Wigan were cool and positive all night.
They didn’t give the ball back to Arsenal, as many visitors do.
So they got their first Premier League victory at Arsenal.
Victor Moses was turning Sagna inside out.
Roberto Martinez is a great bloke and I really hope they stay up.
Sir Alex tried to warn Arsenal what they were up against but they ignored his comment and conceded two goals in the first eight minutes and never recovered.
Wigan broke away from an Arsenal corner and Di Santo scored a superb goal.
Jordi Gomez sniffed out a near-post poacher’s goal for 2-0 a minute later
Well played , Wigan !!
A Vermaelen header got Arsenal back into the game.
A storming header from a fabulous cross by Rosicky.
A brilliant goal by the Belgian.
And there was still plenty of time for Arsenal to come back and win.
But Walcott, Santos,Song & Djourou were hopeless.
Ramsey still anonymous.
Arteta was badly missed when he went off.
Gervinho came on and did nothing and when Oxlade came on he had nobody making runs for him
Oxlade is already a good player but he is wasted in this stodgy, robotic outfit.
He needs to play regularly but if he does that he will get into the England squad. So he’s not starting games.
Oxlade is old enough AND good enough.
WIGAN WERE SUPERB.
“Tonight, they just deserved it,” said Gary Neville.
Wenger’s behaviour on the touchline was a disgrace.
Berating the fourth official, setting a bad example to amateurs and pros alike.
Millions of schoolkids watch this game.
What example is he setting to young boys, parents and amateur managers?
As Bobby Robson, a great English sporstsman, said after his Newcastle had ripped Arsenal to shreds with lightning counter-attacks, “Some people around here don’t know how to lose.”
Van Persie refused to shake hands with Gary Caldwell, who had dominated the Dutch superstar all night.
When I get a new computer, or get mine fixed, I’ll be able to post normally.
BUT I DON’T KNOW WHEN THAT WILL BE….
PS. Stan Kroenke was there last night.
Stick around, Stan.
There’s another home game on Saturday.You can see Arsenal beat Chelsea again.
