Arteta's been averaging 96 passes per game this season. Must have been about 30 today. Oscar didn't let that mug breathe all afternoon.

Wot a player this kid is.

Then you had Diaby feigning injury when he knew he was in for a tough afternoon. :dead:

New Arsenal, same as the old Arsenal.

See here's the thing though....Arsenal are never going to loft perfect crosses into the middle of the box for Giroud. We aren't a great crossing team. Jenkinson has the best cross in the squad. And our shape and movement don't lend to wing play with crosses on the end. Giroud has to adapt to Arsenal, not the other way around. And for the most part he has done that....but I will say he has cost us about 7 points so far in this young season with his terrible finishing in games where he could have been the hero with chances any competent strikers would have buried. fukk man why do Arsenal always make things so difficult. Kos is fukking cursed.I hate him so much right now. And fukk Mannone too.

:rudy:

He's our best defender. If Oxlade did his job he wouldn't have to worry about Luiz while on Torres.

Wasn't Diaby subbed off last season early against a top 4 side as well? He is out for the season now probably.

Very simple game, Chelsea weren't better than Arsenal on any level really, it's just Arsenal is missing those one or two special players in the attack.

A game like this, RVP, Cesc, Henry, Pires, would've created something out of nothing, but we don't have that

Listen, I like Kos just as much as the next Arsenal fan. But let's be real, he is cursed. Dude just seems to always have an error in him. It wasn't totally his fault but got dammit he was involved.
