He and Krul had been exchanging words throughout the match I'm not sure who started it but it seemed that both got under each others' skin. Krul shouldn't go disrespecting an absolute legend and needless to say van persie certainly had the last laugh
According to some reports especially on BBC, it seems after the final goal. Van Persie mocked Krul for time wasting by tapping an invisible watch on his wrist
It was funny seeing van persie stare krul down for most of the match after the initial incident, he had that look in his eye as if to say "if you make even the slightest mistake in goals I WILL punish you!"
If I wwere Robin, I will tap the an invisible watch as well. That useless keeper was very annoying. Playing time wasting tactics even at 45 min of the game. WTF
Because he knew Krul was time wasting. That's why we boo'd him. He took about 20 seconds to kick each ball and paid for it with the 5 minutes added time
So what about Joe Hart. The second best? Right? Anyway, sorry for calling him useless but his tactics was really annoying. I hope the two players make a truce and move on with their game
It all depends on how much Chelsea can turn around their form. The win against stoke was good but they still have to worry about the UCL tie. If Chelsea knocked Spurs out of the top 4 that would be epic!
WAlcott had a great game. Van persie was not as sharp as usual but he seemed to be distracted throughout the match by whatever issue he had with Krul. Arsenal were very fortunate to get that goal in the last minute but statistically they were far better than Newcastle on the night. The Geordies were lucky to have even scored that goal.
It was great to see the Gunners get back at Newcastle after the previous 3 frustrating fixtures (losing 0-1, THAT 4-4 draw and the feisty 0-0 which saw Gervinho and Barton at each other's throats). Only 1 point behind 3rd place now!
Proud of my gunners.... Squad bounding massively and rosicky is really showing it.... Walcott played finally well but has to sustain this form through out the season not limited to a couple of games like this.... Ox was ok. Krul is out of my fantasy squad now
To all the people out there saying arsenal are just lucky to win all these matches, we are not, newcastle defended the whole match and it was our sheer determination to win was what got us through these last few games. Man utd have been scoring last minute goals for decades now so yeah don't show us disrespect
You sound exaperated X6allx. Haha. Don't. You guys played a vey negative game with your arrogant Keeper running down time. It would have been unlucky for Arsenal for you guys to win. How many times did you guys tried our keeper? You don't even deserve a point from this game because you came to sit deep and expecting a counter attack. Tell your players to play game not coming to park the bus. BTW, you too enjoy your 3 point loss. Hulala
Err @X6alalx: WTF are you on about? Spurs game was by no means last min and neither was milan. Go check out this game stats, possession wise, chances wise the better team won. Stop complaining and focus on your own team
Not in other competitions but for the EPL, the last 4 games have all been comebacks.... Henry against sunderland 0-2 down to spuds to win it 5-2 Liverpool last minute Newcastle last minute
The last 4 games have been brilliant from the Gunners.... Champs didn't say "last minute goals" in last 4 games.... All he said was last 4 games.... Try to read....
I would tell you to sit the f**k down but I guess somebody's ass has been whipped too hard to even suggest sitting down....
Nothing wrong with grinding out last minute wins like Utd. Has been doing. That's one of the reasons Utd. Are champions, if Arsenal wants to imitate that I won't object
