Thomas Vermaelen, the new captain, eh? He's the core of the defense, so it's understandable.. I would have expected someone in midfield to take skipper. Good choice, though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackhawkrush Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 In the games I've seen so far this season, I noticed the refs giving out yellow cards for embellishment in the penalty area. It should be done in other spots on the field. It would end this Oscar-type acting very quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FountainOfSyrinx Posted August 18, 2012 Author Share Posted August 18, 2012 Man on the match: Santi Cazorla. Really nice play from the new guy MISS of the match: Olivier Giroud.. disappointing.

He gave up a stinker in Estonia on Wednesday... He was actually really good IMO. 2 really solid stops in the first half that kept Sunderland from the three points in the end. I honestly don't think he was challenged at all in the second half, but I may not be remembering one or two Sunderland attempts. Possession seemed like 80-20 in all honestly, but Arsenal couldn't unlock the Sunderland back 4. It was maddening. Giroud's miss really stands out, unfortunately.

Damn you Liverpool. You break my heart. Whilst I felt a certain schadenfreude yesterday, I felt sorry for Brendan Rodgers. Suarez missed chance after chance, I've never seen so many chances missed, and Agger and Skrtel had mares. Unfortunately I think it will all come together soon.
