    Not bad but not great. We are playing like we don't want to conceed so not trying anything too exciting. We haven't looked vulnerable though, just not particularly threatening either. Ramsey had the best chance and did well to get the chance but failed to take it. We need to use Giroud more, soem crosses would be nice but we don't seem to be having much luck out wide. Walcott is looking better comming inside (winning free-kicks etc), but looks like he thinks he needs to make something happen by himself.

    The team need to step it up in the second half.

    Still feel like there are goals to come in this.

    Not all bad, we just need to step it up in the final 3rd.

    Whats the point in a striker who doesnt have the technical skill to receive the ball on the ground in a fast paced game?

    Here's a nice stat, in 135 minutes of play, Arsenal have only had 2 shots on target. :). Indeed, we're playing well, and not so bad, nothing to see here folks, no, everything's okay.....Right......

    Yes sir, at least you see most people talking sense there, unlike here.

    I wanna see someone actually testing their defence because at the moment their defence isnt even breaking a sweat.

    We are still trying to pass the ball into the net.

    Is Bambi on the bench? Hopefully not, or that'll be Wenger's plan b. We can't score so we bring our worst player on.

    Bambi is Gerv if you didn't know.

    Well if Ramsey had got his shot away he would have scored. We're getting opportunities, and are not far off taking them. Whether or not we get a shot away isn't going to tell the whole story.

    You'd think we were 3-0 down with a terrible performance. It isn't even a bad performance.

    My only problem at the moment is Ramsey. On the wing. Awful decision.

    He's been one of our better players, maybe even our best. I doubted the selection too, but he's not doing that badly to be fair.

    On further review, Ramsey tripped over himself.

    Noooo, if Giroud is injured, we're so screwed.
