Firstly, great performance and a very professional display in the second half. However, is anyone slightly annoyed that we didn't get 5 or 6.
Forget Tottenham or Chelsea, the team I want us to beat the most has always been United. For the last 5-6 years we have been beaten on a regular basis with Fergie implementing the same tried and tested formula.
You had usual 2-0 old Trafford loss with the customary screw up during the home fixtures. Then you had the 8-2.
We managed to batter pool 4-1 last season to get some redemption but as comprehensive as it was on Sunday, a few more goals would have really topped it off.
We finally managed to turn up against United and express ourselves but If only Ramsey had made it 4 before half time or If Giroud and Ozil took their chances and if Ox didn't hit the post, the scoreline would have been so much more sweeter.
Anyone annoyed we didn't score more on Sun?

Not a negative and I am glad we didn't go all out in the second half. Just hoped we would have burried the chances we had

I would rather Arsenal win 3-0 than 5-2
so I was happy Arsenal killed the game early and did not go all out for an unnecessary 4th goal.

Castor you are becoming a parody of yourself...
Anyway I actually quite enjoyed shutting up shop and keeping them at arm's length the way we did. There was something quite satisfying about it, and the ability to do that will probably come in useful in some of the tougher games this season.
Besides, if Ramsey scores that sitter and Ox's little chip is an inch lower then it is a battering.

Or Ozil scores that 2nd chance he had, or Giroud sweeps home his shot.

Would have loved to win 5-0 if im honest.

What annoys me is how people are giving United credit for their second half performance. We took our foot off the gas and were too kind to them, should have just continued to tip them apart.

if Arsenal is up 3-0 and don't defend their lead, they get criticised
