The heyday of the Invincible Era seems to be making a dramatic return. Even with losing valuable players like Samir Nasri, Cesc Fabregas, and Gael Clichy over the last few seasons, Arsenal has achieved phenomenal game after game. Is manager Arsene Wenger a miracle worker, or is there some magic at work?

Some say that Arsenal’s latest midfield is the secret weapon shooting the team upward. The midfield has been operating at lightning-fast speed and having a knack for being exactly at the right place at the right time. In soccer, just like contractor estimating software or Instagram, getting things done quickly and in style can give you superpowers.

Tasting the Glory

Arsenal has achieved a series of wins lately, including the recent September 23^rd game at Etihad Stadium against Manchester City. The game ended in a 1-1 draw, and Arsenal claimed the first point at the City’s home field in over a year and a half. This dramatic win is one of the latest  Arsenal successes.

Of course, the new blood in the mix isn’t hurting, either. Wenger’s signing of Spaniard Santi Cazorla has proven to be that little something special Arsenal needed. Cazorla has already earned a reputation as one of the best midfielders in the league. He is helping Arsenal become unstoppable.

Lucky Strategies

The good news for Arsenal is they’ve already faced three of the toughest competitors including Liverpool, Manchester City, and Stoke. Doing well against the best in the League both boosts morale and makes the upcoming games a little easier to win. After you’ve taken on the best around, the rest is cake.

Just like a perfect match, some say it all comes down to chemistry. Every player works flawlessly within the “system” and the mutual respect is palpable. Wenger has pulled together a tremendous team with no end in sight.

Shaking the Perfect Team

Unfortunately, the talks about Theo Walcott’s contract negotiations have some fans on edge. Walcott has expressed his desire to stay with Arsenal after his contract expires next year, but is letting the negotiations take a natural course. Some British media outlets claim that Walcott is looking to leave Arsenal and values himself above the team.

Walcott, of course, dismisses those claims and says it’s not about the money and he’s always wanted to be an Arsenal player. Fans are torn about Walcott’s conundrum, and some are wondering if his presence will benefit the team. It’s nearly impossible to again strike the idyllic balance Arsenal has now. A single change might cause a disastrous Jenga tumbling.
