    I'm not sure..... we had about 25 attempts on goal..... Ozil should have scored twice as should have Sanchez before Xhaka even thought about having his customary lunge.

    What we collectively did today worked, but not because of Giroud and I don't think he should be the main forward.

I knew were going to get nervy in the second half if we didn't put two past them early.
    The passing was better today. But the movement, the tempo, the ideas, the effectiveness of what we were doing, pure pub. We're not a very good team. Then again, there are no good teams in this league. The standard of football is simply dreadful. But worse, it's horrifying boring.

    Do we know if walcott is definitely fit and potentially ready for the game against Southampton? I read somewhere he's due back then.

    If so, he's perhaps a better outlet than Giroud.

    A good number of attempts but not much clean cut and I think a more mobile front three would have opened them up more. Box was often congested. With Alexis, I feel he'd have worked his way to having more of angle on goal from the middle instead of always having to work the ball from wide on to his strong foot.

    Why do our players swing their boots around in the penalty box? Coq was at it today but Kos and Monreal have dont it too this season. Pretty sure Mustafi got away with one too. When are they gonna learn how to defend?!

    The way Dostoy puts it, is a bit blunt, but I know what he means.

    I despise this "well don't support them" attitude, when you're 30 years in.

    The hate, is directed at the people who don't have Arsenal in their blood. The people who don't know what it is to be a gooner. The people who have made this club part of the extortion racket that is modern football.

    Tell me really, how can you be Arsenal, when the real Arsenal doesn't exist anymore, regardless of whether sky say they do or not?

    I just wish we'd play decent football. They can steal the whole world, tweet pictures of their cars and houses all week long, pretend to be twice as good as they actually are, kiss badges and do all that fake shit. The only show I want to see is on the pitch. When an entire billion quid league can't provide a ten minutes of entertainment in a weekend then football is dead. It's very easy to hate what it has been replaced by.

    Dunno but you're still here, that's what I was saying.
