I don't think Poldi is going to hold his time at Bayern with too much reverence.
Something big could be happening behind the scenes, with Szez not even on the bench and Poldi not getting any field time.
Anyway, big three points for us today.
Rosicky! He was amazing. Scored two and was better 'keeper than Fabianski![]()
This happens every year, Rosicky seems to get a zolt up his arse whenever he needs to play for a new contract

Urgent requirement in the summer to sell Mertesacker and Giroud and replace with proper footballers. These guys are mega fuck ups and so slow it must be an in-joke of some sort how they get a game.
Odd to see us not collapsing under pressure. Down to 9 and facing WBA, Webb and Giroud I expected us to crumble. But they hung on and grabbed a narrow win from the jaws of a straightforward victory. Wenger tried but he couldn't haul WBA back into it. First he took off our pace and one of our only outlets, then he removed the player linking the midfield and finally he snuffed out the last bit of technical quality. But the donkeys remaining defied him and hoofed their way to 3 points.
Webb ran out of time trying to get all our players in the book, despite conjuring up 6 minutes extra.
These kind of mud and farts performances might drag us into 4th or even 3rd if the chavs go on holidays early. It's all very undignified and an insult to football but seeing the Utd/ Chav match it's clear we aren't the only shite in this league. Far from it.
Hidden in the piles of excrement there were some top quality moments from Rosicky, a throw back to the technical and direct football we used to play. This made the game worth the watch. His first touch and direct strike (well saved) and his sharpness in the follow up and neat finish ( GiroudRamsey
) showed the rest how it should be done.
Monreal was okay at the back, stayed nice and tight to his man all match. Sagna is finished, obviously.
Für eure Sicherheit
Excellent result against Webb Bromwich Albion.
Grit, determination, spirit, belief, grit.
Mertesacker had already tried to undo our good work before he got sent off. The defence held out well though, like they did against Sunderland.
Rosicky.
Arteta, Ramsey, Gervinho and Fabianski all did well too.
And Koscielny is a bit awesome.
I hope Walcott and Wilshere actually have to earn their way into the team.
It was a pretty poor performance and we were very, very lucky to escape with the 3 points. Webb didn't give them a penalty for Koscielny's foul in the box in the first half. When Mertesacker played a stupid pass, Kos did well to take a yellow or else WBA were 2 on 1 and in on goal. Then they were one-on-one and Mertesacker had to take the sending off. Flappy was flapping throughout and they also had a couple of horrendous misses at the end. Not sure how Lukaku missed his chance.
But, anyway, need Man Utd to batter Man City tomorrow and the second place is coming home.
We should have went for Demba Ba, does what Giroud does but a million times better
