Ramsey's ball to Walnut was absolutely brilliant. Would have been a great assist had the useless twat stuck it away.

Said it before, Diaby would get crucified if he played like Ramsey.
If you watch it, really watch it, you'll see it isn't that at all.

Ramsey is quick in mind, quick in feet, but always waiting for play to catch up with him or move ahead of him.

He has no chance in our current set up, he is surrounded by inadiquacy. Heaven forbid he played more regularly with Cesc or even Wilshere but he's fucked.

For everything Arteta does well, we're looking at £10m on the type of player you should be able bring up for free in your youth system.

Ramsey is suffering, you can see the boy wants to ball, tries to ball, but he's fucked with whats around him.
Got to agree with this. :shock:

Our front line can't make a run to save their life. The amount of times that Walcott cocked his run up yesterday was... :banghead: :banghead:
Ramsey always has his head up to make the pass, but there's rarely a willing (onside) runner. He must be as frustrated as all of us.

Right now what annoys me is how poor our finishing is. :banghead: :banghead: Robin should have had 3 or 4 more goals yesterday, along with Theo and Gervinho our final ball was simply appalling. Since Villia we seem to have started struggling to finish teams off.

Robin's shocks me, the amount of times he had a great opportunity and blazed it over surprised me. Usually you can count on him to keep a cool head and slot it past the keeper, but I can understand maybe he felt some pressure from the Shearer record and with how many games he is having to play due to his form. Hope he gets rested tomorrow.

As for Theo, he has had plenty of chances to play and a bit like Diaby, for every good game he has he decides to do shit for several other games after. I'm willing to give Gervinho the benefit of the doubt as I hope after this year of adapting to the game he will show marked improvement later on. Pires and Kos needed that time and they both played better as a result.

Been concerned about this for about a year or so. Seems we have to create 10 chances before we finally stick one away, very frustrating.

Hasn't bothered me so much untill lately. Because lately we seem to be missing so many easy chances. :roll: ones where we just need to slot it past the keeer into a bottom corner and we somehow conspire to let it go over or round the post. :banghead:
