    it was one nil from a set piece at their gaff , you make it sound like they ran riot and scored 4 from open play .

    we made ONE defensive mistake in 90 mins . ...psychological block ?????

    Thing is you are a whole 5 points behind us. And even Pool are a whole 3 points in front of you. Despite your win you're in no position to gloat right now.

    Well we're still 5 clear of United (having got this jinx fixture out of the way), 6 clear of City and 5 clear of Chelsea. Liverpool will disappear into obscurity before too long so not too worried about them. Not all bad. We need to win our next three fixtures, Southampton, Hull and Cardiff. That will give us 34 points going into a tough run of games in December.

    Who's gloating?

    and 3 points behind Liverpool? They'd need to be 30 ahead of us to even have a chance of finishing above us.

    To be honest, if we had to lose a game this was the best weekend to do it. Chelsea drew, City and Spurs both lost and we were away at Old Trafford. Hopefully we can regroup and get 3 points against Southampton. Walcott and Podolski to come back soon, more depth, more options, more rotation and rest for our top players. Not a disaster by any means.

    That was absolute garbage today, not good enough, from A-Z we were rubbish.

    Wenger deserves credit when he does good, but when he does bad, then he deserves all the critique, and his recent record against United is beyond bad, it's not good enough. It's always the same **** against them, no purpose, no proper tactics, ****ing hell, sort it bloody out against Man United, getting so sick of seeing the same film over and over again.

    I hope Wenger doesnt show Giroud the same level of patience he has shown to Ramsey , we could be watching him squander chances for 2 years .

    DUMP HIM AND BUY A STRIKER !


    Or give Rambo the shirt and be done with it. :grin:

    At least show some fire against them, it's as if we rolled over for them again, we never play with passion against them any more. Could you imagine Vieira and co. just rolling over for them?

    garbage is 8-2 friend .

    That wasnt the worst ive seen us play , by a long chalk .

    But we seemed to get our tactics completely wrong.

    Rambo was contained largely , and THAT is a black mark for Arsene.

    The first half was shocking, we didn't go in hard, barely pressured them, giving them space, was a ****ing disgrace. At least if we lose go down with a fight, not like that.

    Wenger has no clue when he comes up against United, and that's a fact.

    We were garbage, United weren't good either which is why it was only 1-0, but we were more bad, we didn't show up in the first half, and in the second half when we tried to play a bit, we were terrible. It's another loss against United, that's all that counts.

    Our worst performance against United was the 2-1 last season. we showed nothing in that game, we played better in the 8-2 than we did in last year's game. Today was slightly better than the 8-2, but not by much.

    They were all over us in the 8-2, today was nowhere close to that

    ???

    Rolled over ?

    if one nil and them running themselves into the ground is us rolling over , i dunno what you would have called TWO nil .

    I know you are pi$$ed mate .
    We all are but .....

    That was always gonna be a real bastard of a game and so it was.

    Try and keep it in perspective , you cant win every game , only one team has ever done that .

    And it aint this team .

    United can retain Fergie's winning mentality in big games that Arsenal have not had for 8 years.

    Chelsea retained that big game mentality for five years after Jose left. Let's hope United lose theirs a lot quicker please.

    This Arsenal squad needs to start beating clubs like Chelsea and United regularly, in big games, title deciders in March, April, May to get this winning mentality

    1-0 was kind. Smalling and Rooney should have scored and we should have had a penalty tbf.

    At least we showed attacking intent in the 8-2. If we'd taken our chances it would have been 8-6.
