Oxo needs to do more. He's being given these opportunities whilst Theo is out and he's not taking them.
Half-Time, been a crcking game though we need to step it up. SW10 and Gervihno to kill Villa in the 2nd half
I'll take 0-0 at half time. Not bad considering we only have 9 men on the pitch (Ramsey and Ox don't count as football players)
He's done okay, given that Villa have pressed us into our own half and we've not had much attacking play. I can't see Villa keeping up this level of pressing, but we need to make sure that we don't sit too deep. We're playing the ball out of DF into MF and we're still in our own half. I think there should be a bit more space for us as this game wears on
Bad game. Nobody is really clicking. We have two chances to speak of - Kos' chance and Ramsey's shot. A draw is about right at the moment.
Giroud has been our best player so far - if something happens i'd wager on him being the one to do it! Oxocube needs to do more or get off the pitch for Arshavin. Arshavin would tear Villa's back line apart.
Vermaelen and Sagna put in much better crosses in our last game. Jenkinson and Gibbs need to put better balls into the box.
Don't see all the Ramsey hate. He's been one of our better players. Arteta should be getting more stick
Arsenal Fans: 10/10 - Making more noise. Villa Fans: 0/10 - Booing their disallowed goal? Really? Idiots. Jenks has been poor, but not sure we can blame him after his time out. Mertesacker an absolute rock, what a saving tackle! Gibbs a bit too adventurous, but not too bad. Ramsey makes it like we're playing with 10 men. Oxo needs to get involved more, but he's looked dangerous. Giroud with some lovely touches, trying to make things happen. Cazorla under par. We're playing wing-backs, and that needs to change. I don't know why Wenger changed his tactics for this game, but it's not working. Bring on Jack and Gerv for Ramsey and Pod. Overall, not a bad half. I expect us to do better in the second. My 0-1 predo looking good!
