A stormy second half could be coming our way.

 

[giveusfalmerplease]

hope hughton doesnt try to shut up shop in the second half as we could get caught

We need to stay tight first 15-20 mins of second half as they will come right at us.

 

[Mackenzie]

Get in and reorganise. Happy with the lead though.

 

[KZNSeagull]

This is what it is all about chaps! What a half. What a team. Come On!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Si Gull]

I feel sick

 

[Napier]

Made it to half time. The lead really should be more, given our chances and possession.Come on The Albion, dig in.

 

[Gabbafella]

Other than the last 5 minutes, we look good for the 3pts. More of the same in the second half, just hope our heads don't drop because of that goal.

This is going to be very, very tough. We can't defend for 45 minutes.

I think he should do that to an extent, giving Ozil etc no time or space, but with Izquierdo and Murray free rein to counter.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

That's the only problem with arsenal, they have enough individual skill to hurt you......but I believe a team ethic will win the day. Best I've seen for a while, could be more goals for us, they're woeful at the back!

 

[AmexRuislip]

Same for the 2nd half please lads, keep your heads and dig in for a win

No we need to carry on in the same way and look to get a 3rd goal

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Strange. We're 2-1 up against Arsenal and instead of being delighted I'm actually gutted. Gutted that Arsenal are somehow still in this match.

i think it got too easy and the intensity in the game dropped. Hopefully that last five minutes will serve as a wake up call and we'll go on and batter them(or at least win....).

That said...****ing hell! What a half!

 

[Si Gull]

Hopefully CH will just tell them to go out and do the same again. Going to be unbearably nervy unless we get a 3rd.

Relaly don’t want to be negative as the first 35 minutes were amazing but that was a shocking last 5/10 minutes. Can’t believe we’ve let them back in. They were by far the worst league team we’ve had at the Amex this season before their goal. Their confidence was at rock bottom and they couldn’t do the basics. Should have been 3/4 up.

Tough second half now.

Yes, yes, yes.... THIS!

Chris will re-focus the team at half time and do t forget we have Locadia to come...

So frustrating isn't it? I guess that's the difference. They can score at will against the lower teams...

 

[Bodian]

I now want the most boring 45 minutes of football we have ever seen. No shots, no goals, nothing. Just a win...
