We can look at it two ways.

We have lost away to arsenal or we have lost away to the team that were 5th off bottom without attempting to play a striker from the start...
 
Well I wonder if we had a striker on in the first half we might have got something out of this game.
 
Well trying to take a positive out of this, with Elmo, Catts and Larsson on the left and with no strikers we have not done too bad. The difference being our manager who handicapped our team from the start
 
Simple thing is though, we have given away far too many free kicks around the penalty area.

It was inevitable what would happen.
 
happy with 1-1 at HT, some good signs and we can be 10th tonight

But not so happy at full time?

Hypothetical possibilities aside, the facts are that we sit 4th from bottom level on points with the team 3rd off bottom and 1 point off the bottom, 6 points from 8 games.

Next up, away to Bolton, a real relegation battle of attrition. Perfect game for Bruce to select a battler in the mould of cattermole.
 
The difference was arse had a good striker on the pitch for 90 mins we had two apprentices on for a total of 30 mins.
 
We are in a Relegation battle. Anyone who thinks otherwise is living in cloud cuckoo land.

Bruce needs to be shown the door for any chance to turn the season around

Ive been saying that a long time mate. Hopefully we can get the remainder of the happy clappers onboard and get this ****ing idiot out of our club once and for all.

You were saying that when you were 1 nil down, then you disappeared when you were doing well and then you returned when we scored. Not exactly consistent are you?
 
<laugh> Keep crying, you bitter ****. You just hate it when Arsenal win. Whenever Arsenal win, you always try to look for our deficiencies.

Sunderland fought well, but van Persie showed the disparity in quality between the two sides. If Sunderland can perform like that invariably, then they have every chance of finishing in the top half of the table. We weren't at our best, and we still have a lot to sort out, especially defensively, but the aim of the game is to get three points and we did that today.

So just stop trying to put us down and let us enjoy the win.

Commiserations Sunderland.

Van Persie is the only top class player Arsenal have left. Your squad is dire and if it wasn't for Van Persie you'd be in the relegation zone.
