Shame we didn't win last night but overall a great result. We had a free kick just after we went 1 up, when Willian whipped it in and Luiz was inches away from prodding it in for 0-2. I think that would have been game over.
Poor pen from Costa. I remember the one he took for Athletico against us down the Matthew Harding end, when he blasted into the top corner. 2 keepers couldn't have saved it!
I'll take a point against Ar5e too.

That was a humiliation. And to think back in the day I used to be scared of Arsenal, when they had black and white hooped socks and more recently the Viera era. Now they're a spineless pathetic bunch of no hopers. Can't understand why we still charge category A prices for them.
It's just what they do at this time of the year.Back from the match. They were awful which meant we just had to be fairly average to win comfortably. Sanchez, who I really rate, looked like a fan who'd won a competition to play. Dreadful. Ozil (who is overrated anyway) was rubbish. And secret agent Cech did the business!
Oxtail Chamberpot was the only one of their lot who seemed to give a damn. Very odd considering a win for them would have narrowed the gap to an assailable 6 points.

I want to see the first goal on TV tonight. From where I was (East Lower) it looked like Alonso fouled Ballerina going for the header. Was relieved it was allowed.

Just back from the game myself, via the pub for a few celebratory beers. Good atmosphere today, particularly after Hazard scored the second. Good solid performance I thought, with Arsenal rarely looking like troubling us.
Their fans were very quiet after the first goal, so it was left to the home fans to sing, "Arsene Venger, we want you to stay...'

Definite foul for the first goal, but there's no way the Arsenal defenders of the recent past would have allowed themselves to be fouled in that situation, and then hope the ref has seen it. Adams, Bould, Keown all would have got to that ball as if their life depended on it.
As a team they have far too many pretty boys who can really play, and no one whose job it is to stop the other team from playing.
