    How good is Juan Mata. Why did we not sign this guy?

    15 mins in and the game is all but over. The Wenger apologists can blame the official all they want but we can't ignore the fact that Chelsea have completely outplayed us from the first minute. Our passing, movement, defending and overall cohesion are woeful and Wenger is still praising the quality of the squad? What a joke of a manager we have. We need some quality signings then maybe our high-risk, all out attack brand of football would yield better results. As it stands the quality of player that now regularly plays for the club is inadequate. Look at Chelsea: Hazard, Mata, Oscar are all players that can change a game. Who have we got? Cazorla and Jack. The rest are substandard. We need reinforcements, not in the summer, NOW!!! Spend some ****ing money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Some of our fans are just negative as a default.

    Anyway, **** them. I'm going to concentrate on the game. <ok>

    Any striker who misses a chance that easy should not be starting... but we have no choice but to play him because he is our only 'striker'.

    Yeah good point, however Southampton have determination and put it to good use, we don't as we don't have a leader on the park, ad after going two nil down heads will drop and we will continue to play absolute garbage

    We have had one chance at the start of the game and Giroud missed it - get off his back... It was hardly a gtolden chance missed by an average striker - plenty of strikers would have missed that. RVP used to do it all the time.

    Seriously, how ****ing deluded do some of you have to be to not see we need improvements right now? We're so average right now it's ****ing pathetic. If you really think this is just a ref issue then there is no hope. Yes, it's because of the referees we are sitting in 6th.

    Knew we'd lose this one but lets hope my prediction that spuds will beat Utd is wrong

    Our squad was already strong enough, we didn't need him.

    Plenty of strikers do miss chances like that... but you've missed my point completely. He is not good enough for Arsenal... but I digress.

    It wasnt a slip, it was a DIVE. He stepped over Szcz leg before going down.

    Anyone who thinks Giroud does enough to deserve his spot needs to watch him carefully. We should have had Theo up front and Podolski or Ox on the wing.

    Games not over, we tend to play better in the second half.

    I'm thinking Chelsea may have scored another by now if they'd started with a striker. They're beating us with 10 men, and thats really embarrassing.

    I don't think anyone is suggesting we are only losing because of the ref. I don't think anyone thinks we are playing well. But the ref clearly ****ed up.

    people like you are annoying - you point out anything and everything negative and completely dismiss any reasoning that could possibly make the nagtive seem less disastarous. Your a doom monger - simple.

    Exactly. He wasn't 'super quality' like Gervinho.
