Greenlizard0 Weekend Football Thread ** spoilers ** [8 - 11th December 2012]

Norwich weren't quite as solid at the back as usual and got outplayed for lots of the game but it is still 3 points towards safety and stretches out unbeaten run to 9 in the league.
 
Up the Wednesday... err I mean on their way down. 2 goals conceded in the last 4 minutes, Tummy is going to need a hug!

As soon as Swansea got the ball and could keep it away from us it was going to be tough! We play well at controlling the ball and playing at our own speed, we simply couldn't keep up with them for a big chunk of the second half!

That being said, was a brilliant game to watch! Really need a replacement for Bunn though. Both keepers had a shocker of a game to be fair, but Bunn was constantly caught in no-man's land, and he can't leap from the floor to cover his posts :(

Going to be a long 3 months without Ruddy... I'd even welcome Declan Rudd back into the goal in favour of Mark Bunn at the moment!
 
Arsenal, thankfully Wilshire was playing, we stopped West Brom playing well offensively which is pretty key with our back line, and a huge part of that was Wilshire closing down, and Arteta playing much better. But in general West brom didn't look very good, and we had loads of the ball and still didn't look good. Gervinho with so much time and space its embarrassing still contrieved to run towards the nearest defender, shoot and have his shot blocked. he was complete gash making a single decent chance in the entire game for Wilshire, and that only happened because he delayed and delayed and missed a much better/earlier chance for Giroud. AOC, also had plenty of time on the ball and ultimately provided nothing, some terrible crosses, a cross stupidly close to the face of the goal when he should have been shooting and burying it.

Santi, we're turning into Liverpool, in the past 5-6 games as its been going badly we've had Gervinho, Ramsey, Santi all do embarrassing dives. A meh performance against a poor team that required a dive to get our first goal, and rarely looked threatening despite a huge amount of the ball in the opposition half :(

Loldolski, that was a pretty awesome miss, from another chance Wilshire created. I can't really remember any saves the keeper made at all, stats seem to suggest 3 shots on goal, 2 will be the penalties, I think Gervinho took a long pass at the keeper, was that the other one? outside of one dive and one completely stupid penalty, with them playing poorly and us having so much of the ball in dangerous area's we couldn't manage more shots on goal, joke really.


At least Brentford won, went behind twice, came back for the win, still looking strong, won 9, drawn 2 in the last 11 at home is a pretty fantastic record.
