    When we beat West Brom with dodgy penalties you said it didnt matter because we were the better team. Chelsea deserve to be 2-0 up

    Ugh!! Coquelin is a ****ing replica of Denilson! He doesn't tackle.

    The guy is just so easily bipassed.

    @I am Gooner - Pod or oxo couldnt play as they are ill - if your gonna slate the club or manager for making poor decisions about team selection make sure your niot talking out ur arse!

    @SignDa Ting - no i didn't miss your point, not at all and in my previous reply i noted your point. I just think it's complete stupididty and devoid of logic to blame a striker for being 2-0 down. I understand the whole "if we are 1-0 up its a different game dynamic" but at 15mins in and 2-0 down i think it's ****ign ridiculous to say thats down to the lone striker.

    I'm thinking we make 3 subs at half time.

    Jenkinson on for Sagna
    Ramsey on for Diaby
    Arshavin on for Coquelin, and drop Jack deeper.

    When we beat WBA I said we were lucky to get that and when people were going on about having a good run I said it was because of abad decisions. Cheslea are by far the better team today but it doesnt change the fact that both their goals came from wrong decisions. It doesnt matter where the team stop the opponents scoring as long as they do, conceding only as a result of a poor ref is hard to swallow

    Sagna just isn't the same player any more, no positional awareness can't cross, all he seems I be able to do is run

    Sagna is having more bad game than good these days. Such a shame used to be soo reliable.

    Sagna has lost a bit of pace which he used previously to make up that extra bit of ground when out of position. Seems he is struggling to do this now - it's a shame he is heading towards the end of his career.

    Will you not admit that we have been very poor thus far? Or are you going to put everything down on the ref.

    Jesus, the way we play is so embarrassingly predictable. One player runs down the wing, cuts in, our wing back runs on the overlap,receives the ball, gets closed down, cuts in, does a ****e cross and the other team's defence mops up. Rinse, repeat.

    We were interested in him the season Fabregas and Nasri left. But you're right, our squad was strong enough <laugh> He wanted to come too but it was actually because Wenger didn't pay his 18.5m buyout clause. Obviously felt he wasn't worth it.

    I'm sorry bit even I you take the referrer debate out of the equation, can anyone honestly say, given how poor we have been that we wouldn't have conceded anyway? And it's not like Chelsea are a little bit better, they are all over us at the moment

    A shame if Sagna is finished at Arsenal but i dont think Jenkinson is ready to take over full time yet
