Arsenal Post Match Thread.

Fucking get in. Shite first half but what a second half.
This.

Feared the worst when Pep took Zaba off at half time, only player who tried to go forward.

KDB was sleeping in the build up for thier goal.

First half umbrella football by us was awful I was expecting us to be boo'd off but thankfully not.

Second half, fantastic, pass of the season from kdb, we were well worth the win.
 
neither goal was anything like offside ,the first one isn't even debatable its level,second goal the shot is already in the six yard box and silva hasn't arrived there yet,cech was already totally beaten his comments were disappointing it thought he was an honest pro but hes lied when he says he couldn't see it
If it was the same interview that I saw, I thought Cech was very honest and didn't appear to be claiming interference at all. I thought he said he didn't see the ball, because his two defenders were in the way. Even when prompted by the interviewer, he didn't say that Silva's position affected the play.
 
a couple of points regarding today,

absolutely delighted with the result, and the performance. the answer to our defensive frailties appears to be not letting them have the ball. Sane has to be encouraged, he looks like a really confidence player.

in addition though in the true traditions of City gallows humour i think people should allow others to express an opinion without jumping up and down upon them. If someone follows City and occasionally becomes disillusioned this is exactly the sort of place they should be able to vent and or express themselves. I have been following City for a long while through good times and bad but if i suggest they may not beat Hull next week some people think that gives them the right to call me and others all sorts of names.

We might not beat Hull -- that's an opinion. Kolarov positioning himself poorly or Sterling missing an easy chance -- criticism of an event -- no problem. But "Sane is shite; total waste of money" or "Sterling doesn't belong near this team" are generalized slagging off that ignores the good work they've done in the past and makes one look like a dillhole when they play great. So that'd be the difference to me.
 
Seriously though, there must have been 60 posters pre game giving us no hope and then slating Pep for the team sheet.

There's zero come back for them. They act like ****s and bar three or four holding their hands up on this thread, they melt away not to be heard of until the next sticky patch.
I know you like a row swp lol, but, like many times - not all the time so don't get big headed - your spot on there. There are some utter soft arses on here with little no knowledge or loyalty
 
What do you expect? I heard that, too. Guess who it was - Paddy Barclay('s banker).
He actually backed us up with the second goal being offside - said that was nonsense.
 
He was a little slow chasing back, but Clichy should have challenged Bellarin (?) as he had no one else to cover. He just stood off and let him walk straight past.
He was more than a little slow. He was shockingly slow. However, he makes up for that in other areas.

You could be right they just walked through us but the original ball from the keeper to the fullback was slack play from Kev.

Made his ball for our goal that bit better ;)

It's not that I like a row per se, it's just I have very little time for people being bell ends.

I consider myself fairly empathetic but I cannot understand the mentality of spending a week saying we will get annihilatedand then an hour slagging Pep for team selection whilst claiming to be a City fan. I don't see what they get out of it. And with the pre match thread being locked and ignored by many they get away with it week after week.

agreed, we are allowed to be negative in general but victimising individuals really isn't constructive
 
Just back from game and thought we were fantastic.
We were the better team in the 1st half and after we scored we totally bossed the game.
Fernando,Kolarov,Yaya and Sterling were excellent Kdb and Silva were close behind and it was good to see Sane score.
What a pass from Kdb and a great finish from Sterling.
We played with passion and commitment and chased everything today.
Thought Bravos' passing both long and short were very good.
Looking forward to motd tonight.
