Arsenal post match thread

Totally frustrating match, for 30mins we played good then they get a wonder strike, and then Mangala decides to give them a Christmas bonus, just listen to Pelligrini on the match day centre saying you have to win the big matches and maybe we was rushing Aguero back instead of giving him a couple of games to get back to match fitness........well duth!!!!!!!!, sorry but we could have got the points tonight and again we screwed it big time............

It's ok for everybody to keep saying it's a wonder strike, but he shouldn't get that room in there.
We don't. It's a ball played into the danger area no closing down and he has all the time to line it up.
We seem to spend a lot of time marking space and that doesn't hurt anyone.
 
I honestly thought we were the better team in the first half and miles the better team in the last 15 minutes, just they took their first two chances then sat back and hit us on the break and got lucky that the referee was on the take. If Kev sticks that first one away when we were completely nullifying them, or Mangala doesn't give it away before half time, or Hart saves the pretty routine shot then it's a completely different game. If we get the stonewall penalty on Sterling as well, which I still have no idea how the bent ref can justify not giving.

Our organisation was fine until half time, but the classic mistake of leaving Yaya in a two left us all over the place and pretty easy to play against, but even then we should have got a point if the referee does his job.

Pretty much sums it up for me, although delph has to take some blame for the silly pass to mangala which puts him under pressure. we at least deserved a point imo.

Goodnight blues.
 
I'm not but money has absolutely fucjK all to do with supporting your team. The money card is what the red press play every fecking time. If in reality players play bad then they deserve criticism but to use the gazillions card is simply is disrespectful to the club and City. In general tonight the team played well but conceded a spectacular goal and a soft goal, ten years ago we wouldn't even be having this conversation. Let the good times continue and know that we've been blessed and are in the upper etchanlons of world football, not thee lower tiers of English football and certainly not turn into arrogant, rag, assholes because we think we're better than anyone else.
Good post pal...I'll go to bed on a bit of positivity now. I honestly thought we played well.
 
Most of you lot disgust me.

No better than that shocking Arse fans performance.

You can go fuck yourselves. I'm going to Sunderland and Leicester to cheer my champions on.

You can do what you want.

Wankers.

And whilst you're there you can tell the spineless cunts to put a shift in.
 
I don't think we played that badly. Generally we were OK, shite in parts, very good in others. It all boils down to our inability to defend solidly for any length of time.
it is worrying how it all turns to shite without Vincent. Get him back for the remainder ( I know, I know) and we win the league.
 
Love Yaya but the space in front of the back 4 is a big reason for our struggles.....and add that to the fact that Mangala is STILL making errors......we just making life too easy for these teams....We have no leaders and no fight, no hunger......this is really poor. Yaya just cant play a full 90 minutes anymore and Arsenal attacking players were just going past him as if he wasnt there for most of this game....and then when Mangala has no protection in front of him and is put under pressure, thats when the mistakes happen........Everyone knows Arsenal are quick in midfield and becuase of this, I feel Pelle got it wrong again......Playing Delph out wide on the left was not the right move for this game...We need quicker players with lots of energy in the middle and no matter how much we love Yaya, he just cant offer that anymore......another poor display which is becoming the norm this season.....
 
A heat map may well be further up the field, but all that will show is how much he struggled to get back in to his actual position. All of the space for Arsenal was on that right side of the midfield exactly where Yaya was supposed to be - you've got this one wrong blue. Like I said, I don't blame Yaya, his limitations are well known by all.

Again disagree. A heat map will show his ave. position on the field in the first half. The manager's a busted flush but nothing wrong today.
 
As i have expected it, we once again have been utterly poor against a decent team.
Hart kept us in it by disallowing two sitters which would have killed the game and Yaya's late brilliance must not hide the fact that we are
so bland and uninspired against good oppositions.
Trashing relegation fodder teams while loosing to any top 4 contender might secure us the 40 points but hardly give us any decent chance at the title.
