Great to see a bit of passion from the team with the celebration at the end, and yes Ozil had a poor game but without him we wouldn't have scored.
Ramsey was poor and really needs to spend some time with practice shooting, Alexis just couldn't get it right today and Monreal struggled a bit BUT for once we got a result with quite a few poor performances and that is where we have lacked in a lot of games over recent years
Both full backs were excellent again today - I'm not having that fucking penalty for Leicester at all. Monreal kept going for the entire 94 minutes and Hector was fantastic too.
It was actually our 'so called' senior players - Ozil, Alexis, Ramsey - who were utter shite today. Nice free kick at the end from Ozil but another big game where I was screaming at the TV. I only hope either JW10 or Santi come back fit and firing and hit form quickly to get Ballerina Aaron and his multiple twists and dragbacks out of the side - slows down every single attack and as for his finishing....pathetic !
Still.....its a day for big smiles and celebrations
I thought Atkinson was going to wind us up by blowing full time and not allowing the free kick to be taken. It was 20 seconds passed 4 minutes, but the foul had occurred inside the 4 minutes, which by definition is injury time by waiting for the ball to get back into play. But, I really thought the sly dog might have done it.

Ive been defending Ramsey, and am one of his biggest believers. But his passing was rubbish, and his efforts on goal were a calamity. Just the little things, such as playing a pass that found Monreal on the left touchline, rather than the ball finding Sanchez who was more inside and in a greater position.
Those overhit/underhit passes in the final third separate good teams from great teams, and sadly our passing can be incredibly sloppy for a team that likes to think of it as the Barcelona of England.
Cazorla return must come sooner than later. Cazorla is a genuine pass master.

Good thing he didnt.
The way Leicester were time-wasting, he probably had just added another minute anyway.
