ha' way the lads

Patrick
I am sick and tired of so called resspective­ epl managers coming on to thetv and saying "if we­ had a full strentgh team out we would have won or­ played better" Prima dona's get nowhere,­ whilst workhorses plod on and get the job done. Come­ January, I think there will be further additions to the­ team to strengthen the squad and to push a few who­ think they are an automatic choice.
The defensive­ combination of Mensah and Da silva with Cana infront of­ them was class and stopped all the forward play from­ Arsenal.

Malc. Quite right. When Arsenal lose, Wenger comes out­ with the same old "we didn't play"­ cliche.
The man is so arrogant, he can't be­ generous in defeat and accept that other teams can play­ as well.
Sunderland in large parts of the game stopped­ a very talented team playing good football and scored­ the winning goal. Isn't that what football's­ all about?
Points taken from Manchester United,­ Liverpool and Arsenal... NO COINCIDENCE.

all these comments about how Arsenal didnt play well??­ how about some positive comments about how well S/land­ played and played well to beat a top 4 side !!! Well­ done SAFC

Losing happens Arsenal supporters, u will get over it.­ I could have rubbed it in but i won't. I will­ however congratulate Sunderland for the win. (Spurs No1­ fan)

and stop making excuses "oh are players are­ injured" u have the strength and depth and had­ years to build the team wev had 6 months and are still­ building

who are ya safc on the rise to european football and­ next year challenging for champions lge

Thanks Brendan c @ 138. you hit the nail on the head.­ the best comment by far. it is so unfortunate that most­ people here allow their snetiments to overwhelm their­ sense of reasoning. Arsenal will bounce back, and can,­ mark my word 'CAN' possibly win the league.­ just like Chelsea, Mna utd, Liverpool and others CAN.­ That is the view of reasonable football people.

There is nothing wrong with a team loosing a game, is­ sunderland not a premiership side? so what is the big­ deal if they win another premiership side. that is why­ it is a league, after all they won Liverpool and almost­ beat man utd at old traford. i think most people­ posting here do not understand the concept of football,­ we have 11 vs 11, sometimes the best 11 on the day­ wins, and sometimes the best does not win. Arsenal was­ poor against sunderland. get on with it, that's­ football. Arsenal played better than Man utd, but lost.­ This does not determine who wins the league, there is­ still so many games to be played. Any team can still­ win the league. Man utd, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool,­ Spurs, Mancity, even HULL. Can any of you honestly put­ £100 that Chelsea will not drop ponts?. like Roy Keane­ frankly said... 'GET ON WITH IT' .

arsenal need to to really sort out their defence

Arsenal were not good enough.They must learn this­­­ lesson before an important clash against Chelsea.Come­­­ on Arsenal.

Chelsea was beaten by Wigan, Man U beaten by Barnsly...­ Sunderland won against Arsenal so that is the name of­ the game fools. The league is still wide open so relax.­ We will bounce against Chelsea!!

Arsenal showed again that they have not got that­ quality for big games and they will fall apart when a­ phisical team play against them ,,, they have won all­ their games against middle class teams in leagues and­ they are not competitive enough for the title ,,,,,­ they have to fight again for a place in CL for next­ season and try to keep their important players at the­ end of the season or winter transfer and in this case­ they are not also strong enough to do that .

Almost all Gunners were on International duty and Away­ match didn't helped at all
In contrast, almost all­ Sunderland players were fresh and had 2 weeks for­ training...
Otherwise, do you think, they would have­ matched Gunner's pace for 90 minutes.

Chelsea,­ ManU and Liverpool were lucky to get a Home match after­ International break...

But no issues...we will start­ another unbeaten run starting from Tuesday until end of­ seaon to be champions again.
