Was at the Emirates yesterday, wonderful stadium to look at from the outside and probably the most comfortable I've ever been sat inside a football stadium but those are the only positive things I can say about Arsenal after yesterday.

The biggest problem that Arsenal had was lack of movement, you would often see Santi or Wilshire with the ball in the middle of park and you had the likes of Walcott, Podolski, Chamberlin, Giroud, Gervinho just stood there being man marked and expecting those 2 to make something happen instead of creating space for themselves meaning then that the ball would just go back to the defenders or to the goalkeeper.

Defensively Arsenal were also poor often finding themselves out of position and looking like a nervous child any time a Swansea player was running at them and what Jenkinson was doing before Swansea's 2'nd goal I will never know.

But credit to Swansea they played very well, Defensively they did what they had to do and some of the passing was something you would expect from an Arsenal team 3 or 4 seasons ago, Michu took his chances brilliantly and the Swansea fans were also in good voice and often mocking the Arsenal fans for the there lack of of singing.

Norwich vs Sunderland today. Two genuine relegation candidates face off in what promises to be either a goal-fest or a snore-fest. I will be keeping track.

I'm all for increasing the number of CL teams and scrapping the Europa League. Obviously increase the number of qualifiers, and not increase numbers in the group stage. Europa is fucking pointless and has way too many matches. We started our season well before everyone else in the prem and have played more matches than anyone. Its ridiculous. Imagine the atmosphere, and the meaning that would go into the qualifying matches for the CL if there were a bunch of the lower ranked sides competiting for places.

I would definitely watch the qualifiers, if only for clubs like Spurs and Everton getting embarrassed by the likes of Tre Fiori and Sant Julià...

Hesk I'm really curious what teams you would nominate apart from Villa for the Bravelions League
Ajax :darkbarry

I'll tell you the rest at the end of the season. :draper

Any team managed by MON is ineligible though due to the new BFP rules. :mon

For Young to get credit, he actually has to play well. I presume the last time he received praise was some time last season.
I would hope so too after all the pens he won last season. Fair enough, I guess you don't have to play like a world beater to have an impact against the Reading defence but I was curious as to why he got singled out after the game for criticism ahead of people like Rafael and Lindegaard :darren

Interim Chelsea manager Rafa Benitez admits he could soon be axed after failing to win any of his first three games in charge of the Blues.

The Spaniard has overseen goalless home draws with Manchester City and Fulham and a 3-1 defeat at West Ham after taking over from Roberto Di Matteo at Stamford Bridge.

When asked about his future after Saturday's Upton Park reverse, he said: "No. I am not 100 per cent. We didn't win today - that is the main thing.

"I would say it depends on the things that we can do on the pitch. So if we improve on the pitch, it will be easier for everyone."

West Ham boss Sam Allardyce, whose side trailed 1-0 at half-time before a second-half fightback, believes Benitez needs to win over the Chelsea fans in order to succeed.

He said: "You can't manage a club if the fans are not behind you. It just won't happen. And the only way you get them on your side is by winning games.

"If you're winning the fans will always back you."

Oh yeah Hams/Hesk, there were much worse players than Young yesterday. The two you mentioned along with Evans were all absolutely woeful. Rafael refusing to shake Fergie's hand is also the stupidest thing he'll do for a while. A gif of the kitman (?) throwing the coat on him would also be appreciated, from anyone.

Evans was the worst for us yesterday, he was like a fish up a tree. Still, we extended our lead so we will be level on points with city by the end of next weekend.
