    The fuq does Myiachi have to do to play for Wigan? FFS we should just recall him if the ****s won't play him.

    Ramsey offers nothing going forward except slowing down our attacks

    He's made a couple good link ups with Sagna and Wilshere but go ahead and whine.

    Though I'd probably bring on Theo anyway for Ramsey. We need more pace.

    Think you've caught QPR at a bad time like we did playing them last week. They're a better team when Hoillett, Taraabt and Granero are playing.

    What is with the Santos bashing? yes last game he was crap but he has been fine today...

    He lost the ball once but won it back - other than that he has been fine defensively. Attacking he has had one of our few shots on target, set up by a great little bit of footwork to bring the ball inside and open the angle after a slightly under hit pass by wilshere.

    I don't get why critisism follows on from a previous game - Santos hasn't been poor today so not sure what the abuse is about.

    On another note - I'm really pleased to see Sagna and Wilshere back in the team - they are two top class players we now have back in the mix.

    Sagna and Wilshere have improved our team substantially.
    Wilshere is MOTM so far, even at 80% fitness.
    Cazorla is a little under-par today.
    Ramsey started of well, but his game has severe limitations. His only position is as a central attacking midfielder, and he's not good enough to hold that position in a top team like Arsenal.
    The most disappointing player (again) is Podolski. Prime example was when he gave the ball to Santos, and then just ambled into the forward line without even looking for a return pass. I've said before that I like Pod, but his performances for us recently have been terrible.

    Take off Ramsey, bring on Gerv to play on the wing where he belongs. Better still, bring on Gnabry if he's available.

    Also i agree about Ryo - if he isn't gonna get game time at Wiagn - where tbh he could make a difference for them. Then recall him. Whilst Walcott and Oxocube have been out it would of been good to have another pacey winger to pin teams back. Unfortunatly playing Podolski and Ramsey as oru wide players we dont break with pace. So Ryo could probably have got some game time with us..... It's been a really **** loan move so far.

    All the QPR attacks are coming down their right, our left. Santos' positioning has again been awful.

    you are clearly blind, did you miss him lunging in to make a tackle again just like the last match .

    Going to ground to make the tackle is HIGHLY dangerous if you dont get it right , the attacker is off and running.

    But he has made the tackles. That's one of his strengths. If he makes the tackles then what is the problem, if he doesn't make it then complain.

    Your moanign that he went for a tackle and if he hadn't made it, it would have been bad... but he did make the tackle.... So basicaly it was a good challenge...

    and @kyle - they obviously watched our last game and are trying to target Santos - it hasn't worked.

    Santos is a very good player.




    Just not a great leftback.

    They have very clearly tryed to target Santos, as they watched our last game and thought that is our weakness. So they have purposely tried to go down that side. That doesn't mean Santos is playing poorly and thats why the attacks are comming there - it means they are choosing to go that side.

    ANd so far it isn't working - Santos has kept pace with there players, he hasn't let any crosses come in - he has either made the challenge or seen the player to the line.

    So far he has only lsot the ball once and then won it back - he hasn't played poorly by any stretch of the word.

    he made a similar tackle in the last game and DIDNT make it .

    A good defender does NOT lunge in and leave himself on the ground while the attacker steps over him and runs off.

    He is a POOR defender , he is very often MILES out of position .

    But thats fine , just hope they dont score down that side or he will make you look a trifle silly. <ok>

    And against Norwch he was our best player on the pitch (or possibly arteta).

    I hate all this player bashing our fans seem to do - a player has a poor performance and thats it - they are ****, they cant play, etc etc... Anything good they have done is forgotten and anything good they then do is ignored...
