The ref gave them everything today, it's no wonder players dive around like fannies when they know they're going to get the decision every time.

Two nil down with 15 minutes left you'd take a draw. I think I'd have taken it at the start actually. Felt a bit hard done by to be 1-0 down, I felt we'd been the better side, but for all our nice passing in midfield we weren't really creating chances and were missing a real threat up front.
Giroud made a difference, he missed a couple but at least he was having chances. Nice ball from Cazorla for Ramsey to get a goal back, lovely header from Giroud to equalise.
Overall happy enough with the result but the performance was a bit patchy again, we don't seem to have really got going yet.
I really didn't see Ozil in the game at all. IMO, he either needs to play at a different position or he needs to be benched. For 42 million quid, he should be 5 times the player he is now.Originally Posted by Power_n_Glory
Its his 2nd season and he is fast running out of excuses.
Arsene Wenger, the only football manager that got paid 8 million quid to do nothing but sit on his arse..
I was watching the game with same yankees in New York who had no clue what soccer is .We didn't play quite well but we were unlucky to concede the two goals especially the second one which was clearly offside .
I can't single out any individual for the performance but it is clear to see the team is not ready yet but will get there with the time .
But the team deserves some credit as Goodison Park is not an easy ground when you are 2 nil down . That point will prove valuable in the future .
DO NOT POSTPONE TODAY'S DUTY FOR TOMORROW .IT MAY BE TOO LATE .
It's his first game back after no pre-season.
Think.
NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.
I was a bit annoyed that we were buying into Naismith's craftiness so often. Thought we just needed to be a bit more savvy about dealing with him.....and against them their full backs always have a telling influence. We might start approaching our games with them with a plan for their hobbits at full back! I think we were quite fortunate Barkley wasn't playing today.
Probably being a little irritable but when Giroud scored the equaliser I was a bit annoyed by the celebration. Just wanted him to grab the ball and put it back on the centre spot! FFS!!!
I probably would have taken a draw before the match so not terribly dissatisfied, especially having been 2-0 down at 83 minutes.
We need to sort out the midfield in these away games
All over the place
I wouldn't be starting Wheelchair every game tbh, he has no niche role or special trait and we have several midfielders who are superior to him in every aspect. Can't help but feel we're not seeing the best of Ramsey because of his presence.
Giroud, love him or hate him is the best option up front for us until a superior player is brought in. All this talk of Alexis or even Theo up front is nice in theory but when you consider the role Wenger has carved out for his striker, then you see it won't work unless we change formation but that isn't going to happen.
