    You have you wonder what preparation Wenger has done for this season in the slightest.

    Wenger should be tearing strips off of Chambers and the whole back 4, they could have cost us 3 or 4 goals already. If the pass isn't on, then ****ING GET RID, don't try and pass your way out and box us in.

    Expecting a much better defensive performance in the 2nd half, LIverpool wont' change their hoofball approach, so we need make sure we don't give it away and then we can actually allow our attacking players to build a head of steam.

    This game has to have goals, a 0 0 would be ridiculous <laugh>

    As bad as Chambers was, best thing is just take him off and leave it at that, a scolding would probably demoralise him even more which is not good for us if he's going to be the 4th choice cb.

    Cech 0 - 0 Pool
    Scoreline doesn't do any justice.

    Pool are more fluent. Looks like their Suarez season.

    Drag Chambers off, ffs. Put Monreal or Debuchy at CB, Chambers is mentally shot in this game.

    So it looked, though we are talking inches to be fair, difficult decision.

    Nah, that would just destroy his confidence. Also who are you going to replace him with ? Wenger needs to have a word about not trying to play it out of defence if the pass isn't on. Other than that, he's actually doing okay.

    I thought for the first 15-20 minutes we looked like we had turned up to play. Hassling for the ball, smiling faces, nice passing moves, a disallowed goal. And then boom, all of a sudden we look all over the place, chambers is letting the occasion get to him and it's making all sorts of trouble for the team. Liverpool have seen this and are pressing us high up the pitch which is making it difficult to get the ball out. Now is the time to bring on Walcott or oxo to give us an outlet because the midfield aren't managing to get it forward from defense as they are spending too much time covering for silly mistakes at the back!

    Cech has been quality, some very good saves.

    Despite the way our performance has deteriorated we should be 1-0 up if the officials were doing there jobs!

    We need to come out better than that in the second half. They need to pull themselves together and man up.

    Oh and I thought Gabreil did very well on a few occasions in that half, but chambers is struggling.

    I won't argue against that, we could have easily conceded 3 or 4 <yikes>

    Erm no, not luck, that's why he is a world class GK who we signed. Don't see how you can compare a legit goal being ruled out, with legit saves from a world class GK.

    I think Gabriel has been quality.

    Cech - awesome
    Bellerin - good
    Chambers - one of the worst performances I've ever seen
    Gabriel - good
    Monreal - good
    Coquelin - good
    Cazorla - average
    Ramsay - poor
    Ozil - anonymous
    Sanchez - anonymous
    Giroud - anonmous

    Arsenal are bottling this. Not a wum, but the unforseen problems in defence have had some sort of mental affect on the rest of your players. WTF is wrong with your midfield. The passing is hesitant, underhit, and seems to be a symptom of disbelief in the whole team. Man up ffs!

    I agree except I'd say Ramsey started very well but then faded. And I'd probably use different words to similar effect re chambers <laugh>
