Any 'chefs' in the house? We need that special soup once again. :lol:

Not really, there are just some people who don't think there is some global anti-Arsenal conspiracy and that referees are out to get us. Rather than focusing on things we cannot control it's better to focus on what's wrong internally at the club. Why can't we close games out? Why is Wenger not playing Oxlade? Why is our squad so weak that the absence of one player (Arteta) seems to make the whole midfield crumble? Why is someone like Ramsey continuing to play even though he's been shit for months now? These are questions that need to be asked, rather than changing the subject and focusing on referees.

Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger: "We had chances to win the match but we were not sharp enough. Once we went 3-2 up, we had chances and even at 3-3 we had four or five chances to win the game. It is a point. We were 2-1 down at half-time, it was a great response in the second half and we had enough chances to win the game and didn't take them.

:lol:

Get your head out of the sand and stop thinking that those who question Wenger's tactical decision-making are all closet City fans. We're just looking at reality, while you seem to have your head in the sand whining about referees, as if there's some global Freemason conspiracy against us.

Yep that must be it. Just incompetence. Nothing to see, move along. No questions need to be asked about this ongoing incompetence it just needs to be accepted as one of those things. It's not even conceivable that there could be corruption in the sport, not even when you see a referring performance like that. Corruption is impossible but hiring incompetents to control professional sports events is entirely feasible. And anyone who thinks otherwise has their head in the sand. Good reasoning. Good logic. Same could be applied to "incompetent" bankers, "incompetent" politicians, etc. Their incompetence keeps them in their jobs and relegates anyone who questions this state of affairs as a "conspiracy theorist". Listening to you is like reading the Daily Mail.

Sagna has a broken leg.

Excuse me, but that post wasn't about any global anti-Arsenal conspiracies - it was about your season long anti-Arsenal postings and the postings from people like you. Stay on topic please.

To blame the ref today, when his complete ineptness clearly favoured neither team overall, is a complete cop-out.

It was the defending today that really cost us, all their goals should have and could have been defended better.

Yep, Song awful for the whole match. Nobody is blaming the ref for the performance. But he clearly decided the final result and that's not acceptable.

Poor guy. It did look quite bad.
