Denilson, Squid, Arshavin. they have all been dreadful. Arshavin gets lucky every now and then by having an assist, I guess he gets a good play for every 10 he royally screws up.

Diaby I haven't seen enough of. Song has been not as solid as last year, he has picked it up lately, beginning of the season he was poor. Clichy has been a real downer though, considering he was amazing not too long ago.

Andrei Arshavin will a goal saving challenge. I don't know what to believe anymore.

I know right, we hardly ever see him even track back past midfield.

Arshavin gets himself into better, more dangerous positions than he ever has. He just misses the final ball so many times.

Almunia with a great save. At this point a Huddersfield goal is inevitable.

his final decision and execution are downright dreadful.

Wow Denilson constantly gives the ball away into dangerous counter attack situations.

Arsenal are very liable to get 2 or more scored on them. They are on the ropes right now.

well there is the equalizer. It's only a matter of time till they take the lead. Arsenal can't even maintain possession for a second, and since their starting defensive unit is horrible of course this second unit would be even worse.

Once again, Arsenal can't defend a set play and get scored on. This has got to come down to coaching. It is much too frequent to be simply a lack of height.

Djourou and Kos have created a solid partnership. With Song and Kos we don't have an aerial CB.

At this point, Clattenberg isn't going to give Denilson anything. Thought that last loss of possession of a foul, but he won't be getting that call.

Fab for Diaby.

Why does every color commentator have to pronounce Beowulf's name "Bed-NAR?"

Losing Nasri so early really hurt.

To be honest, I know Arsenal are down a man and probably wouldn't mind the draw, but I would rather them put on Jack and take off Denilson's sorry arse.

How on earth did Nicky B ruin that wide open chance from 6 yards out? Easy goal there.

It's amazing, just putting Fab on the pitch has resulted in 3 very quick attack opportunities.

No clue.

Yeah losing Nasri hurt. Being out of subs sucks.

It was a very rough 7 or so minutes then they got the equalizer. Fab came on and now Arsenal have not only a good amount of possession, but they are mounting some attacks, and are in hudd's half quite a bit.

What do you know, Denilson losing possession once again. This guy is a complete scrub this season. He can't even defend well, what is the point of having him out there?

Nicky B really doesn't have much technical skill. How he gets goals amazes me. Last seeason was much of the same, his crossing, first touch, and dribbling were all horrid, yet he continues to score(even if they are deflections).

10 minutes left to hold on to the draw and get a replay out of this.

Arsenal actually look like they could get a goal though. But, knowing how shoddy our defending is it just as easily could be a goal against them.

Awesome, great pass by Cesc to Nicky B and a good sized dive draws a penalty for Arsenal.

Could have been a red considering what Squid got.

gotta convert

Yeah Beowulf's touch is inconsistent.

Don't see how that's not a red card. PK to Arsenal. 2-1 Fabregas.
