[say yes]

This is exactly the kind of game where Crouch will come on and score winner/get the match winning assist

Fixed.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

The referees just get worse with each passing year.

 

[Trilly]

I do it for a reaction...

Starting to realise.

 

[Hunta]

We should be killing them off with that type of domination, frustrating.

 

[Rimaal]

Calm down don't forget your breathing!

I'm going for a walk with my dog.

 

[{reed}]

Laca fire power.

 

[blaze_of_glory]

Xhaka needs to sharpen up. Rain is messing with his passing and he's not adapting to it.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Not bad half from us should been 1 up and had a penalty.

 

[Kroket]

Marriner having an absolute nightmare, what a surprise.

 

[NieThePiet]

Imagine we are not scoring against these..

Welbeck had good 10 minutes, then ne stopped playing.

 

[Jasard]

Xhaka and Özil 2/10.

Get Iwobi on (he on the bench?)

 

[DanDare]

We've not had enough times where we're in advanced positions before Stoke are settled in their defensive shape

 

[Taylor Gang Gunners]

I'm going for a walk with my dog.

Don't hurry back x

 

[Jury]

Yes xhaka been our worst player today. Sloppy in position passing been awful and slow

That's my critique of him. If he isnt passing it well or being given space to do so, he doesnt have anything else in his locker.

 

[Sapient Hawk]

Xhakas been utter ****e.

To be fair, as far as he's concerned, its par for the course regarding his Arsenal career so far.

 

[silky_shava]

Too many sloppy inconsistent players in one team. Frustrating first half.

 

[juice man]

How the **** was that a foul? Pulls right out of the challenge, doesn't get within 3 feet of the keeper.

Absolutely ridiculous.

 

[Aevi]

Not the best half. Should have had a pen though, and at least we have a clean sheet.

 

[razörist]

Don't hurry back x

Harsh.

 

[Makingtrax]

we need more black players in midfield.

Need more purple patches.
