Great for a neutral. It wouldn't have been so much fun for an Ars supporter!

I'll be happy with a boring 0-1 Leicester win tomorrow with only 1 shot on target and no shots from Sunderland.

There were times when Ozil and Sanchez looked world class and more times when they didn't exist.

A strange game.

Arsenal fans should feel lucky to have got a point I think.

Watching the Norwich v Palace game hoping that it's a bottom table dogfight and that Villa get relegated today.

Bilic 12 matches against Man Utd, Man City, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool: 0 defeats.

Are you convinced now, Baph?

I'm a believer now, but I never said he was a bad coach in the first place.

Are you convinced about Ranieri? ;)

He'll bottle tomorrow. Big Sam will do a number on him.

But sadly I dont think you'll win. World Trade Center was still standing last time you beat Man Utd at home, Pochettino has never beaten Man Utd, you've never won or scored against Van Gaal, Kane never scored against ManUtd or De Gea.

Our fullbacks just allowed crosses in for carroll lmao and our defenders just didn't bother to mark him at all . Its like the only thing he can do. I've never hated an arsenal team as much as I do this one lmao

Bilic is one of the top coaches in the world. Dude is really really good. Most of you just underestimated him just because he was coming from Turkey but it was crystal clear to me that he did a good job in turkey and he was going to do well in England.

To be fair, Carroll should've been sent off.

What?

Firstly Bilic is a very good coach.

Secondly how can you then critisize Ranieri when he has taken a far "cheaper" squad to more wins against the same teams in his first season. Ranieri deserves manager of the season. He has handled the situation brilliantly - even if we don't win the league.

Thirdly, If we don't win the league, it won't be because we bottled it.

Fourthly, Past years results have absolutely no effect on a game in a present season. If they did we wouldn't bother playing any matches we'd just give the trophy to Blackpool or someone on the first day of the season. :banghead:

As a neutral that's absolute bull! The elbow was a nothing incident.

Next you'll be saying that Wham's first disallowed goal shouldn't have been allowed.

It'd be nice if Norwich can stay up. All 3 promoted teams staying up could be a first!

And as great as Sunderland, Newcastle and Villa have been in the past they really need a wake-up call to return them to the big time. A battle in the championship for a year or two will do them good. Winning the championship for a team like Newcastle would re-inspire a lot of great fans and bring a much needed freshness back.

Villa could easily disappear to the 3rd level before they find the route back to success.
