AndersonBLUE 819 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 we seem to be doing better against smaller teams, think we are turning a corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted September 19, 2015 Author Share Posted September 19, 2015 It wasn't a swash-buckling or free-flowing performance but it was arguably our best showing of the season. Solid defensively as a unit (there was more urgency, bite, competitiveness than we've seen) but offensively, we still looked sloppy. Passed way too much when we really should have produced more shots. That said, to get the 3 points and first league clean sheet in 9 matches(!) today can only help to boost confidence.

iseah100 5,612 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Yes. Because its not a Cup Final or something like that. I'm no the typical guy who will only see the bad things after a bad result. Result was good, football was crap. Nothing will change my view about the game today. The good side is Arsenal is do bad, it might not be that difficult to end the season in top 4, after all.Team don't need a confidence boost, it needs a quality boost.Haterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diceflix 207 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 LoL Costa is a pure definition of WTF ?We played well today, many chances created yet wasted, like Pedro did, but hey even Brana has a quite decent game today.And i fucking love it that Arsenal get another butthurt result against us. Purrrfect ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZOS 580 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 motm, our dear cunt, beautiful thug ....DIEGO freaking COSTA!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,916 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Thought we were even BETTER when it was 11v11 so Arsenal fans can stop moaning.Hazard, Cesc, and Iva have finally awoken. Diego, however, was shocking on the ball. His work rate is phenomenal but his football was terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dUMB 189 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Great starts for the weekend. Was Sanchez and Ozil playing?? I want to notice Pedro is becoming a very key players for us. His runs are amazing.Yes, I agree, but he lost a lot of balls today in the final third. Like he couldn't decide whether to shoot or to pass on and while thinking he loses the ball.

Cosmin 2,484 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I don't like Costa at all. Not because he is a twat (which he clearly is, yet sometimes he is a useful twat), but because he is absolutely CLUELESS when he has the ball. He is a poacher, he should be denied to leave the opponent's box when we are attacking. Every 1 v 1 duel, he loses the ball. His control is a disaster. I hope he gets a 3-4 matches ban, since Mourinho doesn't seem to be ready to drop him. Nevertheless, good display today. Pedro, Oscar and Hazard had a good day, as well as Cahill. But personally, I love Zouma. Such a beast! MoTM for me. P.S.: doesn anyone have a gif of that penalty that was not given to us in the first half?

ulvhedin 526 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Ivanovic was holding himself back, not bombarding carelessly forward (only when he had really much time and space). However he lost ball at least dangerously once in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vytis33 1,272 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Ivan, Cesc and Hazard all looked better today. Very encouraging. Squad looked dangerous offensively even before the sending offs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I disagree with those who say the football produced was bad. I saw a different Chelsea in this game especially before Gabriel's red card. Our passing was very good, movement and link-up play also very neat. Fabregas is my MOTM. On the Costa v Gabrial and Koscielny deal:Let's put it simple, if Mike Dean saw Costa's swing at Kos, he should be off which makes the yellow ridiculous. If he didn't see, he should do nothing, Costa will probably get suspended after the match. Gabriel's yellow was deserved, and the red card as well. Cazorla red was also 100% deserved. All in all, the ref handled the incident horribly wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellzfresh 7,229 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Side note though, how often was Walcott offside? Zouma and Cahill marshalled the defence well, I must say. Arsenal didn't really threaten once.Fast defenders, I've been saying it since last season, we have been suffering for so long compared to other big teams.

didierforever 7,349 Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 shit performance, great result. bego - barely tested and when did, he was upto the mark.iva - good performance. stuck close to sanchez and fouled him on every occasion that he looked to be turning. decent performance but we cant have 2 defensive full backs playing against the likes of whu, wba, stoke, etc etc. and when the winger is running at him, he looks poor.zouma - brilliant display and that tackle... wow... good goal too.GC - another brilliant performance except for when he lost the ball and the confusion between him and zouma.azpi - azpi-esque performance. enough said.matic - quite good. broke a lot of arsenal's attacks. but too slow in possesion.cesc - someone told me he was a "world class" passer. he is so shit, i actually cant believe he is one of the first names on the team sheet considering the fact he is never dropped. how could he have not been able to play costa thru on that counter. unfucking believable. plus if its upto him. we should walk the ball into the net or something. absolutely atrocious.oscar - MOTM for me. defensively brilliant. good in attack though lost the ball a couple of times in dangerous positions. nonetheless, quite a brilliant performance.hazard - started the match so poorly. but got into the game. that shot was awesome which was saved by cech. all in all, hopefully, he gets to his best.pedro - decent. though needs to work on his shooting. costa - awful. absolutely awful. could and should have been red carded. his "link up play" was awesome again. cant count the number of times he lost the ball in brilliant positions. his "fakes" are so slow and ponderous that its almost laughable to look at. we were lucky today. nothing else. this game does not solve anything. all our problems are still there. and teams will exploit them time and again.
