Now i know there is some sort of conspiracy against our players. 3 and 4's for Fabianski? Two goals that he couldn't have saved, two good saves in the first half and really good distribution, he was also calm under pressure which is rare and he had Squillaci and Djourou in front of him for the majority of the game.

No, he wasn't excellent, but he wasn't that poor, Szczesny got higher ratings against AC, after being at fault for the first goal, and conceding 4 goals :dizzy:

I can well see Diaby scoring a hat trick and getting 1's and 2's :grin:

Weren't you expecting these ratings GunnGunn ;) . I knew it when i saw Fabianski's name on the team sheet even before he had kicked a ball that he was not going to be getting more than 5 points . Fabianski actually did enough to put the player off for him to scuff his shot to the post . Had AOC not got caught in an unfortunate position it would not have gone in. I am not blaming AOC for the OG but Fabianski had nothing to do with it or the first goal where it took an unfortunate deflection off Squilaci. His distribution and performance in general was above average if not excellent. As i have always said some players are fans darlings who can do nothing wrong while the others can never impress the fans no matter what they do.

Fabianski was his usual shaky, clownish self. Made a few trademark flaps and was pathetic for their second goal. I don't remember him making a single save let alone 2 good ones and he came out and was lost in no mans land a few times as well. He terrifies everyone around him.

What did he do to earn more than a 3?

There's no conspiracy against him, he's just shit. Chez has been equally as shit recently and his scores show that people realise that.

Fabianski could of done better with the second goal, when a ball goes underneath you and beats you at your near post you know you haven't had your best of games.
Follow me on twitter @JordanLovesey!

The only proven winner in red and white at this club? Arsene Wenger. Sack the board.

I think 5/6 is a very fair rating for Fabianski, and before anyone talks about the second goal, there was nothing Fabianski could do at that angle, and he wasn't actually beaten at his near post, the ball hit the post, and was knocked in by our own player.

Our defence was nearly entirely to blame, it was a disgrace yesterday.

I only saw the second half of this game but from what i saw our defence was worse against AC than against Sunderland.
