    If we aren't going to get those kind of decisions we have no chance today

    Though we once had RVP sent off for kicking the ball so I can't say I'm surprised when ref decisions don't go our way against Barca lol

    If we can keep it in there half they look vulnerable, problem is on the counter they look lethal

    Elneny should have taken the shot first time there. Just saw the replay definite pen.

    Another one goes begging for Sanchez, but we keep creating chances ...

    We've created more this half than I expected to in the whole game. We need to put a chance away!

    Getting progressively more annoyed that we didn't get the penalty lol

    Typical Arsenal performance, a mistake costs us a goal, we create chances, fail to bury a single one, the Wengerites come out of their holes saying how good we're playing and putting in a performance of pride, and can use this as a springboard, and repeat.

    Should really have scored in this half. If not from open play then at least from the spot, the ref completely bottled that.

    Erm, it was not a penalty, what are you watching? Iwobi tripped over his own feet, quit jumping to conspiracies.

    If it stays like this until full time, and we keep this level, I guarantee you would be all positive and upping it. Only Wengerites can find continued pride from continued failure, which is what this is so far. Nice tippy tappy football with chances against a Barca side 3-0 up and not really trying. yay!

    Simple really our conversion rate to chances created is abysmal.

    I am watching the game where Mascherano clipped him before he tripped.
