Match Thread Vs Arsenal

Younes won absolutely everything in the air and his positional/covering play was exceptional. If it wasn't for the fact that Parker had an awesome game then he'd be my MOM.
Walker had his best game in the Lillywhite too, he was as good as Disco who was excellent.
Modric, whilst not having a stinker, had a relatively poor game for him. I reckon he lost possession of the ball more times in this game than in all of the previous games, this season, combined.
Adabad battled all day with Song, without too much change. Yet still made an important contribution with setting up VDV, who I thought was probably the weakest link in the game.
Defoe, I thought, was good without being exceptional. He put himself about everywhere from our 18 yard box to theirs.
Sandro's addition was the game changer. His run and cross set up Modric and led to Walker's goal whilst his energy, added to Parkers, won the battle in the middle. It helped that Ramsay was bobbins though and that Coquelin was moved to CH as he was quality.

All in all it was an excellent result as I really don't think we ever got into top gear and we were still the better side.

I was also stunned to see a so called Spuds fan was outed on Twitter yesterday for a series of posts on Facebook and Twitter to Jack Wilshere and his girlfriend to the effect that he hoped their week old baby would die a cot death - name of Crispin

It is not often I am stunned - but I was stunned

They have seemed almost humble, which has been a refreshing change from the usual superiority complex they seem to have, and have also been willing to discuss the match on it's merits and not just through red & white eyes. . . . . .

Well you've obviously got fairer minded gooner folk round your way than here in North London where I am Vis ....All Ive heard is VDV handball and their team's own deficiencies... It's true that they're not what they were, but I've hardly heard a mention that we're a lot stronger than what we were back in the days when Scumball crossed over to the dark side...

We've beaten them three times and drawn one in the last four games and a seasonal double at the Emirates awaits
