Between the 30th minute and 60th minute, I'm pretty sure Arsenal had most of the possession.


Correct. 60/40

they showed him looking more depressed than usual, kind of waving his hand, not looking into the crowd, getting into the tunnel as fast as he could

There were a few dangerous moments but that doesn't make up for the complete waste that Arshavin was today or the disappearance of RvP.


Like I said, now everyone wants to be the creator. Off the ball movement was pretty poor. Even Theo, who loves making runs behind, was holding his run waiting for the ball to be played to his feet. When Van Persie continually drops back into a withdrawn forward role, and doesn't make any attempt to play as a number 9, you're going to be toothless.

FSC, I guess? I hate sunday games. I have to go to church or the Cubs will suck worse than they do now and City will be relegated. They need me at church

Another positive...LB is sorted, Enrique is solid...

Can't wait until him and Downing get a better understanding of each other in attack...

I promise you there was a 60/40 stretch in Arsenal's favor.

did he want to make up for the lack of Fabregas on his own or something?

It was mostly toothless possession. Even with a young team, I expect us to dominate possession this year, but just look more toothless than usual.

Arsenal were absolute shite today and you know it


Yet until the sending off there really wasn't any threats from Pool on their goal.



It was a real shite match from both sides until Pool made the substitutes after Arsenal were down a man.

In hindsight I don't know if Arsenal were capable of pulling a Mancini and sitting back on defense all match, and I don't know if it would have even prevented goals.

I agreed with you until this. Obviously, obviously the run of play was in pools favor. It was a waiting game for all of us until Mierles and Suarez came in.

because we have a big dummy leading the line who isn't 100% certain of the offsides rule and a standing order that we can't have more than 3 consecutive passes without one heading his direction in the air.

there are some serious problems out there having him be the only striker that is for sure.


would've worked out well if any one of henderson, adam, or lucas occasionally decided to make an incisive venture forward

obviously kidding about lucas, wouldn't expect that out of a brazilian

This always happened when Fabregas wasn't playing. Maybe with Wilshere back we'll have some semblance of movement.

VP and Arshavin both have excellent final balls, but they need movement in front of them. I really really really really hope Nasri goes so we don't have to play him centrally, because he has no clue when it comes to moving the ball.
