Why did Sanchez take it? Cazorla has scored 4/5, when has Sanchez ever taken one for Arsenal? They should know before they go on the pitch who will take penalties and it should be Cazorla. Now instead of being 1-0 up with QPR having to come out it's 0-0 and has dented Sanchez confidence. Pathetic.
Good team goal. Atrocious from Traore, no wonder Arsenal let him go. Good to get Sanchez some confidence back.
He's a fighter, other of our players can learn from him...Instead of sulking and putting his head down after that atrocious penalty, he sticks to his game and scores.
One of our best first halves this season. Completely neutralized QPR. Just need to kill this off and we have the personnel on the pitch and on the bench to do so. Also Rosicky in our midfield is such a good thing to see.
Tbf if you can't do that against QPR then you really shouldn't be a professional footballer. Now if that is a lesson to your other players then my god you really have got problems. The truth is it's not a lesson at all bcos it IS QPR, and Arsenal were always going to win this.
QPR or whoever, it IS a lesson, keep your head up and keep going and then score. That's a proper example, no sulking or feeling sorry for yourself, dust yourself off, keep your game.
Where is everyone? It's a ghost town on here. Hope to see Pod, Coquelin & Theo for Giroud, Sanchez & Cazorla.
Fair enough but I don't think this will be a test for any of the arsenal players to learn from tbh. Agree though, Sanchez's mental strength is a cut above your other players.

Giroud what a ****ing idiot, he always has to do something to make you dislike him, what a **** tard.
And now we're down a striker for 3 games coming up in quick succession, what a ****ing idiot. See Treble? QPR or no QPR, some of these players ARE DUMB that need learning.
Absolute disgrace to headbutt there. He's let the team down, badly. Busiest time of the year, injury depleted squad and your no1 striker does that. Pathetic. The player went down so easy but if you put your head in you're going to get sent off. Tough 35mins now to see through. Giroud & Sanchez should both be fined - Sanchez for taking the penalty against team orders & Giroud for the red card. Not a good day for Arsenal. Indiscipline is costing the team - in personnel and in defence.
