Never in doubt, the game's not straight. Robbed Burnley at Turf Moor last year as well in the last minute and the 98th min at the Emirates with another pen.

My word! Just seen the replay, and that's a fudging disgrace! Ramsey just stops and then launches himself! If anything is worthy of a ban, that is!

Won’t get done though as he is a name player

Niasse isn’t a big name so an easy target

Watched the game. Arsenal didn’t deserve a win. Neither team did. Was an even game.

They just get lucky again. It’s a habit and makes me sick. Why don’t we ever get the luck they do?

I won £16 on a £2 bet. I always bet on Arsenal to score late. Usually end of season I’ve prob made about £60-£80.

Would lump money on Arsenal every time there is one goal in it to either draw or win.

Watching City and the difference is clear.

Quick and forward passing - they are pressing a lot more than us as well

Poch really needs to get us playing quicker and pressing. Why have we become so slow and laboured

Couple of more long balls from Huddersfield forcing Kompany into a foot race, and he'll do his hamstring again.

Difference is that City play the ball into space. We very rarely do that. It's always to foot, which slows it down, and forces the player to beat his man, instead of the pass doing the job for you.

Nice one Huddersfield

Wont last, but at least they are giving them a game. City will blast them away 2nd half

Pace helps, but often it's more about timing and quick 1, 2 passing.

It's not just luck. Wenger's Big Idea is to up the intensity towards the end of each half when the opposition are looking for the whistle. Plus their players are encouraged to cheat and con the ref and ours aren't.
