    One of the most grossly over-rated players of the last couple decades mate.

    I'm unsurprised at the score so far, the only reason Man U are doing well is because teams have given them far too much respect.

    What a half of football. We've cut through them like a hot knife through butter on the counter attack. Our passing has been really good, barely any stray passes.

    We've been good defensively in general but had a couple of shaky moments late on in the half.

    Couldn't have asked for a better first half against Utd, we could of been 5-0 up.

    3-0 now let's make sure we see it out and take the 3 points. It's currently a big enough GD to jump Utd in the table too.

    Who says Ozil can't do it in big games? An assist and a goal within 8'minutes.

    Cazorla and Ramsey have been solid but Walcott, Sanchez and for me the main man Ozil have been absolutely on fire, the interchange of movement, passing,setting each other up, scoring... Fantastic.

    He couldn't do anything for two of those goals. Rooney is the weakest link in your chain.

    Hoof ball to Felleini

    In other news, Kane scored, but the wrong goal

    so, back to 0

    Fair play to the Arsenal they are teaching United a lesson but does this reduce the taint of the shameful surrendering at Stamford bridge ?

    We've been creating so many chances in games and not taking them so somebody was going to be on the end of a tanking sooner or later. Not in my wildest dreams did I think it would be today though!

    This is like the inverse of a Ferguson led United vs Arsenal. How many times have we been counter-attacked by them in the past?! Feels so good to play them at their own game. If I was a United fan I would be concerned by how slow they are. They don't look urgent or concerned in any way, dwindling on the ball and getting the run around from Cazorla who has been exceptional.

    More of the same please guys, don't assume that this game is over because Van Gaal is surely going to get them fired up at the break.

    We're not pressing them from the front like we were in the first half. Can't let Carrick and Schweinsteiger settle into the game.

    We need to kill them off. Not comfortable at 3-0.

    I knew we wouldn't keep up the tempo from the first half but that's no excuse for poor defending.

    I hope Sanchez isn't seriously injured. Seems like a groin strain.

    Could be feigning it to avoid international duty. That definitely doesn't seem like Sanchez though.

    I had a feeling that this would happen. They were due for a beating and Arsenal dully obliged. Nice play

    Great win. Should've been 5 or 6.
