Can't remember the last time we got a break!!
Even Forster goofed with the penalty. Doesn't he know Santi plays them down the middle?
The way I see it is that if any of Santi, Ozil or Alexis is out of the team we cannot break anyone down.
You cannot expect the Ox to stand in for Alexis and deliver the same performance - the gulf in class is too big.
But when the big three are all on the pitch together - there are chances.
Anyway please join me in celebrating :
1) Huge 3 points
2) Kos not breaking his jaw and being out until January
3) Perez not doing his hamstring
4) And Xhaka not getting a red card

But we really have been so unlucky.
For a club that relies on its first eleven to win matches. You can count on one hand the times when they are all fit.

We get very bad luck with injuries. We really do.
Kevin De Bruyne came off holding his hamstring today. For an Arsenal player that is 6 months out.

We really do!
Where do you start?
Van Persie got sent off for shooting at goal at the Nou Camp.
The ref thought he was time wasting - we were losing!

There was arguably a foul on Long by Monreal but you dont often see penalties given in those situations, or at least Arsenal dont. What I think was a mistake by the ref in the build up to the penalty was he should have stopped play for the head injury to Kos. A full on kick in the face like that could be very serious. I'm surprised our players didnt put the ball out as well.
