Well played Sunderland. We were dreadful in the final third and until Theo came on, like we weren't allowed in wide areas. Don't know where the next goal is coming from.
Pulis will fancy his chances.

No plan B. Teams park the bus. That's it. Can't break them down. So frustrating!

If we win on Saturday we will have 75 points. We will finish third. Last year fourth but with 79 points. Have we progressed at all.

Three home games on the spin without a goal. Can't add much that hasn't already been said. We have effectively secured 3rd which is the only good thing from this evening. I would make some wholesale changes for the West Brom game.

Think that says more about the league's quality.

Progress in the sense that there haven't been any big game thrashings. Still, not good enough when it matters. Fluffed lines, poor finishing.........seen it all before!

Didn't even watch the game, but seeing the scoreline I'm assuming we were dross again.

Bollox to the Prem now, looking forward to the FA cup.

Apparently, in the last 3 home games against Chelsea, Swansea and Sunderland, we have attempted a total of 51 shots without finding a goal!

We seem to have had the same problem this season and Swansea have also done the double over us too.

Villa would be crazy to try anything different to Swansea & Sunderland. We will play tippy tappy as per usual and they can get get us on the break.

Well if he does you can be sure we won't break em down - that'll set Wenger off in a tantrum

We haven't been at our best since the Liverpool home game back in early April. First half against Hull was good but we have struggled for goals otherwise. Combination of good defending, poor finishing and maybe been a bit unlucky at times, I don't know. It's a little worrying going into the final I must admit. I do hope he rests a few players on Sunday. There is no need to be playing Sanchez and Ozil again for example.

Didn't watch the game last night. heard we played well just lacked the knife edge finish. Sanchez sounded knackered as well, he could do with a rest.

3rd is secure, rest everyone before the cup final and play a reserve team against West Brom.

we have just the W Brom game to get over this crazy anxiety in front of goal. Plus side, I think it's firmed up Wenger's idea to buy another striker. Who might be the problem as obviously the highest prices are paid for world class strikers.

He's muttering about Rosicky staying another year. Hope that's true and that Wenger plays him, starting this weekend.

Would really like Rosicky to stay on another season but I wouldn't blame him if he wanted to go elsewhere to get more playing time. He's due a testimonial so that may be a carrot to keep him at the Emirates. We shall see.

Szczesny is on 'A League Of Their Own' tonight.
I suppose he has to fill his time somehow.
