Arsenal Post Match

[Alex]

Diving doesnt bother me either. We would all be pretty big hypocrites if we said it did with the amount of diving Luis does.

Its an art form, I do like it if a player can deceive the ref. Obviously its annoying to get done though.

[Sarb]

It wasn't the dive that bothered me, everyone does it these days. It was his reaction afterwards. He went mental, as if he'd been chopped in half. What a ******. Just admit you made a tit of yourself and carry on with the game you bellend.

Yep. His reaction when he got booked was ridiculous. He knows he took a dive.

On another note, I think Walcott comes across a right bellend when he celebrates a goal. He makes out he is the world's best striker or something. Frankly he has only started to perform consistently this season

Last week was some absurd 'signing a contract' celebration. This week it's something on his boot. Fanny

[Alex]

What is wrong with a player celebrating? Especially after scoring a goal to go level again.

In general he seems like a nice enough lad, but he does seem a horrible cocky little **** when he celebrates.

True

Still, I couldn't help imagining him on our right wing last night. I was nervous every time he got the ball. Wilshere is class unfortunately..

Nothing

But he took about a year to sign his contract and he has hardly scored consistently until this season so I don't get the polishing his boot or whatever he was doing

I much prefer Gerrard's celebration when he rifled in the free-kick against Pompey at Anfield and reeled away saying "I'm the f*cking Man". He actually was and he knew it. Pity they robbed a draw off us though

Yeah. He gets a lot of stick off Arsenal fans during the game. Not sure why he stayed there in all honesty

Wilshere is going to be a top class player. Pity for Arsenal fans, he will be surrounded by utter average players though

[el matador]

We really could have done with those three points from last night.

Two nil up away at emirates you expect to close the game down but were not good enough to see games out.

If we had won last night it may have set us up for a big finish to the season. City next and that's not going to be easy.

I'm so disappointed three points in our grasp and we let it go

Wow. I don't see deception as a welcome addition to the artistry of footbal tbh.

[Alex]

Really? Its not really a recent addition is it? Its been going on for years. There is so much more wrong with the game than diving. It is a skill, being able to go down and make it look like a foul. Ive never really had a problem with it at all. The only ones I have problems with is as Pablo said when the player reacts badly when they get caught out.

[dom9]

Well, I'm looking at it as a point gained. We could have easily lost that after the second goal was conceded. We're still in the hunt. And the tams above us will certainly drop a lot more points.

[Vermilion]

What about players dropping the shoulder..making an opponent think your going one way..when you're really going to go completely the opposite side ?

I see your point mate, definitely.

But to chuck away a two goal lead is galling. Really ****ing annoying.
