Arsenal V Aston Villa | Premier League 23/02/2013

So, who wants to give me the low down. I missed the match

Average performance. Cazorla, Jenkinson and Nacho all playing brilliantly, Wilshere giving us the drive and desire even though it wasn't his best day, Szcz useless.

how was nacho brilliant

Didn't stop running and tackled well. Was a bit iffy in the first half I must admit but in the second he was definitely one of our best players.

And of course going to my third game this season equalled with a third win, here's hoping i'm able to see the United match .

tbf, they all probably got up and at least clapped 3/4 seconds after this picture was taken....

Indeed.

Pictures can be very misleading.

+1
I very much doubt they sat there looking miserable.

I have been looking on the replays of the goal more times... focusing on arsene after the goal. Theres no doubt the players (ox, kos and gerv) imediate reaction was not one of joy or enthusiasm. They clearlly notice the goal as everybody around them...However their reaction can be seen as relief ...maybe
It just shows the pressure on the players and the fact that they lack either the mental strength or the pure passion (jenks the exception) to try and fight their way out of the situation. Or maybe they just dont give a shit.
The first thing Ox does after seeing the goal is rearranging his blanket and getting more comfty in his seat...i could bet you he didnt get up after the goal...gerv has a short clap...watch the replays of wenger passing in front of the reserves bench

Just saw it again on MOTD and Koscielny stood up. Your right about Ox, he just adjusted his blanket.

Goonersworld should have a whip round and organise to send you to every game left this season... totally worth it

[Zedie]

Some of giroud a flicks and first time passes are nothing short of art. Imagine if he had a proper strike partner up top.

Couldn't agree more... he just lacks that deadly end product that would make him world class

[Fran Solo]

Yesterday was not Giroud's day. It was Malaga day. Cazorla with a little help from Monreal gave us the goals.

[Angelito]

Malaga combined for the second goal, but beautiful movement from Ramsey to Arteta, to Wilshere to Monreal and Monreal laid it beautifully for Cazorla. It was a wonderful team goal.

[Fran Solo]

Yeah, love it.

So, who wants to give me the low down. I missed the match

szczesny - at fault for their goal
jenkinson - let's stick to sagna
walcott - poor
wilshere - poor
giroud - tried but that's about it. poor
cazorla - carried our attack and netted twice
monreal - poor but got an assist. we miss gibbs
arteta - denilson performance
diaby - flashes of okayness but thats it

wilshere - poor

I thought he was average, but not quite poor.

arteta - denilson performance

Ah Ha! I'm not the only one that sees this! He's a quality guy so its hard to say a bad thing about him, but we need better!

Jack being poor worries me. We are already over relying on him. He needs a break.

Think you might have your I FUKIN LOVE WILSHERE goggles on mate. He showed a lack of vision multiple times and gave the ball away frequently

arteta - denilson performance

I love the guy but he is becoming a bit of a luxury player. Suppose it is down to age

Yep. Especially with basically every fan calling out for Rosicky to play

After the Spurs game, or even if we take a dominate lead during it, rest Jack, bring in Rozza or even, maybe that little Russian dude who used to play for us. Rotation is key or we risk losing him to injury again.
