I think today we're poor. We gave Arsenal plenty of spaces to trouble us. Kolo was poor, gave away the ball alot, poor touches, may be afraid of his former fans. In short, our midfields could not handle their midfields. That is where we lost the game. I tried to warn people here about playing three at the back in this article but I received many criticisms:

Against top sides we should go back to traditional 451 formation. Possible Sturridge not to play until when we are chasing the game. SAS for me against top sides away from home is suicidal.

Today's Game Against Arsenal

We lost the game in midfield. We didn't press and couldn't keep the ball.

The three centre backs wasn't really the problem. It was the fact that your wing backs were atrociously poor.

"Kolo was poor, gave away the ball alot"
Toure was very good, unfortunately one bad pass will cloud the judgement of the sensationalist.
Losing Johnson before kickoff was a massive blow as we lost the thing which has made us a threat recently and that's having wing backs in the attacking zones.

Give an object lesson in ball possession, control, passing, teamwork. Fully marks to Arsenal they could have won by more. Back to the drawing board.
