It may be too simplistic an opinion on yesterday’s match, but you could argue that Chelsea beat us because they had a goalkeeper and a centre forward. At the moment, we can’t score a goal, and can’t keep a clean sheet.

We played OK in the second half, but this is probably a moot point as Chelsea were already comfortably ahead and it would have been very different if they had to go for another goal or two.

Normally, we could blame Senderos after Drogba takes us to the cleaners, but this time it was all round sloppy defending that let him in for two simple goals.

Among all the abuse for our non saving goalkeeper and the poor form of the full backs, the centre half pairing of Gallas and Vermaelen has been deemed immune to criticism – I’m not really sure why, as we have conceded loads of goals and normally that position would receive the most stick. Having said that, they both played well again yesterday ; it was their team mates who once again let us down.

Bendtner’s introduction from the bench was greeted rapturously by the Away fans, a reception I was a bit bemused by ; No pressure, Nick! Just a hat trick before the end of the game would be handy. Needless to say, he didn’t really do much, and still doesn’t look 100% fit. Regarding proper game changing substitutions, a few years ago at White Hart Lane, at 1-0 down with 20 minutes to go Wenger made a triple substitution and brought on Bergkamp, Vieira and Ljungberg – That’s what I’m talking about. And yes, we got a result that time. The strength of the bench yesterday was incomparable.

We had a flare in the away end though! It was brilliant ; Well done that man for ignoring the ground regulations and smuggling that in. Having to let it off at 2-0 down was a bit embarrassing though.

As the title of this blog says, we are all in this together, and we win and lose as Arsenal fans ; If you want to break rank and leave comments demanding Wenger be sacked and Walcott buried under a patio, then that is your right, but the last thing we need right now is more negativity.

Get behind the team on Wednesday night, as the Scousers could be just two points behind if they beat us. It is now a massive game, and getting on the players backs is not gonna help anyone. This is the time when Gooners have to stand up and be counted – We all enjoy the good days, but the bad days come around too so we must stand together for a united front.

My last word on yesterday is thus – 90 minutes of football does not create 100 years of history.
