Not a great performance, it was a strange game, but a great result at a club we have a poor record at. We did look like we missed theos pace and movement but its not there so we have to adapt. Today we did.

Real good result today Steve. We would have lost this game in years gone by. When we have seen United teams in the past and Chelsea last year they won games they had no right to win but that's what makes a champion and that's what we are doing right now. I can remember us been points clear a couple of times a few years ago but I never believed we could do it and knew the pack would catch us and take over but I have a real confidence in this squad. If we wether the next few games with the players we have out and then have those players back with rosikey, Wiltshire and welbeck back as well I think we can start to get excited Steve.
I saw you called that cazorla would be put out wide and in my heart of hearts I agreed with you because we all know wenger to well but I'm glad he just stuck Campbell out wide. He got a goal as well and played ok so maybe that is the rub we needed and it might give the boy the confidence to show the reason why we bought him and nurtured him for all these years.
Today's result at the Liberty is arguably on of the results of the season for us because Swansea are a good side and at home not many teams come away with three points and goals. Another man mountain performance from petr cech what a signing and he has provided the same impact as Sanchez last year and I think he is the best keeper Arsenal have ever had. Yes I know he has a long way to go but he is a world beater.

We won at Swansea in 2013 and were top of the table going into the new year when injuries took their toll particularly losing Giroud and Ramsey who was in incredible form that season.
The diffeence is this season is we are a much stronger outfit with a very top quality keeper and a fantastic real DM plus we have Sanchez and a fully operational Mesut Ozil this time round, things haven't looked this good for aa very long time.

As i said and i agree with what you say gro, we coped today and that's great. I am not so sure about cambell on the right and giroud up top against bayern. We will be forced back even more and they know we won't be catching them on the counter. It will be a test and a half on weds and cech and the defence will be given the audition for best defence and goalkeeper. A clean sheet will even make me think different, its a proper test.

Different game that mate! Giroud if he is disciplined will be an out let and hold the ball up, a point will be amazing . If results go our way in the other game it might not matter . Just win the last two games.
