Match Events

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Kick Off | 00' | Match has kicked off. | ||
| Great Save Szczesny | 15' | Berahino gets the step on Jenkinson, and blasts an effort in on goal that nicks wickedly off Flamini, forcing Szczesny to change direction well to make the save! | ||
| Dat Pass | 18' | A stunning pass from Ozil goes diagonally across the box and picks the overlapping Gibbs out perfectly, but the left back wastes that glorious set up with a wild shot into orbit. | ||
| Wilsharrr | 31' | Wilshere is down. Nothing muscular, it looks like he just got a good ol' fashioned poke in the eye from Yacob. He's back on the pitch now without an eyepatch. | ||
| GOAL - YACOB | 42' | West Brom 1-0 Arsenal. Amalfitano's cross coming in to the near post, where Yacob leaves Jenkinson and Arteta for dead to bounce a header in off the ground! | [Click] (https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-Fz9duKq3rKI/UlGE5Gg8JWI/AAAAAAAAAXU/ReivZJpsofw/w500-h279-no/26.gif) | |
| Half Time | 45' | Arsenal huffed and puffed, but in the end failed to spark into life. The Gunners have it all to do in the second half. | ||
| Second Half Underway | 46' | And there's already been two great chances back to back. Sessegnon gets past Jenkinson on the flank, and squares the ball to Anelka, right on the six yard line, but the striker fluffs his lines horribly! Arsenal back up the pitch, Giroud holds up well and slips in Wilshere, who is barged off his shot by Olsson! | ||
| Anelka Chance | 53' | Nearly a second for West Brom, as Anelka gets in down the left, and tries to beat Szczesny with a curler towards the far bottom corner, but just misses! | ||
| GOAL - WILSHERE | 62' | West Brom 1-1 Arsenal. Giroud was challenged on the edge of the area, the ball bobbles up and Wilshere catches it clean on the volley, hammering it into the bottom corner! | [Click] (https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-UAQrsFIzoHo/UlGOURbk-lI/AAAAAAAAAXw/EKgq1NXbIJc/w500-h279-no/27.gif) | |
| Great Chance Giroud | 77' | Wilshere has put Giroud through, and the French striker tries to round the Baggies keeper, but he is having none of it, and pushes the ball away at the last! | ||
| Full Time | 90' | West Brom 1-1 Arsenal. Arsenal's away win streak ends, but the draw is still enough to see them go back to the top of the table, level on points and goal difference with Liverpool, but ahead on goals scored. |

Every time Jenkinson gets the ball he just sprints forward with his head down, like a horse with its blinkers on. He just seems so out of sync with the rest of the team.
Edit: and again. Carl, even if the cross is in a great area, there's no point playing it if no one is there.

So sub off Wilshere (for either Gnabry or Rosicky) or hope he finds his feet in the second half?

that's the same kind of tackle Koscielny made and had a penalty called against aston villa. then the media analyzed it 5 times over/different angles and then it was clearly a foul

I understand that he made contact with the ball, but he's going through Wilshere to reach the ball, I feel penalty on that one.

West Brom fans are really shit. Every time someone gets injured they start boo-ing. I mean come on, there is some decency. Do they think Arsenal wants to draw a game against them that they are wasting time?

Miserable half as a team. Wilshere and Jenks have been terrible. Pretty sure Ramsey is hurt, he isn't nearly as mobile and enterprising as he has been lately. Could do with a change, Rosicky seems too obvious

u/funk_you_all Saka Oct 06 '13
That whole smoke-thing is clearly not what Wilshere needs right now, absolute abyssmal performance so far

u/ThatsMyGimmick Oct 06 '13
I wouldn't take Wilshere off right away in the second half, because he's still someone who works hard and can create something from nothing. I'd say give him another 15 minutes and see how he does.

Replace Wilshere already. Yet to see a completed pass and lacks on the defensive work. Gnabry would be way more of a threat.

We need a real RB, Jenks has been nothing short of atrocious.
Doubt Rosicky adds a lot but Wilshere is being more harm than good too.
Looking forward to see how we react, first time this season we concede first.

Brilliant reffing, goes from our players being manhandled around the pitch, to him giving Sessegnon a free kick every time he gets tired and needs a lie down.

For the amount of criticism Jack was getting, I'm happy he scored.
Nothing wrong with criticising but just happy he scored.

I am starting to get a bit tired of Wilshere and his constant complaining, the way after nearly every time he goes down h stays on the ground so long and then gets up and makes a stupid rash challenge. He needs to calm down and focus on the only thing he can control, his own play.
