    That's the story of our Season.

    We defend like ****.

    Our midfield create a ton of chances and dominate posession. Our strikers lack any cutting edge, we need too many chances to score.

    ****ing suicidal defending <grr>

    Other than that we were pretty good, we've got goals in us in the second half. Ramsey has done okay, but I'd replace him with Rosicky and get more creativity in there.

    We shot ourselves in the foot in this game, Spurs have been nothing special. It's up to us to get it back on track <ok>

    Its sad to see Arsenal fans on here blaming their pet hate players every time Arsenal are losing.
    Arsenal can still win.

    That second goal was one of the most atrocious pieces of play I think I have ever seen. How on this Earth can you dare call yourself a professional football club and not even follow one of the most basic rules of the sport , PLAY UNTIL THE WHISTLE YOU MORONS.

    Seriously though is there any of those 'Defending For Dummies' going to send to the Arsenal boys?

    Have we had any chances yet? No.

    If we do get top four this season it will be a damming indictment on whichever of Spurs or Chelsea we overtake. We simply aren't good enough to get 3 points off top teams anymore.

    Because its easier to just stick your hand up in the air than to run and catch the attacker.

    I hate to say it but someone like Mancini or Mourinho would actually not hesitate to make changes ASAP if the game plan isn't working. Arsene has become more and more tactically inept. I wouldn't be surprised if Wenger only makes his first sub at 70minutes when it's too late... but you never know... maybe he reads not606.

    Arsenal have dominated the game. Kept the ball, passed well, and up until the second goal went in it was basically all Arsenal. But we just fail hard in the final third, no cutting edge so far. On the other hand, spurs have been on the back foot and had some shakey moments, but when they have had opportunities they have burried them.

    2 goals down in the NLD isn't game over at all. There will be more goals to come - let's hope it's us scoring them!

    Vermaelen needs to sort himself out - his form is not good enough at the moment and Kosc should be starting for us.

    Defending was atrocious for both goals, we handed those goals to Spurs.

    We've now got to pull this one out of the bag and we're going to have to go for it, we played quite well in the first half (other than the defending for the two goals) so we've got goals in us.

    This game is not over yet <ok>

    We need an extra spark - i'd get Rosicky on for the yellow carded Ramsey (who has had a good game so far, but i think Rosicky will help us get goals).
