Fair result. Good first half, very sloppy second.
Young the only player who performed strongly all through the game. Everyone else seemed to wilt in the second half. Can't be believe so many on here still hate him when's had a great season.

Lack of Carrick again showed. Just have to get a new player to replace him.

Meh. Very good in the first half, very poor in the second half. Herrera and Young were great.

Good first half, decent first 15min of the second half and then terrible until the end.

Great first half, good start to the second but Arsenal grew into it more and more, the subs completely derailed us though. Blackett is definitely nowhere near good enough

Van Persie is hopeless. Such a shadow of the striker he once was. We desperately need a proper finisher.

Jammy goal for them. We're very good in the big games and we'll be even better with the summer signings in place.

I thought we deserved to win. Completely nodded the first half and the second half wasn't as bad as people are making out. Very unlucky equaliser.

That was such a shit goal to concede. We played so well for the first 60 minutes or so too. All fell apart with those subs though, Blackett's got a long way to go.

Season was already over for me anyway so i don't care about the result.
We played very well at times.

Tbf Blacket's positioning was awful. But it's to be expected. It's Blacket.

Last 20-30 minutes were very disappointing, otherwise good game, we were the better team. A shame it's only a draw in the end. But yeah don't care that much at all, chances for 3rd place were very slim anyway. Give the kids now some game against Hull.

Again a stupid substitution by LVG taking out Rojo who has done well and bringing in Blackett who is so stiff and have not play in the first team for quite a while. poor decision.

Did Arsenal even have a shot on target, considering the goal was a deflection?
Yeah they did De Gea made a good stop from Giroud.

We should have gotten the 2nd before Arsenal stepped up, it's a shame altogether. Think we would have won if De Gea hadn't gotten off or Blackett came on

Well. There's not much to say that hasn't already been said.
I think a draw was a fair result.
Lets try and get 3 points from our last game and finish on a high.

All about reaching the objective of top 4. Herrera such a class act. Yes we probably should have taken all three points, but at this stage of the season we all ( majority) accepted the fact that we would probably finish 4th.

Disappointing end to the game, Arsenal really didn't deserve to get anything out of that game, didn't have a shot in the first 50 minutes. Young just shades Blind as man of the match for me.
