How much longer are the lapses of concentration going to cost us? How much longer can we go on not winning games against the stronger sides?

garbage performance, standard from him.

Stupid defensive errors, a theme this season. Can we get back to the basics now and try and be solid.

We were on top for large parts of that game and still could have conceded 6, that's the fighting thing. A total cluster fuck for the goal. First the zonal marking debacle followed by Scez flying around like a clown when Flamini would have easily headed the ball away. Farce.

2-2 fair result, we were holding on a bit at the end.

Debuchy looks like a busted ankle to me. Wenger's not acting in the transfer market for a defender could cost us again. Can we get Jenkinson back from West Ham. Also we lack genuine pace at the back Merts and Monreal are liabilities.

Should Szczesny have done better for the goal?

Possibly a tad harsh.

Here here, wanted Ox on for Ozil as soon as we went 2-1 up, Ox is stronger, will defend better and would have provided us with some more pace as opposed to Ozil's tired legs.

A strange performance in many ways, as we looked so good, in short spells but still so open against City's attacks.

Should have seen the game out but in the end thankful not to lose,

Serious concerns about our lack of defenders, as if that wasn't obvious before, even a blind man could see it.

good point, we were a bit unlucky imho.

sanchez was exceptional - never stops running at people, he's twisty and turny, must be a bugger to mark. 3 in 6 games now.

im split between him and Jack for MOTM - jack did everything right today, stayed further up, was direct and stayed on his feet.

two wonderful goals. danny looked quick and strong. i wish that had gone in.

Chambers when he came on was excellent. TV said debuchy was probably a break sadly. he needed oxygen. :? sad for him but chambers will get a run now.

We had all 11 players in the penalty box for that corner and still a goal was scored from a free header. Zonal marking my bollocks. :roll:

2 goals conceded,one down to zonal marking and the other down to good old fashioned tracking your man.

There was an interview this morning with Johan Cruyff in the paper and he was talking about teams full of wonderful attackers and said "The guy will say I scored 2 wonderful goals but the defenders let in 3! "

That sums up the look on Sanchez face at full time. Nothing more to say.

Enjoy the ranting boys,can't be ar**d.

A nice afternoon away from the Arsenal and tactics and defending and :blah: :blah: :blah:

thought Jack, Alexis, Shez and Kos were great. Welbeck and Ramsey were okay. Ozil was absolutely pathetic and should have been subbed at 55 mins.

What the fuck does Rosicky have to do to get a game.

Until we get rid of Wenger, this will happen again and again and again. Don't tell me Bouldy doesn'r know how to teach, train and organise our defenders into a cohesive well drilled unit!

Wenger won't let him do it.

Wenger OUT! :evil:

As someone said - with Debuchy injured - and it looks Not Good...We have Chambers to come in at RB - but what happens if/when Kos or BFG get injured or need a rest? :roll: :banghead:
