I shall be interested to see all that again in the HT break, but those sending offs looked appalling decisions - and for the second penalty, Lansbury was falling to the ground well before the defender touched him.

Lansbury is a bit of a bell piece. But I'd like him in our midfield alongside Jedinak.

I quite like Forest, and would like to see them go up with us if we somehow get automatic promotion. I think we'll finish second.

I think we saw from the game against Forest that Lansbury spends his whole game cheating and trying to get people sent off, Arsenal through and through.

Also as soon as Forest took the lead, their keeper feigned injury, like he did against us.

I actually think Forest were bigger cheats than Cardiff, so hope they don't get to the playoffs.

That said I don't mind seeing Newcastle lose and the one commentator seemed to be a Newcastle fan.

De Bruyne with a Rosenthal miss then the jammy Nazi chavs equalise a couple of minutes later. ******.

Meanwhile, Motherwell 3 Celtic 3, decent game.

It's actually a very good game. It does reveal, in spite of our new optimism, the gap in quality that exists between us and the top tier teams of the PL. We'all need to invest heavily again over a couple of windows to ultimately bridge the gap. Though it will certainly help to have a better team and club chemistry when we do go up.

2-1 Chelsea courtesy of Wil.I.An. Cracking goal on the break.

I think city's problems will be solved if they make a bid for Micah Richards. And of course restore snake on the bench.
