    It was rather sly. Lucky not to get booked although the decision to give him a free kick was correct.

    Apparently carrolls earlier foul wiped out all of Gabriel's transgressions!

    Gabriel needs to come off, Wenger needs to get him the **** off now.

    You are controlling this and look the better team...apart from Gabriel who is doing his best to give this game away!

    I can't believe Gabriel and Monreal are still on the pitch!

    Couldn't agree more. Get Chambers on and we should see some more goals.

    Gabriel, worst player on the pitch by far.

    He was taller and and heavier than Koscielny.

    Also when judging these things you don't pick an exception you look at the whole picture. Very few teams have two shorter defenders both under 80kgs. Particularly in the Premierleague.

    Agree. Mertesacker may be slow but he's better in the air and his positioning is vastly superior.

    Sanchez has to shoot there. Ridiculous when players of that calibre don't trust their weaker foot.

    great game of football, a fair result, but overall 2 points dropped, those tiny minute chances of the title are all but over. Unfortunately we just don't have what it takes.

    Wenger showing He's tactically inept once again. He had one job to do and it cost us.

    It's going to be such a kick to the balls when Leicester win this, really shows how much we have underachieved in the last few years, overall very disappointed. Club needs to sort itself out.

    A fair result? Maybe if you're a gooner, the ref robbed West Ham blind, again. should the score have been 4-2, or 5-2?

    Also top two is also slipping away, and while there's little difference between finishing second or third, I'd much rather finish above Spurs than beneath them. And not be looking over my shoulder to 4th as well...

    Disappointing, like most of the season...

    Have to say I think Wengers substitutions were all wrong.
    His team selection was poor.

    Still see this as two points dropped.
