    Where is the yellow for that deliberate foul?

    Actually this is the worst we've played since the 8-2.

    Need a set piece or a bit of luck to get back into this game

    Not nearly as bad as the commentary team are making out.

    What a disgusting first half performance, absolutely disgusting, lucky not to be down 3 or 4 nil.

    No, it was worse than they made out. It was ****ing hopeless from start to finish.

    At least now everybody can clearly see that you are indeed, quite delusional.

    Worst half of the season so far. Report card reads "must try harder"

    Looked more like a midtable side than a title chasing one, if I'm honest. Southampton have been great, we just have not got going...

    Probably the worst 45 mins we've played this season. It can only get better in the second half.

    The Arteta and Flamini combo does not work. The gap between those two and our forward players is bloody huge. Nobody there to link the play from that deep midfield position. Would risk it and bring on the OX and take off one of Arteta or Flamini.

    Move Carzorla into the middle. Bring Poldi on.

    Arteta has been one of the worst players on the pitch, looks totally unfit. Been rushed back. Keep Flamini on, bring on Oxlade Chamberlain.

    Sorry but the referee needs to call that handball - you cant play the ball onto your own hand - always a handball. Fonte has hold of Monreal's collar when he jumps. No yellow for the deliberate blocke. Foul leading up to the goal was not a foul, BFG got the ball.

    Sorry but these are big decisions for a referee to get wrong. Either he is incompetent, or paid off.

    Sorry Toledo, I like your optimism but we have been ****e. Slow, lacking ideas, giving the ball away, making mistakes in our own area. We are lucky to be going in at HT just one down and Wenger needs to give this bunch a ****ing rocket at HT because if we come out and play like that in the second half then we will lose this game comprehensively.

    I'd move Santi inside, he's been poor on the left. He can move things about a bit quicker in the centre. I'd put Pod on the left.
