Arsenal 1 Boro 1

Dropped points again

I heard Boro defended really well, committed loads of fouls though.

Arsenal seem to have really lost it

damn... Boateng got a red card: he's in my dream team I believe...

My team got 34 points so far.
Yeah they've been pretty poor so far

, but we had a crap season last season domestically but got to the Champs League final, we started the domestic season before that badly as well...
Something tells me Pompey won't be top of the table for long.
I know it'll take Arsenal time to get used to Emirates as its not Fortress Highbury, but a pitch is a pitch?

I dont think the pitch should count as an excuse, cause surely the other teams are playing on the same pitch as Arsenal during these games...

Nah... they just seem to have lost it I guess... not a TEAM yet maybe? maybe just bad luck... maybe bad tactics by Wenger? I dont know...

Bad tactics.. I doubt it its just that.. they're still too over elaborate, great to watch but they can't finish teams off, 1/2 years ago we won playing like that with showboating, but we had 3 of the best players ever at playing like that, Bergkamp, Pires and Viera, now they're gone, we have a team who is quite young but still trying to play that way and there's no Plan B

Plan B was to bring Walcott on.

He should of had Walcott on the bench rather than Adebayor, true. But I mean its almost like we've forgotten how to grind out results and play badly and win, instead we play well and draw or lose.
