We needed those points but that was hard work. One thing that really annoys me though is how Ramsey waste possession with back heels, Cruyff turns that go wrong, elaborate passes etc. His decision making is putting not only him, but the rest of the team under pressure. Arteta needs to take him under his wing and show him how to keep it simple! Anyway, 3 points and another RVP goal. It'll do!
GREAT WEEK! Ahhh very good... 3 points behind spurs (though they have game in hand) we're catching up.
I think the RVP record was mind ****ing the team to a greater extent than it should. Now that it's a new year and the chase is over, we will get back to winning by 3 or 4 soon enough
Right- Walcott is now a serious worry........ Gervinho is terrific until he gets to the box. Ramsey should be dropped - he is NOT a ****ing magician - stop wasting good attacks you prick! Song has no idea about a through ball pass. Arteta is holding the midfield together - without him we'd be overrun.
Opportunity missed I'd say. We got the ball into the right areas often enough, but that SWP backpass cost us dear. Arsenal created plenty more goal scoring opportunities though, although I have to say that I wasn't particularly convinced by Walcott and Arshavin today.
Just a flying visit from me, busy with NYE setting up. Only just seen the results 1-0 to the Arsenal, take that every time. Spuds - starting to chuck away points Utd beaten at home by Blackburn Chelsea battered by Villa at the bridge Arsenal in the top 4 and chasing the coat -tails of the spuds HAPPY NEW YEAR
Good win today Thought Van Persie was class. Walcott wasn't at the races. Arshavin was ###t (i hope he comes no where near QPR). Song played well. WE really had nothing up front and you should have scored more. Stadium/facilities are great but the atmospher was shocking, 60K and you can hear the players. A bit American style facilities but i guess thats the future. Best chant was the 'Gervino head' chant. Classic by the Rangers but nearly shut us up if he scored. Anyway best of luck with 3rd place.
Walcott will NEVER be good enough played out wide - out wide he is piss poor. I want to see him played in his proper position as a striker. Song is pap, I don't rate him at all and I never have. He is technical ****e, just a big oaf. So what that he has assists, who wouldn't with RVP ahead ahead of them !!!
Song is one of the best DMs in the PL A DM dosn't necessarily have to have good technical skills so yeah STFU
