Result flattered City. We were the better side, especially 2nd half despite it being 10v12.
Ramsey did really well and Jack was great again, despite being kicked literally 11 hundred times.
We lost.
Again.
Yay.
City deservedly won the game, even though they don't look a great side this season. No complaints about the referee, the red card and penalty was clear (even Arseblog says so), the 2nd goal for Dzeko wasn't offside and if anything, the only major decision that was dodgy was the Kompany red card. I hope Wenger doesn't blame the referee after the match, the fault mainly lies with Koscielny's clueless defending and both goals were completely avoidable if we were switched on.
Stop mentioning Arseblog!
Anyway, though:
Fuck.
jack was supberb today but we need a "lauren" to kick the shit out of those ****s who think he is fair game. kompany was clearly a red as a two footed challenge. jack was superb.Quote:

Giroud had more touches of the ball today despite only playing for half an hour.
It's quite clear Theo should be back on the wing.
Jack was dishing it out as much as he was taking it, he can have no complaints.Quote:

Good performances in bad circumstances from a few of them out there. Let's hope Diaby can survive another game or two.
End of the day your boys grabbed the points which is what counts.Quote:

It's a good thing Aguero is injured or he would have converted several of the chances Dzeko missed and made it much worse.
11 v 11 it was 0-0.
10 v 11 it was 0-2.
10 v 10 it was 0-0.
Arsenal :bow:.
Dug in but quality wise we were poor. Tactically Wenger was poor. Should have pushed Theo wide right, funnily enough his best chance came when he drifted in from the right.
Kos shouldn't have started considering that they were starting dzeko, mertz was needed.
Sagna.....Hes dreadful, doesn't give a shit in defence and cannot beat the first man with a cross, please get Jenkinson back in the starting line up asap.
Wenger will obviously use the sending off as reason as to why we lost but i think we take too long to get into games and we pay the price time and time again.
three players get credit today. chesney jack and ramsey. all were briliant today. the rest can jsut fuck off.
I think a lot of people's thoughts about Sagna are probably being realised. He has lost a yard which is not unusual for full-backs around his age. Evra and Cole have had similar runs. Probably part of the reason for the reluctance to give him a longer deal. Jenkinson would not be a bad option.
Didnt watch the game but sounds like Jokers found his pussu again!
You can be such a boring **** when you keep going on about me being a City supporter :yawn:Quote:

The sort of dire performance we've come to expect from this team.
Nothing new here.
I just assumed from your gloating you we're a city fan?Quote:

It's time to be pragmatic and keep the eye on the fourth place prize, rather than chasing these sorts of games.
The gloating is a bit odd, tbh.Quote:

One less bot in the match thread did make a difference to be fair.
Yep Mike Dean is fucking bent! Taking it in every hole from each side of Manchester. As if Dzeko was going to get to that before Szcz, goal scoring chance? Bollocks!
It's impossible to compete against a side like that a man down for so long, but a great response from us in the second half, actually thought we'd get one back, but that thing from Night Breed cleared off the line.
Confident we have enough to see off Everton pretty quickly, but it could come down to the last match again to see off the Spunts if their annual collapse doesn't show signs of appearance soon.
At least we avoided an embarrassing loss. I was real nervy after their 2nd goal and it seemed as if they were going to steamroll us.
Not that Mert is much of a defender, but Wenger had no place starting an obviously worse Kos ahead of him, especially for a fixture of this magnitude.
Arsenal CL footie faces a real threat now for the 1st time in many years.
What gloating? All I said was City deserved to win the match and that we can't complain about the referee. Not a hint of "I told you so" or petty point scoring.Quote:

I think not :lol:
If he thought it wasn't he would.
Can we just comment on the match?
This is not a 'poster reaction' thread.
Agreed, everyone is entitled to their opinion.Quote:

We could be 8th or 9th by Feb.
This side just don't work hard enough without the ball, until we sort this out we will struggle.
