Arsenal – Huddersfield Match Thread

There are some woeful players out there and if we keep playing them we will eventually suffer big time.it was disgusting and if we had been away from home we would had lost.

Bedtner is MOTM for me

And that's a win. Whoever's doing the player ratings, if you give Denilson more than 4.5 you're blind.

Brenton, to be fair, Denilson only had one shaky moment, otherwise he did well for me. I'll say I was impressed with his heroics, staying on with a possible hamstring injury, 'cos we had run out of subs.

He gave the ball away multiple times, several because he just let himself be pushed over, expecting, I expect, a whistle.

Four added minutes. More dangerous play by Huddersfield.

Cesc, as almost always, brings a whole other level to this team. Denilson beyond useless. Chamakh quickly dropping to that standard as well..

Bendtner's been pretty good though, to be fair

Yeah, him and Arshavin have been decent today.

This shouldnt disguise the fact that some of them deserves a spinking tonight.A shocking performance.

Penalty drawn by Bendtner. Lucky, though great play by Fabregas.

And it's 2-1 to us.

this is unacceptable.

Huddersfield are commanding at The Emirates,another debacle,have they no shame.

this is beyond ridicilous.

This team deserves to lose. They've been shit, except for Arshavin and Bendtner, who've been merely okay.

And then Bendtner goes and puts in a horrible cross to no one.

Denilson pulls up with hamstring. We're dropping like flies!

Injuries are the last thing we need now; we have done well, so far. Surely, fate isn't going to deal us a cruel one at this point in our season.

what is the point of Eboue and Rosicky a garden elf would bring more to our game then those two.

Either our players really liked playing 9 games in January and would like to play another 8 in February, or they really hate the FA Cup. Or they suck. You choose lol

When Squillaci got sent off, I was like, why don't we bring on Djourou? Then I realized we had no defenders on the bench lol That's not usually a good thing is it? No backup defenders?

Brilliant by Arshavin to set up Bendtner, took too long and his shot was blocked.

Fabregas on for Diaby, 69th minute.

Denilson again goes down weakly. Get him off, he's been shit.

Huddersfield score. I would really like to win this please because I hate friggin replays

1-1. It was coming.

And I just saw the match thread. There are tons of great comments over on the preview post.

Yeah...pretty much

...Time to shake things up a bit with Theo or Cesc.

Good save Almunia.

The longer we allow this tame play go on, the more confident the Hurddersfield side will become. Gibbs is having a shaky game and, I fear, may cost us this game.

Arsha defending lol

I'm beginning to come around to Arsene's thinking - we don't need any centrehalves. Bring Chesney off the bench to partner Laurent - viva Sczecielny!!

Arshavin my word, does he try to hit the moon when he kicks the ball, he does one thing good a 3 things horrible, lost the ball and got Sebastian sent off geez

since nasri gone off we are afraid to attack

Nasri off injured. Looked like his hamstring. I'm very worried.

Anything more than a 2-3 week hamstring pull/strain and he's a risk of missing the first leg against Barca.

because it was a stupid ball from Almunia, trying for a fast break, why don't he crawl back into the cave he came from
