Ol' Donie

What are yis on about?

We've had some decent moves, looking sharp enough.

Need to start shooting, though.

Inconsistency.

Not amazing at all.

Teams are consistently poor after away midweek CL games.

Ah the passing has been terrible.

Dominating but not really threatening up front, best chance was the header that Vokes put wide.
As an aside whenever the camera flashes to players on the bench they all seem to be talking with their hand over their mouth, Are they afraid of the cameras picking up on what they are talking about? Its something I have noticed alot in the last while

Burnley very hard to break down in fairness to them.

We were at home!

0-0 HT
Nothing to get excited about, Burnley proving very hard to break down, would like to see the odd shot from distance and work the keeper abit. Mustafi looks an excellent purchase

Well one of them was Andre Gray who is currently suspended for something he tweeted years ago! So yeah, player a have to be very cautious these days

Fairly flat first half, Burnley well organised. Attacks either ending with an eye of the needle attempted through ball or lacking a presence in the box with it's played in from wide.

Ozil not really at the races so far, hopefully Burnley tire from the effort they're putting in.

Roddy23

Need Ozil to increase his intensity in the 2nd half. One great flick apart to setup Montreal to run down the wing, he has been rubbish.

Skylinehead

This is the sort of match where Sanchez up front doesn't really work. He needs space, and isn't getting it. If only Giroud hadn't crocked himself...

Topbike77

Should bring on Ox for Iwobi, pity Perez and Giroud out..

JustTheOne

Get the finger out lads.

Skylinehead

This is fair awful

Royale with Cheese

Badly need a centre forward on the pitch. Sanchez dropping very deep and nobody is willing to put crosses in when they get wide as there is little point.

FixitFelix

Özils final ball has been woeful today

mansize

Today would have been an ideal Giroud day

fook, thought that was in from Sanchez, inches away...

mansize

Oooh close

Boring, Bland Arsenal.

Alfred Borden

Dropping points here would be awful.

Best part of today will be the Henry/Wenger interview at 6.45pm.

wonga77

We have nathing on the bench either to introduce

DanC90

Nothing seems to be going right for us in this game, the movement up front has been way too slow.

I would move to a 4-4-2 and sit back a bit to invite them on and play Sanchez + Walcott as the strikers to hopefully catch them on the counter with a quick ball over the top.

brianregan09

Ozil and Sanchez have been awful today bellerin not great either

Sanchez is always the one with hunger and actually trying hard.
Others don't bother half the time and that's unforgivable

FixitFelix

Get up Mustafi for **** sake

Skylinehead

Sanchez is trying too hard if anything

Not a lot coming off for him

Seen it earlier it's good.

Wenger sucks you in with his charm but then bring you back down to earth with this performance.

Jaysus a late winner would be great

Burnley defending like pros

Wow bundled in, but who cares woooohooo

Ardennes1944

Jesus christ!! YES!!!

Pudders

Holy moses

Touch of pure luck there

Skylinehead

What a beautiful, pure goal :pac:

Always loved Oxlade-Chamberlain.

FixitFelix

Where was the man on the back post for Burnley going??

But I'll take it

gebbel

Take it and run!!! Come on!!

Arne_Saknussem

That's the poxiest goal i think i've ever seen.

wonga77

smash and grab! But we'll take it

DanC90

Jesus we robbed that one! I'll take it all day long though 😀

mansize

That probably should have been a free out

Skylinehead

A Frenchman handling the ball for a goal in the last minute? Hmm sounds somewhat familiar.

It's like Magic Johnson in that Simpsons episode

That puts us 3rd on 16pts

Osmosis Jones

Just in here for a moment to mention how awful that effort from Ox was, had Kosc's arm not been in the way it would've been over the bar and one of the worst misses all season. He's a lucky man

Most enjoyable match of the season so far
