I knew it would be tough at Stoke, but I thought we’d grind out a result. It’s not like the Gunners didn’t know about Delap (his throws providing both their goals). Van Persie decided he didn’t fancy playing the next three matches so he’d get himself sent off after only being on the pitch a matter of minutes (had he even touched the ball before shoving Sorenson into the back of the goal?). So the Gunners were going to bounce back after the draw against spurs? Looks like they didn’t order enough rubber!
Adebayor and Sagna hobbled off, Walcot was stretchered off with what looked like a dislocated shoulder and confidence couldn’t be lower. The only glimmer of hope I see at the minute for the match against Man U next week is the fact that they shipped 3 goals to Hull today, but on present form, Hull are a much tougher prospect than we are.
I’ve tried to be as positive as possible, after Fulham, after Hull, after Sunderland, and, tough as it was, after Spurs, but i’m running out of ways to see how they can pull this together and get our season going.
Finishing in the top 4 this year might just be Wengers greatest achievement.
