    (Arsenal) Worst defensive performance I've seen this season

    <doh> for spelling Arsenal wrong

    Agree mate Arsenal aren't much better either :emoticon-0100-smile, watched bits of the game today and thought Swansea were very good and would rather give Swansea the credit than put Arsenal down. Tough game next week for us

    <wah> agree Swansea played some decent stuff as they are a good passing side but they'll play better and not score 3, Arsenal were terrible defensively and if they continue to defend like that, they struggle to finish top 6, let alone 4th, just as well they've got Van Persie

    What impressed me about Swansea wasn't their skill, it was their determination.
    Closing down as a team and when they had the ball the passing and movement.
    Players off the ball were making space for themselves to receive the ball.
    Playing this sort of football takes a lot of effort and commitment.

    Hopefully the long journey up here, the cold weather, a resolute and angry Sunderland side looking to put right a defeat at the hands of chelsea and 40,000 sceaming mackems will be too much for them!

    I think it has to be said that we are better defensively than Arsenal at the moment too!

    Lets hope so mate, Swansea at home are a totally different team to Swansea away very hard to beat in Wales but, not that great outside Wales. Either way it should be a good game let's hope we have a new face in the front line to finish off those chances we are still missing.
