Ridiculous innit, how a team suddenly starts playing well again when their two most influential players return.

Going forward we've looked a lot better even if the end product hasn't been there. Runs from midfield in behind and allowing Giroud to drift and link play up.

Not quite as comfortable in possession as we should be as they've gone 4-4-2 and so Per/Kosc are always occupied and so we don't have the same 'out' ball of turning back and recycling possession through them two.

Dat finish.

That's what I mean though, Giroud drifts wide as he knows Ramsey will make the effort to get forward. In weeks gone by Giroud would've either stayed central or if he went wide he'd have been crossing to Podolski and Podolski alone.

He starts the move with a little injection of pace on the halfway line too.

That's a great finish from Podolski, he's had a really good game. Don't think that's a foul in the build-up either, certainly less of a foul than the one on Ozil in the box.

To repeat my criticism of West Ham vs. Liverpool, Hull seem to be putting in twice as much effort to create half as many chances.

Ramsey's forward runs have resulted in two goals. No one else in our side would carry on running into the box like he does.

They've been sloppy on the ball but soaked up pressure really well and scored two very good goals. Return to early-season Arsenal, really.
Yeah. Always a bit nervy before we score though.

I'm mixed on whether I like new Arsenal or not. But the great thing about it is I feel really comfortable when we get 2-0 these days. Might be wrong but I can't remember us throwing away a two goal lead this season. Of course, I've jinxed now, but.

I really do want to boof Aarom Ramsey though. People at the start of the season said it was just form, conveniently forgetting his January-May form in the 12/13 season, and now he's come back after a ridiculous lay off and has picked up exactly where he left off. The boy's a player.

As stupid as this sounds, Ramsey made a huge difference straight away against Everton. Such a shame he got injured.

Arsenal rode a bit of luck in opening 20 minutes as defence looked all over the place but after they scored it has been easy really. Sealed 4th today I reckon too as this was the toughest remaining game.

Think they probably should have scored a few more goals really Hull could have been murdered in this second-half, GD may still play a part.

NuArsenal don't give a **** about goal difference. That's why they never push after going two up and concede 5 or 6 when they have a bad day.
