    I think our defence is appalling. Bould has made absolutely no difference because Wenger is so arrogant he probably gives him two minutes with the defence at the end of training. The rest of the time the defence is probably learning to play tappy-tappy shit with the rest of the team

    TBF to bould he is not working with the best of defenders or keepers. Yeah Jenks/Gibbs/Merts have been awesome this season but our GK's have been terrible. like SWAYR said you can't coach shit out of shit tbh it is what it is. Mannone will never been world class and true to fact a quality GK should have been brought in.

    It don't help TV5 seems to bomb up the pitch instead of staying in place. but like you say its more of less they are learning tippy tappy. Some need to learn the basics though.

    that's not right. the shape of the team is far better than previous seasons but individual mistakes keeping popping up, which is down to individual concentration. plus, years of haphazardness back there won't be rectified in 8 games.

    Agreed, it looks a lot more organised but there's always a critical weakness somewhere. Right now it's a disaster of a keeper who has zero command over his box and whose decision making is comedy strip material. You want a back five, a back four isn't good enough. Arteta is doing his job in front of the defence, Merts and Jenks and even Gibbs for most part have been doing an okay job (because let's not get carried away). Vermaelen has been undisciplined though, just as he assumes the captaincy. It's so Arsenal, topsy turvy.

    It's little bit objective but I would put a lot of the goals down to individual errors rather than systemic failure.

    I think the goals v Olympiakos and West Ham were poorly defended, but most of the others involved some kind of error in judgement or handling.

    Wouldn't have gotten us more than a point anyway. Pod has been much quieter of late, and I wonder whether he struggling to work off of Giroud. Gervinho on the right is like a different player, a shit one.

    I think some things can be over analysed.

    Sometimes a good goal is just that. The West Ham goal wasn't necessarily bad defending OR an individual error.

    Every team in the league will say that any goal conceded could be avoided. But that's what it's all about.

    Our problem is getting the basics right consistently, and not repeating the same mistakes over and over.

    Problem wasn't defending on Saturday....it was just another gaff by a Keeper who is not good enough for this level. Szcehevehjkey on form, is decent enough....but when he's not, we have no adequate back up.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    True, sometimes goals are unavoidable, and Diame's finish was excellent. If I were was Ramsey though, I would have been pretty disappointed with that.

    IF you were Aaron Ramsey, what part of your game wouldn't you be disappointed with?
