Should have taken off Gervinho instead of Poldi.
Why? Podolski played as invisible a 65+ minutes as is humanly possible.

Congrats to Chelsea on the away win. Mostly a good, clean, and entertaining game. We just weren't good enough today. Tired touches and tired runs throughout.

Poldi's movement was better than anything Gervinho did outside of a ball that fell to him. You must not pay attention.

Oh, that's right, he played in the Bundesliga so it's impossible for him to have a bad game. My bad.

Randy, clearly we weren't watching the same game. Pod was one of our most threatening players.

Great win at the Emirates today! Impressed with our performance. 3 points isn't easy there. Mata played a great game, Cech was on point and Giroud was well...Giroud.

Cech was Cech and Giroud was Giroud. Santi played meh.

When exactly did he threaten, he barely even got a sniff of the ball. Much less in a dangerous position. I guess Wegner was wasn't watching the same game either.

It's hard for Santi and Pod to get going out there with Gervinho on the pitch. Their frustration with him was visible today. It almost looks as though Poldi, Cazorla, Arteta, Ox, Ramsey (even though poor in second half today) and even Giroud in his movement are playing chess while Gervinho is playing checkers. He stops the ball and the flow of attack. You cannot break down good defenses like Chelsea by dribbling and playing horrendous crosses to nobody. Everyone was trying to one-touch through the defense, and Gerv would completely stop the flow and attacking movement by holding the ball. At the moment, I will take Giroud missing every chance he has over Gervinho out there. At least Giroud attracts attention and opens up space in the box for others to put the ball in. Gervinho helps nobody but himself.

Every dangerous through ball into the 18 was played to Podolski. I get your contrarian shtick, but don't be a dumbass.
I'm not even a huge Poldi fan either but his movement has been better than anything he's done in the last 5 years.

Good match Arsenal fans. Sorry this wasn't posted sooner, I had to bolt right after the match. If you all can find a goal scorer, you will be very dangerous.

i dont think we need a goal scorer, you have us by one goal in gd. We were still in the game even though we got outplayed, but we had some chances. What we really need is our fricking keeper back.

Yeah, more and better than Chelsea. If you had a finisher, you may have got the full 3 points. Giroud is not very good yet.

Just finished watching the game.
first off let me
at Jenkinson for that dive bullshite. But other than that I was impressed again.
Walcott is a horrible choice for a sub against a sound defensive team who are up a goal. he was anonymous.
Ramsey shouldn't have started, I hope to see Ox starting next week. Ramsey starting means Arsene is afraid of the other team and wants to crowd the midfield/defense by possession, but he makes so many mistakes going forward.
Giroud again had great strength in hold up play and great movement.. came really close twice but he's just not found his form yet.
5-head had a great goal, but not the best decision making outside of that and should have came off in the 65th instead of Podolski who was having a pretty good game.
We REALLY need to work on some damn set piece defense, I'm scared every time.
Wolosinflsng Sscscnesny needs to come back, he makes some mistakes but he has a lot more of a presence in the back.
Impressed by the Ox, and Arteta was amazing again.
Cazorla had flashes but for the first time he got taken out of the game a bit by Mikel.
Cech is a beast.
