Arsenal (A) | Post Match Thread

Dias was very good last night and made a very good block in the second half. We need that aggression at the back to push on till June. Think we’ve lacked leaders with him and Stones being out of the team and have been a bit standoffish with our defending, we sort that we win the league.

Not sure how we are top, it is remarkable.

Because we fight to the end....can't win every game but it's the long haul that wins.

Bit of luck and Championeees

Explain please, interested in this.

Perhaps alluding to them buying Jesus and Zinchenko,which gave us the cash to get Haaland.

Although why we bothered when we have infinite funds to draw on from the oil money I do not know.

It's baffling. We've stuttered, it's been one step forward two back, trying different formations, bedding new players in. At times we've looked brilliant, others awful. We have however hung on in there as Arsenal have been getting all the plaudits and racking up the points. Football eh? Hopefully we now kick on until the end of the season.

So chuffed for Jacky boy and didn't he love it. A well made and selfless goal, he finished it well. Keep up the good work you cheeky likkle Brummie.

To be honest I didn’t see anything tonight in their performance that makes me think they are going to win the league. They were ok but Arteta’s mad behaviour is starting to rub off on the team. I don’t think they have the experience.

Lack of experience is a big factor. We’ve been there a million times now and it shows. Super City.

Was a bit disappointed in Clichy taking sides.

Us - Arsenal, Them - City

That is disappointing. I don't understand why players who've played for both clubs in a significant capacity don't just stay neutral.
As against that, Kolo Touré was one of the guests on the OS show with Nat Pike, and he was clearly basking in being a former City player at full time. Despite having played many, many more games for the Arse.
Still remained fairly objective in his analysis at half-time. Which is fine by me.

Will there be an Alternative Commentary? I haven’t seen any for a while and miss them. :-)
