but not great at scoring.

We love Kai and he loves us for getting him out of the Chelsea hellhole.

I'm not crazy for thinking Jesus is the best striker in the league after Haaland right?

Top class ball control, dribbling, link-up play, defensive work-rate from the front, and is sneakily good in the air for being a small lad.

He can't finish like a top striker so I dont think he is in that category

He's amazing at everything else attacking-wise though. Maybe that's enough to make him 2nd best right now tbh.

We get plenty of goals from both wings and CM so everything else he does works out.

There really aren't many world class strikers in the league after Kane left. Maybe just Haaland.

It's a provocative question because there are very few clubs where there is a "pure" established striker who's been getting regular playing time

So yeah he might be 2nd best but if you make the top 10, you will quickly see how shallow the list of strikers who get major playing time is
