0-2, Premier League, Emirates, 20/8 -11
I have a feeling that this is not to be our season... Injuries, red cards, suspensions and now decisive own goals...
We deserved so much more than a defeat by two goals, we didn't look too likely to score but the defence was stunning! Defensively we've looked really good so far this season, lots of that is down to Vermaelen, he was amazing today, MOTM by far!
The first half was really tight and even, with no one looking more likely to score than the other, unfortunately we lost a bit of momentum when Koscielny picked up what looked like a back injury after just about fifteen minutes, Miquel came in to replace him and he did great!
Frimpong was sent off in the second half after receiving a second yellow card, but we managed just fine even though we were down to ten men, until the decisive moment when Miquel was clearing the ball from our box and it bounced off Ramsey's shoulder into goal.
As I mentioned earlier we never looked likely to score, and that didn't change after conceding one and in the dying minutes Liverpool sealed the game.
So back to the dreadful feeling you get after/during a defeat... Not a good start to the season but am hoping that the team is feeling better than I am at the moment so we might at least get to see some Champions League games this season..
