    Podolski should stand on the opposition's penalty spot the whole match. Wasn't happy to see him switch out to the left for a while earlier, looks like they're all swapping about a lot at this stage.

    Reading are really, really woeful. They remind me of us in our 19 and 15 point seasons.

    My fault lads, I put money on the Walcott special on PP. That's why he missed.

    7 attempts with 4 on target in 27 mins is promising.

    Still look dodgy at the back though.

    This Reading team have to be in the top 5 worst sides to ever play on the premierhip era. They're just bereft of quality in all areas.

    Ha, I was ready to kill Cazorla there when he took it off Chambo who was running in looking like he was about to smash it in.

    The repetition is why it's called a chant.

    Lol funny ironic cheers from the Reading fans. At least they're enjoying their short lived premier league stay.

    As good as we've been going forward. And as bad as Reading have been, we've coughed up three good chances in the first half. Could well be 3-2 or 3-3

    So frustrating to see pretty much the same Arsenal team from the Bradford game put in a performance like that. Any sort of consistency and we'd be challenging.

    I am aware that Gervinho is not on the pitch and this changes things immeasurably.

    perhaps - it would have been a bit of a travesty if that had been the score though
