    Everybody's got one. TBF Santi has pulled back from some shots because he's use to getting hit.

    pretty much. I hate seeing that. especially from any of our players. It's why I despise busquets.

    Yeah, the PK was an unfortunate way to score, but I agree. This is our best start to a game in weeks. We actually look threatening in the final third and have whipped some good crosses in. Not sure if Podolski's absence has anything to do with that? I like what I'm seeing though.

    This is the Ox this team needs.

    I dunno. I think we looked similar at Everton. We've still been passing badly. Difference is Cazorla you can see had some rest. Oh, and this is the best Ox has played so far since maybe beginning of the season.

    Giroud the best header of the Wenger era? Really?

    If Giroud has to go out, please please please don't put Gervinho down the middle.

    Gary Weaver said "sometimes you need a little luck". True, but I wouldn't call it luck. I'd call it cheating. It's sad that someone so talented and positive as Cazorla has to be infected by the Spanish diving disease.

    We should've been 1-0 or 2-0 up from legitimate play in the first 20 mins where we looked really good & dangerous.

    Let's hope we an add more goals so that we don't have to win the game based on skillful embellishment.

    We have good days. We are not a terrible team, after all. And WBA has been playing above themselves to start the season. They're on their own "poor run of form".

    But as has been mentioned before, Cazorla and Arteta both got some rest. Which is why I haven't given Wenger any stick for his team selection last game.

    But as Jamooky said, let's score a couple, more-legitimate, goals to erase the dive from our memories...

    Podolski looks ridiculous in his puffy trench coat & penny.

    I think Gerv should've released the ball sooner. He waited a bit too long...

    JFW needs to finish that! If that were Gerv, we'd riot.

    You know, I think I missed the Everton game. But yeah, Ox looks great. Our wing play is much much better at getting past their back line and threading in crosses.

    I thought he looked like something out of a Tim Burton animated horror movie.

    That was almost a wonder goal by Ox... except that it missed by 10 feet. :D
