That shit's not even allowed in rugby
My thoughts exactly.

Very impressed from what I saw in the second half from Arsenal.
Arsenal looked in complete control. Could maybe should have won it at the end there if Gervinho had used his big head.
Good day for United.

Arse look pretty damn good. Gervinho needs to work on his finishing like a motherfucker tho

I would say that should have been a red for Garcia but it would be rescinded on appeal. Terrible though you can't do that.
Well we are still unbeaten and Arsenal have been on fire so far this season so I'm thankful for a point.
But last season we beat them at our place and if we are using that as a barometer we need to improve!
Still not out of 2nd gear yet and hopefully we do it soon or we will have no chance of defending our title!
Last season we romped 5-1 at White Hart Lane, we couldn't do that right now though.

How did Julio Cesar end up at QPR?
Thank fuck we won that. Below par to say the least.

That'll do. Shite first half much better second but QPR played well. They bought some good players and they fought hard today.
I can't remember the last time we came back to win.
When you consider that we had no BAE, Naughton, Parker or Ade I think the second half was decent. Caulker is a beast at corners, great for him to cause the OG today.

Tough game today, all in all I'm happy with the point.
Tevez also got beat by a smaller player trying to grab a pass which surprised me since Tevez is huge.

Dzeko looked so sad coming off
Huge?
he's 5 foot 7.
Dzeko looked so sad coming off
To be honest, I'd rather see Dzeko leave then just get played willy nilly, he seems a genuine nice guy and he just wants to play.
We saw him score the other week, we saw him score at Madrid, he put himself about today and didn't deserve to be took off. Aguero looked a bit tired and he'd have been best to take off.
Biggest surprise for me was just how much Jenkinson bossed the right side; I wonder how the game would have panned out if we had someone a bit more incisive like Theo or Oxlade-Chamberlain on the right with him to overlap his runs... defensively solid and provided some great balls in from the right side.
I'm still in shock that Jenkinson is not only not complete shit, but actually developing into a good player.
missed a really good chance, sent two half-chances far off target. Wenger plays him to get behind defenders, but you can't really do that when you're facing a team that sits deep (as City did after they scored) and so he was woefully ineffective for the second half. The moment Giroud came on, we played more direct and that opened up all kinds of space for Cazorla and other players in the box (which eventually lead to the goal)

I didn't think he was terrible but he was over-doing things alot as usual. He was creating trouble down the left side though.
Definitely should have done better at the end. Could have slipped his team-mate in too for a simple finish.
He's looked really good this season.
Been liking his performances this whole season. He chose 25 because of Kanu and his family have been Arsenal fans for decades. Love him.
2 Years ago he was with Charlton.. and now starting for Arsenal in the Premier League.
I meant huge as in weight and such. He shouldn't be pushed off the ball too easily even if he is short.
I'd done enough shit flipping prior to the game, I'd have been dormant.
How much was it?
It hurts to watch again.
:lol

Lol. It's like the ball rolls over a Mario Kart boost pad.
Shame as well, against Southampton for his goal he took a good first touch and then rifled it in.
I think if he is given a run in the side though he'll get better, the problem is though that another African Cup of Nations is looming so he'll go there and then be completely worn out during the run in.
YOU GOT BOOST POWER!
