Deserved nothing. I have more respect for a team that knows their limits than one that hands a win to a team like us.

Every team in this league knows that going toe to toe with Arsenal won't end well for them.

He knows Ramsey will wander too far forward from DM and if theres one team you dont do that against, its a team full of pacey runners who love the counter.

Neither team has this game under control by any stretch, we need to be cautious of their counter, its f***ing deadly


If Wenger cant coach a CM to sit back then what can he do???


As good as saying if a manager can't coach Ozil to defend...

There's a difference between what you should do,what they know they need to do, and what player does do.


Why cant a manager coach Ozil to sit back????

There's a difference between sitting back and defending btw. He doesn't need to teach Ramsey how to defend


Ramseys natural inclination is to look to do something.

You can tell me to sit, but he will inevitably find himself in position where he is going try and contribute offensively.

Move up, hold the ball longer than he should looking to make a pass, take up the wrong position. Footballers arent bots, they have the freedom to make their own decisions on the pitch, i don't believe Ramsey would be responsible enough to slot into the position and maintain his discipline throughout the game.

Because the teams we've played against half been smart enough to sit back.

West Ham did it for most of the game.
Liverpool did it for the while second half.
Chelsea didn't have to because of red cards. Same with Zagreb.

When's the last time you've seen a team allow their full backs to push up the way Leicester did today against us an not get punished for it.

Yeah why should a lately successful team full of confidence play like they are used to play even against this unbeatable Arsenal team .. these arrogant bastards that will teach them to park the bus next time and let their fans in the stadium pay for a f***ing boring match .. seriously some people here ..

Wouldn't say they deserved something out of this. They were naive, if anything.
Fantastic stuff from us today.

We scored more goals in this match than the previous 6 league games... Do you honestly think we'd have scored 5 if Leicester hadn't played so freely?

It's naive football.

Leicester fought us every second of the game. We were by by far the better team but they successfully capitalized on our mistakes.

very fun team to watch and I hope under Ranieri they can displace one of Pool, Everton or Spurs in the top 6.
