Was stockdale at fault?

Chambers beat Baldock because Bennett was WAY out of position. In fact you look at the first two goals and despair. Massive hole down our left, no one near Walcott for goal one, no one challenging Rosicky for goal two. He's still a class act but I wouldn't have been given that much space in the final ten minutes of a veterans game so no wonder he played that pass. At full speed I thought Stockdale could have done a lot better with the third which looked to me to have gone in down the centre from just outside the box. Looking at it on TV it actually went in a bit more to his right than I had thought and he was unsighted.

That's a long way of saying "no".

Same as Wednesday night! both goals coming from down the left hand side.

Bennett was ludicrously out of position for the first but Greers involvement for 2 & 3 was shameful, have a look

No, defence to blame. Worst error was Holla's in leaving a tight pass woefully short for the 3rd goal.

Some credit to Arsenal though. Clinical in finishing. That is the primary difference in the PL.

Yes Holla made the final error but Dunk shouldn't have even passed it to him in the first place. It should have been hoofed when he had the chance.

I have been one of the stockdale knockers but can't see how anyone could blame him for the goals today.

He has improved a lot since early season, still a little way to go for me to think he was worth £1m:whistle:( happy when they prove me wrong when I'm negative about them) but more than good enough to be our No1.
IF he has knockers he must be overweight but I can't see any evidence of either.Very good 'keeper IMHO.

Certainly not. His distribution is very good. One chipped ball to Bruno near the technical areas was so accurate, to get us on the move.
