A new year heralds new beginnings but it was the same old lapse in concentration from the Gunners defence as they threw away a lead at Craven Cottage.Positives:
With so many defensive injuries, it looked for large periods as though a victory was on the cards. To dominate at Craven Cottage is never easy but for a good hour or so, Fulham were well and truly under the thumb.
Negatives:
After recent dropped points against Manchester City and Wolves, this was a poor result. To go from winners just 5 minutes from time, to conceding a last minute clincher had real echoes of last season's capitulations about it.
Conclusion:
Johan Djourou's sending off really turned this tie in this one and Wenger's men will no doubt be gutted to have conceded so late on. Wojciech Sczesney, who has been fantastic this season, was at fault for the equaliser, flapping wildly at a corner, and later apologised to fans on Twitter.
