Completely agreed mate...we were downright terrible..the worst performance since Anfield last season.
We were very disorganized and the midfield was a mess..we were playing hopeless long balls to the extremely useless Adebayor..and our defence was shambles..i thought we deserved to lose by a bigger margin.
IMO absences cant be counted as an excuse today..we fielded four full fledged internationals in: Gilberto(Brazil Captain), Diarra (France Starter) , Rosicky (Czech captain) Eboue(Ivory Coast Starter)...the fact that they were overrun by an average Boro midfield was ashaming.
Heres my take on our players today.
Almunia 6: He wasnt at fault for any of the goals today..was pretty solid when called upon
Sagna 5 Couldnt really deal with Downing, and he didnt offer shit in attack..very dissapointing game by him.
Toure 5 Gave away a pointless penalty, Aliadere run circles around him today..i also hated the fact that he was playing long balls all game long
Gallas 6 was solid and had to put up with Toures basic positioning mistakes
Clichy 5.5 left a lot of gaps behind and he offered virtually nothing going forward.
Gilberto 5 didnt do much wrong, but didnt do much right either..his passing and composure on the ball are both terrible..but he wasnt bad defensively
Diarra 4 kept giving balls away..and chased shadows all game long..was outclassed and outplayed by Rochemback
Rosicky 5 he was supposed to step up today with Cesc and Hleb out..but all he did was misplacing passes all game long
Eboue 4.5 was he even playing?? he was a passenger today..terrible performance
Eduardo 3.5 When will he ever adapt..he was always showing promising signs..but its December already..promise wont do..its time to deliver..something he hasnt looked close in doing in the EPL.
Adebayor 0.5 His first touch is non existent..and he's in his own comfort zone now..thinking that with RVP out, he cant be benched...Bentdner should get his chance after this horror show from Adebayor.

But Arsenal's whole offensive game revolves around Hleb and Fabregas. Without those two, you are half a team. That is only my layman's opinion of course. 
Agree on Adebayor but also Eduardo. What the hell is with him? I have rarely seen him make one useful move on the pitch.

i mean i know how important Hleb and Cesc are..but if a couple of injuries can stop us from beating the 18th placed team in the league, then maybe we dont deserve to win it.
