Arsenal 0 - 0 Chelsea: That was a bit rubbish, wasn't it?

Ok now we can enjoy the 1 point, Spurs lost.

I think you've mentioned Ramsey and his 'lack of confidence' in our section before.... No offense but I think you are completely off the mark. Confidence or lack thereof isn't the issue, he takes extremely too long to make decisions on the ball and worse yet, he frequently attempts pointless tricks that have a success rate of 2%.

and if you think he'll be a DLP for us, I doubt it. We have plenty of guys for that role already and even if he were performing better that's not what we need him for.

We defended really well, our this back 4 is amazing and gibbs was fantastic today. But Koscielny MOTM. Easily.

Our midfield wasnt clicking at all. Rosicky was ill, couldnt play more than 50 mins. Song was garbage. Ramsey was really good in the 2nd half, not that much in the 1st.

Theo was ok, Ox was average, or shit. Rvp was really poor.

our subs were excellent. Diaby brought the missing factor in midfield when he came on. Gervinho was really good and santos was great as well

Not a "bad" result and things still in our hands. need to win away at stoke and then its ours to lose

what baffles me about OX is that he played pretty well and was fairly consistent for Southampton when he did play.

why all of a sudden, inconsistency at Arsenal?

it's not like he's getting consistent game time. he had run of starts on the left wing, and clearly was an impact player. now wenger thinks he needs to baby him and not use him frequently (not that he's wrong). recently he hasnt been a regular and the sub appearances he's made have been pretty late in games, and some of those sub apps have come in central midfield.

i think it's a little unreasonable to expect him to beast every single time out there, when he isnt certain if he'll even be playing, let alone not knowing where he'll play.

Song Rosicky and Ramsey all deserve 5, lost the ball so many times from over dribbling, lack of decision making and passes straight to the Chelsea midfielders put the defenders under constant pressure.

Walcott and Ox did pretty much nothing, Walcotts delivery from set pieces was decent.

RVP missed some chances and got greedy when he could of easily cut the ball back.

Defence did very well.

that's it when u have GREAT defenders , average midfielders ! n "unlucky" or (left-handed) footed :study: Striker ......poor performance in general !

I disagree, there is a reason why you bought him and why he was regarded as a big talent. And to me it's no coincidence Ramseys best games have came from DLP-position. Also, alot of the Arsenal fans are sending death threats to him, of course his confidence is on a low. He wasn't terrible at the start of the season ffs...

On top of that, he had 97% pass completion from a DLP position... And his midfield partner was shit (Song). He is always scapegoated even if he is playing ok. He is a great player, if you guys would stop treating him like shit and let him try to play his natural game I've no doubt he will actually be a good player then.
