I didn't watch the match. I just woke up and checked the match result in www.arsenal.com, and I am quite disappointed to see the result. I didn't expect Arsenal gets a draw in this match. I was hoping for a win, definitely.
After the draw match, Arsenal is 8 points behind Chelseas now. Do you think Arsenal still has a chance to be the winner in this season? What do you think about the match?

Burnley has a unbelievable home stadium. They even beat Red Devils.
But that's not alibi. Gunners expand the distance with Chelsea and ManUtd they just minimized last week

i guess arsenal still are in the title contention and burnley have proved once again that they are tough to beat on their home. Both played equally good but a win would have made arsenal to close the gap with chelsea. Overall it was slightly disappointing result.

looking at Burnleys home record so far it was always going to be a tough fixture, although a win would have made me happy.
Its going to be difficult to win the league with such results. I'm still hopeful because this year the premier league is much more competetive and all the top teams have lost matches so far.

Arsenal still have chance of winning besides the blip. Arsenal have enough quality to compete against the top team. They were losing because other teams know how to play against team like arsenal. Just stop them from playing their normal games.

I thought Arsenal would probably win, but I'm glad that Burnley managed a point. From what I've read about the match (I was watching Spurs vs. City), Burnley were unlucky not to win...
I think their home record is really impressive, because of the atmosphere in the stadium - and they are a very gritty team. I hope they stay up!
I don't think Arsenal will win the league (though I want them to) - they are not consistent enough. After beating Liverpool, they really ought to have secured three points tonight.
Plus - they have several injury worries.

same here. i woke up and checked the results, and tbh, i am pretty disappointed. we're not riding on the momentum gained from winning liverpool, and we've just cut the gap only to have it open wide again with other teams all winning. very disappointing indeed
