Did Jagielka catch Giroud as he went to shoot just before Ozil scored?
We were sloppy with our passing last night, lots of misplaced and mistimed passes.
Lukaku should of used his right foot and he might have caused a few problems, instead he kept coming inside on his favoured left and Kos and Mert dealt with him superbly. A really strong defensive partnership between those 2.
Gibbs needed to be challenge Deulofeu, he had Rosicky who could cover him but his stance was almost like he was trying to block a cross from wide right. I find he doesn't normally block them well and seems to turn his body in a way that opens up space. That said, it was a really good strike from Deulofeu and Gibbs' offensive ability opened up some opportunities for us. His pace was required to counter Coleman and Mirallas but I wonder if, when both Monreal and Gibbs are on the field, whether we should try to let Gibbs play that more advanced role that Monreal is taking when he has been brought on.
Anyway a good game that probably deserved a draw on the balance of play.
