Pure shite defensively from both teams but what a game. RVP can't stop scoring. Walcott had his best game in a long time. Ramsey is slowly growing into his role and he is a big reason why we have had such a good run since our woeful start. Over the first couple of months he didn't look capable of being a starting mid but now he is delivering and the team is benefiting big time.

Those subsitutions were baffling. Ramsey is going great being a lot more experimental. RVP crucial goals though none of real difficulty none the less he gets into the right positions to get the goals unlike chamack. Still think santos is an upgrade on clichy just needs to get fit. Also aussie gun i believe gervinho is the reason for our better form but ramsey still contributing to that:thumbsu:

Great result and am very happy with how Ramsey is playing especially with some of the abuse that was going around after the Spurs game.

I thought Kos was very good saved so many scoring opportunities.

Theo is always good in games when teams dont park the bus.

Yeah, Kos was also very good.

Woeful performance defensively from both teams too as mentioned. Definitely not one of Petr Cech's better days.

Love that Terry slipped over. Think it's hilarious.

Yeah gotta love the irony of terry slipping over, after the week he's had! That was the funniest moment amongst some comical defending from both teams

Per was suspect today. Djourou and santos' first halves were woeful, but tuned it right around in the second. 4 goals in a half t the bridge. Wow what a result.

Jumped off the couch when RvP scored the hat trick (which was somewhat painful as I've just had a knee reconstruction) however it was worth it. What a champion he is for us

Why did Arteta leave the post to walk to the back of the net.

You can see that Szczesny does not trust the defense at set pieces. It almost meant a second goal for Mata.

The ball was being racist to Terry. :thumbsu:

Happy we won in the manner that we did, scoring 5, but gee... I cringe every time we have to deal with a set piece. Like every Ar5-3nal supporter obviously... Mertesacker's markingnfor that second goal was poor.

West Brom next week at the Emirates. Hopefully we can get revenge for 2-3.

Yes when the euphoria subsides from this win, we can't overlook the fact tat at times (especially set pieces) our defense is shambolic

not sure how long Gibbs is out for but surly comes straight back in

then at Xmas time the boss has to put his hands in the pockets

Who should be the back four now that vermaleans back?

I would have:

Kos-per-verm-santos

Would definately help with set peices though with per his just there to stop the bigger blokes being able to jump over the likes of kos- seriously he doesnt win many headers btw i personally love kos you just no his going to give you 100%.

Anyone else think they had the better deal from the refs? also if those two onsides against blackburn had of been correctly called offside that would put us above liverpool wouldnt it not. Come to think of it were been screwed over heaps by the refs.
