This is why Giroud needed to be replaced.

Giroud won us 3 points against leicester what has lacazette done so far? Missing a Tap in against Chelsea and costing us 3 points your Memory is bad

It was not a tap in.
Its clear that you have never played football.


It is a tap in when you have an agenda.

at least Giroud did better than Ozil.


Oh right so Ozil is our striker as well as our defence? ah yes how silly of me, the way you talk is the whole team is a clone of Ozil's responsible for every aspect of an 11 man side.

Anyway I'm off because the trolls have come out to play from their caves.

It was Ozil's fault we were so shit. But lets be happy that we put in a good defensive performance against the world beating team that is - Doncaster Rovers :rofll:

Lacazette scored against Leicester and Bournemouth.

Wtf has Giroud done this season bar that goal? ....... fk all that's what.

No goals against Koln, Chelsea, Doncaster sweet fk all!!

All nice and good but at the end the points count and fact is Giroud won us those three points and lacazette has not convinced anyone yet Bar you. Giroud has also less playing time...i would not be too convinced in your case

All this moaning. It could have and should have been better, but our finishing let us down a bit. But on the positive side, Sanchez got another 90 mins, Jack looked pretty sharp to me and A few youngsters got some more game time and we did win and are in the next round. Some people are talking like we got turned over. These matches are not always as easy as you think they will be.

I dont know if it's Ozil's absence or the 343 shape but we lack creativity in the final third.

why would u even play 3-4-3 against doncaster :dontknow:

perfect chance to try a 4-3-3 or even the old 4-2-3-1 and play reiss on the wing. idiotic formation that's only good for big away games with this squad of players and our approach to football.

both. The 2 in the middle have enough to do with pressing against 3... nevermind creating - then you've only got sanchez to create anything in front 3.

awful awful decision to play this tactic.

Just back in from the game a few points:

Wilshere looked great for 60 mins hope he can return to full fitness.

Alexis was pretty poor.

I thought Mainland Niles had a very good game and I have been very critical of him at full back.

Giroud needs to stop spending so much time rolling on the floor and moaning.

Chambers very good looked a lot more composed than Holding.

Finally who'd have guessed Nelson isn't a defender.

Why sacrifice important players game time to give it to a youngster who won't come anywhere near the 1st team any time soon?

he is not important player...the club tried to get rid and he refused to leave. He cant make the team and not even the squad against chelsea and only welbecks injury opens place for him on the bench now. His time has come and gone....we want to see the kids in match like this, we will win either way. WTF will wenger learn by playing walcott in this? the fans came to see the kids and not walcott

I go to see arsenal win
We won
Man city went out to Doncaster over two legs in 2005
The season we beat them in the quarter final on penaltys
We only got to that because of the late equaliser from Gilberto
It's the cup
It's about getting in the hat

Watched the highlights

Great goal

Nelson looks shit but very early days

Doncaster had a couple of decent chances which was to be expected with Chambers playing

Chambers was solid if you'd bothered to have watched the whole game...
