Loss FA Cup 3rd Round: Nottingham Forest 1 - 0 Arsenal | Sunday 9th, January | KO: 17:10 GMT | ITV 1

Play the reserves. We should be beating these lot even while resting our starting XI.
Shouldn't be complacent but the fringe should be able to see them off.

Likes of Cedric, Holding, Pepe and all the other forgotten souls will all feature in this.

 

[Ind0Gunnerz]

Chill out guys. Carabao cup has always been the much better cup anyway

 

[rockofcashel]

Compare Cedric today v Spence.. which right back would you have preferred

All the calling for Patino in the middle.. get a grip, he's a kid..

Giving Nketiah a new contract.. I've never once, and I mean never once, seen him do anything that made me think he's worth it

Holding.. stealing a living

Lokonga, will give a pass.. he was bought for the future

But go back up to my first line.. Spence. He might be a limited player, but he showed desire and willingness to work

Without that, does matter who you are.. you'll win nothing

Cup we didn't need, decimated squad, kinda dumb to kick up a stink no?

Oh there will be stink made, watch this space.

The Arteta out brigade paint the sexuals as blinkered. I say its actually the case on both sides.

 

[Trilly]

We've seen AMN and Lokonga play together briefly and they did well enough. AMN would have offered more than Patino. The agreement should have been AMN getting game time in the cups and then leave.

The whole Lokonga over AMN thing is a farce and surely is another example of personal stuff coming ahead of the team.

I refuse to believe Sambi deserves the game time he’s gotten over AMN.

 

[Moviegooner]

That's the magic of the Fa cup. Had a fealing it could happen, with covid and af con departures. Beautiful trophy but it's not the end of the world. We move on

 

[Macho]

The team performance was the biggest stink kicked up

Personally I don't give a **** about the fa cup

it's a nice cup, but I don't think we have anything to prove when it comes to that cup. All eggs in the league basket is just common sense.

 

[Trilly]

Just know I’m with you in spirit tho!!

@Macho she did the same thing with Pepe as well.

Women…

 

[yorch44]

All coloured too...now I'm not saying anything but this is a serious concern. If no black players come in this window.. Stat DNA looking at **** pics.

Sambi watch your parts in the dressing room... Maybe you are the next big boy!

 

[UpTheGunnerz]

Anyone actually honestly care about the cup? Search your true feelings

All about the top four

 

[Sniper Mik]

I think arteta freeze every player he realises has a big peepee... Saliba, AMN, Auba, Pepe, Nuno now... Not a coincidence all of them have African heritage if you know what I mean

I mean he spent 50 million on a player named White. He's not trying to hide anything

 

[Blood on the Tracks]

One of the worst Arsenal performances of recent times ( and there have been a lot of them)

Those players out there were not into it and those guys were more than capable of beating Forest whatever excuses will be made about missing players.

Patino is a boy so I'll excuse him but the rest need to have a look at themselves in the mirror.

Guys barely won a 50/50 all game. Just went through the motions.

Awful, awful stuff.

I understand your point but how many games AMN played this season? 5-6? He won't be staying to play cup games I'm sure we wanted him to stay but the guy want to play and we really need to sign up midfielder because we simply don't have options Sambi also because he young he won't replace Partey well.

 

[Papa Wonga]

Forest fans get to go work buzzing with cocks out, I have to go work tomorrow and explain to management why I was attempting to hang myself from the fan in the staff room.

 

[em9999]

If it means beating Sp**s I would have accepted a 10-0 defeat today .. forest will get hammered by Leicester anyhows ..

Imagine storming the pitch for beating this team. Small time

 

[Tom Mix]

This shows we need to prioritise a striker and a central midfielder. With Auba ostracized, Laca and Eddie leaving, Balogun on loan... we can't expect the bulk of the goals to come from midfield. I can't think of many successful teams who don't have a striker knocking in at least 15/20 goals a year.

Central midfield.... Torreira and Guendouzi out on loan but now we face a whole month of just Xhaka and Sambi? Asking for it, in my opinion.

 

[Lady_Gooner]

One thing you learn about arsenal is we’re never far away from a mini crisis (and I don’t even care we’re out today). Can’t lose terribly on Thursday now.

 

[Papa Wonga]

Imagine storming the pitch for beating this team. Small time

Small club mentality, they deserve the match proceedings from this game taken away for pitch invasion.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

You guys need to pray that Tomi stay fit for reminder of the league games. Same with Gabriel xhaka and Partey because we in deep trouble without them already saw it today .

 

[Papa Wonga]

Manager needs to put the money where his mouth is and spend.

No CM / ST and it's curtains by feb.
