Bit of a **** 1st half, not really created much, although we could have been 0-1 up but for Butland's brilliant save. Need to step it up a bit 2nd half and make sure we don't keep giving the ball away.
How long do we wait for Oxlade Chamberlain to come good? Honestly think that his level is midtable, like a Chelsea or Liverpool.
Oxo trying his hardest to give the ball away as often as possible towards the end of that half,vets is he playing at, his passing/decision making needs to improve. I'd maybe throw El Neny in at the deep end and put him on for oxo, or even Arteta/chambers in next to Flamini and Ramsey in the AM spot. It does my head in so much watching oxo play football, he clearly has talent but he insists on ****ing things up!
They're booing because Ramsay rejected Shawcross's apology, not because Ramsay had his leg broken. Still twattish, but not as twattish.
OX has 20 minutes to do something, if he continues this, I'd play Ramsey as our number 10, and put on El Neny to play deep. Think we will do more with Ramsey being given free reign to do his thing and just run up.
Our defense have dealt with Stoke well so far in general, but our midfield is lacking creativity with no Ozil or Cazorla.
He also went to visit him after his op and was refused. However, as a Stoke fan I think it's pretty twatish to boo the guy.
Do short corners ever come off for us?? It makes no sense why we always do a short corner after a standard one.
Stoke lucky not to concede a penalty there. Definite holding back on Walcott, although the foul was probably committed initially outside the box. Nothing given whatsoever
all referees are the same ****.. intentional bottlers...they actually manage to screw both teams in a match
