shame. But I see no reason to not play Jonas instead of him and then play Santon LB. Looking at Jonas performance yesterday I would not worry too much with Santon.

Simpson-Willo-Perch-Raylor

Spurs free kick about 6 players that wanted to take it. edit: Don´t know why that was funny, but it was...

We need him back - badly - and we need him to sit really deep and only focusing at protecting Willo and Perch. He can´t go forward. Hopefully we will continue with this formation we had against WBA in the coming games and that means Tioté only needs to focusing at the defensive play and let the other players attack. But I´m worried if he is going to make it. Remember autumn? when he was due to come back for a month or something.

Perch has improved a lot. Now it´s Simpson and Willo that are our super-weak-links.

Was some "true" and funny phrases in there.

How can you compare us with Swansea as a measure how well a passing orientated football play is regarding to our hoof? Read the finance article in one of the other threads. We are way behind the "top 6" and I´m sure we are way ahead Swansea in terms of finance. Beside. We have much better players then them. And they are not that far behind us. They are closer us then we are Man City, that would be just as fair example as I sees it. Again. Our position and point tally is really good. The problem I, and many others have, is that we been rather lucky to pick up many of the points when have taken when we really doesn´t has to been. If we could try and play more of a passing game we would have more control of the games. Now we just fall back and wait for the opponent. It won´t succeed for ever. the reason that it still is in some sense is of individually performance such as Krul, Colo, Ba, Cisse, Arfa etc. BUT, Why don´t we just take control of games instead?!!! It´s not just about playing beautifully. It just as much about stopping the other team from creating chances. We have the players to do that. But we don´t have a manager that is capable/willing to do that. THAT IS THE PROBLEM.

I wonder what they was thinking when they handed out the new contract?! It wasn´t like it was ending anytime soon, and most of all, why did give him such a long contract when they knew his problems off field.

He's exactly right. We had been gash the entry half and it was no need to give them that chance. I´m actually quite embarrassed about that game and result.

give over man.

I miss Hughton

me either, 2 in his first 4 games in the premier league Because we want five in the midfield Can only agree with everyone has said above. We should go for it but at the same time play smart. The last thing we want to do though is to play it long all the time. Arsenal will have plenty of the ball anyway, so the few times we will have it we must play it smart and keep it with the team. HATEM BEN ARFA MUST START!

A 4-5-1 does not necessarily mean we will defence. I would rahter say that it is the right choice. BUT I don´t trust Pardew to play a "offensive" 4-5-1 but rather long balls all day long to an along Ba. And Raylor? Are you kidding me

Still can´t get over their victory in the CC

Barton was cheating with the corner. Don´t think it has to be mention what I think about FIFA and UEFA in technology things.

Wonder what he means with "we know how he’s going to play before a game and we like that with Alan" Hoof ball

as if other teams is reading his interview and thinking "hang on, he says that if Arsenal can lose players, so can them. Never though we had a chance before. But now, lets go"

yep

so undeserved. is this lot (red) is going through :suicide:

We were in the championship two years ago man. Totally unrealistic to hope to play this kind of fotball. Crawl before we can walk.

WOW just WOW. I´m so glad I got to watch this match (should have been offside. but who cares? they deserved it)
