These short passes by Szczesny in tense situations are suicidal, he just won't learn that it's not worth it until we lose some final because of it some day.
Flamini is offering no defensive cover. They just run straight through him. I really hope we sign a DM tomorrow.
It's just struck me that their argument against video technology to help referees is meant to be that it would break up the tempo of the game ... and then they introduce this vanishing spray which seems to take 2 minutes for the ref to set up.
Wow super negative comments - we are not that bad! We are not only playing side ways which is good. I'm still confident we will win this game.
Sigh.. Sanogo upfront really?? Sometimes I find it hard to belive I'm watching the same Club that used to play Thierry Henry and Dennis Bergkamp.
sloooooooooooooooooooooooww , .......and cr@p having watched the pace in the Pool /Spurs game , this is sh1t football .
Also it's amazing how often the opposition score with their first shot on target against us. Why is that?
Key moment was Wenger keeping Kos on after that head injury IMO. We weren't that bad, but I don't think we'd conceded if he was not brought back in... he looked clearly disoriented.
Yeah folks, I said it earlier, people are kidding themselves if they think we can genuinely win the title with this team. It's a very good squad, good enough to simply challenge until February, and end up 4th, maybe 3rd, and maybe get a cup trophy, nothing more really, delusions of grandeur to think we can win the title and solidly challenge for Europe. It's so f**ing obvious we need a proper CDM, and a new world class striker to have a proper chance. We will probably still win today, but we've shown nothing in our first 5 games to indicate we are that much better than last season, it's pretty much the same story.
You've got to trust your players to a certain extent there, obviously koscielny said he was fine when he wasn't, and the physios gave him the ok. Been piss poor this first half anyway, ramsey pinging a couple of nice ones from deep but we seem to be really lackadaisical on the ball, can't cope with leicesters pressing (where have we heard that before). Need a proper direct outlet second half, sanogos link up has been alright (shame about everything else), but the ox needs to come on for him pronto, hopefully give us a bit of edge and give us our own release for the counter
We've played quite well so far. A definite improvement with our passing in both accuracy and pace, if we keep that up in the second half we will have opportunities to win this game. They've hit us on the counter very quickly whenever they have had the chance, they've looked dangerous a couple of times but in general we have dealt with it well. For the goal koscielny looked confused and I hope he is ok and not out for any other games. Why did the medical team think he was ok to continue?
