Bindippers away Wed 20.00

[Sean]

We knew robbing a win was too good to be true, especially with Citeh dropping points. Bottle jobs again. Suicidal tactics, game management and substitutions from TOF. 1st position lost again.

Schoolboy defending at both ends. Class assist for Campbell for Ramsey's goal. Great second goal from Giroud, shame it was all for fuck all.

WENGER OUT!

[Redarmy]

Arteta for Ozil a priceless substitution

He does this sort of rubbish every time. He never bloody learns.

yes poor his legs have gone adds nothing when he comes on sad to say

[StuartL]

Just seen the replay of their equalizer and the Big Fucking Coward turned away in fear yet again.

At least City drawing is a real bonus - another game gone, still top.

Need to man up on Sunday v Orcs.

[OneBardGooner]

That Right There Is Why We Will NOT Win The Title.

Just fuckoff wenker you utter cluelesscunt

[hartson]

needed at least 6 points from the next 3 games - 2 wins against stoke and bluecunts and i think the title might be ours as city bottleling it big time

[GoonerMuzz]

Ok it puts Leicester on the same points as us but the silver linings is the Spuds lost, so not altogether a bad night

[the playing mantis]

what is the point of bringing arteta on? a fucked ozil is still faster, the guy is so slow so adds nothing. just a liability. please arteta just go.

a poor result given its a crap liverpool side and the atrocious allen scores but at least scum lost and we havent lost ground

Purchasing a tough tackling centre midfielder is not a priority though ( still 2 weeks till the window closes)

Is there a manager out there who is worse at managing games?

First of all, the worst thing we could do was go up there and let them have as much of the ball as they wanted. Sure enough their fans got right behind them and they grew massively in confidence.

We then just sat back, back and back for the last 20 minutes. Invited a completely unnecessary level of pressure on ourselves whilst offering no corresponding threat on the counter-attack. They are such a poor side, we just didn't need to do it.

Why bring on Arteta to run around and try and harry the opposition? The bloke's legs are gone - either bring him on to sit/screen (which he isn't much good at), leave Ozil on because he will actually keep and use the ball well or bring on somebody with a bit of an engine like Chambers to chase down.

We threw away wins there at the death in 2008 and last year again through woeful game management and terrible defending. Nice to see us reverting to type - as we inevitably will when we chuck about a very winnable league title tonight.

The equalizer that was invited for the last 25 minutes. The most recent example of how to chuck it away when the pressure is on. 2 points dropped against an absolutely ragbag Liverpool team

Nothing has changed in terms of our ability to give the ball away endlessly rather than see a game out. That was the easiest in the run of 3 league games

Lets see if anything has REALLY changed when we take a trip to the land that time forgot on Sunday....followed up with err....at best an insipid 0-0 against the lot from the Bridge

I know a lot of people will take a lot of positives from tonight but I'm really struggling.....a Mickeys team that were dead on their feet at 2-3 and with a back line more porous than a sponge.....and there you go, we spend that last 20 mins giving them the encouragement to come back into it

And although nobody else will agree I thought Cech was shit for all 3 goals

[MAGooner]

It seems like we are all in agreement.
Falling back into a defensive shell never fucking works.

[markyp]

great idea to close down the game with comedy arteta and comedy gibbs,how many times has wenker done this and we go on to concede,never ever take ozil off,he is our best outlet and holds on to the ball,what a fucking throwaway,thats why we wont win the league yet again,wenker out

If it was witty, intelligent or incisive then yes I did
