As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
"Arsenal have made more errors leading to goals (11) and scored the most own goals (5) of any team in the Premier League this season."
Shocking numbers....
Own goals off the top of my head
-Kosc own goals vs blackburn and lpool
-Miquel own goal vs lpool
-Song own goal vs bburn
-Vermaelan own goal vs fulham
It seems as if every goal we allow it's some shocking or frustrating error like Verm yesterday. Or giving away free kicks in scoring position (bburn and sunderland at home). Or even something like Mert getting injured while not in danger, if not that someone is diving to win pks against us.

Yes, but I mean the angering or embarrassing ones. It's one thing if a team uses superior skill to get a goal instead of say capitalizing on an error. The Ben Arfa goal against us was a normal one, I'd say. The 2 games before that we had 2 own goals.
