Would've been happy with a draw before the game but being 2-1 up after 85 minutes and having to play a replay is frustrating.

Not many teams go to Swansea and come away with a win.

Can't see us getting Villa as well. Everyone at Barca is saying they'll look at moving him in the summer window but not now. Apparently he is keen to come but he's really their only replacement at CF if Messi goes down so i can understand them holding onto him.

Think we will end up with Adrian Lopez and one of M'Vila, Diame or Wanyama. Wouldn't surprise me if we got no one though.

You were rubbish today.

Your heads dropped so quickly after the sending of, and the first goals you conceded were very poor. Especially the first one, just watch the world class movement Milner had to do to find space...

Whats with your full backs? They seemed to come inside so often, even when City had a winger outside of them, is it a tactic or are they just not very good? Honest question as i don't see much off them and it happened a lot in this game.

Also a note to Mr Wenger, if its going a bit wrong, don't sit there shaking your head, get up and b*llock someone, a players, the ref a ball boy, anyone, just show the team you expect some passion.

The ref didn't have to send Kos off, but i can see why he did, i then thought he lost the game completey, Vermaelen lost his head as did a few of the players and there was zero control. I thought Kompanys red was a bit harsh but from the refs angle it looked bad.

Carzola has gone completely down the pan for you guys, Podolski had a few nice moments but Giroud is rubbish. Other than that, Diaby looked rusty after his lay off, broke a few things up but some of his passing was below parr. Wilshire has small man syndrome which will get him in trouble and it effects his game, he was the only one actually trying out there though. Your defence is terrible and play like strangers.

Cheers mate.

We're lucky it was only 0-2. Couldn've been a lot worse. Looked like it was going to end up 1-6 at one point.

Yeah, sorry about that. The key point i was trying to make was the today part. I didn't want a debate about Arsenal this season but just the game vs city.


Do your fullbacks play so narrow all the time? Strange way of doing it i thought. Gibbs is still young learning but Sagna is experienced enough to know better.

Other than that, it looked bad before the sending off, but once that happened your heads dropped alarmingly. Its not like it was close and City scored near the end or anything. It was all bad.

I was disappointed to be honest with Arsenal, not seen them much this year and there standards are dropping quite badly.

Piss off mate. You don't even know what you're talking about when it comes to your own team. The second half was alright and Wilshere was awesome.

We know we're sh*t at the moment, we don't need the laughing stock of the football forum talking to us like he's had an epiphany.

Wilshere's gotta be CAM from now on. He was phenomenal this morning.

Better get some decent players to surround him or he'll be off to one of the "big clubs" (City/Chelsea) in 2 or 3 years.

Jack Bleeds red my man, he wont leave unless something went drastically wrong for him and considering hes the future Arsenal and England Captain he will be fine.

In the Rumor Mill, Arsenal have have bid 30mill for a player, apparently a player we have been looking at for years.

Fingers crossed its Gotze or Cavani

Yeah, he definitely loves the club and has stated before he wants to be a one club man. But who knows what'll happen in the future. We keep sliding down the table and I can't imagine he will enjoy putting 100 percent into every game fighting for Europa league spots when he could be winning titles and earning double with Referee's United and the other two "big" clubs.

Yeah i heard that too.

I think it's bullshit though. Came from that Geoff guy on twitter and he's since deleted the tweet. Really can't see anything happening. Best i'm hoping for is Diame haha.

I might be wrong but i think he was one of the guys saying Walcott's new deal was going to be announced before the City game.

yea true that, i believe once the walcott deal is done we will look at a few players,

Yohann Gourcuff is available for 3.5 mill apparently, wouldnt be a bad option to replace Andrei

I'd offer him a 2 year contract on 30k a week with incentives.

He's not the player he used to be. That goal he scored against PSG is one of my favorites.

Wenger has said that the period of the stadium being a noose around us in terms of financial power is finished. We apparently have the ability to spend big for the right player.

But knowing him that probably means we'd pay 20 million if Messi became available.

About the game, Wilsheres goal was great. We were unlucky not to score more. We were good defensively against a team that can score goals. Diaby has started 2 games in 3 days and survived both. And he worked really well with Coquelin.

On the cons side, Diaby is probably due for a lightning strike or something.

Wilshere's gotta be CAM from now on. He was phenomenal this morning.

He is signed until 2018.

We're actually 9/4 favourites to sign Cavani according to Skybet. There may actually be some legs to this. But I don't have the energy to get my hopes up.

meh, whatever.

You tell yourselves that and i'm sure you will be alright. Second half you were ace. That string of wonder saves Hart made must keep you warm at night. :roll:


i asked a simle question because i was curious, if you don't have the capacity to answer then just shush and keep dreaming of Gourcuff or something.

No chance. His wages alone would stop him coming to you if you were the only team interested.

We can afford to pay him whatever Napoli are paying him. We're apparently going to pay Walcott as much as 120k a week.

The wages part of the equation isn't the real problem. It's transfer fees. We insist on making a profit on those. Can't see us spending 30 million to get Cavani unless we sold Wilshere the same day.
