Dullest game I've seen in ages. Why play Ramsey when he's in the worst form of his life? Oh yeah, we have no alternatives :banghead: A creative midfielder's gotta be top of the shopping list in the summer...

I think its the same answer as why play RvP for 90 minutes of every match regardless of the fact he's shagged. Oh yeah....

And why the priority when we don't have a striker on the bench capable of playing at League Two level

:roll: Why not? A manager of 25 years experience & professional athletes paid £50k+ per week cant get themselves up for a crunch derby match cos they're still digesting a defeat from nearly a week ago? Eat some All Bran & do your job. Chelsea had a CL semi final less than 3 days ago & we're the ones still being affected by the Wigan game 2 days earlier? :banghead:
And the Chavs have another game to play against the worlds best team on tuesday.there was never a better time to play them

He'll be on about fatigue before the day is out too despite the fact that Sagna, Gibbs, Santos, and the Ox have hardly played, Koscielny has had two games out etc

If the one striker we've got is physically fucked and we have no midfield options then which prick is to blame for not having signed a striker despite sending the King of Denmark and the Queen of Mexico out on loan, and letting two top class midfielders leave, gambling on another's serious injury and playing Ramsey for 40 games

One man - the same useless waste of space leading the club into the Thursday Night Cup

Just got in. God that was dire, no passion or creativity on the pitch. As has been said, this was a great time to play the Chavs, but we couldn't be arsed.

On top of that had a load of officious stewarding, :x :x a few lads just up from me look like they will be losing their memberships. :cry:

Hate early kick offs, hate Terry, hate Cole, hate their mug fans. Drinking cider for breakfast in the Herbert Chapman not ideal.

Rosicky had a blinder, Ramsey enjoyed a return to form whilst Gibbs and Koscielny were excellent. Song dithered too much on the ball at times.

RVP again isolated alone up front, another striker or two still desperately needed if we are contend next season.

A bleak game but it is was probably more important not to lose than to win in terms of the league table. Next up a tricky away game at Stoke.

Really?? :shock: :shock: :banghead: I suppose that's the one positive you can take from the game if you're that way inclined. :roll: :banghead: Most of us see it as yet another in a long line of piss poor, lack-lustre performances and a missed opportunity to show that lessons have been learned from past mistakes. Alas, no matter how you try and paint it, the fact is it's the same old, same old. The team, some of the players and some would say the manager, are just not up to it!! :oops: :oops:

Oh, and if I ever hear Wenger complain about the players having fatigue, when he can't get his team to beat a Chelsea side (with a number of their top players rested) who have played 3 very big games in 6 days and yet still looked more dangerous and to have more legs than us in the second half, then I will sneak my way into one of his pre-match press conferences and ram my microphone right up his jacksy!! :evil: :evil: :banghead: :roll:

Proper turgid stuff today.

A central midfield of Ramsey and Song is mid table at best. Without Arteta there was nobody showing for the ball and Chelsea had to do very little in order to shut us out.

In the end I was just happy Torres was playing because with Drogba on the pitch that game would have had 1-0 Chelsea written all over it.

Wait for the handbrake or Chavs negative excuses to be wheeled out
Oh surprise, surprise Arsene uses the above excuses.

Add to those unlucky and nervous.

Change the flippin record Arsene and look in the mirror - you have built a sub-standard, pampered, overpaid squad and you have lost the magic touch. Crap tactics, crap motivation and crap substitutions.

To be fair considering he was struggling with an illness he deserves that sort of credit, he was still his lively (Recent) self and once he went off I knew it was over.

No one else put in anywhere near the effort he did from what I saw (in attack)
