klose

Coqueilin on his arse, what a goal!!!

Heisenberg1

Cracking goal.

theteal

Just quality. Love the mis-kick too!

GavRedKing

Haaaaaaaaaaazard

Kristopherus

Brilliant, absolutely brilliant. Game , set & match !!!!

BorneTobyWilde

That was a Maradonna type goal, like one he scored against England .

A Dub in Glasgo

Lovely goal

Duck Soup

Superb. Just incredible.

Surreptitious

That was some run.

Osmosis Jones

Coquelin's made a fool of himself there, if you're going to foul him just bring him down.

ha ha hard not to like that mad bastard conte

Mushy

Incredible goal, he's so good!

Essien

That was unreal

applehunter

Loved the way he shrugged off Coquilan.

Brilliant play.

fullstop

Great goal but comical defending. WTF was Koscielny at tuning his back on him in the box?!

Barr

Moses is having some craic down the right side.

Andersonisgod

Goal! Genius! I want to scream Messi but it's not, it's Eden Hazard and he could become the best player in the world, the Belgian has scored one of the goals of the season.

theteal

Ha ha, the step brothers are there!

Unearthly

Great goal. Sadly Chelsea are well ahead of the rest. Deserved champions

deaddonkey15

Martin Tyler would make you sick.

Mushy

Coquelin got roasted for the goal, then Moses skinned him...again!

super_furry

Thought it was a bit of a fluke myself. Don't think he meant to carry the ball from inside his own half, leave Coquelin on his arse and make Koscielny and Mustafi look static.

Unctuous is what comes to mind when I think of Martin Tyler.

Do you have a full length mirror in place when you spout these lines?

I can't remember which game it was but it was some United game in January after which I vowed never to watch a game with him commentating again if I can help it.

~1 month Martin Tyler free and it feels great

Embarrassing arsenal again, the definition of a team with absolutely no bottle.

What does steve bould actually do?

Not consistent enough for me to be the best in the world. He disappeared last year when the going got tough.

elefant

Best player in the league imo. He's been running circles around arsenal all day.

super_furry

Arsenal Fan TV will be fun this evening.

GavRedKing

The annoying thig about Hazard is that hes capable of that but doesnt produce it enough.

It is however a great individual goal, Costas flick on though is vital and into his path.

I don't think so, I'd question his attitude to be honest, especially given his downing tools last year. Brilliant goal though, and he is a hugely talented player.
All.of the talk recently about arsenal's mental strength is kinda bs to be honest. I'm shocked at them travelling to Chelsea with a midfield 2.of coquelin and Oxtail-Chamberpot. A big rich club like them should have a better squad balance than they have.

Chelsea barely hitting 3rd gear and look comfortable.

Tbf those were extreme circumstances known as "Mourinho 3rd season syndrome" literally nobody performed due to that. Hazard is a genius.

Arsenal are missing Xhala, Ramsey, Cazorla and Eleny today so I'd cut them some slack in that regard.

A level below world class for me. Was pretty poor in the Euros too.

I've never heard of that word before, I must add it to my vocabulary.

Messi was average for a good while internationally. Didn't help having an awful manager who had no clue how to use him for his entire international career.

Kristopherus

Kante is an absolute human machine in midfield.

Sugarlumps

Welbeck done more in a minute than Walcott did for the entire game.

Have Arsenal brought on Sanchez/Ozil yet?

blueser

There seems to be no passion or desire from Arsenal today. They undoubtedly have the flair players, but their mentality seems suspect.

GavRedKing

Kante has been immense today, Costa, Hazard will get the plaudits at the end of the year but hes been or is very close to our POTY.

You could say that for the past 5 years. They have lost their passion to play for wenger.

Barr

Wonder what Wenger saying into that :pac:
