    Where is Walcott these days? He does not even get a mention on the injury news anymore. He starts the season well, goes a bit of the boil, injury and then no news.

    I'm sorry but when you have midtable Championship teams ripping you to shreds and dominating the game, that suggests to me we have serious tactical flaws.

    We're attempting to play a high line without pressing the ball. Suicidal.

    This half is as bad as the first against Bournemouth.

    1) they will run outta steam in 2nd half
    2 ) when they played Mrs rcl's team (Wednesday) two of their players beat **** outta each other and got sent off so all is not yet lost

    I can't even get annoyed at this anymore because I genuinely expect this to be the norm. Miracle that it's only 1-0, to be honest. I'll take a draw right now if you hand it to me because I can't see how this is going to improve!

    One thing I have become sure of is that once Wenger goes, his lovechild Ramsey does not have a future at Arsenal. Let's just call a spade a spade. He is not good enough. He's been outshone against a Championship side and has been poor for two and a half years now.

    Utter **** that 1st half. You would have thought we'd learned the lessons from Bournemouth, to come out at match the level of the opposition, but no. We've just let them dominate us.

    Hopefully we can show the same level as we did in the last 30 mins against Bournemouth, because at the moment this team are staring a massive humiliation in the face.

    Even if we end up winning this 5-1, it doesn't change the fact that most of our performances this season have been well below-par and changes need to be made one way or another.

    This is the only realistic trophy we can win and we're letting the opportunity slip through our hands at the first hurdle. Horrible stuff.

    You guys are looking terrible defence at 6s and 7s and just being outfought. For the players who arent really getting any gametime they sure arent fighting or working that hard.

    As usual ramsay is poor which ive said for a long time and your players are too blase - see girouds dink or ramsays shot. Whether thats just disrespect or lack of confidence its just too casual

    To be fair, if we win this 5-1 then that will show that we're able to win games regardless of how badly we start. It's no excuse for that 1st half performance, but I'd be over the moon if this game ends up being 1-5 to us !

    I'm starting to wonder do our guys see a football from one match to another,their control and passing has been shocking.

    Late goal from Giroud. It's becoming the story of your season.
