Why didn't Walcott just open his legs then?!

Did well to read the bounce and gambled in behind Mangala but he just dawldled on it with neither Otamendi nor Kolarov really doing anything to close him down, could've been another chance in that if he'd gone for it.

 

[Tredman]

It is the overhauling Leicester that is proving difficult. They just keep on winning.

Arsenal are the only team to give Leicester a spanking this season. They usually get better after Christmas too. Should be a good run in too.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Sterling has been a right pile of wank since he came on.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

No away goal for City in the league since September 26th.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Jesus! I knew they'd been shit away from home but I didn't realise they'd been quite that shit, that's the sort of guff you'd have expected from someone like Bournemouth after their team was decimated by injuries.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Bottlejob Navas

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Shocker.

Imagine the difference if that'd be Walcott played through in similar fashion at the other end.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

That's really sloppy from Arsenal, top finish but Ramsey's defended that situation like the man who's ended up scoring.

 

[ROVERT47]

Gotta admire that.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

City back in it. Arsenal should have been out of sight.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Guess that's why Wenger rarely plays him there when everyone's fit.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

De Bruyne looks so much better when he can play through the middle.

 

[FrankMunro-371]

All City now. I wonder why it took them 80 minutes to wake up?

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Must be so irritating for City fans to watch Yaya do bugger all for 80 minutes then decide he wants to play at the end.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

All City now. I wonder why it took them 80 minutes to wake up?

Arsenal just starting to run out of steam as much as anything.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

That's some gamble of a tackle from Giroud there!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Got it right in the end but that is not a tackle you want your striker making on 89 minutes!

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Got it right in the end but that is not a tackle you want your striker making on 89 minutes!

Especially not when they're looking as leggy as Giroud has for the last 15 minutes or so, could very easily have gone very badly.

He's done a good job for them today though, he might not be up with the very best forward but he holds it up well and he's done his fair share of dirty work tonight as well, always think Arsenal look a better side using him up top as a platform to play from rather than a pacey outlet like Welbeck or Walcott through the middle.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Right result in the end. Good game after it went 1-0.

 

[MARKakaJIM]

Should've been more comfortable for Arsenal but they held on to what they'd got.

Can't really remember a clear cut chance for City.
