Notice how Arsenal conceded 2 completely stupid goals. They're worse than us at the back, but it doesn't matter because they've scored five...

The problem is that decent sides have much better defences and attacks than Reading.

Arsenal haven't impressed me at all tonight to be honest. I know that sounds odd but I just think Reading have been Conference-standard crap.

But that's the point, they don't have to impress or play well, they score a number of goals which means it doesn't matter.

We play really well and come away with draws and even defeats. That's why we need to bolster our attack in January, rather than worrying about defence.

Arsenal have the attacking play to break teams down when they park the bus, but we're the opposite. That's why we'll do comparably well against the 'big' teams but falter more often than we should against weaker opposition.
 
Not impressed with Arsenal. Come against someone with a better defence, and to be fair, that could be anyone who fields training cones instead of a back four and they're fooked.
