Shocking performance, lacking in Intensity, no drive or ideas at all, best thing to say is that they cannot play as bad in the second half (Hopefully)

Agree that Pod has been anonymous, Super Nic ftw ! (gotta try something)

Amazing how a player's reputation grows when he doesn't play ! The lumbering Dane has had tons of chances over the years to show whether he can play that role and has been shite nearly every time

Just realistic. Another highly predictable outcome

Out at mo and only have me phone so haven't seen any of it but if people are asking for the worlds greatest striker to be brought on I can only assume we have hit a new low :shock: :lol:

Did see on sky live scored that theo has had a couple of chances, were they clear cut ?

The voices in Augie's head will say they were :D but in reality half chances

It sounds like another 60 quid bargain.

Still at least Wenger is renowned for his astute tactical half time changes and subs.

Never in a million years, did I think I would say I share your optimism, but good on you all the same

I stopped coming here because I thought it brought bad luck (footie fans and their superstitions), but today's first half was so bad I thought I would pop back and enjoy sharing the gloom :D

Lets hope for a better second half, Cardiff are shite, we can't do as bad, Hopefully Mr Bould had a few words at half time, come on you REDS!!!!!!! :barscarf:

ive said it before but i dont think arteta and flamini can be in the team together. it should be one or the other, with ramsey/wilshire/rosicky playing alongside them. cazorla/ozil/ramsey in front of them.


we're at least looking better in the 2nd half so far

I see we are reverting to our tip tap, walk towards the box approach

I think against the better teams the two are better employed together but against teams like Cardiff and at home it hinders our attacking play.

Bit early for subs isn't it?

Bendtner and Rosicky on, Poldi and Flamini off
