take williamson off, he is totally pointless in a game like this

fuck sake

was same for us against sunderland except sunderland aren't arsenal and it took a crappy own goal for them to break us down.

Yeah hate when commentators say that. It's always quite obvious people are going for a piss or pint early and comeback again for 2nd half.

I know a lot of people aren't Jonas' biggest fans right now but fuck this is bad news.

Didnt pass us off the park as you suggest but are far better at playing the style of play that both teams played today. That's because Fat Sam has hand picked players like Nolan and Carroll whereas were trying to play the same way but with ben arfa, cabaye, cisse, ba who just are not suited to it.

0-3

To be fair we were shit in a lot of games in the first half of last season i seem to remember but we just seemed to have more about us defensively and in midfield.

Swansea are a far better team than west ham as they showed earlier in the season. The only possible plus is that they may be more open defensively.

I don't get why he needed that 8 year contract? he was already on a 5 year one? Managers need motivation that if they don't perform they could be out of a job.

Will probably blame the lack of the tiote and colocinni and playing in europe but we all know that would have made fuck all difference.

Needs a complete rethink to his tactics Pardew.

Season defining game.

This has been shockingly bad

Wonder when the last time we scored direct from a corner was?

how much fucking time has wasted this half alone

Shola on. Back to what we know best, long ball to the big man.

Agree with everyone saying Shola on for Cisse.

Starting to make sense those Carroll and Nolan comments now. Pards would prefer to have west hams line up to ours it seems with the way he sets out the team.

We're basically just like west ham except we don't have the players to play long ball like they do and we have abit of ben arfa magic thrown in now and again but the way we are playing is disgusting this season. No gameplan what's so ever apart from give it to Ben Arfa and hope he or Ba can create something out of nothing.

Can't even keep the ball against fucking west ham

Injured according to pardew in the press conference

Likely to be Cabaye-Jonas vs Diame---Noble Nolan Be interesting to see how we do as we normally struggle against 5 man midfields.

that was close from huddlestone

On that tottenham topic, I had a guy at my work (arsenal) fan going on about the "yids" and how my mate was a dirty "yid" I was going to call him out on it but then thought instead to ask if he knew what "yid" meant? He did not.
