Have we had a pen since Eduardo's dive?

said that to IMF yesterday and don't expect one anytime soon either, i'm sure Vela was fouled in the box

we won't get a penalty all season its a joke! We've had more than one stone waller this season the worse was the fletcher one on Arshavin

[SE13]

If the penalty was the only chance we had all game, then maybe I'd be annoyed. But let's be honest, again the game should have been out of reach with better passing and more clinical finishing.

we all know that but don't you think ever since Eddie took a tumble we've had every penalty shout turned down

And unless Arsene shouts and moans about it and get his winghing wenger tag back; we won't win any penalties.

Cost us 3 points in Europe away to Alkmar when Vela was mowed down.

Then I can think of 3 other penalties we haven't got which have all been in the league. 2 of them would've made a difference in my opinion, 1 of them v Sunderland. F*cking joke.

BTW Smooth; told you that fat c*nt Wiley was a chump and a sh*t ref! lol

[Joncheff]

Song was impressive, its been great watching him mature. It was just one of those nights and Im confident we'll bounce back well.

[Rockin' Robin]

Still gutted about our defeat yesterday, but cheered myself up by watching us beat the yids 3-0 last month. Maybe a few of you's should do the same.

Still its a marathon not a race & those above us will still drop points along the way.

Haha I did that! Partly because my mum, the Sp*rs fan , was milking the weekend's results, so I put the 3-0 game on

I am 100% sure if that was Man u or Chelscum it would have been awarded.. Anyway, Lets just beat Chelscum.. I think it could be a make or break game.. We simply must win at all costs.. I hope the players see it that way..

[She_Gunner_Wales]

You mean its a marathon not a sprint

No i meant a race. You can look back to well over 3 maybe even 4yrs ago (or since the last forum upgrade) and see & even quote me back, this is a term ive used for donkeys years.

Dear Supporter,

I was asked after Saturday's game whether we missed Robin van Persie but I don't think we can blame that for our 1-0 defeat.

We lost a game where we can only fault ourselves because we didn't score, some players were not at their best and we gave a goal away on the only situation where Sunderland could score - on a set piece.

I believe it's more down to the fact that we made a big mistake on their corner because the game was there for the taking in the last 20 minutes. But of course, when you're behind, it makes it more difficult.

Going forward we lacked sharpness and desire to go behind the defenders. We had chosen the easy part of the game, that is to always come to the ball and not to be exposed. But in football, if you want to score goals, you have to go behind the defenders.

I didn't feel really under threat from Sunderland and if you look at what they created on Saturday you would be surprised. If you take a distance and you watch this game again, emotions away from the game, you will be surprised how little they created. But they took their chance because in some way they wanted it more than us.

Sunderland were aggressive but you expect that. I think that they tried to stop us from playing, sometimes on the fringes of the rule, but that's part of the game.

We are eight points behind Chelsea now but we have a game in hand. I didn't expect them to drop points against Wolves at all. It's very different when you have an international break and then play away from home. I feel there's a massive difference. If we had played Sunderland at home, we would have won the game.

It's important to win our next game on Tuesday night. We must forget about Chelsea until we have played Standard Liege.

Thanks for your continued support.

"If we had played Sunderland at home, we would have won the game". Not my words, this is a quote from Arsenes email to us supporters, sums it up in one , we need to start playing away from home if we want to win the league , all our points dropped this season have all been away from the Emirates.
