Gave up the lead with a man advantage.....Wenger made 8 changes....unreal.
my boy Song should've been in there
lol baby gunners
It's always something with them. Either they can't win the big games or when they do, they roll over next game.

I've said this so many times: Wenger is overrated
Meh, I don't get why everybody is so upset about those changes. Chamakh, Arshavin and Squillaci are usually part of the starting 11, so they more or less just returned yesterday. Bendtner and Denilson have been starting quite a couple of games as well. The only changes that brought in players who usually don't play that much were Rosicky and Eboue (who also was playing on the "wrong" side). Diaby was coming back from an injury and needed some match practice.
Arsenal had more than enough quality on the pitch to protect a lead against ten men, but the sad thing is that Arsenal are abysmally poor at playing with a one-goal lead (pretty much regardless of who is playing). You should be able to do that if you want to lift the trophy at the end of the season, though.
Well, Baby Gunners came to play today. Could've been 5-6, easily.
Man U got lucky as ...first the professional foul in the box isn't called on Neville, then West Brom misses a penalty they actually get...geez.
Good game Arsenal, just outplayed in all areas tbh.
how the does ManU always find a way to escape???
bendtner is not good enough to start for a le contending team. Denilson should never start in place of Song except maybe in domestic cup games. Chamakh only had a regular start because Van Persie was injured. It's unfortunate Fabregas couldn't play because of suspension. Even if Wenger wins, the changes are still questionable. That's why it's so tough to support Arsenal....why not build momentum with the win over Chelsea with the same core of players? Then Wenger goes on guaranteeing Arsenal will win the le...what a guy
City looks to have signed Dzeko

Time to Real to get Adebayor
Cameron Jerome is the Ime Udoka of the Premier League.. ing Garbage! Hleb is a beast though.
Epic fail match. Arsenal controlled the game but couldn't get the breakthrough. City is happy. City.
Gunners have talent, but lack of experience has been a major issue
Lack of killer instinct is probably a bigger issue now. , most of their players have several years of experience now.
In Arsenal's defense, City mailed it in 1/2 way through the game and played for a tie.
Yeah City played for the draw.
lol Chelsea.
Team of the day is ing Manchester United. Tottenham, Chelsea, City, and Arsenal all drop point while Sir Alex sips on cigars. United
Wolves! Damn.
They are some lucky ers, I swear. How they're still undefeated, I'll never know.
Ancelotti will be sacked, it's between him, Hodgson, Grant and Houllier for the first to be sacked. My money's on Hodgson.
Arsenal was a bit unlucky with the woodwork, but you just have to get at least one goal out of the chances they had in the first half, especially against a good defensive side like City.
Good game by Arsenal after those stinkers against Championship teams Leeds and Ipswich. Van Persie looked a lot better than the last couple of games.
Yeah, I was hoping West Ham would be easy pickings, they are in last place after all. It could've been easily 5 or 6 goals to be honest.
Now only if Robie (and Cesc) can stay healthy.
It's a good day whenever ManU loses points....I'm still waiting for their first loss.

LOL better attack than Barca & MadridRonaldo roars back at Balotelli
Cristiano Ronaldo has told outspoken Manchester City striker Mario Balotelli to talk less and concentrate on his football.
Italian international Balotelli has been at the centre of a number of controversies since joining City from Inter Milan last summer and recently made headlines by taking a swipe at Manchester United's Wayne Rooney.
But Real Madrid star Ronaldo, who made his name at United alongside Rooney, hit back in Gazzetta dello Sport: "Balotelli? He's a good player but he must talk less and think about playing more.
"In the Premier League, if he knows how to listen and wants to learn, he could become a great player. I hope he achieves that. However, today he puts many other things ahead of his career and this is not good."
Balotelli, who is currently sidelined with a knee injury, is set to go head to head with Rooney in the Manchester derby at Old Trafford on February 12.
"He [Wayne Rooney] is a very good player but not the best in Manchester," Balotelli said on Tuesday. "Our attack of Balotelli-Tevez-Dzeko is the best in the world - better even than Barcelona and Real Madrid. We are the strongest and we can win things now - we just lack conviction."
The City striker also delivered his verdict on his former coach at Inter, Jose Mourinho, and said current boss Roberto Mancini would soon be regarded a better manager.
"Mourinho is the best coach in the world but as a man he has a lot to learn about politeness and respect," he said. "[Mancini is] the most important coach I've had. Soon he'll be the best in the world. As a man he's 10km ahead of Mourinho."
