He was better than Cazorla and Arteta. He was trying to be inventive with the ball but had no outlet.
Im sure Arsene will say we were unlucky . again . If that tw@t Gervinho plays again in an arsenal shirt , wenger should not be sacked , he should be shot. What a TOTAL waster . sell him for a fiver .
You guys have really missed a key point in your analysis. Cazorla and Wilshere looked up for it in the first half, but had only Walcott to link with through the middle. Their defense wasn't ****. Do the math. Everything went through the right side and hopeless crosses to the area. If we started with Giroud we would have had a decent chance, by the time he came on JW and Cazorla were depleted.
Not an over-reaction at all, today's performance simply confirms this team is still in need of major improvements. We were lucky against West Brom and Wigan, we needed three lucky penalties to get the points in those games. I doubt the majority of Arsenal fans looked at our recent winning streak and went wow this team is finally back, in most of those games there were still major problems from this team.
So? Still had a poor agme? Should have just subbed out the entire midfield at half time and brought in Coq (he actually knows how to tackle), Rosicky (WHY DID HE NOT PLAY), and Ramsey
Of course we still need improvements but the games we won we deserved to win. Penalties count as goals too.
We should have started with Giroud (We had 3 FRAKING AMAZING CORSSES in the 1st half that Giroud would no doubt have buried)
Penalties count as goals, but the penalties were very lucky ones, and they papered over the cracks. We even got lucky today, as Southampton had a PERFECT goal ruled out, if you think that was a foul, then you're lying to yourself. We should have lost this game today.
Gervinho is just comical and predictable. The way he tripped over his own shadow was just classic Gervinho. Walcott was not great today, but the service from the midfield was pants and if it was not for that quality ball he put in, we would have come away with nothing.
OXO clearly fouled the player before he got the penalty, lol please don't tell me you think Southampton's goal today was a foul, but OXO's challenge VS West Brom was not?
This is still a very very weak Arsenal squad that is in some BAD NEED of new quality players. Probably the under statement of the season,problem is there is no one at AFC that is capable of putting it right,must go down as one of the worst performances we have had.
because he could play fifty games and never do a damn thing. Walcott has moments of brilliance . I have never seen even one , ever , from the forehead . Totally ineffective. I would rather he brought Arshavin on as a sub , at least he might do something. all we can ever expect from Gervinho is a whole bunch of nothing.
