Still think Jenkinson misplaces too many passes in his own third, he is definitely improving though. We shouldn't get too carried away after this result though, 2 own goals and a set piece.
So the old cliche about a team losing their best player and becoming a better team, no? I guess we will find out in a week.
@Macan i meant
@Completely agree about Gibbs and Jenkinson. Arsenal have a solid defence now for once.
@Thypot I THINK THE TEAM IS PLAYING MORE DIRECT NOW WHICH IS STH PPL WANTED TO SEE FOR A LONG TIME. TRUE EVERYONE LIKES HAVING POSSESION BUT WHAT MATTERS THE MOST IS THE RESULT.
@Thypot Because it IS our style of play))) We have an advantage, taking the lead, and then... OMG WTF?! Why they play better than us?!... After that - nervous atmosphere, salvation goal, heroism, etc. Good old Arsenal, love them.
So happy with Gibbs and Jenkinson performance so far this season. Too bad Szczesny made a blunder in this game, should've been the 4th consecutive clean sheet.
Beautiful display. But I noticed something "strange": we didn't keep much possession. Is it because we lead by 4-1 after the first-half, or because our style of play is changing? I hope we will continue to have possession in the future; that is the key of success.
Gunners are playing some beautiful football
I guess Wenger listened to LessBlues, Gillet_R, and spuds
Agree with lessblues, coquelin would be a much better shout for that role than Ramsey, they need a combative midfielder alongside arteta, not a ball player.
Ramsey is more attacking and similar to Diaby (kind of box to box) while Coquelin is bit too defensive for this game. I just hope Ramsey doesn't play like a dog.
Will Wenger play Coquelin in the place of Ramsey (please)? I like Arsenal bossing midfield, not (sadly) athletically awkward Ramsey plying his trade there.
Believe me Gunners will win the title this year!
Another Arsenal clean sheet
