Sheaf Saint

Forster my MOTM, purely for the excellent save he made from Sanchez when it was still 1-0. Did so well to get down and stop it, and if that had gone in, I doubt we would have gone on to win.

That's exactly my point. None of them went in did they.

Wowzer. What a superb team performance today. Couldn't be happier with that result, especially with WHam dropping points and Liverpool foooking it up against Leicester. Really should have had more goals though. JWP could easily have had a hat-trick. And I have to say I'm starting to get a little concerned about Pelle's goalscoring form. He really needs one to go in soon to get his confidence back up, because he has missed some real sitters recently. Can we start to dream about the CL now?

WTF is this commentator on about? He reckons the two goals Arsenal conceded were the kind of thing you would expect to see on a sunday morning park level match. Did he actually see Mane's finish?

I'm a massive bag of nerves here. 4 mins added time.

Sit down and shut up Wenger. Why do managers feel it necessary to have a pop at the fourth official for decisions made by the ref / linesmen?

Yet another golden opportunity not taken by JWP.

Phew. Gardos is a very lucky boy to still be on the pitch.

He's a professional footballer and he had a free shot on goal. He HAS to at least hit the target there.

WTF!? How did that not go in FFS!?

JWP should really work on his shooting. We could be 4-0 up if he could hit a moving ball properly.

Fan-bloody-tastic. And Tadic very nearly makes it 3-0. The Arse will be fuming about that second goal though. What a crap goal to give away from their point of view.

No they're not

Should have been 2-0 there.

Wow! What a finish that is! Take a bow son!

Exactly. They have had their fair share of good luck with dodgy refereeing decisions. I think it was against WBA last season when they rescued a point after one of their players (can't remember who) ran into the box, fell sideways into a defender who had made no challenge, and conned the ref into giving the penalty. Don't remember Mourinho complaining too loudly about inconsistent refereeing after that one.

I was worried how our limited squad would cope with those two games so close together, so to get 4 points from them is about as good as we could have expected really. Didn't get to watch the game today, but it I've seen the highlights and it sounds like we deserved to get the draw by restricting Chelsea to only one shot on target. No surprise to see Moanrinho complaining about the non-penalty, but the ref got it spot on IMO. There was contact but Fabregas was clearly already falling over by the time he collided with Targett. Bring on the Arse!

Morgan, Wanyama, Gardos and Fonte will all be over their suspensions. JWP is now back in the squad, and hopefully Tadic will be suitably rested now. Pretty much a full squad to choose from apart from Cork, and obviously Bertrand cannot play. We can go into this one confident of getting a result. If Newcastle can beat them then so can we.

Straight red card for serious foul play or violent conduct means a three match ban, so yes he will.

Apart from a 5-10 minute spell in the first half, and conceding a disappointingly soft goal late on, we never looked like throwing this one away. The 3-5-2 formation seems to be working against the lesser teams, but I doubt we will see it in the next few games. Mane did very well today, a much improved display than against Sheff Utd when he looked terrible. Hats off to him. Back-to-back wins is just what we needed as we head into another tough run of fixtures. I just wish I had gone with my first instinct this morning. I was going to put a fiver on 3-1 with Bertrand to score any time, but I changed my mind at the last moment and chose Clyne instead. Gutted.

Vic on for Davis

3-0! Toby!!!!

Hard to believe it's the same guy who looked so poor against Sheff Utd.

Bertrand! Get in!

Can you actually substantiate any of this?
