Arsenal Vs City Post Match Thread

[fatbloke]

Poor result. Those who think it's good probably thought everything was wonderful in Mancini's final year. Fell short due to the same reason why Mancini's squad fell short, some players just not dedicated enough. Clichy, Nasri and Dzeko all have potential to be great but just lack effort.

You sir are a fucking prick.

I suspect you're one of those people who rate Milner because of his "effort"... rather than his ability?

You've just highlighted 3 players who have been very important first team players for a team who has won the Premier League title twice in three years as lacking effort, don't try and change the topic now dickhead. I stand by my original statement.

Watched the goals again and think Joe has to have a hard look at himself. Committed himself for the first goal and poor positioning for the second goal. Time to be thinking about Willy for me.

Hart was fine. Reacted well and left exposed for the goals. We are still not fully firing yet with too many misplaced passes and some grade A dawdling on the ball. That needs to be looked at more.

Can't fault the players today - point was the least we deserved. Thought we played really well and tried to keep a fast tempo throughout, but In all fairness the Arse made a game of it. I'd much rather opponents attempt to play football and not park the bus, but that's the only compliment they're getting.

Ref seemed to be wearing his fuck-up boots today .

really promising performance, considering the players missing, just hope we continue on in Munich and get a win against Chelsea.

Good for Pelle for telling the truth .

 

[PragueBlue]

Love it Pellers. Give it to them!

What did he say?

Basically that there was a clear foul in the play leading up to both their goals, that we should also have had a clear penalty and that it will be very difficult for us to retain our title if we have to face such crap ref performances.

Ultimately he just told the truth but that won't go down too well with the authorities.

Pellegrini just couldn't stay quiet anymore, absolutely raging at the bent/incompetent referees with a bone to pick with City. Went as far back as the Anfield match in his rant.

Fair enough.

Only had to breath on wilshere and it was a free Kick MOTM Clattenburg well done you dodgy twat, the high five with wilshere at the end said it all. I feel We were robbed today IMO of a well deserved 3 hard earned points.
Joe's impression of a star fish for their first really pissed me off.
I'll Just have to be happy with a point I guess, all my moaning wont change the draw to a win will it:-(

 

[Blue Mooner]

Finally! Great to hear our manager calling out the referee and reminding everyone that Clattenburg continually gives us nothing. Sanchez diving around whenever he was touched, clear foul on Kompany for their second, blatant handball by wilshere. The referees don't want to give us anything.

Under these circumstances great performance by the boys and with a bit of luck we should have won the game.

Pellers just summed it up perfectly for me. The referees are incompetent! Clear foul on aguero for their goal and definite penalty against wilshire. If this is the way we are going to reffed all season then it's going to take a monumental effort to retain the league!
