He was involved in a nice little one-two with Giroud earlier also. He's got into more dangerous positions than most of our attackers.

He's too light and fearful for me.
After so many years at the club he should be a leader now, not a bit player.

Bellerin having a mare at fault for both goals

A poor first half followed by a better second half has summed up a few of our games this season.

Here's hoping.

Can't see it today.
We are carrying too many today especially with Coq gone.

Ehhhhh? My feed just switched to the Chelsea match at halftime.

urgh...ozil off the post


arteta calf problem. haven't heard that one before.

tayto lover

Unlucky Ozil.

Alfred Borden

Arteta was finished last year. Madness to go into the season with him.

Yep, his calf is a chronic problem at this stage. Put him out to pasture.

How we are playing today is nothing to do with pressure of being at the top of the league.

Two defenders stood off Rondon and let him shoot FFS.

So it's just another "one of those days" which coincidentally is happening when we have a good chance to move clear at top.

Arsenal has those days no matter where in the league they are? Today isn't a poor team performance, it's individual errors, notably by Arteta.

Granted, collectively their not all at fault, but there is definitely another gear to be stepped up out there.

tayto lover

We'll be lucky to get a point here the way we're playing.

Quazzie

How did Campbell miss that. :mad:

Gibbs would have put that away

lertsnim

Jesus Christ almighty. What a horrible miss

tayto lover

FFS Campbell.

Arne_Saknussem

Even though he's not been at the top of his game this season Ramsey is badly missed when he's out.

tayto lover

Bad miss from Alexis now.

Bobby Baccala

Not our day at all

Gringo180

****ing draw would be nice now. Cant afford to lose this one going into the festive period.

Soups123

This really has a here we go again feeling to it. Injuries building & losing form when we need it most

Quazzie

Soft enough peno

lertsnim

Good to see referees giving penalties for things like that

tayto lover

peno

For sure now

lertsnim

For **** Sake

Harry Palmr

Mark Clatterburg playing for Arsenal, oh wait....change of mind

Quazzie

Bad, bad miss

Wow. Santi. That sums it up.

Roddy23

Cazorla was never gonna score that. Disaster of a day this is turning out to be.

tayto lover

Mother of God.

Gringo180

Typical Arsenal.

Soups123

It so frustrating, we've found ourselves in a rut, the 5-1 hammering has a lot to do with it as has the injuries.

Surely Arsene is regretting not improving the squad with outfield options and sticking with Arteta and Rosicky knowing they weren't going to stay fit

Gringo180

Busy thread ahead............

emergingstar

That's a ****ing horrible loss

Roddy23

My God I hate Pulis.

Arteta is done as a reliable replacement. Shot us right in the foot today. Sooner we get Coquelin back the better. Need him back in the side before City match.

tayto lover

Another sorry mess but we're used to them now.

Soups123

We badly need Ramsey back.

Our bench is **** too with the players out I think the next 4/5 games are going to be tough viewing

Alfred Borden

Injuries and games like this are why I want us to take the cups (And the Europa League if we end up in it) seriously as it presents us with our best chance of silverware.

Quazzie

Myhill booked for timewasting in the 91st minute and he still only played the exact 4 minutes. That's a bit shít isn't it?

Anyways, we decent today, but we lacked the quality to finish when it mattered and Arteta singlehandedly made sure we lost this one.


One man lost it for us, but eleven men failed to win it for us also.

Wengers downfall is his loyalty to players that offer very little to the club.

That and lack of investment when it's clearly needed.

Leicester top of the league.

It has its ups and downs. Arteta's not good enough, but a more ruthless manager would have binned Coquelin years ago.

**** game anyway. Pulis teams away are never good for us, but you'd think after going ahead they'd have enough in them to at least get a point...

emergingstar

He is gonna have to buy a DM in Jan now
And he will have to pay over the odds to get him

As an aside per and Campbell are stone useless
