Big Man MotM. :haha:
"They've done their entertainment". :haha:
An incredibly predictable game and result.
Oh well, given United lost we're a point better off at least.
On we go.
Fuck it! I think we should've beaten them today.
It was a Carbon copy of the game before Christmas last season.
Yeah, because today negative football is great. Tomorrow, when somebody else does it, it won't be so good. Did you know, poor old unlucky Utd had more possession today even though they were hammered? Possession was important earlier in the day. Now, not so much. Being able to change 180 degrees in one Sunday is what makes the Sky pundits so great.
Small team stopped football team playing with assistance from referee and Satan.
Can't blame the plucky underdogs with no resources or advantages to run the risk of sport breaking out so as not to expose them.
Coquelin, Ramsey, Ozil were good.
Oliver just terrible.
Detestable conglomeration of vermin as scummy as ever.
"Two old boys" - Souness gives away the game without realising.
Let's watch for the rest of the season to see if those types of GK challenges result in a pen and red card. They won't. That's because it wasn't a pen.
The real story here is the chavs playing Oscar when he had concussion. He didn't, btw. It's made up bullshit. But if they want to go with that then that's where the real penalty should occur.
It was a smidgen different from the game in December 2013 in that in that we were very negative in that game. Sczezny didn't once boot the ball out from a goal kick and he'd only throw the ball out to the nearest defender. This was clearly under the direction from our manager.
Today, we had a little more enterprise and we were willing to take more risks but, the proof is in the pudding, we had one, solitary, tame shot on target.
Not only do we now have to get the monkey of Wenger not having beaten Mourinho off our backs now but also the goalless games we've had against them for the best part of 2 and a half years. Great :rolleyes:
It's a shame we've dropped points against the worst Chelsea side in ten years. I tend to think that the best chance we ever have of beating them is at their ground with a resolute defensive display from ourselves. Gives us that marginal advantage in picking them off. Easier said than done.
Get real Per - title is gone, you have to overcome the likes of the chavs and Oliver of you want to win titles. You didn't. Doesn't matter how corrupt it all is, when you have the better players and the better teams and even if you have an absolute idiot in charge it is still there to win. You didn't. Nowhere, not even with a million miles, good enough.
The real monkey we have to get off our back is Wenger.
When we have Bif on the pitch we play centrally against the best defence in the league (who also have the ref) so he is isolated. When he has the chance to make a sub he takes Bif off and plays Welbeck centrally. THEN we start going wide and crossing the ball.
Only a moron would figure a game plan like that. Exactly opposite to what was required. Exactly opposite.
How are they going to cover up the fact their champions are a running joke?
John Terry the vile scumbag. That's all they have. That's the story.
Problem is when Mourinho decides he doesn't want to get beat he doesn't.
If you look at City, United and Liverpools record against him it's not greatly better than ours.
End of the day after our watery diarroeah display against Reading I'd have snapped your hand off for a point.
I just wanted to edit this to be clear this is not a defending Wenger post, nothing to defend its abundantly clear he sets his side out to facilitate playing who he considers are his best players rather than which side is the best one to put out to thwart his oponents. Also his substitutions are diabolical both tactically and in terms of timing, the crusty old frog is so stubborn you can bet he was given ECT in order to develop a game plan against City and United.
Sky is trying to reignite the "campaign"
All our players got booked before kickoff. None of their were booked until they started using firearms.
The campaign is obviously in full swing.
Poor old Sky. Cunts. Wouldn't it be terrible if they all died?
Best Arsenal highlight was seeing George Graham in the crowd.
It's a shame to see punditry like that ousted by the dour sourpuss that is Souness.
That display against Reading was fine because we won. The performance is irrelevant. Limply slinking out of the title challenge having been slaughtered on points is not worth considering. If we win the FA Cup we can wave it at the chavs and they'll be real jealous. Really they will. The FA Cup is everything, but some realists refuse to accept the fact.
You keep going on about performances and tactics and continuity and shit like that, but it;s the result that counts when you scrape a win against Reading. It shows progress.
Are they trying to convince themselves it doesn't come down to having eight behind the ball?
predictable match, predictable result. wenger hasnt sussed out maureen yet, he still plays the same tippy tappy slow as my nan shit and expects different results.
3rd behind city on GD but we have a game in hand so not bad.
2nd and the Cup would be decent.
On the plus side, as long as we win the next 2 against Hull and Swansea, then we won't need to win at Old Trafford to keep the 2nd place trophy in our hands.
NoQuote:
2nd and the Cup would be decent.
Wenger admits we "produced the performance that was expected."
He needs to be sacked. Didn't think I would ever say that but he won't go otherwise.
Boring game but 2nd half was different from the first. For once, Chelsea held the ball a bit better and had a run of possession. That was our chance to try and hit them on the counter.
No idea why Giroud came off for Walcott. Poor decision and I'm really not a fan of Welbeck. That one chance he had in the box where he just misses the ball sums him up.
Expected us to lose or draw so no surprises. Glad we didn't go full pelt and lose against Chelsea because they're best moments came when they countered.
Typical Wenger performance - slow, predictable, boring. Fucking make Courtois make a save. Pass faster, take a long shot, try something different, do anything. You can't finish the game with one shot on target.
I know Chelsea parked the bus but it never felt like we were going to score. Wenger has no answer tactically.
Games like this should make the few who havent yet sussed it that we willnever win big things under Wenger. He simply cant find a way to win these games. It wouldnt have mattered in the overall realm of things because next season Chelsea wont be any different. We wont be any different. We will be lamenting the same shit again next year no doubt. Well played the lads though, handicapped by the manager. Unfortunately they will be handicapped again next August.
Wenger says we lacked a little bit expression in the final third.
What the fuck does that even mean?
Does it mean we lacked tactics against the best defence in the league? Whose fault is that then?
Henry having a pop at Özil, not sure why.
Henry isn't holding back on what we need to do as a club.
Because his record against the top teams isn't fantastic and he said he could say the same about a lot of the players. Giroud is one example as Jamie is saying.
Ozil was ok today. Tidy and didn't really put a foot wrong. Chelsea are just difficult to play against. But we really do need someone to really have the game of their lives if we're going to beat Chelsea.
Why would he to be fair, on one hand he isn't bound to us by anything other than emotion and second of all he's a pundit for Sky therefore it's his job to eviscerate us.
Those of us with long memories can remember even in the unbeaten season, the constantly recycled phrase of "Arsenal don't like it up them" and Andy Gray trashing us for our lack of "headed goals" because he seemed to believe they were the only goals that had any merit because those were the kind he used to score. And then they re-write history by comparing us negatively to the Arsenal of back then which had strength and character (something they were quick to dismiss at the time).
To sum it up Fuck Sky Sports.
They're laying into Bif on Sky.
Nobody could have prospered being isolated like that. If you play in front of the best defence in the league then what does it matter who is playing up front?
They FIRST time we played in a way we could breach that defence was after we had taken Giroud off.
The pundits are too afraid to call Wenger out.
I need a look at it again but I think the ball went behind Welbeck, but Ozil definitely should have scored it. He just needed to touch it and it was in. If you can't create chances you have to be clinical. I counted 3 half chances along with that full chance and we wasted all of them.
Just to correct Thierry, who is only doing what it takes to be a pundit - lying - Ozil was easily, easily, the best player on the pitch. It was Santi who didn't step up today. In the gypo match Santi was the key. Even though he was in that crazy role that only Wenger could dream up he was all over the place linking the play, chasing, winning the ball, making sure the play was constantly in the opponent half and they had no respite. He was mastered by Matic and Ramires today. No criticism intended because, fuck me isn't this obvious, Santi is not a combative central midfielder. That's the position we lack, somebody to compliment Wenger's lucky Coquelin find.
But this does mean Wenger has to make a choice. Ozil or Santi. Wenger will never make that choice, he'd rather shoehorn both. A manager with a sense of proper squad rotation could prosper in that situation. We have a daddy who wants to do the right thing by his kids.
Q: What about Arsenal fans 'Boring, boring Chelsea' chants?
Mourinho: I think ten years without the title, that's boring'
