Never have I seen anything like this. When was the last time a team have been 4-0 up in the first half of the first half? :o

    Ive never seen a team look like they dont even care, the way arsenal did for the first half. Sluggish would be the understatement of the day.

    It's a bit like crocuses coming out late, isn't it... the Arsenal January collapse just coming a few weeks late this year.

    By April-May, they'll be scuffling around for fourth place again with us, Spurs and United. They'll probably get it, though, and be mollycoddled through the CL group stages for 2014-15 before being blasted away by a group winner next Feburary.

    I do miss the rolleyes.

    Just edited... I don't even know what year it is, Arsenal's form is soooo predictable. :D

    They were a bit sluggish last week at Saints weren't they?

    Liverpool can just sit back in the 2nd half and hit Arsenal on the break. More goals to come I'm sure. BT Sport may have to make room for an extra digit for the on-screen scoreboard, it should be 7-0 already.

    I'm amazed Wenger just sat back and didn't bother changing anything. You wouldn't see Mourinho doing nothing, he would have made an early double sub to shake things up.

    I didn't even know the game was on, here's me watching Yeovil vs Leeds.

    I probably need to pay commission for bringing up Leeds in a thread where they hadn't been remotely mentioned.

    Robbedin73's been having words eh? ;-):D

    Don't have Sky or BT, I'm not watching anything... I was listening on the radio but I'm fed up with it now, think I'll try Tony Blackburn. Still, if Arsenal get a 4-4 it'll be a nice surprise to look at on MoTD late on. :D

    Arsenal mourning the death of their title dreams?

    Is anyone friends with Maicon? Could be why. Or because it's the weekend closest to Munich anniversary.

    In Arsenal's defence yours was in your back yard.

    I'm just waiting to see what happens if there's a penalty, there are two players on hat tricks.

    Bad timing.....article in the Evening Standard last night with the headline saying that the 2 central defenders playing today were the new Adams and Keown!

    I just went :o, I thought you meant the famous Maicon.

    Just googled, never heard of that one, but a sad story none the less. 25 is no age to go. :cry:

    Didn't Arsenal go 4-0 up pretty quickly against Newcastle, when they came back to 4-4?

    Definately first half

    Edit - it was 26 mins
