It's only half time, still plenty of time to turn it around and go for the win.
That is true but even if we somehow scrape past Sunderland (no disrespect) does this really look like a title challenging side? I'm tried of this "mental strength" arsenal. I'm tired of these injuries and this being the excuse of coming so close and yet so far.

I accept that neither we or any other PL team will come close to the Champions League in years. I accept we've had to sell our star players over the season to funs the stadium. And for Wenger to still keep us in top 4 is nothing short of amazing.

Now what's the excuse?

There's NO excuse. Constantly bottling, leaving mediocre players in the squad and not figuring out our perpetual injury problems is a disgrace. The weakest and most winnable league in years and yet Leicester at this point seem more likely to win it than Arsenal.

Gosh, how I regret the fact that we were not in a position to get Klopp.
 
Great corner by Ozil, unlucky Giroud to have his header cleared off the line. Good play by Ramsey too.
 
Good game from Campbell, he is trying really hard to take this opportunity to earn his place in the squad. Pleased for him to get another goal.
 
Good game lads, regardless of the result. You will be 3rd or 4th again this season. Under big Sam we have improved and we'll be fine this season <ok>
