Last time Arsenal conceded 8 was back in December 1896 against the mighty Loughborough Town. Plenty of teams will go to Old Trafford with less injuries and put up more of a fight. Taking off RVP, the captain AFTER they go like 4 down, and leaving Arshavin on the whole game.. if Wenger thought the papers were harsh last week, he better not buy one tomorrow..
Welbeck's goal was pathetic from a defensive perspective, can you imagine Keown or Adams being pushed off the ball like that? Or even Cahill..
