So Zlatan missed out yesterday on the double, from their team and our virtual team..

Yeah that's what Wenger said too but its just one of those meaningless football cliches. One that desperately tries to convince ourselves and others that we have improved.

We had one moment in the game. That isnt an improvement on previous visits to Old Trafford, it's worse. It was Man United lack of ruthlessness that got us a point, not our own progression.

Would go so far as to say it most the most appalling embarrassing gutless performance by any Arsenal side that i have ever seen

And another opportunity missed where a win would have put us top. I still have no admiration for this Arsenal team and I just cannot respect them at all.

"Give Ramsey a break because he is being played out of position on the left, he has been asked to do a job".

Really and why is that??? Because Wenger crowbars him in wherever he can fit him & Ramsey doesn't care because he roams all over the field and does what he pleases anyway. Everything except track back and help the F/B....Monreal, who had a torrid afternoon. Again!! It's like Walcott when he hung Jenkinson out to dry a few years back. Besides not tracking back Ramsey was totally crap at everything else he did as well. Cannot believe he is being defended!!

This was absolutely gutless. Had to go some way to match last year's shower of shite but we managed it. Tactically Wenger is so out of his depth it's unbelievable. So predictable that we sit back creating nothing just waiting to go behind.

Chamberlain has been gash for a good while but was crying out for him to come on ages before he did because unlike any of our starters he was capable of beating a man.

Fucking sweet to rob something off those bastards mind.

Awful. Just awful. Insipid, gutless, negative, technically poor, useless, wasteful, uninspired.... and that's just Ramsey! :banghead: :roll:

Many things in that match pissed me off; Herrera diving, Valencia diving, Darmian not getting sent off for at least 3 or 4 bookables, nearly all of our players going missing, Sanchez being in headless-chicken mode running around but achieving fuck all, Ozil showing that whilst he is our best player he ain't a scrapper and if things aren't going well he just loses interest, Elneny afraid to do anything but his 5-yard Denilson impression, Nacho skinned continuously (of course being left constantly exposed by Messi-Lite Ramsey doesn't help), sister-in-law-molester Giggity Giggs insisting it was a penno when everyone else all agreed no it was a dive (Sounness even pointing out that Valencia elbowed Nacho before the dive), Wenger sitting on his hands until we went one-nil down and then... sitting on his hands until the 72nd minute substitution alarm went off in his otherwise empty head, Mr Messi-Lite Ramsey trying a Cruyff Turn and tripping over his own feet the fucking idiot, Ramsey continuously pissing away possession under little or no pressure, Ramsey offering zero support to his full back, Ramsey slowing every attack down by taking 4 or 5 touch's, Ramsey standing there with both arms out wide insisting he get the ball, and just Ramsey in general. :x :roll:

Only highlights were; the face on Moron-hio when we equalised, the face on the sister-in-law-molester after the game, some decent saves from Cech, a great cameo from the Ox just doing what an attacking winger/FB should do - drop the shoulder, beat your man, whip in a cross, and Giroud's imperious header. Someone up above blamed Rojo and Jones for failing to stop him which is total bullshit - Giroud did what a striker should do, arrive late and out climb the CH's. He absolutely beasted them. FFS credit where credit is due. :roll:

So we are back to where we always are fighting for that top 4 spot again.
On paper 2 draws is not the end of the world but what the last 2 games have shown is that we really should have been beaten in both, no statement of intent and a feeling of we've seen it all before. So yeah, we'll be thereabouts by beating the Hulls and Sunderlands of this world but play the top sides and we are shown up time and again. And to top that do we really see many points from our 3 away games in December?

People blame Ramsey but he is being played out of position all the time. How long will Sanchez hang around? Why do people praise Ozil so much? Was he playing Saturday?
The common theme in everything this team does is Wenger. The squad is decent but is capable of much more under a better manager so we can only hope that if we fail again, he may decide his time is up.

The victims are NOT title challengers - the meeja are in wankathon mode about them at the mo, but they are not all that and as soon as coutinho gets worn down carrying those c.unts, they will fall apart 8)
