Great win we really needed that, the first sending off was massive but TBH imo Arsenal was as poor as I've seen them for at least 2 seasons. Unlike other clubs they chose not to attack our right side and seems they're only plan was to catch us on the counter with a long ball to Walcott. I'm still unconvinced by Ivan who wasn't put under pressure but offers nothing going forward. I also thought this was Cesc best showing of the season so far.

They did try, but Pedro played defensively, very well so Ivanovic wasn't left 1 on 2 as he was in previous games. Dave is much better covered thanks to the fact that Matic is covering our left side. Zouma was really amazing today not because he scored but due to how well he played. Fabregas started playing better and Oscar really means a lot to us.

Good shout, I saw a few attempts just not as consistently as Palace and others but you're right Pedro did a decent job tracking back this match.

Oscar gave the ball away about 7 times in the first half I don't see what the fuss is about again hugely unconvincing performance. only complaint today is why we didn't see loftus cheek come on in midfield to add more energy in second half I hate donkey mikel he's still taking time off rlc even after a mom performance Wednesday sometimes I just can't understand mourinho he's not the same man as he was

I also agree about Costa needing to calm down cause he will get sent off if that was at any ground other than Stamford bridge he would of been off . yes we do applaud him for acting like a maggot but so what he's a hero to us and he breaks his back in the jersey and wears his heart on his sleeve he needs to rediscover the goal scoring form do and calm down a slight bit

Not so sure about Arsenal being poor - I think we out-played them before and after the sending off. We pressed high up the field; broke forward in numbers; passed forward rather than sideways; played at a high tempo - all the things we haven't been doing previously this season.
