Didn't get to watch the game last night

Gabriel was ok but I think his injury was a bit of a blessing in disguise for us.

Looked far more assure when kosc came on

A game with complete different halfs. We were awful first and stepped our game up in the second with beautiful interchanges between our lines.

I think the whole team was good second half. Every played raised their personal game.

Giroud scored another massive goal. A poacher's goal. He linked up very well in the second half. First half he was completely isolated when our passing was absolute abysmal again.

Sanchez also an example how the game went. He had a terrible first half but the second half he was pure brilliant and was involved in everything that was good. Brilliant individual skill for his goal.

Kos was our "worst" defender yesterday. Merte looked very solid and didnt make any mistake.

Fair play to Mertersacker came back with a strong performance. Alexis grew into the game. Wenger trust paid off. Özil and Cazorla were our best players in an away game again which is good to see of course.

Bit harsh castor, for the first 30Min we were under loads of pressure, kos came on just as it was easing and we were finally getting into the game.

Back to game...

First 30-35 Min was shocking, couldnt keep hold of the ball and it was defense vs attack. They didnt have too many shots but had us pinned back

Grew into the game after 35 Min and held onto the ball well until creating a couple of half chances.

After HT absolutely dominated QPR, had a clear pen denied on Ozil when he was grabbed by Henry just when he was about to score a tap in. Created loads of chances but Green was in fine form.

Our 1st goal ws slightly lucky but after than Sanchez made a right meal of a 1v1 by deciding to have a sandwich before shooting. Luckily he scored a min or 2 later. Created loads more chances but Green saved QPR.

We then let in the standard poor goal after poor work from Kos/Gibbs but we were confortable as QPR didnt created bug ger all after there goal.

good win however we should have scored at least 4 goals.

Thanks, chaps. Seems we just went there and got the job done, and so can't complain.

Hope Gabriel's injury isn't too sinister as we can't do without CB cover. Happy with the 3 points - onwards and upwards!

I wish someone had told me that last night, I was sat there refreshing the 'latest scores' on BBC sports app fully expecting a second.
