PALACE AWAY THREAD

[rodders999]

Fucking hell watching us try to score a goal is absolute torture. Only for the og we'd never have scored, our goals to shots ratio must be abysmal.

[Theoperator]

Good to see we still can't kill a game off...

I beg to differ, we can if we are at least 3-0 up and not in Newcastle

Minor amendment there
3 points is 3 points, but how utterly unconvincing.

[robbo10]

all rosey

And we're above Chelsea and the Scum!!

[hartson]

wow can we really ONLY win if the opposition score an own goal

[markyp]

total crock of shit,a win but fucking pathetic,palace matched us in all departments,palace ffs!!

[GoonerMuzz]

As predicted.....let mass window licking begin

By the way - I feel more nervous with the giant snail in goal than when we had Almunia and Flappy at their worst. From their corners he showed all the presence of a little girl

I have to agree SteveO, i'd happily have Ospina still in goal right now, sorry but Cech may be worth 12pts a season but not right now he's not.

A little girl in a rugby hat....

Game should have been over in the first half and there we are hanging on for dear life until the final whistle. My nerves can't stand it.

[GoonerMuzz]

Anyone know a decent mid-table conference team i can support who wont put me through the wringer 9 months of the year?

Any manager with a brain takes Coquelin off asap...

He can't make a sub before the 70th minute it upsets his routine.

Scraped that...Alexis still (understandably) rusty or he might have had a hat trick - Ramsey back to doing those flicks that never come off....Giroud good goal but other than that a fucking Lamp Post.....Don't know about abyone else but everytime the ball goes near our goal and I see Cech it just looks weird.... also i think he has now realised the chav defence who used to protect him in corners and free kicks are no longer there and he has to do with our lot....wenger PLEASE Fuckoff.

[LeftfootlegendGooner]

We were by far the better side and I don't see palace losing many at home tbf, we should have had 3 or 4 goals at least and that highlights the fact we need a top class striker.

Giroud though did score a quality goal so fair play to him.

Our midfield players need to accept some responsibility in front of goal because they had a ton of chances even down to the last kick of the game from the ox who should have scored if he had just kept his composure.

Be fair now please. We always "respond" against the likes of Palace/Villa/Norwich. And Arsene has "proven his critics wrong".
For the umpteenth time.


As I said before a ball was kicked: Coquelin isn't good enough, nowhere near. As brainless as Alex Thong FFS

[Henry Norris 1913]

we need someone to marshall the midfield and coq is definitely not that. if we had a decent DM and a striker of any description that would have been 3-0 today

[OneBardGooner]

Niall Quinn what a cunnt.

Window licking? Do you honestly think sane Arsenal fans would get carried away with that? But conversely, the doomsayers shouldn't really complain, an ugly win away was something we couldn't achieve a few seasons ago.

IMO we should have put palace out of the game before they even got going. In the circumstances it's a good result so we should be happy, pisses me off when the usual peeps still moan. Some players still haven't started the season but thank god for Alexis.

The thing that really annoyed me about the game was Giroud having a pop at Alexis in the first half. Total gulf in class even when he is half fit, so shut it you french tart.
