    We were worse last season so that makes you about 6 months old. Shocking that Arsenal lost to a team that had to be patched together at the back with youth team players and midfielders. Do you see now why Welbeck will never be a prolific scorer? It was all on a plate for him yesterday. Up against a 19 year old and 20 year old whose games he was well aware of and he still couldn't make an impact. He'll be back on the wing now that Giroud is fit.

    It is to Arsene and his disciples.

    Perfect doesnt mean pretty. This was a determined and gritty performance executed brilliantly. Van gaal knew exactly what arsene was going to do and set up for it.

    With our injuries we were never outplaying you. So we had to soak up all the pressure and wait patiently for a break away.

    Your off your rocker lol

    So you figured us out after twenty minutes but waited another twenty before doing anything? Rofl.

    And no, this team is terrible, you have a couple of good attacking players and a quality goalkeeper. The rest are total ****. Was genuinely surprised how poor utd are this season. Pure ****.

    It's an embarrassment that we didn't beat you when we dominated you so badly. I've never seen us outplay you so vastly and not get a result.

    It was a lucky result for you, not some master plan by lvg. It doesn't prove your team is awesome or really tactically astute. It means arsenals finishing was poor and you got lucky. Lol.

    I'm not getting excited about the performance other than it was pleasing to see the team so committed to staying in the game when they were under the cosh and executing the game plan that the manager set out for them.

    The game plan was, get outplayed, be really lucky to still be in the game and take advantage of an injury with a lucky deflection? You were **** and lucky, accept it lol

    It wasn't executed brilliantly, you got torn apart, we opened you up over and over again and but for woeful finishing you would of been out of the game at half time. It was luck, not a master plan that gave you the win.

    Oh I agree, I don't think utd should of stopped play of the ref didn't! I'm just highlighting that you lot going ahead was about fortune and foul play rather than a master plan or utd being really good.

    Your previous comments laughing, gloating and goading about this result suggest your excited by a flukey win were you got dominated. You should be concerned not trying to wum other fans lol

    I'd get it if we got comprehensively beaten, but your performance was shockingly bad.

    The game plan was to counter. Which we did many times.

    Sit back and let arsenal create all tge space in the world. Theres a reason di maria played up top.

    You were worse against us this season than last. And in our defence we had the 19 year old chambers and skinny LB monreal at CB. We have a huge injury list too, it doesn't change that you were s**t yesterday.
    But I agree it's shocking we didn't score against such a shoddy team.

    I'm laughing at your bitterness. Wengerites (note Wengerites, not Arsenal fans) whine about defeats like no other group apart from the Dippers.

    You had a world cup winning centre back. You had one player out of position.

    You didn't counter once in the first 37 minutes. That is almost half the entire game that you did literally nothing. That isn't good game plan. You failed to execute the game plan. We didn't give you any time or space to counter and closed your forward players very quickly. You got totally dealt with.

    Then comes the lucky goal and it all turns around, we had to throw men forward and the space opened for you to play on the counter. At that point you were always going to get chances to put the game to bed.

    Had any of our players not failed so ridiculously hard with there finishing you never would of been able to play on the counter.

    It was luck, not a clever game LAN that gave you the win, just accept it lol

    Actually the "wengerites" tend to not whine whilst the supposed "arsenal fans" go into meltdown at leas that's the way it's told on our board lol

    Looked like it worked to perfection.

    The plan was to concede the ball to arsenal and sit deep before hitting arsenal on the break. What part did we get wrong?

    We had monreal the skinny LB playing at CB and a youth at RB. We were also wi out a number of injured players, debuchy, koscielny, Walcott, ozil, that's four guaranteed first 11 players, in amongst other injuries.

    Not entirely sure what your point is? Are we trying to have a "whose injuries are worse?" Debate? Lol

    So what if it took 37 minutes? Counter attacks are not pre planned but take advantage of an opportunity. Arsenal battered us for twenty mins believing we were an easy win. Was always going to happen.
