"I'm looking at the Arsenal fans, and I don't think anyone has clapped - and that's about right. They've been really, really poor and their system, and the way Arsene Wenger has set them up just isn't working. There's not an awful not happening out there, so it's difficult to commentate on to be honest, West Brom haven't got enough to break Arsenal down, and Arsenal aren't prepared to use their wing-backs to get some width into their game."
Steve Claridge, BBC Football Live commentary)

Ouch!

I fully expect Arsenal to come out and play a lot better than they did in that first half against the Baggies, and to take all 3 points.

However, that was as dire a first half of football as you will ever see this season!

Is this what Gooners really want to see? I doubt it.

Utterly dreadful.

Lucky for Arsenal they are playing a team managed by Alan Pardew. Any half decent manager, such as an Allardyce or a Hughes, and they'd be two behind by now.
 
Pundits on BBC Football are starting to chant "boring, boring Arsenal!"

Not good PR for the club.
 
Of course, we won't see Pixie until the end of the match, and then only if Arsenal do win.
 
"It's gone back to the pattern of the first half now, we had 15 minutes of decent football, but now it's gone back to how it was in the first half - dull. They spoiled us with that 15 minutes. But now, again, there's no space for either side to attack, the strikers are so isolated."
(Steve Claridge, BBC Football Live commentary)

Yep.
 
Alexis Sanchez gloved hands pointing where his team-mates should send the ball, like he is directing busy directing planes taxiing into land at Heathrow.
(BBC Football Live commentary)

I hate it when twats like Sanchez do that!

On the very few occasions when it comes off, arse-licking pundits say "What a great player he is! Telling the rest of the bozos on his team how to fcuking play football. What a bunch of cnuts all the other players are etc!"

However, for the 99% of times when it doesn't work you don't hear a peep out of them!

What they should be saying every time that he does that is, "Oi! Concentrate on playing your own game and being in the right place to receive the ball, you dozy fcuker!"
 
No real sense of urgency in getting the ball forwards after a WBA attack breaks down, they wait pissing around with the ball unitl WBA to pack the box with defenders.
