Is Portsmouth's defense that bad or is Arsenal just that good? James looked like he was lost in the woods and surrounded by wolves.

I was at the game, CW, and it was probably a combination of both. Portsmouth have big financial problems and have had to sell a lot of players. Arsenal have started the season well, and they play an attacking, fluid, passing-and-movement game which, when it works, leaves opponents chasing shadows. James actually played well and made a couple of very good saves.
Arsenal are often criticised for trying to "pass the ball into the net". This is basically what they were able to do for three of the goals.

I was quite impressed with James. Equally but oppositely impressed with the "help" he got from his defenders. On a couple of the goals/shots it looked like the defenders just didn't care. I suppose if they're just not that great, they were confused by Arsenal. I had a strong impression of a lack of effort though.

I'm relieved that none of the rest of our squad disappeared upwards in the final days of the transfer window.
Yet we managed to beat Leicester with all our proper strikers injured, and a kid up front. This is a good thing, and definitely promising for the rest of the season (well, until January, when the upper league teams will come and try to steal our players they failed to get this time round).
Yeah, I admit I watched Goal! yesterday, and also have to admit I laughed twice. I feel so ashamed today.

What will be really interesting is if UEFA do the same to ManU.Never give an AI an even break.
