Reminds me of the Stoke (I think!) game a couple of seasons ago. 3-0 early on, finished 3-2.

This topsy-turvy stuff isn't going to end until Wenger is held more accountable for not even mounting a title challenge for nearly a decade. There is absolutely no accountability at all. It's why things have become so stale.

Theo needs to return, Sanchez and Lucas need to start, bench Giroud.

Fair play for the comeback but why we had to be 3-0 down before we got going is something that needs looking at.

Can't get excited at being 3-0 down to Bournemouth even it did end 3-3. They were clinically dispatched with by Chelsea the other day.

Great character to come back and get the point.

I called him a donkey a few days ago and he scored GOTS.

What do I know?

Not a bad point but in the scheme of things we needed a win to keep in contention in case of a slip up by Chelsea.

Should have been a foul on Bellerin for their third goal and we would have been celebrating a win but that would have been harsh on Bournemouth who deserved at least a point to go with our poor display for the first hour.

What are the odds on Arsene Wenger saying we did not win because we did not get enough rest between games

Xhaka played poorly. Mis-placed passes and stupid little fouls all over the place. That penalty he gave away was unbelievable. But the push on Bellerin was identical and the ref didn't give it.

Two points dropped at the end of the day. Good comback but the first sixty five minutes were possibly the worst we've been for years. Ramsey was shocking.

You have to say Bournemouth played great in that first half

Some of the football they played was fantastic

Agree with that. Silly penalty conceded by Xhaka too.
Why did the ref ignore the push on Bellerin that led to the third Bournemouth goal?
To be fair though they were great in the first half and deserved the lead

I can feel your frustration!

Talk about a game of 2 halves (or rather 60/20)

Well... Quite a game, not expected to be 3-0 down before the game, and certainly didn't think we'd get anything out of the game when it was. As Thierry said, with all due respect, we shouldn't drop points vs Bournemouth but I can't say I'm disappointed considering.

It's frustrating that the whistle went at 5.55 mins after the 90 was up, I'd have thought another couple of minutes could have been added to the 6 considering the fact that there were subs and a goal. Rambo needs to start performing again, he's not been right for quite some time now. We're missing Ozil a lot, Cazorla perhaps even more, there isn't any creativity through the middle without them.

Did Alexis look pissed off after the game?

Mustafi still unbeaten in a PL match

He looked pretty pissed off all through the game and who can blame him.

Ospina will obviously play in the Cup at the weekend and if he does ok he should get a run of games. Cech is a bit of a liability these days.

Preston away will be no walk in the park. A real banana skin of a game and all the other FA Cup cliches

Well we also dropped points and Klopp was not happy about playing two days after the last match
