I hope wenger has seen our january fixtures. I got a heart attack when i saw that, if we keep on dropping points like this then are going to pay for it :cry:
Yep. In that kind of circumstances, anybody who takes that and misses it is going to get flamed badly. Can you imagine how much hatred Giroud or Arshavin is going to get if they takes this and misses considering they are already not too favourable amongst Arsenal fans currently.Mastadon said:Don't see anything wrong with Arteta taking our penalty. There is a pecking order and he's on top of the pile obviously he has to take it. If Giroud had taken it and missed people would go going nuts asking why our designated penalty taker didnt take it.

MaestroCesc said:I want to see Ox have a chance at penalties, i have seen videos of him and he is very good, plus you can see the way he strikes the ball and how accurate he is, he would be good. I remember him saying something about was going to take penalty vs Cov but Giroud took the ball and missed. He booted the ball at FT yesterday which implied he would have scored it.
Areta made it way too obvious where he was going, plus there wasnt much power at all. As soon as we got it i knew we would miss.
But yes the penalty is pretty irrelevant although we must be the only big team who can miss a pen in injury time. The biggest concern is the defending and the performance
