Burnley vs Arsenal Match Ratings

[AshburtonGhost]

Eduardo was poor but yes, Theo was worse.

Seriously under what rationale? The only logical thing I can think of is that he was on the pitch for longer.

Honestly, that is probably part of it and that at least Eduardo hit the target with one chance and got in behind the defence a couple of times. Theo on the other hand dead set touched the ball twice in the first half and was completely inconsequential until his substitution in the second. Yes, it is probably splitting hairs as they were both terrible, but Theo was worse, he doesn't even look like doing anything at the moment.

I'll take this. Ramsey and Eduardo probably deserve a 5 each.

A WOW for Almunia is right. The man deserves a 10. Utter genius jumping over the ball to let Fletcher tap into the open goal because he knew Fletcher was offside. You can be absolutely sure that Almunia did that just to see the look on Fletcher's face when the goal was chalked off for offside. Priceless! Goalkeeping can't get better than this.

:cry:

 

[banduan]

what almunia did was enough to sink the hearts of a thousand titanics

 

[Lazaq]

Almunia 2 - @€£#?¤!"#!!!

Sagna 6 - Ok.
Gallas 6 - Went AWOL for their goal, but was fine otherwise.
Vermaelen 5 - Bruce Lee would have been proud.
Silvetre 6 - Did ok for a fourth choice.

Song 6 - Can't make a pass to save his life, but was ok otherwise.
Fabregas 8 - Great, before the injury. Still contributed more than Theo after leaving the pitch. Hah!
Diaby 5 - Passenger, with a few good moments though.

Arshavin 6 - Our only threat.
Nasri 5 - Too many bullshit flicks.
Theo 3 - Makes Eboue seem efficient these days

Ramsey 6 - Fine. Him and Nasri might work, if Cesc is out for the weekend?
Eduardo 3 - No better than Theo. A hollow shell of a man.

No. He will always be a Manc c**t and he is still f****g useless.

The way that Eagles lad raced by him was embarrassing. I just feel like punching him in the face.

Turn 12, please.

Change Diaby to a 4 and I'd agree with this.

 

[Biggus]

Good to see that everybody recognises now that Almunias touch on to the bar from Vermaelens back header under pressure was a result of him not commanding his box, but for his reflexes saving him we should have been 1-0 down in the first few minutes.

My work here is complete.

He was dire last night but cant resist biting at this one..bit like saying, you nearly knocked over that poor pedestrian...if you hadnt of turned the steering wheel

But agree, he needs to be dropped.

And seriously Del bBoy, Silvestre has been decent in just about every game so far this season. Not wonderful, not world class but solid enough which is all you can expect from a fourth choice. Manc or not, he pulls on the Arsenal shirt now

Song 6 - Can't make a pass to save his life, but was ok otherwise.

Ridiculous comment! Song made 2 perfect defense splitting passes that Eduardo should have finished plus took over Cesc's play-making role while still performing his defensive responsibilities. What were you watching?

I watched him botch loads of short passes, as he has been doing for a while. Sure, those two passes were great, but he also lost us the ball quite a few times. He has the ability, but it seems he frequently looses focus when making short passes.

 

[asajoseph]

I think the key is focus with Song. In terms of technique, I don't think there's really anything that he lacks.

 

[Segway]

Song drifted in an out of the game and didn't dominate as much as he should have. He wasn't there to pick up the loose balls and Burnley capitalized which resulted in our problems with regaining possession. It was probably his worst game of the season.
