Giroud doing his best to stop Wenger signing a striker.

Ramsey looking very very sharp, great to see.

Sagna's a quality CB.

Thankfully Walcott isn't though. Every decision he has made in the final third has been wrong in this game

Love watching Rosicky playing this well also.

Unfortunately, a biproduct of Sagna playing well is Jenko playing at RB. Still completely unsure on his future as a first choice RB.

I heard a rumour that Theo took 15 minutes to put his boots on before the game because he couldn't decide which one to put on which foot!

Looking forward to seeing Zelalem in the 2nd half.

Fuck this match and Wenger's old Japanese team. This match is just more proof that Arsenal is nothing but an extension of Wenger's huge ego and eccentric socialistic football experiment.

I'm enjoying watching our new "Wenger-approved" manager from 2017 onwards, Dragan Stojkovic in action.

This actually worries me, if he continues to put shed loads past no-marks then Wanger may well put his faith in him and decide not to recruit one of the 9000 strikers we've been linked with.

I do hope Giroud does well for us but we surely have to strengthen our striking options as a matter of priority.

Medium rare with a dash of false hope and a side helping of French-African ligue 2 wingers. And I expect to be charged handsomely for it.

I can do that. I'll do you a meal deal with a plastic beaker of luke warm carbonated piss for £12 if you like

I hope Wally is getting this display out of the way in pre-season because he has been utterly cock so far

Proof from Theo that ANY low cross that ever found an Arsenal player to score and he runs off like he has just performed an amazing assists is simply a hit and hope job.

4 v 1 - shocking.
