Arsenal(FA Cup Semi Final) Post Match Thread

It's puzzling to see so much negativity about the season. We'll still finish 3-4 in the league. Many here are struggling with simple maths.

Why never a booking for Sanchez, it's the 6th foul by Arsenal at that point.

why is that a reason to book someone, it was wasn't a bookable offence in my opinion, not all fouls are bookable

City 20 shots 3 on target 1 goal.

Arsenal 9 shots 3 on target 2 goals.

For me that sums up our season. Practice shooting and for a start try to give the goalie something to do.

It sums up our season alright, however effective finishing is pretty much related to psychology: Calmness, serenity, selfbelief, determination etc in front of goal. Basically you have a pressured team out there, physically as well as mentally. Our confidence levels (which influence the quality of our overall game anyway, decision making, passing accuracy, you name it) have not been consistently where they should, and we definitely have not developped in terms of personality (despite the presence of experienced players on the pitch). You have to ask yourself why...

I wish we had a team where every player was in the mould of Vinnie, Zabba and Yaya.

There are too many soft arses in our side.

You do realize it was Vinny's stupid free kick that led to their second goal don't you? it was a totally unnecessary foul to give away.

Am i the only one who thinks Kevin was shit, and wasted that free role opportunity he got given to him.

nope....i agree...shit might be harsh but i think he is well short of what he is capable of and baring the odd bit of brilliance has been for a while....

Wave bye bye to champions league football for next season unless this team steps up to the plate on thurs which goin off past results is unlikely

welbeck threw himself over...it wasn't even a free kick

If the goal tnennpen had been given we'd have been 2-0 up ffs.

Well it was 0-0 when the goal was disallowed so I'm not sure how much you had to drink!

Not just mine.

Even Ian Wright and Camelgob thought it was nailed on and took the piss out of Webb but if you share the view of Webb in that it wasnt a penalty then thats your perogative as it is mine to completely ignore 99% of the tripe that comes out of you on here.

I always wait for the first insult and you just can't help yourself. So I feel quite justified in suggesting that you offer absolutely nothing to Bluemoon apart from excusing Pep at every opportunity just like you did Pellegrini before him.

Oh no you mean we might not qualify for that competition we're so use to performing well in?
