And Leicester won with a counter attacking style, while Arsenal are generally taking the game to the opponent with a high pressing style. Might they limp to the finish line and barely beat a bunch of down teams? Sure, lot of season left. But right now they look great, it's not a flukish run, they are outplaying virtually everyone they've played this year.
But we all get it, it has to be deeply painful for Spurs fans right now. The last five years of finishing ahead of Arsenal, Arsenal being pure banter and....oh yeah, Spurs won nothing. Now Arsenal might win a major trophy after that period, with a young, up and coming team, while Spurs future doesn't look so hot. Right now it looks like top four is gonna be a struggle for Spurs, again looking abysmal against Villa. It's gotta suck being a Spurs fan right now, even more than usual.

Well it can be both. Spurs are dreadful and Arsenal are overrated. It’s not mutually exclusive, and just because I think their record is better than where it should be doesn’t mean I think Spurs are incredible. I have no idea why you keep being that up as some great argument for why Arsenal is where they should be.
And sometimes struggles as a sports fan are what you get. It’s part of the deal. I get that you support Abu Dhabi FC and as a result you guys just buy yourselves out of conundrums that other sports organizations face, but we aren’t all on the same bandwagon.
