Also:

Well I'd like to know how mcleish can not see that the week link is the full backs, they both dive in and spend to much time on there arses which I have to say are large for a pro footballer unfit and untalented it's time to change ASAP

Aha, thx Leeg, I was wondering who that quote was about.

Just listened to mcliesh what fucking planet does he live on he thinks second goal hand ball and third goal not a pen he talked about chances to equalise should he noT at 2-0 be looking to stop them playing while looking for 3rd goal, he's fucking deluded Scottish c***

The facts are that it was hand ball by Walcott and Clark missed a very easy headed chance that would have made it 3 - 3

Yep a smart manager would have set the team up for the oncoming onslaught, a smart manager would have done something at half time, he didnt, we lost

[olaftab]

There We Are Than Eck. Use the fist letters for your title Mr McLeish. It's going to be a long journey back.

The second goal wasn't a hand ball and the third was a penalty.

As I said earlier, i'd have taken Keane or Gabby off at HT and stuck another proper midfielder in there to keep things tight. We didn't need an attacking 4 when 2 up away from home.

[dr.chekov]

I'm really not sure what he could have done at H/T to change what happened.

[JJ-AV]

Change of manager for me. Sooner, rather than later, so we've got maximum time to prepare for the Summer.

[Can Gana Be Bettered!?!?]

Can't believe nobody tackled Walcott.

That is all.

I was wondering at HT if he would be brave enough to change it, they booed arse off at HT, that would have said, keep them out for 15 mins and the game is ours,

It's not just the manager, it's the entire philosophy and approach of the club. Unless that changes we are stuffed.

[Chris Harte]

Was seriously irritated by ESPN's coverage today.

Continual shots of various Arsenal banners around the ground.

A Villa chance in the first half was a "scare" for Arsenal. The whole thing felt so pro-Arse.

[Nev]

They should win. It's the natural order and ESPN were over the moon about it, they're shitting it about viewing figures.

Even at 2-0 up we weren't good enough. The manager isn't good enough and neither are the players. We all know it, we just have hope. And my god did I have hope at HT.

I won't criticise the effort,but the quality is sorely lacking.
