When was the last time we BEAT OURSELVES ?

After last night I did not talk with anyone I think all the gooner's should know why. Last night defeat against the tinies brought back the memories of Wigan away game last season, but on further analysis I realised that this defeat against the tinies was not because of them being any better than us. But what I felt was that we gifted them those three goals they scored. In the entire 90 mins I cannot remember one clear opportunity that they created or troubled our keeper or opened our defence inside out that was not the case here. Infact we gave them the 3 goals and 3 points on a silver plate.

Lets just look at the way that they have scored. First goal was actually created by a header won by Defoe probably the smallest player on the pitch and then the ball was chested down by Van der Wart and he was not challenged by Sagna, he then flicked it to Gareth Bale but our very own Denilson decided to just stop and admire.

The second goal free fick at the edge of the box, well ok that was not a free kick but we have to do our basic right while defending a free kick, Fabregas have got away with such handball on previous occasion but not this time, how can you raise your hand and not expect a penalty when clearly that free kick was going nowhere instead Chamakh would have got it with his head but still Cesc thought it is wise to put his hand up, the second gift for the tinies.

What more can I say about the third goal they stole atleast 10 to 15 yards on the freekick, but still we have got to defend and again the basic was not right while defending the freekick. why was RVP marking Kaboul, he is not the greatest in heading a ball, why wasnt a defender marking him, we all know he is good in air.

I feel so tired now really but don't even think for a second that the tinies are even close to Arsenal as the British media would suggest for the entire season now. We are far better than the best in England but the only reason why we are failing at the crucial time is because we do not have a proven winner, a leader in our team, We needed a leader on the pitch when the tinies scored the first goal. I don't know how Arsene is going to motivate them but all I can say to all the Arsenal fans is that we will still come good at the end of the season. You call me optimistic but that's what I am like when I talk about Arsenal.
