    I am very concerned. While it is true to say we had the majority of possession and controlled much of the game - none of this translated in to goals. Any goals that came about were the result of penalties and a ricochet off Walcott that he knew nothing about. None of our goals were crafted through our play. And we still have that glass jaw when it comes to the sucker punch.

    Just about got back from my mini-break in Cornwall to catch the second half.

    Best I've seen us play for about 3 months.

    Well done the boys.

    We're really struggling to craft good goals these days. Nevertheless, at least the second half was played at a high pace and urgency. I don't think we have the creativity to combine high intensity football with precision passes and moves. Perhaps if Wilshere was available we could do this, but he's not back for a while unfortunately.

    I think that's a bit unfair mate.

    The goals all came from us being quick, direct and with some top notch passing. We may have gotten lucky with the ricochet, but the build up play was the mopst incisive I've seen in quite a while.

    Defensively we always look all over the place whenever we sit back. I don't know why Wenger doesn't try to deal with this issue tbh. We always look like we're able to concede whenever we try to close a game out.

    we have been ok in defence with our 1st choice defenders tbf, we just needed TV5 to organise the defence a bit better instead of going forward too much.

    My point is that while we can play well and with intensity - we can't stick the ball in the net because Van Persie aside, we lack the confidence and composure to finish off any of our moves.
