Have you learnt nothing watching arsenal for the last 5 years?
We're a team playing without confidence. I'm not going to start writing us off at half time. Like I said I would take winning 1-0 and playing shit right now.

:roll:

Total contrast 2nd half. Amazing how much improvement you can see just by moving the ball at a speed quicker than a slow motion replay and actually moving forward with a bit of purpose.

Credit where it's (possibly) due, did Wenger actually give them a decent half-time team talk/bollocking? :shock: :?

Bolton really are shit though. Still think we could be in big trouble at the shithole. :(

i'd like to say it was a good idea not to start arshavin, has wenger hinted if players are unable to all track back, in the modern game that is a big
liability for a team!!!

Good result.

Defensively mostly OK. Theo was poor, shame about the hamstring, gervinho had a very poor game but. Hey we win, and move away from the relegation zone.

lol @ one arsene wenger song.

Walcott had an ok game - but he wastes so so much - a run for the OX might just be beneficial to us.

Doesnt disguise what has gone on before, but if look at today in isolation it was a very good performance from front to back.

Bigger challenges lay ahead - but this was a tricky game and we managed to get the job done properly - for the first time in fucking ages! :barscarf:

Walcott was Shit, how many more chances does he need? He went through one on one today and showed wy Wenger don't play him upfront.

A win is a win, was nervey but don't care now.

3 Points and a clean sheet.

That surely must help their confidence.

Hopefully this will be the case. We've got another home game against Olympiakos on Wednesday night to hopefully get another shot of confidence. The scum play at home to Shamrock Rovers on Thursday night, so fingers crossed we'll go into the game on Sunday a little fresher and with far more confidence than we've been playing with recently.

When that song started up some people around me started booing! It really is a divided stadium these days.

Just a knock on the knee for Walcott, he'll be in contention for Wednesday's game.

What a great week. We beat a team from the fourth level of English football on Tuesday and today we beat 10 man Bolton :roll: . Everything is alright again. Wenger knows what he is doing. In Arsene We Trust!

Hearing the crowd sing “one Arsene Wengerâ€

Must have been weird for Mertesacker who found himself partnering somebody who got a bang on the head, after which that player thought he was Beckenbauer.

In summary, Koscielny is a useless *word censored*
