Still, it could be worse, it could easily be double the 4-0 Liverpool are winning by at half time.

Atrocious defending, poor possession, giving the ball away cheaply, no cover anywhere, it's just been a stroll for the scousers. Wasn't Wenger aware that Liverpool usually start with all guns blazing? They have brushed Arsenal aside and it's all been very easy for them!

I predict Arsenal will draw the 2nd half.
Good prediction

We were dreadful, Liverpool were excellent.

That's all I can say really. :(

Wot, no mention of Yernited!?

Okay, I'll have a go, with Van Persie on the park with Rooney, Carrick and Mata, it was more about omissions and tactics.

So Mr. Moyes, what's the point of spending all that money on the gifted Mata when the only tactic was to get the ball wide and cross it. Which Utd did ad infinitum and to little or no effect? Where were the one-two's, the intelligent use of the ball and running off it?

It was like watching an old Division 1 game of 20 years ago. It was from the ark and it felt like it to watch. It's a tactic as old and as dated as Monty Pythons dead parrot!

Utter crap.

Long may it continue! :D

Well - Sapurs may have got a win but that GD is still too low.

I read a small article that some matches may be cancelled today due to an Underground strike, true?

At present it's only the Fulham v Liverpool game on Wednesday that's in doubt.

A draw for the Arse and United today, and a win for us, will leave us a mere 7 points off the top. I see a late charge for the title coming... :wink:




...aaaannd back to reality. I've got a bad feeling about the Newcastle game. They've had a really poor run recently and I expect them to come out all guns blazing for this one. Their ground has not been our friend in recent years either. One can only wait and hope.

Think that we should win if we can get a shot on target and that's a big if. They have many players out!

Surprise, we had a few shots on target and a few went in. Nice result at the Emirates but no so nice at the cottage. Keep plugging away. COYS
