klose

Wengers nightmare here, his hand is forced to use both ozil and giroud and chase the game.

He should have no first team players on tonight. We have too many out injured already. Madness by Wenger.

Crowd really shouting for Jose now

If only you could predict scores aswell as this :pac:

*waddles off*

GavRedKing

Arsenal walked in there.

Mr.Micro

Playing Bendtner in the team is a regressive step,: 0-2. Game over for us.

Barr

Soft free kick there

Ba for Eto'o soon as well.

Heard it here first. :pac:

Aaaargh

Ref thinks its basketball

Ozil and Giroud should both have 30 mins of medium effort in them, I don't think Chelsea are even close to being a dirty side so i wouldn't be too worried about injuries.

They're always trying to do that I hear

GavRedKing

Wow, unlucky there.

greendom

Thought that was going to be another Kos own goal

ronjo

Wonder did Giroud do an Adebayor?

I am on because you're ****

Don't need a player near you to pull a hamstring
which is quite common, just ask the ox!

Johner

Impressed with Mikel tonight.

Gringo180

Is it just me or do the top teams have us sussed out, let us have the ball in places we wont hurt them and when we lose it hit us on the counter attack. Dortmund last week and now Chelsea, and pretty sure Fergusons Utd always played us this way and always beat us. Im perhaps thinking into a bit too much but thats wjat i am seeing.

.jacksparrow.

What are the Chelsea fans signing about Wenger?

IvySlayer

If you think Juan Mata is good you should see his brother, Two

Aye been like that for years, Wenger ain't gonna change our style at this stage.

Thats true but we just seem so predictable at times.

Jenkinson ain't going to make it either methinks.

i just thought that too

Francie Barrett

It looks like Chelsea have well and truly got their season going at this stage. With Jose in charge and his ability to grind out results, you'd have to fancy them for the title.

Jenkinson scares me, it looks like he is gonna fall over when running.

Mr.Micro

Agree. Never that impressed with him.

Very shaky and clumsy. Maybe he'll improve.

Very unnatural looking footballer - looks pretty awkward at times. Jury still out for me though

GavRedKing

Kalas for Azpilicueta?

GavRedKing

Actually it'll probably be ivanovic

2/2

You're slipping now though :pac:

GavRedKing

Ivanovic for Mata, Azp to RW.

Mickeroo

Park exists!!

bad2dabone

Park! where did they dig him up from

ah very disappointed with tonights performance. I didn't think we'd win but i still hate to see us lose, especially when we're so "controlled" by the opposition.

Green Hornet

Yeah, Arsenal have been very poor. Almost like as if the players themselves don't take it seriously.

tayto lover

Very poor performance. Some of the passing has been rubbish. If we escape without any injuries i'll accept it. FFS Monrael limping now :mad:

klose

Jenkinson couldn't be doing any worse if he tried

Wolf Club

I can see this becoming a recurring theme for Arsenal over the season against better teams, we'll have the spoils of possession but will get beaten by shortcomings in defence and lack of killer instinct in attack. I don't want to be too pessimistic but I could see it happening this weekend again.

Rabbit in the headlights tonight.

ronjo

What's wrong with crossing the fcuking ball occasionally?

Yeah anyone else on the right there and we might have had a good chance.

Sergio

Fcuk sake!

GavRedKing

Unlucky from Ramires

bad2dabone

don't be looking for a card at 92 mins mourinho.

.jacksparrow.

Jose showing his class there.

quarryman

Ozil just oozes class. Everything just looks so effortless.

Also an example to young players on the benefits of simple passing. Never interested in the Hollywood pass if something simpler and more effective is available. I'm looking at you Stephen Gerrard.

cson

He's a classy individual that Maureen. :rolleyes:

Jenkinson has been shocking tonight. Hope he learns from it.

Barr

Great win for Chelsea given all the changes.
