    That was really comfortable. They rarely threatened and looked very shaky at the back.
    Thought their goal was quite unexpected. 3-0 would've been about right.
    Didn't want you to win, obviously, but you've had a lot harder games than that this season.

    Yeah I must admit that I didn't think it would be that easy. Hull gave us a far tougher test in our last home game.

    we should have got 4 or 5 easily.
    Thibo had 2 great saves.

    Coz of our poor finishing, without Thibo could have been pool game all over.
    fine margins

    Hull have looked surprisingly decent under their new manager, to be fair.
    Not bad for a bloke that got sacked by Sporting for wearing the wrong suit! <laugh>

    Fair enough. Can't say that I agree, but I see what you're getting at.

    They did look decent mate. There were times when we were hanging on at times, but we managed a couple of goals. They're playing some decent stuff atm.

    without our Legend's gift, at 2-1 with 3 minutes to go - would have become mighty crazy..

    Our finishing & counter attacking needs to improve ALOT to get 2 or 3 more goals.

    You don't look like conceding many, though.
    Thought you only let that one in due to complacency.

    agreed. Don't see that level of lethargy at 2-0.
    Still our counter attacking was ****e. Cannot see that continue under King Conte.

    Damaging defeat for us and basically hands the title to Chelsea today. 12 points clear, I cannot see anybody catching them.

    We aren't good enough for the title, today showed that again. Depressing but cannot hide from the facts.

    Arsenals main objective now is ensuring St Totteringhams day is finalised as quickly as possible.

    Unless there is a massive disturbance in the force, then that is nailed on, even if we leave it until the last day of the season <laugh>
