Bolton Wanderers 2 - 0 Arsenal FC

Disappointing...utterly disappointing. I have not seen such a lacklustre Arsenal side such as the one fielded against Bolton Dec 3.
They were beaten flat and deservedly so.
There wasn't enough aggression and the Gunners were totally outmuscled all game long.
Notably, Jens Lehmann had a decent game and couldn't do much about both goals.
The first one was a free header that I feel Cesc Fabregas should have dealt with while the second was simply Gilberto making a fool of himself.
With a mistake like that I wonder how he keeps getting into the Brazilian national team and has a World Cup winner's medal to his name.
The strikers were isolated for most of the game basically due to a weak central midfield.
That's that. Hoping for better...
