Starting to actually get up for this game, wasn't feeling too confident but much better after hearing the team news.

Also came absolutely flapping for a cross that nearly cost us a goal.
Can't believe you didn't mention him reaching outside the box to catch the ball.... How he got away with that I'll never know!

That's easy to answer. The referee didn't see it

Thank fook O'Neill didn't start yesterday otherwise we could be suffering 'new manager' syndrome again!

With the right team we should win 2-0 but I agree with others, if Wenger starts with Denilshit, Bendtner or Arshavin then it's trouble. Can see it being a draw if they play.

How could i have forgot that! Was blind side in the stand and i could still see he was outside the box, massive let off that was. Lets hope he regain that confidence today that has made him look all the world a very very good goalkeeper!!
