PL | Bournemouth v Arsenal | 3/1/17 | 7:45

I'm going to add - although Cech doesn't make many obvious errors - I am not feeling confident in him anymore. It's not taking much to get past him these days and I feel he's becoming too indecisive.

We all know how a keeper who isn't sure of himself transmits negative energy to the defence. See Almunia, Fabianski, Sczesney.

It may just be bad form but still I'd give Ospina a run.

I totally agree with you on this, I've been saying this since the summer.
He declining very quickly and his kicking puts us under massive pressure.

Giroud 2 assists today were great. This guy is fantastic if you play in his strength sad we didn't one good cross in the box at 1st half

 

[SA Gunner]

Swansea win their game before playing us. Great.

I actually expect us to win that one.

Simply because we are back to being doubted and labelled **** again. Time to prove everyone wrong.

 

[Hunter Zolomon]

That's how manu under Fergie kept winning the league all these years.
To me it seems we don't do it often I don't know where you got your impression from. Fighting back is the stuff of champions.

fighting back is good if you are facing a team of your level, if you are fighting back against lower level teams then that just means your weak period.

Wenger blaming rest days disadvantage

Klopp said something similar yesterday.

 

[Anders_Limpar]

He sprinted back straight after the silly dance too and was disappointed at the end, why are people acting like he was happy with a draw?

He should have grabbed the ball and sprinted back to the centre circle. It's a small thing but you'd NEVER see players at United or Chelsea milking a goal to draw against TEN man Bournemouth.

His all round game wasn't good today. He, and the entire team, need to sort out their attitude. They need to run like men possessed every game. And yet we are constantly second best to every ball ... Disgraceful 70 mins.

Swansea always plays like ****ing Barcelona against us.Welsh ****s.

 

[razörist]

Anyway,who said today we would win because we get outpressed, outmuscled but not outplayed, and Bournemouth like to play? They had ten men, we had the momentum and they managed to play keep ball in the extra time. Its time to leave this forum whoever you are.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

It look we will see Xhaka- Ramsey for upcoming games its good pairing but defensively with them we will struggle away from home

 

[MagicalRozza]

We were f*** in the first half, poverty football.

But no denying the fight back . . . that's not weak mentality in anybody's book mate.

No, no and fuk NO! It was a pathetic display of weak mentality. They completely outplayed us and we shat our pants. I don't wanna hear about refs and injuries. We were **** and I loved their passion and desire to win. They showed the same against pool and rather successfuly. We came back because of individual brilliance. As a team we still played ****e. The quality of our squad obliged us to win and we failed miserably. I was afraid that some fans will catch to the result to try justify their agenda. I can already hear Robbie saying "but we didn't lose did we?". Well we ****ing didn't win and played like ****e so that's what matters.

Wenger blaming rest days disadvantage

Right on cue he pulls out the "Great resilience" crap. Just once I want him to admit this was nothing short of a craven surrender of our faint title hopes when we failed to stand up & be counted, yet again.

 

[Rex Stone]

Mustafi was unbelievably bad.

Wenger can not for the life of himself sign a proper CB.

Come on. Guy is in his first game back in weeks from injury and he's been class tonight apart. Can't be writing him off already.

 

[Rimaal]

Klopp said something similar yesterday.

He didn't field the wrong team, Wenger did. Ramsey as 10, ffs.

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

Mustafi was unbelievably bad.

Wenger can not for the life of himself sign a proper CB.

Mustafi is quality, don't be ****ing daft lad. It's his first game back after a month out with a hamstring injury.

We've not lost a game with him starting.

 

[Anders_Limpar]

fighting back is good if you are facing a team of your level, if you are fighting back against lower level teams then that just means your weak period.

Fighting back to win = Good.

Fighting back to draw against ten man piss poor Bournemouth after an abject display = Not so good.

 

[Lady_Gooner]

Wenger blaming rest days disadvantage

He has to go but he's right. It's a joke, 48 hours preparation is a farce

 

[SA Gunner]

So how many points to finish 3rd then?

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

It look we will see Xhaka- Ramsey for upcoming games its good pairing but defensively with them we will struggle away from home

Just like we have been struggling with the Francis 'I'm barking dog' Coquelin the whole season.

Also it is becoming a little myth that Ramsey doesn't contribute defensively.

 

[Hunta]

Mustafi is quality, don't be ****ing daft lad. It's his first game back after a month out with a hamstring injury.

We've not lost a game with him starting.

Lol to be fair mate I think this 'not lost a game with Mustafi' is about as desperate as our 'unbeaten in 19 games' despite clinging on in most of them.

 

[Garrincha]

Mustafi was asked to play CB & CM most of the game... Both badly granted but hard to blame him.
