    Half as confident as I was after seeing that grotesque line-up.

    At the end of the day, this team should be capable, and we have a decent bench......but is this the team you would send into a cup final?

    Sanchez Ozil & Giroud.

    That's all I'm saying.

    I'm looking forward to this.

    Same central midfield that has failed to dominate in matches recently is picked again. Very disappointed

    Baffling, really needed a shake up. Lets hope Ox contributes today, he really needs to step it up

    At least Ox will be more involved than Theo. Take away Theo's shooting and he's an even worse version of the Ox.

    Interesting that he's still not desperate enough to put Chambers in ahead of Flamini. I'm not a massive fan of Chambers, but at least you'd expect him to stay back a bit.

    It works both ways though. There are times when Flam is holding the midfield all by himself. Ramsey isn't playing well enough to be doing those risky runs.

    How can't you love Özil after watching that interview?! Such a class act :D

    Yeah, I think he would get away with it with Coq. Problem is that even when Flamini is in a good position defensively, he doesn't know how to break up the play. Now that he has pretty much eliminated his kamikaze obligatory sliding-tackle yellow card from his game, he doesn't really know how to stop a player.

    Brilliant pass from Ox to Ozil. More of that please. Flamini off now please, for that stupid yellow!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,012 ✭✭✭✭Alfred Borden


    Idiotic challenge from Flamini


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Soups123


    Could easily have seen Red for that

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    This camera angle is brutal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,031 ✭✭✭Soups123


    Typical Fcukin Arsenal they play in with their man down we win it back and put it out!!!!!!

    Seriously like that's awful


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 835 ✭✭✭SkySter


    A lot of sloppy passing and very lateral play. We're way too casual for my liking so far.

    Feels big for Ox to get a goal. Has the talent to be important in the run in
