I did speak about a positive earlier about Vermaelen playing good. But overall, not too many positives to take from this game, we lose to United again, and have to put up with their **** face ****y annoying fans.
I can't stand the ****ers, there's no group of more arrogant fans than those ****s, the day they're put in their places, which they have been quite a few times already this season, all the more better. They've lost to Pool, lost to City, more like raped by City, drew to Chelsea, now they beat us 1-0 in quite a **** game, and they think they're great again. We need to give these guys a good beating when they come to the Emirates and send their fans back to United (actually London) walking like they've just had a banana forcefully inserted up their backsides.
I don't like posting "knee jerk" reactions to games so I decided not to post my thoughts on the game until the dust had settled. I thought we played quite well at the back but once again we got done on a set piece.I don't know about others but i'm not a fan of "zonal marking".I think you should just mark a player and stick to him.Some of our passing was piss poor and Cazorla,Ramsey and Ozil didn't seem to be on top of their game.I'm not using this as an excuse for our defeat but I wonder if the illness in the squad was worse than we are led to believe
I actually don't mind zonal marking as much in set pieces as in some other situations against pressing teams (think Dortmund and Bayern Munich at home). They chase our players down every second we have the ball, whereas we just look to our left and to our right to see which of us is going to take him on.
Im not a massive fan of it but if you go back a few years we used to concede from set pieces pretty much every game so they must be doing something better, especially when you look at our team of dwarves
Oh I beg to differ. Have you ever met young Arsenal fans? or some Liverpool fans? Make sure you avoid certain Chelsea fans. Dont go abroad either, especially to Spain, Italy, Germany or France. Infact just avoid football fans in general, its safer that way.
Not sure whats poor about it. In 3 games against the big clubs we've won 1, drawn 1 and lost 1. The loss was at City. Most will lose there. We beat the league leaders and made them look average and a draw against Chelsea? Hows everyone else done against you chaps?
I wouldn't celebrate a drab 1-0 victory, especially as you were defending for dear life for the entire second half at OT. You will do well to break the top 4 this season, and you know that.
defending for our lives ,laugh> Are you high? We had the best chances in the second half. You had the ball, we had the threat. typical united v arsenal game. You win **** all with the ball, surely you have learnt that by now.
