Blame ourselves, but what planet?

It is only really productive to blame ourselves. Despite the fact that there should never have been enough time added for Sunderland to score, we could have cleared the ball, we could have slotted the penalty home, we could have kept eleven men on the field.

Still Dowd was awful, soft free kicks for Sunderland time in time out without any reciprocation. The added time and the harsh yellows. Still, we shouldn't have given him the chance to wreck our day. Is now the time for Gibbs to force his way into the side I wonder?

Apologies for the short nature of the post, work sees me rather busy this weekend unfortunately.

Dowd may be a gay wanker but why Wenger thinks he can still slot Denilson in place of Song, or Rosicky/Nasri/Ramsey in place of Fab God only knows. Denilson was responsible for that goal, no one else. Like the last two seasons, without Fab and Song on the field at the same time, we will go nowhere–AGAIN, ffs!

Gibbs 100%! Clichy again was losing the ball in critical areas and looks a real weak link at the back.

Rosicky should NEVER have taken the penalty. WHY DID HE? He has never taken one before and Nasri & Chamakh have.

Fcuking hell, do you gooners always blame the referee for your own lack of quality? First of all you were awful all game and didn't deserve to win and secondly home teams always get a bit more from refs. Don't bother denying you never get any as last week was just one example of many. Lastly, it was just 15 seconds after the 4 minutes. You Arsenal fools are so aware of what is a red card then perhaps you need to make yourselves aware that the board indicates a MINIMUM of 4 minutes added time. Whinging gits.

Oops meant Kos not Denilson, as Bent was behind him for that goal.

Typical fucking Arsenal. How many times have we done that over the last few years huh??? That is why we will not be champions. You can sit here and call me a plastic fan all you want but if you can't grind out 1-0 victories you are not worthy of holding up the trophy...Period.

It's not surprising given how new our defense is in terms of new players/partnerships etc.

The back four were in poor shape as that final ball was tossed in, it's hard to blame individuals, it was more poor defensive play as a unit.
