Monreal wasn't as bad as I thought he would be in the centre of defence. Probably could get away with him as a CB against a few pub teams at home but anything harder than that is a definite no no.
Still need a CB.
Also thought Chesney had a few dodgy moments. His distribution at times is still very poor. Needs to watch his place with Ospina in the squad now.

I know the Adebayor comparison have already been made, least of by Wenger but Sanogo really seems to have Adebayor's habit of being unnecessarily offside all the time.
There was a moment in the first half where Alexis makes a killer run on the counter but has no options because Sanogo decides to stand 2 yards offside.
Also for Santi's goal, Sanogo was standing about 5 yards offside just on the edge of the 6 yard box when Santi shoots. Thankfully the linesman wasn't a homo and didn't judge him to to be "interfering with play" but it was a completely unnecessary risk to take. Also it was good for his sake as well that the GK didn't palm it out for a rebound chance as that would have been ruled out. It's not rocket science Yaya, start closing in on goal for the follow up only at the point when the ball leaves Santi's foot!
Really needs to cut that out of his game.
Was that the first scorcher Giroud has scored during his Arsenal career? That was an elite level striker type goal. More of the same please.
Giroud improves every year. Has been the case at every club he's been at. Wouldn't surprise me if he reaches early Drogba level type quality this year tbh.
@2:15 -
Wilshere yelling at Giroud for loitering in the changing rooms. Probably texting his model date for that night.

It was a wicked deflection that totally changed the flight of the ball. But it was good he was positive and took the shot.

Am I the only person who didn't see the deflection?
