Arsenal west brom home on sat 3 after a mince pie

Claudius

And although I am happy with the result, it is sad that it took two undeserved penalties to achieve it. We need to buy goals in January.

I'm sorry but that's unacceptable from Cazorla. Lost a lot of respect from him with that pathetic dive. We all like to moan and complain about Bale and Gerrard and any others who dive against us and I don't want to see that in my team. Found it hard to celebrate the goal personally.

Rosicky and Cazorla playing together would be brilliant. 1 touch football and 1-2s all round, pass and move and its best.

I want to see this

Arteta Diaby
Rosicky Wilshere Cazorla

Prolly quite impossible though given that 2 of them is always injured

Rex

Overall a good performance. Players worked harder on defense which is needed. If they can maintain this level of effort we'll climb the table for sure.

Jack was majestic, and Oxpot had his best game ever for us IMO. Positive also from Gervinho. Less composure than Eboue in the final third though.

Rex

The keepy uppy move that almost led to a goal is the best I've seen from an Arsenal side in over five years. That alone made the game worthwhile. Footy at its best.

Rex

As always you heavily under rate what Walcott brings to the team. With this current lot he is the first name on the team sheet of our attacking players.
We couldn't score from open play yesterday despite producing a good overall display. Walcott would've scored yesterday.

How cool and deadly was Arteta from the spot?
Myhill blinked first both times.

Massive three points yesterday.

If we can scramble wins at reading and Wigan we'll be in good shape.

Both winnable

You need to go to all the home games from now on Dula, your menacing presence seems to have dragged a determined performance out of our lot 🙂
What's your take on Cazorla's tumble?

lorddulaarsenal

The bloke next to me said I'll have to go more often in place of the season ticket holder who's ticket I used.

Err couldn't make it out as a dive or not, but hey it's santi. You can't stay mad at him. He was probably just protecting his career like bale does.

Some of the stick gervinho got fom the terrace was epic

Stick on a level with what he gets on here? Poor Gervinho.
He's causes havoc in getting into threatening positions and then it all falls apart for him.

Rex

I like Walcott and he is a top player. One of the best wide forwards in the league. Stupid reasoning to want to improve the squad from the top. Winning things is a squad game. If you want to significantly improve the squad you sell a poor player like Arshavin and bring in a player on the level of Walcott. Just pay the man what he is worth already! Of he wants £100k a week then just give it to him. That isn't even over paying him, that is below market value even.

I like Mertesacker but he needs to stop going mental every time the ref goes for a decision against him. Hate it when players do it and hate it ever more when our players do it, it's pathetic.

Rex

Walcott is a top player by any standards. Should be clear as day if you watch enough football.

Mert going mental is still better behavior than most players at their cool best. He's also right - he gets a tough treatment sometimes cos he looks like he couldn't get there (perfect sliding tackle yesterday, got the ball clean and they got a foul in a bad position for us).
Luckily he did get the call for the hand ball (good call, but not obvious).

Ray

That was some great link up play from the midfield trio.

That's what made me go:

Here's another angle (thanks to arshavin23 from AM):

Anyone else found themselves staring at this triangle for long minutes, waking up saying: this is ridiculous, I gotta stop this. 🙂

Was at the game. Really proud of the effort they all put in. Relentless pressing all over the pitch. Why can we not press like that in most games? Makes little sense - other teams manage it regularly.

Jack was sublime. In fact the 3 maestros finally clicked and were good.

I like the part of him to be honest. I like it when our players shows fight.

The super sunday pre-match show in Singapore, they are discussing about Cazorla's dive now. Peter Reid went berserk and kept shouting he needs to be banned 3 matches and same as violent conducts. Curbishley had to calm him down. Senile old man

FrancisJeffersAwfulCareer

Peter Reid. LOL. What a waste of human.
