Arsenal

dryness

[Art Vandelay]

We had better get a grip or this is going to be a massacre.

[KRP]

what a miss

[Petrousgyre]

Gervinho, how?

[The Fox]

How many of them has he missed now? Jesus Christ.

[Silent Runner]

Sweet Moses that was a counter attack like the ones we used to mount for fun. Don't know how Gerv missed that.

[Art Vandelay]

Spamhead, you total dildo.

And punished instantly. Stunningly shit defending.

[Steve007]

We just got punished for our shit wasteful finishing. Fucks sake.

[KRP]

Isn't that German guy supposed to be good in the air? FFS

[The Fox]

Santos is such a fat belm.

[Silent Runner]

2 unmarked players in the middle. Fucking comedy stuff.

[KRP]

Mertesacker is like that kid at school that grew too quickly. He looks so clumsy.

[Art Vandelay]

Six million actual pounds for Santos. Think about that for a moment.

[JDubYes]

That was beautiful.

[exwhyzed]

Proper Fifa goal

[KRP]

slick!

[Silent Runner]

Gerv and RVP are so good together.

[Guest]

You guys need to make sure you keep hold of RvP, he's a goal machine.

[KRP]

God if we had a proper defence we would actually be good.

[Art Vandelay]

Urgh.

[Naysonymous]

God if we had a proper defence we would actually be good.

I'd agree there. It doesnt seem to be a tactical thing either, Arsenal seem to concede more goals due to individual errors than pretty much anybody else. Certainly as a percentage of overall goals conceded. Two really soft goals today, they were queueing up for the first and I have no idea what Mertesacker was playing at for the second. Is he normally that weak?

[Silent Runner]

Is Mertesacker worse than Santos? I'm pretty sure he is. The useless, lumbering beanpole.

[mop]

Santos needs removing at half time. Thomas taking his place on the left.

Per didn't cover himself in glory for the 2nd which upset me because I fancy him a little. All in all, I don't think it's been that bad. Our full backs have been a wee bit shit. Djourou has steadied himself a little at least.

[Art Vandelay]

Let's get Kanu on.

[mop]

Is Mertesacker worse than Santos? I'm pretty sure he is. The useless, lumbering beanpole.

No.

[KRP]

Bring back Eboue.

[carlito]

I though Brazillian footballers waited till they were brilliant before they got fat.

Anyway he's not used to the pace of the league at all is he? Still he's a way to go before looking as woeful as Jose Enrique did in his first season and he's turned out alright.

[Steve007]

We're going to get hammered in the second half. Defence is a joke. Wouldn't surprise me if we let in at least another 2.

[mop]

Yep, I don't think Santos' problems are inherent at all (I sure hope not) but with the way he's keeps on getting burned on the right, he needs replacing.

[Steve007]

Mertesacker is like that kid at school that grew too quickly. He looks so clumsy.

I really want to know how he's got 75 caps for Germany.
