I mean I called it when he signed the contract extension, though it didn't really take any great cognitive abilities to see it. Another 2 years of frustration.
Haven't we been here before though, didn't we have the most chances on goal last season or season before?I think you missed my point. I agree results won't change if Wenger doesn't change his selections, and we certainly don't deserve to win if we let in easy counters from the likes of Stoke and Leicester.
My point is that we are attacking well despite our mix and match first XI, and consequently, that if Wenger decides to actually play players in their positions (and use some actual CBs ffs), we would easily be winning these games.

Well lets forget the Leicester thing -because in that case every other big club should be embarrassed & I'm sure most other fans are probably of the mind set that it was a one off and well doe Leicester. The Bayern game was deplorable - I agree. However, who knows what might have happened with 11 men .Getting ripped apart by Bayern 10-2 in the premier club competition.
Finishing 2nd to Leicester on 71 points.
How embarrassing is that?
We haven't had a good transfer window for decades and I don't expect miracles over the next 10 days. On the plus side,Jenks and Brammal have moved on loan."Another transfer window". It's always "another transfer window". What happened to the £100 million war chest?

FFS man, try and enjoy your football. If you're going to bawl after every loss then find another sport to enjoy.
Not long ago it was embarrassing being an Arsenal fan because we hadn't won anything in years, now we just ain't winning the right things. If you're so ****ing embarrassed then support another club that doesn't embarrass you.
Abit harsh mate
Time people start enjoying their football & stop *****ing about everything to do with the club. There'll be plenty of time for moaning, we're only 2 games into the season FFS. I'm truly getting sick of this forum now, which is a real loss for me but the state of play around here stinks in so many ways.

People are upset at what they see as wasted potential. All the ingredients are there but the frustration is that the wrong chef is in charge of the kitchen.
Exactly. Losing is part of football but what we saw at stoke and have been seeing for the past 5-6 seasons is were still not getting the basics right. It's the same mistakes every season and it's frustrating the coaching staff are not done anything to put things right. The blame lies with the manager.
Forget no selecting the right players. Our discipline in positioning is shocking. In the first half stoke nearly scored from our corner as all the defenders went up for the corner and there was no cover at the back. This happened on numerous occasions last season.
You get the feeling none of the players know what their role is when they go on the field. I have no hesitation in saying another manager would have done much better with the players we have had in the past 5-6 years.
I get that but lets get over it because he's here for another 2 years and hopefully we can do something in that time. Are people to bictch & moan about Wenger after every loss for the next 2 years? Probably - it becomes boring and does lead to an air of negativity around the club,which we do not deserve nor need.People are upset at what they see as wasted potential.

That actually happens with most teams you know - speedy smaller players are back in case of a break but lots of teams can suffer this fate........it's not something unique to Arsenal. However, due to our attacking nature we will be more suspect to the counter. You see that happen with possession based attacking teams. Both Madrids did it to Bayern, Barca get done on the counter, Pep's City also. It's part of the risk involved.agree 100%.
This below drives me insane! i think it was last season that it was happening multiple times, Week on week. And bare in mind that this was a problem a good few years back when United and Ronaldo used to take advantage of it!

The "spiral of negativity" is out of control. It's a monster that feeds itself & it's gorging its way to obesity on this here place...It depends on the manner of the loss. if we are losing games because of the same stupid mistakes over and over and over again then yes, people have a right to moan about the manager and players. Frustrations have to be vented but yes things become boring on here.
This season I'm having zero expectations for the Gunners. If we do win anything then it's a total bonus. If it's the same old same old same old then I'll be expecting it, won't care and won't shout at the wife and kids as much when we lose. Thus making me a better person!
As for the the forum itself, isn't it written in the bible "Judge thy forum by the state of thy team"?
