In reply to Jay Salhi. I think you're right. I also don't think they have found a better combination that Coq and Santi. We missed him a lot.

I thought having Coquelin back in the lineup made a big difference. He wins the ball back quickly after we lose possession, which puts a lot of pressure on the opposing defense.

Finn, I think your assessments are fair. Bellerin could have been spectacular if he had a winger for the first 60 minutes. Some of the playing in the later part of the game was superb. It was great to watch the crowd react to both the Spuds match and the Arsenal match. Any day that is a St. Totteringham’s day is a very good day.
I must say that if this team could have got into high intensity for more of their matches, it would have been a different championship story. There is no question that Wenger will feel quite vindicated and on a more worrisome note, the Board may be relishing their lack of investment decisions last summer.
