Stoke v Arsenal 26/8/2012

[Cripps_orig]

We look so ordinary, no flair, no ideas, no real intelligence...pretty disappointing.

So normal Arsenal then

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Poor from Gibbs.

[Özim]

So normal Arsenal then

Pretty much, guess Wenger hasn't changed after all.

[Cripps_orig]

Put Pod up alongside Giroud.

Bring on Ox and Theo on the wings and go 4-4-2 ffs

4-5-1 has been utter shite

[Cripps_orig]

Stoke look the more likely to score

For AW, this is rocket science

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Parry.

Obviously deflected off an Arsenal man.

[Toronto Gooner]

When are they going to start regulating the wall distance properly? Moved forward so much ffs

They are "piloting" the use of a spray marker that fades after a short while. The referee paces out the distance and then sprays a line that the wall cannot move move forward of.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Decent effort rom Giroud, shame it was straight in to the ground.

[Cripps_orig]

That was a decent chance there for Giroud

Unfortunately it needed a worldy and Giroud is anything but
