Surely can't do two in a row. Especially after a few contentious decisions

Yeah, but you're not seriously blaming him for that record, are you? - it's not his fault we're shit, is it? :? :lol:

That first goal in particular was embarrassing, the second was just poor play but the first was us in a nutshell: nobody paying one iota of attention to their responsibilities.
Pretty much how I feel, though Wilshere gave his all and Sagna tried hard.

He didn't blame the sending off for the defeat. When asked did he think it was a pen he said he hasn't seen it again but he was told it was so fair enough. He also said that just coz we were down to ten 10 it doesnt mean we cant defend properly. Also said he didnt think Kompany should've been sent off.

There was actually :roll: :lol:

No infamous "handbrake", but I think he said we were "timid" at the start. Same thing really :|

No infamous "handbrake", but I think he said we started "tentatively". Same thing really :|

I think he said we were timid to start off with which is basically calling the players pussies :twisted:

To be fair I thought the 2nd half was much better from us defensively, though they did get a couple of chances. For me though it was all a bit tame from everyone bar Wilshere and perhaps Sagna- no one really seemed to get in their faces and put them under pressure. They weren't great today by any means, I mean they played James "average" Milner on the right and he actually scored ffs.

To be honest with you though I am getting sick of some of our mentally fragile group of players. Walcott was shite today, practically non existent, Podolski did very little and what Kos was thinking for the sending off I have no idea- a fucking rugby tackle in the box.
Mertesacker must be the only Centre back I have ever seen that cant jump- that header from Javi Garcia in the 1st half, I mean the BFG is 6ft 6 For Fuck Sake.

Cazorla disappeared again and he seems to be making a habit of this, even though its not fashionable to criticize him.

All in all a very meek surrender and it further highlights the fact that its not just up front we are lacking but all across the backline as well- we just have shit options.
