Well, Fabianski had the opportunity to show he can step up and threaten Almunia for the position as number one goalie. But did he take it? No, he didn’t. Hardly a surprise. He should now be called Flapianski or maybe Flopianski. The referee was weak and allowed the schoolboy goal to stand. How about letting our defenders get in place first, Mr Referee? And why position the ball so close to the goal, closer than a penalty?! (Heck, from that distance, even Dudú would be hard-pressed to miss it). And surely they should wait for the whistle to blow first??? It was a bizarre goal alright. The debate continues.
Skipper Cesc suffered the most fouls of the night (and what was more disturbing was no one tok it upon him to come to his defence). Denilson was appallingly poor; I kept shouting to Wenger to substitute him with Ramsey but unfortunately that didn’t happen. The two substitutes Theo and Vela didn’t make much contribution.
Ouch! Porto’s blatant tactic was to kick poor Cesc out of the game. Poor baby ;'(
Bahhh. It’s a wonder I’m not bellowing out my anger and fury yet. But I looked a bit like this earlier.
