This.Hurts a bit not not really that bothered.
Took a defensive mistake for them to win, this game should show us there isn't much difference between the sides and quell any fears of being left behind in the race for 4th

I think you've hit the nail on the head there.Arsenal were shit. Thought we were actually decent. One bad backpass cost us the game, simple as that.
Oliver has double standards.
Might as well get a left back as Shaw looks like another injury prone defender if he went off injured again tonight.The defence needs huge investment. Two quality CB's and a RB.
Fecking hell! Surely this is way past your bedtime child.Louis Van Moron.
Bye bye cup. And coming shortly, Bye Bye Top 4.
Well, I won't be drawn into exchanging abuses with you or anybody. I think it's the height of stupidity to do what Di Maria did. And the substitutions? Don't even get me started, that was principally why we lost, Van Gaal basically handed the initiative to Arsenal.Stupid post if I've ever seen one.
We played well. Yes, very stupid from Di Maria to get himself sent off. A well deserved 3 match ban and he won't be doing that again any time soon. But not only could have that decision gone either way (he went down VERY easy, but there was a tug of his arm), but the match was officiated with massive double standards. Welbeck didn't get a yellow for diving first half, but both Di Maria and Januzaj did. I won't even mention the mandatory second yellow for Bellerin.
No excuses for Di Maria. You're a professional and you should not be losing it at a time like that.
But we could have easily gotten a draw, more even had that match been officiated objectively.
I reckon Welbeck wouldn't have if he was still playing for us, mind.My dead nan would have scored that.
Agree with this. People often do this either-or thing and it's either our players' fault for diving or it's the ref's fault for being a biased cnut. I honestly think this was both, although I'd lean more toward shite refereeing, since the Di Maria incident was more him selling it than it was a dive, while Januzaj was off-balance and only he knows if he could've stayed on his feet there. But even if they were stone cold dives, Oliver didn't punish the other side for similar instances. And though ADM was idiotic for pushing him, didn't Joe Hart lean into him with his head aggressively earlier this season and he completely ignored it?Stupid post if I've ever seen one.

Gotta resurrect the meltdown thread for this gem!1. I'm really happy for welbz
2. I hate LVG
3. 90% of our team are utter shit and currently stealing a living at our club and shouldn't be anywhere near our team in the first place
4. Im happy though, the result doesn't matter because we had 58% possesion after all we all know possesion is priority sod the results and performance.
What. We just got knocked out by his goal.1. I'm really happy for welbz
Well I am bothered and those players should sure as hell be bothered and I bet they will be. This would have given us great momentum going into a lot of hard games.Hurts a bit not not really that bothered.

Takes your shit elsewhere.Fecking hell! Surely this is way past your bedtime child.
Doom and gloom merchants are out in force I see, and you're not even the worst of them.How are we getting top 4 exactly?
We going to beat Chelsea? no
We going to beat liverpool? no
We going to beat City? no
We going to beat Arsenal? no
We going to beat Spurs? no
We are up shit creek here without a raft, never mind a paddle.
Meh. Still think we should get rid of RVP and Falcao but Welbeck isn't the answer. He had an ok game today to be fair to him. But no more than ok.Not just the goal though. He was working his bollocks off, nicking the ball off United over and over again.
True, but people seem to have rather short memories regarding him.I reckon Welbeck wouldn't have if he was still playing for us, mind.
easy draws we made difficult, we had Arsenal and Liverpool to contend with and the likes of Aston Villa to face in the Semis, this would have been the perfect time to win the F.A cupOur FA Cup run was a hoax with all these easy draws anyway.
best post yet!I reckon Welbeck wouldn't have if he was still playing for us, mind.
No, it's called being realistic.Doom and gloom merchants are out in force I see, and you're not even the worst of them.
Now I know how Arsenal fans must have felt like for 10 years
Let it all out kid! You'll get a girlfriend one day. Wordplay like "Louis van Moron" will make the ladies swoon!Takes your shit elsewhere.
You are the worst poster on here, and I am sure as well ain't taking shit from a guy whose only objective on this site is to abuse other posters. Try to get a life.
True but proved that we shouldn't have got rid of him, I know danny was inconsistent here but at least he showed some passion a desire and never stopped running for every ball. More than can be said for our current crop and our striker we brought in that's on 300k a week and can't even get a game.What. We just got knocked out by his goal.
No they're not. If today showed anything it's that there is nothing between us and Arsenal. It came down to an individual cock-up. As for Liverpool, they are more fluent than us but they simply can go missing in plenty of games. When you weigh in everything, we are all at more or less the same level.I expected Arsenal to beat us. Both Arsenal and Liverpool are 10% superior to us as teams all over the pitch and they both will finish in the top 4. David Moyes was our Graham Souness and may have done long term damage to this club.....The jury is still out on Van Gaal but he will improve us no end by next season but all of his signings for 150 million apart from Rojo are not good enough and that is frightening
This. LVGs subs lost us the game. No midfield or momentum in the second half thanks to LVG. We resorted to hoofing and diving because we couldn't get a foothold in midfield. The frustration was bound to boil over. Pathetic.Brilliant first half, stupid subs, shit second half.
I rated him generally, but the easier the chance the harder he found it!True, but people seem to have rather short memories regarding him.
