GET IN. FUCKING BRILLIANT.

That is what we are capable of, if they are pressing hard high up the pitch we are good enough to zip three or four passes around and one bit of skill like from Cazorla sees us in.

Great finish.

Get in :barscarf:

Great run form Santi to find Ozil with the finish.

This could be a very very good game as Everton will have to come at us all guns blazing.

Fantastic run from Caz - where's that been for the last 4 months ?

Great to see TV back.

I'm a bit worried about them targeting Gibbs though..

Fucking brilliant ! - come on Arsenal !

Good to see Ox run and hit one. Shame it was blocked.

One decent turn and shot early on but has been pretty anonymous other than that.

Why does our defence never pick up runners coming through ?

1-1 cracking game so far.

Fucking shit. Why the fuck doesn't Gibbs look to drop back in after the ball is shifted into the centre of the pitch with Arteta? Fucking luxury.

And fucking shit from Flamini too. If he hadn't brainlessly picked up a yellow by making two blatant fouls that didn't even slow opposition attacks down he would have been able to make a tackle on the halfway line and either win the ball or stop a genuinely dangerous counter-attack. The commentators have got a hard-on over Barkley's run but he's not skinned one player, awful defending.

Haven't seen a proper replay of the tracking (or lack of it) but our defenders had long enough to get back, there were two fuckers queueing up to tap it in.

We'd been playing really well since the goal but that - full-backs bombing forward with no regard for what might happen if we lose the ball, opposition players running miles without challenge and ultimately being carved open from a position of safety with relative ease - is a throwback to the Arsenal of 2009-2012. Whole dynamic of the game has changed now.
