OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 It's a very light and mobile Arsenal side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I wouldn't say scared, but there is some nerves there from some players. I don't necessarily see that as a bad thing as long as we ride that phase out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 (edited) If so it shows that they know it's an important game. Lots of crosses for the ghost of Shola at the moment... Edited December 29, 2013 by OTF Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigWalrus 0 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 We're right to be cautious, at least to begin with. Arsenal can be devastating going forward, so we need to be careful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew 4872 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Ref letting everything go for both sides so far, good to keep the game flowing but danger of this getting a little dirty in midfield considering who is playing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Mertesacker making Williamson look dexterous and mobile there. We're handling their propensity to go to ground incredibly well at the moment, backing off at the last and not being overly physical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Difficult for Santon there, we didn't pick them up from midfield. In the end he did well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14013 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 He did very well considering it was 2 on 1! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Cabaye's definitely up for it, covering plenty of ground defensively. The crowd has been good also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 He did very well considering it was 2 on 1! For sure, I was trying to say that it was worrying that it was 2 on 1. Did a horrible job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brock Manson 0 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Considering he's in at the expense of Ben Arfa, Gouff isn't doing much at all to warrant his selection today. Would like to see more from him. They're threatening but we're creating a lot down the right. Not enough bodies forward though so we're just hoping Debuchy will score a wondergoal.

Andrew 4872 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Good job the refs being lenient, that wasn't the best tackle Loved seeing it though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OTF 7496 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Sissoko had a busy but unproductive first 10 and has done little since. There's a case for an earlyish substitution bringing on Ben Arfa. Likewise for Shola. I get the feeling that Pardew is simply hoping not to concede this half to leave his options open in the second.

Andrew 4872 Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 tbh I reckon both sides have defended well hence not seeing much from Gouffran and Sissoko, same for Wilshere and Cazorla. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
