It's a dream scenario come next May - Arsenal top English Premier League Table while Tottenham Hotspurs finishes bottom of the Table.
Most Gunner fans would have realised the stark contrast in the Table positions between Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspurs.
After 5 matches, Tottenham Hotspurs is already 10 points off the pace with two draws and three losses.
Tottenham Hotspurs manager Juande Ramos had insisted his team would need more than 20 matches to find their form. By then, it would have cost him his job if Tottenham is still bottom of the table.
Darren Bent has even claimed he would score 30 goals even though he had only scored a mere 8 goals in the last season.
Even Arsenal legend Ian Wright felt Tottenham owner Daniel Levy might be looking for a new manager based on their past history.
It's justified though for Daniel to expect results this year as Tottenham has splurged out more than $50 million pounds on new signings.
(Martin Jol, the ex-manager of Tottenham, currently bosses Hamburg in the German Bundesliga and Hamburg is placed fourth, just one point of the leaders Schalke 04 after 5 matches. It won't be surprising if Tottenham owner Daniel feels like kicking his teeth now about his decisision to replace Martin Jol when he was having a dry spell at Tottenham if he knows this.)
It's another proof that signing players at overly-inflated prices does not guarantee success.
