A disappointing home defeat against our great rivals saw Wenger bear the fans brunt for a substitution that made no sense.Positives:
Our fightback was rousing and after RVP's equaliser, we looked like the only side capable of going on to win it. Alex Oxlade Chamberlain's full debut was a breath of fresh air and every time the youngster got the ball, he ran at United and scared their defence. You always felt like he was capable of making something happen.
Negatives:
With the score at 1-1 and Oxlade Chamberlain by far our best player, Wenger's decision to replace him with the lazy Arshavin proved a calamity just minutes later as the Russian railed to track back, makign a half hearted challenge on Antonio Valencia, who slid the ball across to Danny Welbeck for United's last gasp winner.
Conclusion:
What could have been three points turned out to be a home defeat thanks to Wenger's inept tactics. The pressure is on the Frenchman like never before as a chorus of boo's rang out from the home fans as Oxlade Chamberlain was subbed off for Andrey Arshavin.
