Francesc Fabregas is regretting that Arsenal did not make the most of their chances to settle the Carling Cup tie with Tottenham.
The Gunners were 2-0 down in the first half but improved in the second half to level and finish the game at 2-2.
Fabregas, who was voted Man of the Match, said: "The first half, I didn't think we played well.
"They started really strongly, putting a lot of pressure.
"We had to change something at half time because we were not playing as we are used to playing.
"Coming back is not easy. Playing at Tottentam is very difficult.
"Second half, we were amazing.
"At the end, we could've won. Theo had a great chance. I had one as well.
"We have to happy with the draw. because coming here, losing 2-0 and drawing in the last 20 mintues is good for us because now we play at home."

Well it is the same old story Fab. Over the last five or so years had matches been played for 2 hours Arsenal would probably never lose. Most teams can hold out for ninety but the sheer class, artistry, speed and incisiveness of Arsenal's play is simply too much in the ninety let alone if matches were played over two hours. They do not lose they run out of time.
