Lack of concentration in the last minute, what a pity. And Diaby almost scored an og. OMG.

good analysis Tieneich, i thought the exact same about the loose ball situation and klinnsman n gang are spot on about our defensive lapses in judgement. Lose your concentration for a second and you have the equalizer in stoppage time. Tough to watch, that is for sure. Thanks so much again Arsenalist for the full highlights!

Thanks for putting up full highlights! I find them a lot easier to watch than the ones broken up by goal, it’s much appreciated.

1. Hangover

Players seems to be a little tired, just like against Birmingham on Saturday. We were getting beat a lot on loose balls (excuse my basketball term), except Mr. Song.

2. Give them some credits

AZ played well. They had some spot on passing, and gritty mentality. They began to work really hard after the first goal. Maybe Koeman just knows how to play us?

3. Missing Little Mozart’s magic

Magics included: holding on the possessions, turning defense back on offense, being at the right place at the right time, and having an incredible field vision. Rosicky makes our offense and defense better. Same can be said to Denilson.

4. Diaby’s confidence

The own goal nightmare in Old Trafford seemed to have crashed Diaby’s confidence. He has been playing close to bad (or not in sync with his teammates) since then. Today he almost repeated that mistake. Hopefully he can gain some confidence.

5. Vito is trying to prove it…, too hard.

Giving himself too much pressure is never good, especially when he is fighting for a spot again Almunia. The nerve is showing the last couple games.

6. Finally, not a bad game.

AZ didn’t play bad. They played so much better than Olympiakos. But really like having the Olymps just one point behind us.
