What a result, great comeback from Chelsea. Super performance from Drogba.

Chelsea go up to 2nd!

Pffft. Grand anti climax sunday

Turned out a very good game. Chelsea deserved the win, the comeback was very strong and resilient.

Grant proved all the Chelski Mourinho fans wrong again and embarrassed each and every one of them.

The difference today was that Carvalho & Terry were excellent whilst our CB pairing were exposed too easily. Drogba helped make that difference as well and Adebayor, well if I could give him a rating it'd be in the minus. -2/10 perhaps? Harsh maybe, but the guy did nothing right - no presence, no real work ethic, every high ball he lost and he gave so many dumb fouls away that gave Chelsea some great breaks in defence.

Almunia and Clichy were our best players. It was really nice to see Sagna score and get a goal and for most of the game we looked the better side until we sat back a bit to defend our goal and Chelsea's strong comeback squashed us.

Drogba immense, but helped by some poor defending in all honesty. What Touré was at for the winner I'll never know.

We aren't out of the race, but I'm not confident we will win it. Man Utd look too strong and Chelsea are getting stronger. Still, it's a great season for us and we're still in a great position in Europe which is a tournament that we desperately want to win.

Another mention to Carvalho as well, he was immense and helped make Terry look really strong as well. Great pairing.

Great exciting game but we came on the wrong side of the scoreline. Good to see Sagna get on the score-sheet, Adebayor has just lost his touch at the moment. Van Persie did well but he needs games to get back into the grove of things. I still hate Eboue with a passion, Walcott needs to start in his place. Walcott didn't do anything once he got on, but wasn't his fault, they never got the ball to him since they continued to try to exploit Essien. Almunia played a great game, made a bunch of great saves. Nothing really he could have done with the two Drogba goals.

In the end after Eduardo's injury, we've thrown the league away and given it to United. But there's still a few games left and anything can still happen as it has already. I think we now need to concentrate on the 5 important CL games.

You mean 2 CL games

Anyone else think Arsenal could be doing much better than Adebayor? He's scored plenty this year, credit to him, but I just think he's playing above his level at Arsenal

No it's 5 to win it.

As I said, 2 games for Arsenal

Forgot you're a pool fan. Think you guys should concentrate on beating Everton and getting the 4th spot secured.

He did, I was watching Sky sports news and a Chelsea fan said what has happened to Chelsea, get Mourinho back. lol. They just won and he still gets slated.

No problem. I'll be there next Sunday cheering them on v the BS. As for the Champions League...well these 5 games wont be easy

Papa5murf, do you think the title race if over for Arsenal or do you think you can come back?

Not 100% over. There have been many twists and turns throughout the year, even ones that none of us could have seen coming. There's still a few big games to come, but the chances of a comeback are slim. We need to win-out to even have a chance. But even then we need a bunch of other things to go our way, and United and Chelsea to drop points.

I feel we need to put all our energy and resources into the CL now. At least in that competition, it's all depended on our play, and we don't have to rely on another team to screw up. We win, we advance; and in the finals, we win, we are champions. It's 100% on us to win it.

I know, crap innit?

The 2 best teams lose today

what a terrible terrible day all round.

I know you asked 5murf, but I'll give my view anyway.

You cannot say that it's over until it is actually over or it is impossible for us to win it. We can still win it and in football anything can happen. But I think you will see Arsenal prioritise the Champions League in the coming weeks and I don't think Man Utd will slip up too many times in the League games.

Anything can happen, and this team has enough quality to win every game from here on in - although that would be very difficult and even if we do so, I don't see Man Utd dropping 5 points or more.

Either way, it's no big loss. We have had a great season. To be beaten only twice at this stage and considered challengers and having sat at the top for so long with such injuries is a great achievement. Great progression for this squad and I doubt many Arsenal fans will be feeling negative at the end of the season.

Man Utd are very strong. The top four are strong and this League is getting stronger and more difficult to crack.

Did Gallas sit in the centre circle at the end and sulk?

not today

I wish sky wouldn't do goal celebrations in slow motion sometimes. I sadly saw Drogbas bits shake about

Scarred for life.

I knew you weren't watching for the football.

I would be quite upset if we don't lift up any silverware this year. We've played so brilliantly all season (till the Eduardo mishap which has derailed us). However; on the bright side, all these guys are young, and they will only get better and better and more mature. The future is very bright for Arsenal. We have our core in place, now Wenger needs to go out and get some quality cover for key positions and get more depth in the squad so we can truly compete on all 4 fronts to the fullest of our abilities regardless of fatigue and injuries.

Its a shame he dosn't show as much passion against Chelsea as he does versus Birmingham. I thought everyone was saying he did it because he cared so much

No it was great. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Well when you support Newcastle anything else is enjoyable I suppose
