Match Reaction Arsenal 5-1 Neverton

[Power n Glory]

Whilst you can heap praise on them for a blistering first half....

It says more about a team if you either set up second half to be strong in defence and hit on the counter, or you just keep banging it. Either way, you still need a plan, and you need to be organised.

It didn’t matter today, but you make performances as a team acceptable, like we saw 2nd half, the mentality can never be right for winning the big ones.

The big teams just keep on. Keep crucifying. No fucking mercy.

Mhki and Ozil though. Spunktastic.

I fear a better team would have put us under serious pressure in the second half. Great first half but the 2nd half was a snooze and we looked sloppy. It was so bad a dozed off for 20 minutes or so.

Everton let us off a few times. Better opposition won't.
But at least if we play like we did in the first half we're worth watching.

First half was entertaining. So much better to watch. But the midfield and defence are our weak areas. Once Everton applied a little pressure and pressed more, we were making sloppy mistakes and couldn't get going. We miss Wilshere.

Really looking forward to Spurs at Wembley. Our away form has been shocking but because of our record at Wembley I really think we’ll give a good account of ourselves. Hoping for a fast start, no doubt Spurs will come out of the traps quick too.

yes we've more experience of playing - and winning - there than most

we'll have to score 2-3 times to win it though as we won't keep them out for the full 90
