    Arsenal just need to compose themselves...although it looks bad, they are only 1 down. On another day it could have been 5-2.

    Wow, we are making a guy that disappeared for ages with injuries look untouchable at the moment. There is no leadership at the back or anywhere else.

    "They can't handle him. It's a magnificent decision by Bilic to change Tomkins and put Antonio at right back. Antonio can now get forward, Emenike will drift inside. He's taken on Monreal and stood up a beautiful cross to the far post and Andy Carroll does what he does best.

    "It's great to see a player do that in the modern game because there's not many of them left. He has buried the header into the Arsenal net and Arsenal look shell-shocked."

    Arsene, make an fing change!

    Surprised Giroud wasn't brought on too...would have swapped him for Iobi (excuse spelling)

    Na. Cannavaro was usually paired with the likes of Nesta (6'4), Chiellini (6'3) etc..

    Some people like to pretend football is somehow the only sport where size/power and athleticism don't count. But it does.

    **** happens, but what I can't understand is why we don't just get on with it and fight, instead our heads drop, we feel sorry for ourselves, and mope around. There is so much time to turn this around, but we wasted 10 minutes now feeling sorry for ourselves.

    A big difference is the player reactions to the ref...the west ham players have just got on with things after a decision goes against them whereas arsenal players are getting angry at everything like they are being hard done by.
    The Substitution of ramsey has helped compose arsenal themselves
