    Or maybe coquelin for Arteta and Walcott on for debuchy, oxocube and coquelin between them cover the RB spot. Although that's probably a bit overly offensive for half time..

    Seriously, it's like deja vu all over again. Dominate the ball, concede to a scrappy goal and then our 'amazing' striker gets sent off because he can't control his emotions.

    It's funny because Giroud should never start for us ever again after those moments of pure idiocy, but I bet he will start against Chelsea on Saturday.

    It's just such a pile of ****.

    On the plus side, Giroud will be fresh for Saturday.

    Or Debuchy or Ox, both have been poor.

    ****ing **** house first half. We couldn't string anything together and left ourselves open for the sucker punch.

    Agreed it's Arteta, debuchy or oxocube to make way. Despite oxo not looking particularly good we may need his pace to make up for the lost man.

    I still find it ludicrous how many times Giroud gets let off the hook by our manager.

    Cheats on his wife the night before Liverpool game, we get battered 5-1. Leans his head toward Onuoha against QPR when we're 1-0 up and in control of the match, gets sent off and could have cost us the game. Then he mouths off to the referee and then puts in a late challenge giving the referee no option but to send him off tonight.

    If we had genuine competition for his place, this wouldn't even be as big an issue. But no. Apparently what we have up front is good enough to compete.

    Oh and just in case anyone didn't realise, I absolutely detest Giroud. Honestly. Out of every Arsenal player, he is the least likeable by a distance, I truly cannot stand the bloke.

    Yeah, cos oxo is brilliant defensively...

    Walcott on for arteta / oxo for me.

    Thought giroud was unlucky and had been playing well.

    It's not like everyone bar the utterly ****ing deluded already knew that the likes of Arteta and Giroud were simply not good enough and would let us down. We needed to replace these duds and avenger just sat on his hand and did **** all. Anyway, it's all pointless, we would have got knocked out in the last 16 anyway.

    In the Valencia v Zenit game, Hulk has scored a bullet 30yrd goal

    You what? He missed two of our chances, made no real runs, and could not even hold the ball up. Apart from that he was playing well.

    Oxo is poor defensively, I say that all the time! Just trying to think of options with giroud sent off.

    Yeah, let's just blame the referee and not Giroud for acting like a complete twat in the first place.

    I don't think Giroud had been playing particularly well, but he was creating some chances. The red card was a bollocks decision though.

    Girouds first yellow he was completely ****ing stupid. But the ref was way too quick off the mark with that second yellow.
