Match Reaction vs Swansea

[Ollie the Optimist]

What a win, two points clear of spurs, 8 points ahead of united (judas )

Thought the team was superb, defended well. Took our chances amd took the points home. Top of the league. Won our last 9 games amd since spurs, we have played 21 games and won 18. This team really can be special.


Also our away fans are the best, they don't stop singing at all. Was great to be a part of that. Great day out

Very good result yesterday, thought Wilshere had one of the best games, he's had as an Arsenal player particularly in the 2nd half.

Gnarby had a good game, after he made that run in the last minute of the 1st half, you just saw his confidence grow.

On to Napoli, keep it up boys.

[Master Splinter]

Wilshere's bulked up way too much.

It was his ability to glide past the defender that made him so good. Now he's slower and more mechanic. His brain clearly wants him to do something but his body is reacting a split second slower. It never used to be like that.

There could be something in this tbf.

Or it could just be he's taking time to re-adjust to football and the changes in our team since he's come back. I'm sure it will just click and Sir Jack from 2010/11 will be back. It would be a shame if he's dead.

If he keeps that up Walcock will be a bench warmer

Ozil was poor because he didnt have Walcott running in behind.

Thats my theory, I await it being disproven.

We are not gonna see the best Ozil till Carzorla and Theo are playing alongside him.

It'll take a bit of time to see the best of Ozil, it's a new league, new country (weather is sh*t ), so he needs some time to settle, he needs to get to know his teammates better as well to gain a good understanding.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Sell him, he's shit!

I agree tactically but how many times have you seen Theo run in behind this season. Seems a bit lazy to me this year, not having that desire to burst past defenders. Does it at times but not consistent enough. If Gnabbers is as quick & has more hunger then Theo needs to buck his ideas up. His been a victim of Wumger's poor transfer policy, not giving him enough competition, so he's lazy. Goes backwards & sideways when he should be burning past the full backs.
