Fair play to Arsene, whatever he said to Walcott at half time worked wonders. Well done Theo.

Rosicky played a blinder, and Van Persie was immense again. Sagna also did very well, typically erratic crossing aside.

Twitchy for England! He fucked it right up with his changes. Sandro came on presumably to shore it up and did fuck all. They were awful.

On train back from finsbury, fair to say we enjoyed that.

Ground is always superb for the derby and to come back like that was something to see.

Amazing how much better we looked once we got angry, we lack that Intensity so often in recent years, even Walcott made me regret my HT demands to drag him off

I think the teams response today was fantastic! I wasn't happy after the first 30mins we showed but boy what a comeback! Why can't we play more like this? The passion and desire, wenger wanted a response and at 0-2 the team finally came out and showed it. Theo was shocking first half but proved alot of doubters wrong by turning up in a big game with a brace. Hopefully that will get the fans off of his back as it doesn't help. Rosicky was immense! How much better did we look with him instead of Ramsey? Lets push on now and continue playing with this passion.

Dinobot you weird cunt, why do you even exist?

Woke up at 2pm yesterday and turned on the tv to see thesee were 2-0 down. When robin equalised I thought I wouldn't be able to live with myself if we won and I missed it, so ran to ground from my flat in 15 minutes and jusy made it for the second half. Thought I was going to have a heart attack. Football - bloody hell, eh?

I think yesterday summed up why we all love football. The crowd was hyper before the game and before we knew it we were 1-0 down. To be fair, Spurs could easily have had another goal before that diving cunt won a penalty. At 2-0 the fans were going ballistic, turning on the players and Theo in particular. At 2-0 Theo was getting the worst abuse I’ve ever heard and it was all deserved as he was having a stinker.

I was thinking to myself that it was vital we got one back before half time to stand any chance, then on cue Sagna scores a bullet header and then RvP lashed in a stunner to level it. The last time I saw the stadium erupt like that was when Arshavin scored the winner against Barcelona!

The second half couldn’t really have gone any better. Everything we tried just worked. Even Theo redeemed his shocking performance with two cracking goals. All was forgiven.

To see those mouthy wankers piling out the ground, tail between legs, leaving an empty corner of the stadium with about 20 mins left of the second half has made my year.

It also shows that a lot of our shit performances this year are just down to a lack of effort. If we played with the same commitment & determination as yesterday, we would be the ones sitting comfortably in third.

I think that's what has made the criticisms levelled at the team fair. We didn't play any differently or with different players, we just did it with far more purpose. After about 25 minutes it was the same old rubbish, then for some reason everyone started closing down, flying in and generally trying much harder. If anyone can work out what the catalyst was that would be great as if they carry on like that then third is still a possibility. Especially with Spurs' propensity for falling apart in the run in like a pair of Donnay pumps.

Matt Dickinson has a good piece in the Times today about the abuse of Walcott by the fickle Arsenal support. It's bad enough that it happened, but you'd think Steve would have the grace to not call it "totally justified" in the cold light of day. Get a grip, mate.

Even notoriously negative Le-Grove said "we shouldn't be lambasting players during a match". The home support is so quick to turn negative and it's never, ever going to help the team. Support and encourage your players if they're having a 'mare, don't give them abuse!
