Sometimes , it may look ridiculous if fans have to complain after winning a game . It doesn't matter how the the team have won because a win is a win .I wonder what those moaning fans would have said if Arsenal were held like Chelsea ? or lost like Barcelona or Man United ?
Are they looking for perfect football ? Well you can't get that every day.

It's a real problem to have a manager who watches a player get skinned alive all match and does nothing. An even bigger problem when the same manager is sitting next to a pacey full back. Team did okay considering they were heavily handicapped from the outset and did well to hang on when Monsieur Crackpot started making random subs at the end.Originally Posted by Alpha

More than once a season would be nice though
Society is now one polished horde
Formed by two mighty tribes, the bores and the bored.
"After all, it was the Gunners’ goalkeeper who started the move that culminated in Thomas’ crowning glory. It was Lukic who, in injury time, decided to throw the ball out to Lee Dixon rather than lump it long..."
I question how much of it is to do with a midfield of Coq, Cazorla and Ozil....
We have many gripes with Wilshere, Arteta and Ramsey but perhaps the balance of the midfield is a little different with one of those guys in there...
Just glad we won though and nice to be up to third. Several players are playing well simultaneously which is something we've struggled to make happen all season. A mentioned had Sanchez put away his chance it probably would had led to us controlling it a little more and panicking a little less.
It is frustrating but also very hard to assess as long as we do not have the medical sheet of those players left on the bench and we did not monitor them on the training ground . Are they fully fit to start ? Is there any risk of set-back ?
The manager took everything into account before taking any decision . But the best thing is we won the game .

I didn't watch the game (only the highlights on MOTD) but it looks like we rode our luck a bit. The penalty should have been a free kick and Welbeck looked just offside for the second. Very, very important three points considering the other results.
Why Bellerin was on the bench?

Rosicky is the missing link. Always has been. I don't think Ramsey, Wilshere or Arteta will add anything positive to our midfield. They've had long lay offs and will struggle to find their groove.
I agree, although Ramsey has had a long time this season to struggle to find "his groove", we need a holding midfielder in the summer and that's going to make us overloaded in the central midfield position and i now see him as someone we could potentially cut our losses with. His brilliant form last season would see to it that we'd get plenty of money for him
If they are on the bench then surely they can play? Otherwise WTF is going on? Monreal has stepped up a lot this season, but he's still a sitting duck for pace. Wenger must know this. People say "narrow margins" make the difference and this is true. If you want to be consistent and be on the right side of those narrow margins then sure, you need to take some risks, but suicide is a sure thing not a risk. You start Gibbs if he is fit. You neutralise the threat and let the rest of the team benefit. Then if Gibbs can't make the 90 hopefully the team has done enough by the time a switch has to be made. If the manager makes this fundamental mistake against a decent team then we could be out of the game in the first 20 minutes. We've seen it before and that's the worry, he doesn't seem to learn and then use painful lessons.
Winning is good. The 3 points are vital. Nobody says otherwise. But we want to keep on winning and keep on getting the three points. In a casino if you have a system you stand a chance of coming out on top. If you are just gambling then the house wins in the end. In football if you have a system then you can see consistency and progress. If you are just making it up as you go then expect to lose big at some point, usually when it matters most. This is what Arsenal fans complain about, the false dawns. Win, win, win, here comes the big game... get a hiding. We've seen it before and the signs are we'll see it again. This is entirely down to the manager.
