What the fark was all this. Midfield kena bully until cannot clear ball nor pass to forward. So does bloody defenders like Garbriel. Xhaka more like playing with his temper not football.

All the 4 midfielders were totally useless along with Gabriel. Even Coq did his bit a little

Rubbish match

Last 5 min only play like gangster. Should have just body them off, worst case break their leg

Gabriel only remind me of Cygan. No choice but to use.

sebab legend takde kena bayar gaji setinggi ni... i think dulu gaji dia lebih kurang 90k satu minggu kot

i agree with you over this. Bascially he wasted half of his season on the bench.

Dont know how other feels, but I don't think Sanchez best position is at central although he's been scoring. Giroud is better than Sanchez when comes to playing central distracting the back 4 and open up opponent back 4 line with his positioning and physical presence.

Somehow Sanchez playing forward is like playing Arshavin in the middle.

Ozil in nature is a type of player who just wants to attack and expecting the defensive minded players to defend and supply him with ball as playmaker.

Gabriel is almost on par as the likes of Cygan, Chambers like Senderos.

Elneny not consistent, Xhaka temperamental.

Wenger needs another Santi, that could solve the problem.

Somehow the team also lack of discipline. It's something Arsene need to look into

agree..Sanchez shouldn't spearhead the frontline like Henry did

Hard fought victory but nothing sweeter than a victory on the Boxing Day.

The game was pretty dull before Ramsey and Perez came on.

That shows the team still struggling to overcome a bus parked team.

Clearly the likes of Santi and Ramsey were missed for the past few games.

not really garbage la...at least nothing like the City game.

He actually attempted to passes and crosses a couple of good balls into the penalty box. Given West Brom tactic was heavily manmarked almost everyone, I think Ozil had trouble in creating threat with tight/ limited space after Sanchez and Giroud were so tightly squeezed.

Did actually saw Ozil avoided some defensive duties as well (i.e should be marking opponent during corner kicks, but he purposely distanced himself from it. That is a very dangerous move that can cost the team some result).

Glad to see a convincing performance.

At least we know there is only one scorpion kick, and it wasn't offside.

Was it me or anyone noticed, Sanchez was shouting for the ball almost anyone else in the team got the ball till nobody wants to pass to him towards the end of the game. He was obviously damn upset about it

Err...Instead of saying Sanchez being upset about losing and etc.

Did anyone thought of actually he didn't like Wenger to switch him to wing role?

He's been overreacting since Giroud got back.

Didn't know we got a new recruit, but it's an interesting story to tell.

Arsenal New Recruit

Looking back at this season, actually the team did played decently.

Goalkeeper?
Never a doubt on Cech

Defenders?
Mustafi was a solid addition to partner Kos. Traditionally Wenger will have his wing back to run forward to support the frontline. Gabriel only reminds me of Cygan no doubt. Although with his presence, the team kept leaking goals.
If you happened to rewind your memory back, did that not happened during the Invincibles era? Yes, it did and was even worst when Sol Campbell was out. I recalled every time when Sol is out and the team lost possession to the opponent, my mind just wen unrest with it. Nevertheless, Henry and his gang always made up the difference, where as now the front line is not as aggressive as used to be. The urge to supplement the back four arises by media and fans. If we think thoroughly, it's the frontline and midfielder that Wenger wants to reinforce.

Midfielders?
What can I say? Santi's absence was dearly missed and could cost us the league.
Xhaka is playing well but his temper and consistency is very wavery. That's the danger part.
Elneny nothing more but decent, while Coq, I always admire how much he ran and tackle to win possessions in the form of unsung hero to the team.
While it's interesting to see the flair that Iwobi brought to the team, he's an interesting youngster to watch.
The problem I would say is the wingers, the level of penetration is just not there to tear the defenders out.

Forward?
We've seen what Sanchez is capable to do in Giroud's position. While Giroud as usual, it's always enjoyable to see all his flicks and headers during match and he's been scoring.

Perez would be the next thing to watch. Straight forward skillful.

Conclusion?
If Ozil and Sanchez wants to leave, just leave while they can fetch good money.

The lesson that I've learnt for watching Arsenal past 4 seasons is that, no matter good players Wenger bought. The core of his god-sons (i.e. Theo, Ramsey, Ox) is just not performing. It's been Ozil-Sanchez, Sanchez-Ozil for most of the season, till I guess they got fed-up.

Constant consecutive injuries that leads to the inconsistencies performance of the players is that how I would like to sum the team up. That's the root of the problem. We can't afford to have players, core players to take turns to miss most of the season then expect the team to win. (Danny last season, now Santi). Wonder when is that hitting on Ozil and Sanchez.

Just realized if we won tonight, we will be second!!!
One point above spurs !!

This game almost killed me...
Bad referee and cheap opponent

This final minutes is almost equivalent to Danny final minute header to Leicester last season

Agree, but Arsene was never a great tactician from start.
He emphazises more on football philosophies than tactic.
That is sort of his weakness, when opponent play tactic against him. He can't do anything but rely so called mentality to overcome it.

Kinda expected la since you don't see Arsene bought new players.
Just sit back and enjoy the rest of the season.
The title is for Chelsea to lose now.
Second spot is good for me and a FA cup.

Come on guys.

A lost is a lost, just admit and go forward. Life move on.

This is a joke, by showing how split up are the fans to others.

Arsene leave or not, that's up to him.

For the contribution of the club and the legacy and transformation that he's given, at least he deserve somewhat called "RESPECT" from the fans.

I don't care whether Sanchez or Ozil leaves or the whole team leaves, the club will move on.

Vieira, Pires, Ljunberg, Henry and etc left the club one by one, whom we thought they were irreplaceable.
Then what happened? Aren't the club still standing?

No fans want to see all these including myself. The team should share the damn bloody responsibility and not just blast every damn fault at the manager.

Never knew that! Can include me inside ah

Just recall jack wilshere. The midfielders are a joke, I can only see ox and danny running around for the ball. The rest is like not exist on the field.

Team koyak
