Was that Flamini and Beckham on the stands?
Well, at least I tried.

Change the pathetic discusion that were lead on the previous page. Didn´t notice the last two posts though, seems like it´s done now.
Anyway, thanks to the lads for yesterday´s game. It must be hard to keep playing when you know the game is over in 12th min. Can´t get Wenger´s picture out of my head, I´ve never seen him like that, absolutely gutted.
Credit to United, very strong they´re.

To be honest he has looked like that very often this season.TomasCR said:
Not as bad as yesterday - he actually looked in physical pain. Before he's looked frustrated and angry but yesterday was a new set of emotions - shame beign one of them I think

So what's next? to where from here?
are we going to learn from the mistakes of the past 5 years or are we going to keep pushing the rock up the mountain again only to watch it fall like sisyphys?

Player:Tomiyasu
Yeah. He was gutted, absolutely gutted yesterday. Half of the time he was looking like he couldn't bear to watch and kept clutching his face. He must have been utterly disappointed with our playersirishgunnerz said:

The most sad thing about it was that he looked absolutely empty-handed, powerless, clueless about what to do. I believe there is no worse feeling for a manager than being in a situation where is absolutely no way out.
Having on the bench players who can make the difference when it doesn´t look good is the first thing to begin with, a very long summer ahead.

Even though Beckham was beaming from ear to ear Flamini did look very concerned up in the stands, whether he was concerned about the team or the bomb scare I don't though.

Noticed that too, he did look pretty upset, I think it was about the game because it was before the bomb scare.
Hmm maybe RTE got a different feed - we got pictures of him grinning ear to ear and laughing with Beckham at half time.

Well I finally watched the game today after recording it and now I know why I skipped it yesterday live....one of the most pathetic, gutless, heartless, anemic, and vile performances I've ever seen.
That goes from both Wenger and the players.
Adebayor and van Persie were anonymous...shocking I know...Man Utd. ripped our back 4 to shreds at will and no one looked like they cared at all.
On top of that, Wenger got it all wrong in a big game yet again and was thoroughly outclassed over two legs by Sir Alex.
Last night is exactly why the FA Cup semi against Chelsea still bothers me...that was clearly our best chance at a trophy and Wenger brushed it aside and then get slapped around in the Champions League, which was HIS priority...no matter what he says.
Wenger has a lot of questions to answer now, this summer is make or break for him...no more excuses.
It's pretty sad when a player who has been at our club for not even 5 months is already the most important player in the side...goes to show that the lack of quality at Arsenal is staggering.

There's no point in watching it now with your forensic hat on. It happened yesterday - it's over.AFCFan4Ever said:

Well that's your opinion...I couldn't see the game anyways even if I wanted to...had to watch it today.
It hurts like hell no matter when it happened or when I watched it.

Have to say, Man U's third goal was a thing of beauty.

Agreed, if it hadn't been scored against us, it would have been one of my favourite goals of the season.

I'm happy Barca looked very bad yesterday against Chelski. (Don't get me wrong I like Barca better but..) Lot's of people on here are moaning about how bad our players are and that Wenger is past it. Well barca couldn't creat sh*t against chelski all game long.. we did better in the FA Cup semi. So barca are totally cr*p? And eto'o and messi are a bunch of donkeys? I guess not.. so some should calm it.
I'd even dare say it that we would be top in La Liga

Barca had two problems yesterday:
1 - They couldn't find space in between the Chelsea defenders. That's because Chelsea are probably one of the best (if not the best) defensive teams in the world, and are superb at closing down space.
2 - Their defence definitely is dodgy.
However, though Barca were caught on the break quite a few times, they undeniably had by far the more posession in attacking areas, despite the fact that they created little. I know that's something we've been guilty of in the past, and I'm certainly not holding that up as something I'd like to see us emulate, BUT it's also a hell of a lot more than we achieved against Chelsea (or Utd) too.

I have to admit that Barca had a lot more of the ball than we did but they were poor. The kept on playing it sideways and backwards.. I think Denilson would fit in well.
AW is blamed for thinkering to much but what if Chelski just got one pen? They would be through and would everybody jump on guardiola? He messed up badly: Iniesta upfront and Yaya in defence so none of his lines were like they just to be. He could have played Hleb, Bojan etc upfront.. but Barca get lucky..
