Arsenal 2013- 2014

i heard that and found it pathetic....what do arsenal supporters think?

Maybe some of the boos were for United who showed little attacking intent.
We gave the ball away a lot, often through unforced errors. The pitch was heavily watered, deliberately so, nothing to do with the rain; that slowed everything down. There was a lack of coordination in our midfield almost as if they were strangers to each other. Giroud was isolated and sluggish.

It's a better result than it looks and feels at the moment. We look tired.

it would take a lot for me to ever boo the team i support
 
I don't think it's a cardinal sin to criticise or boo your own team/individual players. It doesn't detract from support, it strengthens it.
i think its a change in attitude to football that goes: just paid £60 for a ticket, entertain me. Top of the table? Doesnt matter, a nil nil draw deserves booing.

I know Man U arent having the best season, but theyre still a class side, and a nil nil draw on a wet evening is an expected result.

Ive never felt like booing my own team(s), even when things get grimey. Certainly not for a 0-0 draw against man u whilst top of the table.
 
Flamini is back for the match tomorrow.

When he plays, Arsenal score much more, they concede less and they win much more. According to Opta, the club's win percentage with Flamini in the team is 72.73%; without him, it is 50%. As an aside, he has the highest pass completion ratio of any midfielder in the Premier League, his 92.38% narrowly eclipsing Arteta in second, which speaks volumes for his reliability.

We have had much the better of it in the first half. Liverpool long ball and dirty.
Interesting to see Sanogo play for the first time, i can see him scoring.
