Aston Villa had possession in our half.

And that’s all they needed. Our only defense appears to have been our offense.

Yeah, I mean that they only needed it to happen once per goal.

We played all game long in their half, but as soon as the defense faced a challenge it folded.

No, no it's not.

Both because the defense needs to be better, and because scoring 0 goals when we’re living around their goal for 45 minutes is unacceptable.

Bad passes from Theo, bad touches from Rosicky, RVP taken out of the attack

Combined with the complete inability to do anything with all the corners we get…well, it’s a bad recipe.

i love Vermaelen, but he’s not a good leftback.

by LouisMurphy'sLaw on Jan 29, 2012 11:50 AM EST reply actions  

No we shouldn't.

We’re not good enough. We’ve only threatened from long range, and this is the classic, the classic, come to the Emirates strategy. Counter attack, set pieces. WE NEVER FUCKING LEARN.

Sometimes it's just not your day

Or your month. Combination of lots of hard work and mediocre fundamentals and bad luck in that half. There’s got to be an easier way to score goals.

set piece conceded goal—check

i mean honestly… mertesacker winning the header alone is like seeing a halleys comet and then having it seen off the line is like having it hit by a nuke.

i'm surprised we got that

Seemed like the ball got away from Ramsey…Ref must have confused us with ManU.

by Loose Seal on Jan 29, 2012 12:14 PM EST reply actions  

He wasn’t going to get the ball, but Dunne is an idiot for that challenge. It was so late and unnecessary.

by LouisMurphy'sLaw on Jan 29, 2012 12:15 PM EST up reply actions  

It's lucky, actually, that Ramsey didn't touch well

With the ball ahead of him, Dunne gets all of Ramsey. Has to be a penalty, really

by Dr. Copp on Jan 29, 2012 12:17 PM EST up reply actions  

Yeah, bad challenge in box + ball was still alive = penalty

But, I’m so used to: bad challenge + ball still alive + Arsenal = no penalty
