Arsenal(FA Cup Semi Final) Post Match Thread

[Wolfkin]

It pisses me off that we don't shoot more

Nah I disagree with that, we have got so good at keeping the ball we take it for granted, since when are Arsenal happy to let the other team have a the lions share of possession? Exactly never... the ball was in their half for so much of that game you can't say we weren't the better team. The stats flatter them because most all of their chances came from counter attacks that started in their own half, that says it all for me. Our goal came from a counter ironically but that's neither here nor there we were passing it around in their half at will they were as defensive as I've ever seen and Arsenal team.

Pretty similar to the league game at the Emirates, we had more possession, were leading and still didn't bring the result home. Pep knew what to expect and didn't prepare the team well enough.

Maybe but he's also made a lot of mistakes this season - many avoidable ones.

Name them.

Get beat by wankers like arsenal in a semi final and we deserve to be where we are.

good job jesus is nearly fit, silva looked like a dead leg so fingers crossed he'll make it, sergio just looked knackered, its ferna that's a worry looked like his calf

i thought it looked like the back of silva knee ......hope you are right

ferna - well i thought that was cramp - he seemed to be grabbing the back of both calves (it would be very unusual to get a muscle pull in both)

Sergio - yeah thats what i thought

I think we can do without fern but id like to have the other 2

If Jesus wasn't fit for the bench today i cant see him being in the first 11 on thursday...but we can live in hope.....personally you could drop either KDB, Sane or sterling for him.........just not kun based on the last few performances in games

fucked over by ref today, but the substitutions were wierd by pep, best team lost for me.

fuck it, could be worse


On a side fans were a let's say dissapoiment bar some on the 5th tier and that was a minority we were shocking.

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

Well done the F.A

Talk about fucked over by the officials.

Never seen worse in 50 years.

Never been one to get involved in "the agenda", but for the first time ever, not so sure.

If I was Pep, I would have just called the players off, and said fuck you F.A.

P.S. Not a Clichy fan at all, but well played today fella.

Well played Clichy? Are you a) Joking? b) Drunk? Or c) Blind?

He was awful.

Dreading Thursday now

No need. Dont you think this squad of players will be desperate to get this out of their system and win?

Post match I've just pulled my head out of the unlit gas oven hearing that Palace have beat Liverpool 2-1.

I'm getting tired of having to talk about the referees but it really feels like they want City fans to stop watching the game in disgust so the rag media can continue saying we have no fans. We need to get top 4 at all costs, beat the rags and then launch a full legal investigation into the whole referees association at the end of the season.
