Surprise Song Sunday: If I Had A Gun - Noel Gallagher

Let me fly you to the moon

My eyes have always 

Followed you around the room

'Cause you're the only

God that I will ever need

I'm holding on and waiting for the moment

To find me.

Kind of like Oasis, but different.

Just a few disparate points about Arsenal's loss draw against Norwich last night. 

• Why do we insist on flooding forward when we're 3-2 up in the last ten minutes? Or when we're 1-0 up in the first 60 seconds? Or any time we're in the lead? Is it really that hard to form two banks of four to hold on to the ball for a bit?
• I'd be mad if I were van Persie. You know, I'd be all like, what the hell, how many goals do I need to score so that the lead is big enough for you numpties to hold on to?
• This is the most upsetting result of the season. Actually. For what it means, and for how it came about. 
• Vermalaen is quite mediocre in his defensive positioning. However, the goal leakage is not just his fault. It's substantially the fault of a midfield that seems incredible reluctant to track back, even in situations when the defence is clearly being overrun. It seems like schoolboy football to me. You know, all glory to the goalscorers, who cares about the defenders and all that. 
• This was a mid-table team who, theoretically, had nothing to play for. Playing in our stadium. And they gave us a massive game. What is going on with that?
• Spurs are probably going to get third place now. Oh my. That's the best case scenario. Newcastle might even pip us. 
• I cannot believe all this.
