Arsenal 2013- 2014

Not a bad performance just a disappointing one. A comfortable win against probably the poorest team to visit us this season, even Aston Villa were better than this shower.
Our possession and passing was good, except the final ball. Well organised when we didn't have the ball. Two lovely goals. Perhaps we played within ourselves saving some energy for what will be a difficult encounter against Cardiff City at the weekend.
The result is of course important but so is the need to entertain, i would not blame a neutral from switching off from this. Marseille were to blame, showed no ambition other than to avoid a cricket score defeat.
Giroud to take the penalties in future please.

Would be great to knock Napoli out after the trouble their fans have caused.

I got given my mate's spare ticket tonight and I can say there were large parts of the game where we weren't entirely engaged. My £20 bet on 2-0 at 5-1 helped generate some interest towards the end

You have had a real good Tuesday evening.

A free ticket to the football and £100 isn't to be sniffed at!
Want to catch the regular postman tomorrow, he is a good natured Chelsea fan that delivered a parcel several years ago containing an Arsenal shirt signed by Cesc Fabregas. He sneered a bit when i excitedly told him what was in the jiffy bag. I bought a fresh basil plant in the supermarket today. I just want to wave it at him.
They (Napoli) have to come at us. We are good this season at soaking up pressure, well organised. Mertesacker was as captain commanding this evening.

Solid, professional demolition job against L'OM. More of that please and bugger the sexy football And for all the moaning about Ozil - he got another assist
"You hear rumours and after that you cannot come out in the press and say: 'This game was not regular'," Wenger said. "You must prove what you say. To come out is difficult. It is very difficult to prove it. From knowing something, feeling that it is true and after coming out publicly and saying "Look I can prove it" is the most difficult."

Whatever floats your boat.
It's going to be tough at Cardiff today, if we take all three points we go seven clear at the top.
The crowd will be loud.

Hope we don't underestimate Cardiff,pretty strong at home.....
Wow, Cardiff sitting back when they don't have the ball. We picked our way through and almost scored a screamer in the first minute.
WTF Giroud? Bizarre non offside, play to the whistle.
Gorgeous goal, great assist (Ozil) even better header, Ramsey 0-1.
Good first half from us.
Cardiff only look dangerous when they attack down our left flank, i think it's an area we are weak defensively, and at set pieces.
Our centre back pair playing superbly. Arteta having a good match as is Ramsey and Wilshere. Cazorla needs to do more. Some good runs from Giroud.
We deserve our lead. The crowd are quiet.

Ozil - 96% pass completion in the first half.
Sagna caught out of position,world class save from Szczęsny, just like Gordon Banks.
Good start to second half from us but Cardiff getting back into it, crowd getting louder.

Fabulous Flamini with a beauty of a goal 0-2. Ozil with the assist again.
Not just consistent but composed. Another three points another clean sheet. Seven point clear at the top.
I'm sure Ramsey will Man of the Match, rightly so but Arteta also had a great one.
