Stuck up bastard

Not the way Blackburn were doing it, they just stood there and it's up to the keeper to move them out of the way. |

The one time he did give a foul against the keeper it was never in a million years a foul - his own player took Fabianski out!We didn't challenge the keeper and take him out but we obstructed his view and made it difficult for him. You can't protect a keeper for that, its within the rules of the game. |

Footyfan, first of all, your team IS dirty. They showed that right through the first half of that game, yanking and hacking down our players. They simply could not afford to keep doing it for the rest of the game. Eboue, twice in a few minutes got pulled down, same with Walcott as soon as he got past one of your defenders. Secondly, how has an intelligent person like yourself managed to focus purely on the first two words of that sentence and completely disregard the words immediately following it? |

To bring up a dirty team argument after that match is a farce Stacey - the team doing the most pushing and pulling was Arsenal but the referee didn't do anything about it a lot of the time. How Silvestre got away with barely letting go of Roberts all match is a mystery to me - he kept hold of it all match. I'll be honest, Andrews went in late a lot and Andrews could and possibly should have had more fouls given against him, but most of the fouls in the centre of the park were committed by Andrews being so fecking slow. Apart from him, our team really weren't as bad as you'd like to make out. We certainly received as bad as we were giving out today, and we have to play harder against the bigger teams. Firm but fair. Regardless, as you said we did indeed deserve it. Arsenal misplaced a lot of passes which surprised me - we intercepted an awful lot of short passes in the match and broke forward a lot as a result. If we had two strikers rather than one we might've made more of it. I now officially hate Van Persie too. He is a bigger cheat than Christiano Ronaldo and I don't say that likely. Every time he jumped for a header and lost, he went down holding his head. Or his leg. |

Blackburn started off playing really dirty today. Our team can too, but at least I'll admit to it. Blackburn got away with a lot today, especially earlier on in the game - even to the point where the commentators were stating they were fortunate on a number of occasions. I thought the Liverpool lot were overreacting after their game but today I was watching, shaking my head and thinking 'vintage Blackburn'. Sadly for us, it was also a case of 'vintage Arsenal.' |

Did you not see the over the ball challenge from Pederson on Robin? Or did you take a blind eye to it? |

i think he was one of them blokes that slept through most of the match.first half from rovers was awful,holding,hacking,swinging arms at every highball and hoofing the ball into the box at every attempt.second half i thought rovers played better football than the arse. ps, is it just me or did robinson look as bad as fabianski under the highballs? |

Arsenal need to stop moaning about teams out muscling them. The baffling part is since wenger knows that teams try to out muscle them, why the flip dont you sort the problem out by recruiting players that deal with that or alternatively get your lads lifting more weights and bulking up. (It might be worth noting that Torres looks like a stick but i dont think anyone has ever seen him being out muscled by anyone, which basically means he can hold his own when it comes to the physical nature of the game) Bottom line, quit moaning and sort it out from your end cus no one will do you any favours.
