Arsenal Post Match Thread.

Pssst missing the David Luiz at home red card shout for a foul on Sergio with acres of space to run into behind. Oh I'd put the Everton away game Sterling penalty shout in there too as we were well ontop in that first half.. it's bit harder to argue a win given how we collapsed in the second half but I don't think that would have happened going in at 1-0.

What's that got to do with anything.

A draw was the correct result, we didn't do enough and Arsenal were well in the game after ten minutes.

Apart from Ospina's save from Fernandinho, we promised lots but delivered very little in the second half.

For the record, there wasn't an Arsenal fan turning up today who thought they stood much of a chance, such is how crap their confidence is.

So arsenal fans decide what their confidence level Is????????????????????????????????????????? I never let my dad decide what my confidence level was when I played football,


and how many save did our keeper have to make and how many times did they hit the post?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

We were equally crap in defence, equally flat after the international break so a draw is fair in that sense. I still feel our goals were the cleaner/purer their first was scrappy and their second was from a corner which should have been delt with(should have had someone on the post too). Balance of play aside if the right calls are made we win, a lucky win is still a win.

Both their goals were shit defending much like many of the other goals conceded this season. We were the better team who created the best chances but we have to start winning these games. Our record against the teams at the top is terrible. It needs to get better and we also need to stop throwing points away against average sides like Stoke.

Same old errors and inability to put games to bed, and or defend a winning position.
6 or 7 of this team won't get a sniff next season, they don't have the ability, legs or football brain to apply Peps magic. It fuckin frustrates the shice out of me to watch a simple game get fucked up by idiots who can't make a simple pass and move, make space for themselves, and cross a ball with some accuracy and intent.
Second half was abysmal, Arsenal were there for the taking, and we don't take the game to them.
Chelsea won't lose two on the trot ffs, at least I doubt they will, unless the entertaining, exciting, energetic and ruthless City turn up.
Got to finish in the top 4 this season, have a clear out and rebuild where necessary over the summer, and get to it next August.
It's been a steep learning curve for Pep in the Premiership, and the team to be honest, but he plays a simple game, keep the ball, pass and move, attack, score more than the opposition, and win the ball back sharpish like. Problem is, the players can't do it consistently throughout a game, let alone from match to match.

Is there a reason you have to put 50 question marks in every post? If not can you stop doing it.

Why does everyone think our problems will be over when we sign new full backs? Our track record of signing defenders leaves some room for improvement.

With our defence there are no assumptions that can be made.

Yes......but results win trophies.

We can do both.

We played well, you intimated we didn't either support the team or go away, for good.

I just think we are very average. We need probably 6 or 7 players and that's pathetic when you think of the investment in recent years. Our defending is amateurish scoring two away from home should see you win games. Navas can't get a game in his preferred position to play him at right back before Zab? Yaya was awful today but it's sad that we are still reliant on him to change games.

Our track record of signing defenders with Pep as manager ain't bad though... hopefully will continue
