    Good, No he's ineffective. When he runs past two players then passes straight to the opposition it doesnt really help us.

    Didn't see too much of that today, tbh. However it felt like a flat performance all round. Not what I was hoping for.

    Not a great performance and we won in fortuitous circumstances, but after the last two devasting defeats, we just needed to get a win and we have.

    We need to savour the moments that Alexis gives us for the rest of the season because he's an outstanding player, but I still think he's going to leave in the Summer.

    Other than that, I'm not really sure what else there is to say. We've not got much to play for in the league, to be honest.

    Onto Bayern we go...this should be fun...

    If you're happy to win in such circumstances...
    Honestly, I don't know what to say you.

    Enjoy your three points <laugh>

    My mistake, you didn't actually say that. But you certainly implied it didn't you. No question mark needed.

    Errr no. No I didn't. I literally said it wasn't a great performance and we won in fortuitous circumstances right at the beginning.

    A goal with the hand intentionally or not is NOT a goal ffs, stop trying to justify it

    Anywhere else on the pitch it's not hand ball but clearly when it results in a goal it's a free kick, come on people common sense

    And aren't you supposed to get an automatic red if you're the last man and you bring a player down? Has someone changed the rules without telling us?

    Nobody had heard of this apparent 'rule' before today.

    Goals are going in of defenders and forwards arms ALL the time. Think about all the deflections that go in off the defender. If its not a goal when it touches an arm intentionally or not - this rule must be applied to defending players also - therefore you could probably wipe off at least 10 Premierleague goals last Season.

    There's only an outcry because its Arsenal.

    So if a striker smashes a ball at 80mph at a defender in the box from 5 yards away- and it briefly touches his arm whilst being deflected in. It's not a goal?.. REALLY?

    Just goes to show the referee's are full of ****.

    Even if it wasn't a legitimate goal, which I think it was because Sanchez couldn't move out of the way for the ricochet, it's not our fault the officials didn't spot it.

    Didn't you predict a 4-1 away win, by the way?
    How's that working out for you? :)
