We were awful second half, won't disagree with anyone on that - but signings like Benayoun were made for nights like tonight, experience, calmness exactly when he needed to be, despite only being on a few minutes.

Will will betop 4? Who knows, but all i know is we have more of a bloody chance than we did before the window closed.

Nice to stick one up McCleish - the Fergie blowing wanker!

MERRY CHRISTMAS lads, even you BABTUNDE (you c++t :wink: )...

Lets hope 2012 is a lot better than 2011 eh?

oh, and Laurent Koscielnly is a fucking legend - thank god we didnt get Samba or Cahill - Arsene Knows! :lol: :barscarf:
Im like you BDB wait for the game to end before passing comment but on this occasion when he brought that useless donkey on i just had to vent my frustration :lol:


Hutton you are a dirty *word censored* and mcleish you are nothing but fergies rent boy

I never thought I'd say it to be honest but I think we missed Song a bit tonight. He's not the best DM but he does offer protection to the back four and puts himself about a bit. Frimpong was just bypassed all game, we looked far better when Rosicky and Benayoun came on.

I'm not trying to spoil the celebrations but how many times do we say "shit performance" and you hear "Arsenal weren't at their best"? We seem to get that every other game, and it's been happening for about three or four years. :?

GOOD WIN

I would have taken a draw so that is a bonus.
Wenger showed he is a tactical genius yet again.

2 easy home games over Christmas should see us up into 4th very soon


by the way for those who said we played shit tonight - Man Utd have been doing that for years and getting late goals. That is the mark of a good side.

You know you try not to but the temptation is there when he posts especially when he comes out with pure comedy about wenger and tactical genius :lol:
