    So stop and start this game. I wouldn't be surprised one of our players will join Gibbs on the injury table. Villa look comfortable.

    This referee is completely out of his depth. He just booked Luna for having the temerity to let Oxlade Chamberlain kick him in the chest. Great reffing. :rolleyes:

    In fairness they kicked each other and neither got the ball ;). It just shouldn't have been a yellow card or a free kick for either side.

    Sagna, Walcott and Ox limping, can our squad get any thinner? Only positives have to be ox and giroud, big second half needed, get santi and podli on!

    Good start then went downhill with the penalty. Wenger seriously needs questioning if we don't get the three points today. We have the easiest of starts to the season apart from the NLD game. Dropping points to Villa won't be making a statement.

    What a shocking ref.

    All our mids have been poor, bring on Cazorla and Pod, we'll still play crap but we'll have a better chance of scoring.

    I can see where you are coming from as this happens a lot but on this occasion, Luna pulled out of it and Oxlade Chamberlain follows through and actually raises his boot to kick him. I like Chamberlain, but that was fairly dirty and deserved atleast a yellow.

    The atmosphere here is... Simmering. From where I am the ref appears to be making a lot of mistakes. Villa defence is not great but our wide players not in the game and villa very wary of Walcott . villa dangerous going forwards, very dangerous. Is gibbs ok? Arsenal nervous, need a guy on the pitch with unshakeable confidence, Podolski is my shout. Ollie g a handful.

    Rocisky has played well too. our GK looks like he cause us a another goal. Giroud is getting stuck in.

    Gibbs is grand, just needed stitches.

    Ox, Giroud and Rosicky have been doing pretty well. rest of the midfield have been poor. Dissappointed slightly with Ramsey, doesn't look the same player without Arteta beside him.

    Cause they are playing below their standards. Anytime we go one up we back off. We need to make a statement that we mean business, in that first half we are seen the same old problems.
