    At halftime I fear for this thread if we lose here.

    A win and everything's great, Wenger's vindicated, we're top.

    A loss and it's same old same old Arsenal, we'll never win anything, Wenger out.

    We are one nil down, I'd worry more about the game than thread

    Would be nice if Sanchez could offer us some consistency this season.

    In fairness we have offered very little so far.
    Did we have a shot at goal?

    No urgency in the team. Some of them not putting a lot into it at all.
    Hope Wenger reads the riot act at h/t.

    I don't think we're that awful. Alexis isn't his normal self (so far), and we could really do with Walcott for games like this.

    Very strange performance nobody running and lots of loose passes.

    You half to hope it's a game of two halfs with the next one ours

    Cech went down very easily there. It's not like Kane chipped it over him....its about 6 inches off the ground. It's not in the corner either....straight down the middle.

    No pressing the ball carrier, Mertesacker marking nothing and Koscielny not going with his man and trying to play offside....followed by poor goalkeeping.

    Poor all round.

    One, to their five.

    Need to come out firing here. It's this kind of games that make or break a title bid.

    It's worrying that out system collapses without Ramsey

    He plays as a 3rd midfielder

    Zero attacking options off the bench is worrying.

    We can't blame tiredness after mid week game as they played Thursday night.

    Big 45 minutes coming. Still confident we'll pull it together.

    I think any criticism of Cech on the goal is being a bit harsh. Kane couldn't miss, can never blame your keeper when the defense leaves you that exposed. Expecting a much better second half from our team!

    The striker should score a 1v1. No doubting that. Wasnt Cechs fault for the goal. But its still really poor goalkeeping. The way he collapsed was very poor. You are supposed to make yourself big, not shrink. Kanes finish wasnt exactly buried.

    I've been saying for awhile how poor our defence is when they come up against speedy attackers. Lucky again there.

    Playing a high line does not suit Per.

    We look jaded. Midweek game not really an excuse as we didnt exactly push ourselves and Spurs have a day less rest. Still time, we can but hope...
