Enough with the "deserved" lead, they didn't "deserve" the goal, they don't "deserve" the lead.

Which is not to say Arsenal weren't pathetic.

Trying in vain to think of an Arsenal player that showed any quality. Maybe Mertesacker and Koscielny. Everybody else needs a kick up the backside.
Kosc may be a real roller coaster when he plays for France but the guy is a stud for us.

I guess on the bright side, we can't play any worse than that.

JB, whether or not Monreal was fouled on that goal, the better team by far on the half is ahead. Hence, "deservedly."

Shocking from Arsenal. The one positive is Southampton can't keep up this work rate for 90 minutes. The only problem is I don't know if Arsenal would have enough to score 2 goals. We let them have too much of the ball in the first half, the lack of pressure we put on opposition defense is good against some sides but Southampton like to play out from the back. We gave them so much space and time to build up their play. We have to take a gamble now, go all out, press and look to take over this game.

Cazorla, Arteta and Ozil all giving the ball up too cheaply certainly hasn't helped the cause either.

Yes I understand the logic. But in reality they did not score a "deserved" goal (not just the climb on Monreal, the initial foul on Mert). Therefore in refuse to call it a deserved lead.

I haven't had a chance to catch any of this one (swamped prepping for SOTU tonight) but I'd wager removing one of Flamini or Arteta for the Ox would pay dividends.
