Because Wenget has made Vermaelen captain?
Because of Vermaelen's captaincy, Koscielny is dropped?
Because he dropped Jenkinson despite his consistently excellent performances?
Because Gibbs is always injured?
Because we have no defensive-minded midfielders?
Because we don't defend well as a team?
Very good performance, defensively we looked very very solid. An extra bit of quality and we would have probably gone through tonight.
Fair play, the effort was superb.
I don't think we defended very well, Martinez totally bossed the midfield whilst we played hospital balls in front of our goal. They really didn't get out of 2nd gear against us today, as we created fuck all chances (although uncharacteristically, we were more efficient this time round.) Still, better than the shit kicking we all thought we where going to get.
Kos shows once agains he's our best centre back by some distance. He'll be dropped for next match of course.
Best back four display I've seen from us in a while, did well considering how many times are midfielders gave the ball away. I think Ramsey must be some sort of undercover agent, and a bad one at that. Its just incredible how many times he passes the ball to the oppo players.
Giroud and Walnut were poor, or just not good enough. But overall, an excellent result... hopefully we can take some confidence from this...
Fabianski new number 1?
Kos, Rosicky and GHELkinson first choice from now on?
Or does computer say no?
Defence and keeper were brilliant.
Theo and Giroud tried their hardest but once again, the midfield fucks up. Cazorla is a myth. Ramsey is shit, Rosicky was poor and then there was Arteta. Wtf is he on? Awful player.
Also why when we need goals are we taking off our biggest threat, top scorer and most assists produced in Theo?
Captain and manager were awful
