    Match Reaction v Man Utd

    Excellent for the first 40 minutes, we had them rattled. Everything was going a little too well though, so that imbalance had to be addressed by a calamity from Sagan.

    We probably spent half time feeling sorry for ourselves because the 2nd half was shite and was pretty much a textbook United performance on how to nullify Arsenal.

    Not the worst result in the world but could have been so much better if we weren't so typically accident prone.

    Kos and Merts were good. As were Ramzi and Rosicky.

    The rest? Meh.

    Great first 40 minutes, turgid for the rest. The 2 centre backs did well and Theo looked threatening, but the rest were mediocre. Having said that, a draw's a decent result on the whole.

    Good start. Had to take full advantage in this period. We didn't.

    Then Sagna evened the scores.

    Any momentum was destroyed with WUMger taking off our two best attacking players, not taking off the utterly hopeless Sagna/Walcott axis and bringing on the ineffective Wilshere.

    Cazorla, Sagna and Walcott (despite his goal) don't deserve to be starting given their form. Podolski and Wilshere are not match fit or fit full stop.

    Rosicky, Ramsey, Koscielny and Mertesacker our best players again.

    Three wins or bust. Maybe.

    As a great fence-sitter once said, could have been better, could have been worse.

    As disappointing as a draw against United can be,

    i'll tell you what though, it seems at last we have found a formula at the back with merts and kos that has made us look quite solid since the start of march. if we keep that for next season at least that could be one worry off our minds.

    40 minutes of intense pressing from a side that rarely does. Only going to be gassed after that in all likelihood.

    A point isn't bad but it always sucks when you're the team that had the lead.

    I did say during the game we'd be nackered from the pressing, I never expected us to keep that up. It's just a shame it took an utter fuck up to bring it all crashing down.

    What's left to say about this team.

    Ramsey - admirable work rate but football wise he does not look like he will be world class by any stretch of the imagination.

    Wilshire - for all the hype I am really struggling to recall a world class performance from him this season.

    Arteta, Carzola - good footballers but not world class

    Kos I actually think is one of the best defenders in the league.

    Sagna is and has been a thick bag of shit all season.

    Average,average average - well done Wenger, looking at Dortmand what's your fucking excuse now you useless prat
