Us trying to play long balls to feet with Giroud up front is a joke. He can't control a football.

We need pace to make that kind of football successful.

Wenger nearly recovered, then he saw Iwobi destroying them so he moved him to CM. fml

This sort of result was on the cards since the Everton game. We completely rode our luck against Bournemouth and Burnley and on top of that we were unconvincing against WBA and Palace at home. This team has gone into games hoping to win with minimum effort for month and a half now. The players and Wenger got what they deserve.

 

[Rimaal]

I hate Wenger.


I'll put myself to sleep tonight nursing that hate.

 

[1970*Gooner]

Utterly pathetic. We will keep having these moments as long as Wenger is in charge.

Hand breaks on, over run and out fought.

True but the Wonga fanboys still think he walks on water, this was a pathetic show tonight.

 

[Beksl]

Wenger is past it, it's simple as that. Thanks for all the fishes but he needs to go!

 

[Mark Tobias]

Keeping Özil and Sanchez means nothing if we keep this manager

 

[SA Gunner]

Naah, thats not the issue. Their first goal was lucky. You can't account for deflections.

Their second goal comes from us not keeping our cool. We rush things and play naive, and we make a mistake in the midfield that cost us.

The start of the second half is how we should've responded.

I made the point in another post

The first goal I understand, deflection and unlucky.

The second goal. Poor throw, poor tracking from defenders and ball watching.

From there, and this is before the 20th minute we are completely shut out by a vastly inferior side. Zero fluidity for the entire first half, no space on the ball, yet we continue to play with the personnel in the side without any changes.

Our first set of changes come in the second half which brings a goal. Thereafter we make changes again and it goes to ****.

The theme though is that the press destroys everything about us, bar that buildup our goal. The real tragedy though is that its happened before and it will happen again - THIS SEASON.

Wenger is wasting our time, that's all there is to it.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

Then you have Arsenal fans, actual grown men, losing their **** when we beat Southampton in a nothing game. Never learn.

With Arsenal you take those rare opportunities and go be happy for day or two.

 

[Jasard]

EVERY game Coq and Ramsey have started together has been a disaster.

 

[krengon]

Hopefully this game leads to some changes, but I'm not holding my breath.

Cech should be benched, Giroud should go back to being a supersub and play when we have injuries, we need to get back to a pacy front trio.Monreal is done too. Hopefully this also puts an end to Coquelin being first choice once we have options in midfield again.

 

[Jury]

Sanchez gave the ball away 6 times in less than five minutes in the first half.

Lots of players gave the ball away multiple times overall. How many provided the magic for the goal?

 

[SA Gunner]

Keeping Özil and Sanchez means nothing if we keep this manager

Both need to be coached properly because they both have limitations.

Only players of Suarez, Ronaldo, Messi, Modric level can play in this wild west structure Wenger promotes. The rest will not be able to survive the rigours of top level competition.

 

[berric]

Seriously, no Coq, Giroud and Ramsey near the team till the end of season and we maybe get top 4.

The state of the management tho... Gotta feeling Arsène will leave on his lowest point, this season, also leaving the squad in shambles.

 

[eyoba]

Coquline getting subbed killed our momentum. I get the reason behind the decision, but they could have waited 5 to 10 minutes to see how it would have gone.

 

[hydrofluoric acid]

The clubs just screams 3rd tier... We are nothing more...

The contracts we have done this season are with Mertesacker, Cazorla, Koscielny, Giroud and Coquelin. Two players who have been injured, one average midfielder, one average striker and old CB...

Wilshere, Özil, Sanchez... We may very well be on verge of losing them. And nobody can blame them.

 

[CJJ]

So glad we gave Coquelin and Giroud new contracts so we can watch this ****house of players play next 4 years.

 

[fabo]

Sanchez is doing Özil's job aswell it seems. Gutless tosser (Özil).

 

[Rimaal]

And it's a draw for Pool.

 

[bojed]

What happened to Ramsey? Did he injure himself? I woke up at 4.45am just to watch us trailing by two goals at home against Watford
