People criticising the earlier comments about the teams lack of discipline etc., should be aware that these comments probably stem from girouds sending off during the week - several posters commented after the Zagreb game that girouds dismissal suggested a lack of discipline in the team, and when you get two more red cards in the next game then it isn't a big stretch to question the team's lack of control

I've been thinking more than a striker, more than another CDM or CB we really need a born leader on the pitch to get the team working together and keep them under control when it gets tough.

All 3 sendings off this week were needless and might have been avoided by someone with a bit of leadership getting players in hand and getting them focussed and calmed down on the pitch, I like to blame Wenger for a lot of things but the red cards can only be his fault in a roundabout way, players have to take some responsibility and this is one of those times.

After watching MOTD,s very inconclusive coverage of Gabrials sending off I have come to the conclusion that Costa is a despicable crying f**king c**t and that if we were going to receive a red then it's only a pity we didn't break his jaw , the prick, also Dean is a joke of a ref, somebody chining that dick would not have gone amiss either.

Murphy is a prick as well, at least Shearer thought Costa was lucky too stay on. The scratches on Gabriels neck WTF?? Pity Costa cant be punished retrospective. Dean is a fucking disgrace!

One final word from me on Costa:

If the FA doesn’t retrospectively ban the cheating little *word censored* then I’m fucking done with football. I assume they will, seeing as Mike Dean miraculously managed to miss at least three red-card offences from him. Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if all these incidents find their way into his match report but that he "decided they weren't fouls" so nothing further occurs.

Oh, while I'm on the subject, Mike Dean is still as bent as they come; we would have lost anyway, but to be stitched up again is sickening.

IMO, Giroud's was the most ridiculous of the lot. 30 mins in, no danger in the game for us and the daft prick picks up two needless yellows and so quickly in succession too. I don't blame Gabriel for today's debacle of a refereeing performance, and Santi was working his nuts off to drag us back into a game that Ozil and Ramsey had long since given up on. Santi's first one was 'taking one for the team' as they say and if he hadn't have done it they were in a great position, and the second was mistimed by a fraction and their boy made a meal of it. TBH, TO1AW is responsible for him playing in a holding role anyway. Wanyama or Kondogbia would have made a hell of a difference playing in that role in a game like today's when a little bit of nastiness and aggression was needed in midfield

Fair play to Shearer for coming out and saying how much he hates that imaginary card waving shite and that he should have been booked for it

Well I knew we'd lose so the result, while disappointing, was not what's upsetting. It's that COsta gets away with so much shit its unbelievable. Motherfucker should have had 2 straight reds + 2 yellows. Gabriel's first yellow was phantom, and the straight red was so soft.

I'm more gutted that it looks like Coq is injured and we have no replacements, and that Gabriel looks like EXACTLY the player we need and he's now suspended 3 fucking games for a straight red. Gabriel was foolish, but I'm not gonna slate him for that. I love his attitude and desire and fight. The rest of the team need more of it.

Same old same old.

If we play Walcott up front might we try 4-4-1-1 to get more out of him, he gets too isolated?

Watched MOTD this morning, Costa is still a *word censored*.

No way can any gooner have a pop at Gabriel for his reaction. The ref was a disgrace and it's typical *word censored* Maureen to stick up for his bent striker.
