Ox's job is to take people on. He was very dangerous today. He's good in that wingback role.

Looked like a team trying out a new formation. But we were solid mostly defensively and did some okay things. Whatever. Wins are wins at this point and we need a bunch to get into the top 4, which looks very unlikely anyway.

Pros are Holding looks good, Alexis is a stud, we tried some new shite, Ozil and Ramsey got involved in a goal and we won.

It was nice seeing Ozil finish with his right foot. I had to do a double take when watching the replay.

What we learned today is that we are not built for 3 in the back. The personnel isn't there.

I just completely disagree. He missed multiple tackles, made several missed passes and generally was a non-factor. Nobody on this team, other than Alexis, was even remotely dangerous today. The fact is we beat the absolute worst team in the league by 2-1 and that was very close. Arsenal would lose right now to Brighton, Fulham, and probably Sheffield Wed. We should have absolutely no chance against Man City in the cup tie. I really hope I am wrong. Love on the Ox all you want, let's see who goes after him in the transfer market.
