    I'd say Paully still reckons they're not safe! Great defensive display from Sunderland. They actually had the two best chances of the match despite Arsenal having about 90% possession. Hull or Newcastle now. I reckon it's gonna be the Magpies.

    Arsenal's inability to have a plan b is why they won't win the league for a long long long time.

    Do Barcelona have a Plan B?

    Very few successful teams do. What they do have however is a tight plan A that works 90% of the time.

    We battered Sunderland this evening and what it highlights to me is that the team need to be more clinical. Whether that's learnt on the training ground or bought in I dunno, but it needs to happen.

    pantillimon made some cracking saves. Fair play, out of all the drop candidates Sunderland are the ones I wanted to stay up

    If that's what it means to be a Sunderland supporter I'd pass.
    3 years of just staying up, watching the players "over-perform" in the last month, year in year out.
    It can't be good for the heart either.
    Scored, on average, less than a goal a game, and their fans have seen the least amount of goals in the Premier League (tie with Burnley actually) and 8 of those were in one game!
    Considering what Norwich (assumption here) and Bournemouth are bringing up with them, I would be nervous again for next season.

    The differences between Arsenal and Chelsea are

    1: That smidgen of individual quality like Hazard who wins you a peno or does something brilliant in a match like that.

    2: A good set piece game that wins you a match like that.

    3: They don't concede that chance to Fletcher that loses you a match like that.


    Not a bad result and a decent performance from Arsenal but shows you what they need.
