Going to be weird seeing a 1 beside United in the table after tonight.

Come off it, it's half time ffs.

There's still 45 minutes left to play.

It's nothing to do with the pitch or football. Its the belief you have that you can and will bring it back and not loose. Why you score so many really annoying late goals

It's a pity we can't go out with that attitude isn't it? We go out there an make teams like Blackpool look like Barcelona. Normally an early goal against us gets us going but not so far. in that 45 mins I think we made one good move.

Stats say we've had 5 shots and 3 on target, when did they happen :confused:

I can only remember Rafael's header and Berbatov's volley.

Zenit can have Arshavin for all I care with the form he is in at the moment.

But it could be turned around completely.

Let's see how many come out holding their faces after the hairdryer and go from there..

Gibson got a shot on target.

We need to start getting it to the wings on the break and try to get in behind them. Nani keeps getting the ball when there's already a scrum of Blackpool players waiting to get in the way. And Chico would be a welcome sight.

Lets hope. But like I said, better losing to a non conteder. We can't drop too many points against the top 4.

Only remotely attacking arsenal players I haven't seen dive recently are nasri and wilshere. Can't believe someone thinks one dive will ruin their reputation. It won't, but it'll further justify it.

SAME OLD ARSENAL ALWAYS CHEATING

I'm not trying to justify it, but just about every team has a few divers - it would be an unfair advantage to other teams if you didn't (i know how that sounds). I can't stand diving or simulation from our players, makes me sick! :mad:

Not quite, I'm not blaming the pitch, its the same for both sides, but one side is used to it being a cut up mess and playing most of their football in the air, the other side isnt used to it, and is fielding a midfield of three completely useless players.

If this was at say, Villa, at least they would have a decent pitch and only be playing against the other players.

Yeah I'm pretty glad Spurs didn't end up buying him

Come on Blackpool and Arsenal pull your socks up!!!! Arshavin has been toilet....

dante6491 · 25 Jan 2011 at 20:35

Nasri and Walcott on second half, one of them straight away at half time.

FrankJH · 25 Jan 2011 at 20:35

been saying for weeks this game was dangerous

Why Gibson even started this game is beyond me

Sham is right, get Gibson and Fletch off immediately for Giggs and Anderson, but I would give Berba 15 more mins before getting Chicharito on (Rooney is doing ok with link up play and defensively)

Utd have been frightful but tightening up midfield shiuld help

Giggs on at least

Robert1986 · 25 Jan 2011 at 20:36

Almost 3-0.

I need a sick bucket at the ready.

Greenlizard0 · 25 Jan 2011 at 20:36

HT 0-0.

Ipswich are playing a lot better than Wigan did on Sat.

Need to bring on Nasri and take off Arshavin/Denilson pronto.

It's every game now though. The fact that Walcott did it, then held his hands up and admitted it, and nothing whatsoever was done about it makes a mockery of the whole thing.

Fab was fouled earlier and had it been another player I've no doubt it would have been given. Not right, but it's a rod he's made for his own back.

Blasted it into Row Z in frustration earlier...

We look like a Bambi on ice at the start of this half as well.
