That's whats been missing for such a long time.
Absolutely, even though we didn't bang in 5 or 6 goals which has I was hoping might happen in the second half. It was a pleasure to watch all the same which is a feeling I haven't had in along time.
really pleased with how we played and the win. Giroud showing Thierry Henry that the latter is right about the kind of striker it takes to win the PL. Hopefully the penny dropped with Wenger, who looks as though he economised yet again - on a decent haircut.
We looked excellent for long periods and haven't cut through a team like we did tonight for about 10 years. If he bothers with the transfer market this summer, we could win the league this time next year it that's if he bothers with the transfer window.
Gary is correct about Jack (fears style of play will lead to inevitable injuries)
Jack dribbles..., someone needs to have a word. Look at Iniesta, and others, they rarely leave their ankle ready for someones studs to crash into. He needs to hurdle challenges, hell dive sometimes. He is so insistent to be the all action hero it's getting rather reckless.
Comfortable and at times brilliant win. Class all around the pitch with the perhaps exception of Giroud. Bellerin a bit lax at time but you have to admire his ability and attitude. Monreal again played well, Jack was amazingly sharp when he came on but he is risking injury with his style. Overall a good night and a good atmosphere from the traveling Gooners.
