Jenkinson was playing well, so his sub made no sense. Ramsey should have been taken out instead. Taking out Jenkinson really put a crutch in our subs after that.
Poldi looked poor.
Giroud looked poor.
Ramsey looked really poor. (sorry OBU, I disagree with your sentiment here)
The defense had serious lapses that really cost us, especially Verm.
Per was solid, as was Arteta. Jack played decent for 70 minutes and then looked gassed.
Our attack is impotent. Our crosses from the side yield nothing because Giroud or Walcott (lol) is going 1v2 or 1v3 against the defense trying to win headers or low driving crosses in the box.
No one shoots. We seem unable to play through the middle. Our go-to attacking play seems to be scramble around in the middle until it gets clogged, then pass it out wide and hope for something to come from a cross. Clearly it's not working.
I would love to see what a combination of Giroud and Walcott up top could do for us. I think a switch to a 4-4-2 is in order, because we simply aren't getting it done otherwise.
I used to have faith in Wenger but now I just doubt his tactical acumen.

We must've been watching entirely different matches if you thought Ramsey was really poor and Jack was decent.
Per was Per. Fairly solid then statue-esque at important points. Kos should've started. Both Per and TV5 need to move on in the summer.
The way the game is played these days, we'd get overrun in the midfield playing a 442.
