Well done. Bounced in front of the keeper. Nice.

Mr Alan

leninbenjamin, there is no grey area, those tackles are totally fine.

MementoMori

I think the issue with Bendtner is that he isn't clinical enough to be starting striker for a team that are challenging for the title.

Walcott - good goal been livelier in the second half.

Will be interesting to see what happens from here - will Arsenal push on or will Burnley fight back?

RandolphEsq

Burnley are abysmal

~Rebel~

On more then one occasion this season, i've genuinely forgotten that Burnley are in the Premierleague.

everdead.ie

Paterson doesn't have the speed eagles has to track walcott

Bendtner missed again

Minstrel27

Take Bendtner off now and tell him to go home.

L'prof

Fuck sake, this is ridiculous! Could have easily had 5!!!

Headshot

RandolphEsq

Hahaha! somebody try and defend him and not laugh

Sherifu

OMG what a miss. Get the hook!

~Rebel~

Shocking miss from Bendtner, absolutely awful!

ha ha hah aha hahahahahahahahahaha

Mr Alan

ha ha bendtner

wandatowell

jesus, poor nic. having a stinker!!!!!

MementoMori

Maybe Bendtner is just getting all of his horror misses for the rest of the season out of the way???

Horror show stuff today.

He should retire after this match

Anyone got a non-Sopcast link? Completely screwing my connection, can't even browse. From the sounds of it Bendtner keeping going. Well taken goal by Walcott though ya really have to question the defending.

Peyton Manning

He'll probably score eventually, but Jesus Ive never seen a striker miss so many chances.

I have. Adebayor last season.

I think Diaby is a cracking player

Get out of it! 15 goals last season playing out of position on the right of the pitch. How many did your beloved and worshipped Gabi get?

So with regard to my suggestion that he is probably the weakest player in the league relative to the standard of his team-mates, and that he is woefully out of his depth at Arsenal, you respond: he's better than Gabriel Agbonlahor.

Before I respond to this can I just confirm that you can actually read?

Fair play to the arsenal crowd for helping him.

Wenger must have gone to the "Interact with player" screen on Bendtners profile, selected Adebayor as his linked player, and click "Tell Bendtner you see Adebayor as his ideal role model".

What kind of Barometer is that to measure a player on???

You said 3 goals in his last 3 games didn't matter a fuck, I merely indicated that he scored more than Agbonlahor last season who, I'm sure you regard very highly.

Fuzzy_Dunlop

Bendtner scored as many goals as Liverpools beloved Kuyt last year, playing the exact same role.

****ing awful finishing today though

Peyton Manning

Heh, the BBC update's woman is called Caroline Cheese.

It's not just the number of chances he missed that annoys me, it's the quality of them.
In some matches it's obvious the other players don't want to pass to him at times.

Lovely ball by eagles

MementoMori

Eduardo doing a great job as Bendtner's replacement.

I don't think so. As I said, the way I see it if Walcott doesn't jump out of the way it's a foul because he goes through the man. I don't see any logic why Walcott jumping out of the way in time suddenly makes that an acceptable challenge. If Walcott was wrong footed, or blind sided contact is inevitable and the risk of injury considerable considering the momentum Fox was coming in at.

Call it an irrational pet peeve or whatever you want, but I just don't like those challenges.

It's not so much a critique of the player, but a critique of those who have him in the squad.

You said 3 goals in his last 3 games didn't matter a fuck, I merely indicated that he scored more than Agbonlahor last season who, I'm sure you regard very highly.

3 games is not enough to measure a player's quality and even if it did it still doesn't address my point that he is not good enough to play for Arsenal. I also don't regard Gabby as being all that great. Incredibly frustrating player in fact.

Now is hardly the time/place for this anyway.

Arshavin has the Bentner disease

The inability of Arsenal to kill off this really has me ****ting myself. We must have one of the lowest collective strike conversion ratio's of any league team in history.

Fair enough.

I think Bendtner has great potential but, isn't good enough to be our first choice striker at the moment. I do however feel he's a good squad player right now.

If you're comparing him to other players in the squad, there are a few that that don't deserve to be there at all, while I feel that he does.

Anyway, whatever! Bad miss from Arshavin there and absolutely no pace from Eduardo at all!

What was that by walcott
