Regardless of what you've said Sharon, we should still have won this game.

If that is the case, no member of the TOP FOUR should be dropping points against the other sixteen teams in the Premiership, no?

I am telling you the gap has closed considerably well.
No more easy fixtures. . . . .Any big team can be caught cold as you have seen from many strange results this season.
Burnley are no push overs @ Turf Moor. They eliminated Arsenal and Chelsea in last season's Carling Cup, remember?

I remember that, but if you watched the game, we could've been 3-0 up before the penalty. . . .not to mention other chances in the second half.

Nasri was wasteful, AA23 was wasteful, Walcott was wasteful. I get angry when the margin between success and failure is so slim.

I'm sure maybe tomorrow I'll be in a better mood to give some credit to Burnley but right now I'm just very pissed off at the reality of another two points dropped. It's very costly.

U dropped a point AWAY from home and you are this pissed. . . . . .United dropped 3 points at OT on Saturday. . . .Do you know what that feels like?
Abeg, go and drink cold water and chillax.
Everyone will still drop precious points especially this busy Christmas period.

They would have scored three goals as well, so counting an "almost goal" doesnt cut it. These types of games make EPL more competitive.

I am Arsenal fan - so I am clearly looking at OUR failings - let other games be interesting in the premiership. I just want Arsenal to WIN.

I am very pissed. . .you need to have watched this game to know what I'm talking about. . . .a little more composure and this game could've been KILLED in 15 minutes!!

I know everyone will drop points, but I'd rather draw to Villa than draw to Burnley and have all the muppets trotting out the asinine line about Arsenal struggling during a 'cold noight oop norf'.

I've ordered from Shekpe from Nateevs so i'll be fine in a bit.

Was it that bad?

'Oop Norf' is HELL for all London clubs this term.
Make una nor vex.

Saturday is another MATCHDAY so you don't have to stew in tonight's disappointment.
I hate it when i have to wait for one week instead.

~Sauron~:

Selfish GAYnner.

NO apologies.

Was it that bad?

Believe me it was - first Fab's second chance (which can be pardoned cos he scored a more difficult one), AA23 hitting the bar, Nasri freed on goal. . .it was madness.

'Oop Norf' is HELL for all London clubs this term.

Nonsense - we shall annihilate them at the Emirates to make up for this.

Can't wait to face Hull. . . the tan freak must be sacked this season and this will be the beginning.

Agent Chris Eagles played well.
He fetched me vital fantasy points tonight.

Geovanni & Daniel Cousin + 2008/9
Another gnashing of the teeth at the Emirates.

No doubt - AA23 and Cesc did their best, but a finisher would've gobbled up the other chances.

Eagles was ok. . . he might move to a bigger club next season.

For Spurs fans yes - their coach was apoplectic last time around in the FA cup, this time his tan will start fading.

Letz do a trade. . . . . .Welbeck for Eduardo.

Probably Aston Villa.
Martin O'Neill loves wingers.

3 easy points for the GAYnners. . . . . .while United have to travel to Craven Cottage and face Etuhu and cohorts.

debosky:

What does this criticism have to do with the game tonight? I don't understand our need to just find someone to blame - Almunia did his job tonight, others didn't.

hmm which ones exactly: do you mean the letting in the goals part or the cause us heart attack part. . .

No2Atheism:

hmm which ones exactly: do you mean the letting in the goals part or the cause us heart attack part. . .

Dude did you watch the game? The 'goal' he let in was a penalty. . .how many of those get stopped? He did his job and didn't let in goals except for a penalty - if the forwards did theirs we'd have won.

Cheese n Rice. . . . .

The FA want to charge Wolves FC for fielding a second team?
Bloody hell, i think there are more morons than sane people at Soho square.

Why didn't they charge Man Utd last season when we fielded a 2nd team against Hull FC?

hmm . . . . . the offside that was not really an offside.

That is the goal the Burnley scored but was ruled for offside. . .

THE BALL SHOULD NOT HAVE GOT TO THE BURNLEY PLAYER IN THE FIRST PLACE IF NOT THAT THE BEST GOAL KEEPER IN THE WORLD . . . .hmm did not stop a ball

Even the commentators said he was lucky that the goal was ruled for offside otherwise na OYO he dey . . .

Have been an arsenal fan since my OAU days (a long time ago in a galaxy far far away  ) . . .however the obvious truth is that he is simply not good enough as a First Choice goal keeper. . . . . in this case, poo has hit the fan cus the truth is that Almunia is no longer young, and yet he looks average compared to other goal keepers . .

Its bad when one becomes unsure which one is better between Almunia and Kuschak (who is second choice at Utd) . . .

Even Kirkland is better than Almunia . . .

Rubbish - I wonder what kind of eyes some of you watch footie with.

Go watch it again - there was a deflection off Vermaelen just before the ball passed Almunia. The deflection took it out of his path and into the path of Fletcher. I guess he's at fault for the deflection too?

Oh what about the magnificent punch onto the bar that he made in the first half? I guess that didn't happen either.

Please bring out stats and don't simply invent things. . .if you are confused about whether Almunia is better than Kitkat, the problem is in your own cerebrum not in reality. Kirkland is better than Almunia now? Wow the crap you come up with at times.

On a more serious note, I do not beleive I am insulting you with any of my posts hence I would appreciate you accord me the same respect by not throwing any insults but instead stick to the point and discussion at hand . . .

Insults are not my thing, hence i would appreciate you keep it as civil as possible.

---------------------------------------------------------

Almunia is sh.i.t end of story . . . Almunia would be benched in any of the other top teams in the premiership . . . imagine . . .even Reinna who is not first choice for Spain and who himself is not really exactly the best thing since slice bread  is still considered better than Almunia . . . 

---------------------------------------------------------

Its okay to be a fan and yet be realistic about it . . . no need in being so devoted unnecessarily . . . Almunia is not good enough to be first choice . . .his performances yesterday and in previous games, leave a little to desire.

----------------------------------------------------------

I would be glad if you can please show a replay video indicating that Almunia missed the ball because it was deflected . . .:

- My own mind tells me Almunia missed the ball after it was also missed by an Arsenal player.
- The commentator said Almunia missed the ball.
- Another ESPN report shown below also said Almunia missed the ball.

You are saying he missed the ball because it was deflected . . . i would be glad to accept that I was wrong once you can show me the video replay showing that the ball was actually deflecteed. . . please do not ask me to trust your word the onus is on you to provide the video evidence since you the one claiming that the ball was deflected

Arsernal this arsernal that, i was badly hurt on Sunday when my dear Liverpool lose to ArSERNAL BUT I can bet it with anything including my life that Liverpool will top the table ahead of Arsernal, Ordinary Burnley held you to 1-1 draw yesterday shame Arsenal .
I am a true fan of Liverpool the most successful club in the whole British, I love you so much with all my heart.You will never walk alone.

Lucky a.r.ses eh?
That was a contentious decision from the ref to disallow that goal.

I must admit Walcott has degenerated from the high rating he had when he was at Southampton.This nonsense English media sef.

I only noticed "KING" Walcy yesterday when he ballooned the ball to his girl friend. That lil boy can never get a shirt in United reserve.
How he plays for arsenal beats my imagination.

Nice to see the KG boys lose points.

Kuszcak is a top keeper and if not for xenophopia there is now way in the world Foster should be ahead of him. I have exactly ther same sentimenst about walcott. Me self tire for the guy, These were my words when he balloned what should have been an easy cross across the face of goal yetserday ' I can play better than this guy' even though I am preety am pretty rubbish at the game,

Dubious decisions got Arsenal and Chelsea out of jail yesterday. Think The FA wants the trophy in London.
Ivanovic did something Micheal Phelps would be proud of and a stupid ref disallowed Burnley's legit goal.

Fingers crossed.

Am telling you . . . Arsenal was even lucky to get a point . . . in that match sef . . .


Guys by the way Micheal Phelps is probably coming to my Area here in Manchester cus i see his name on a competition poster . . . am not really a fan of Swimming . . .but might be tempted just to go for the Photo-Ops
