We should try this tbh. Maybe it will allow Ramsey or Arteta to express themselves. Keep the same team but possibly swap Ju for Gervinho/Walcott if we're playing more counter-attacky against Marseille on Wednesday.

We won't though, of course.

Arsenal v Sunderland (1330 BST)

The pressure is definitely on Sunderland boss Steve Bruce at the moment and, despite what has been said by the club's owner Ellis Short, seeing Niall Quinn step down as chairman to take up another role is not going to help Bruce's prospects.

Rightly or wrongly, there is a bit of groundswell against Bruce from the fans and a trip to Arsenal is not what you want when you need three points to keep your critics quiet.

It is easy to bash Arsenal because we know they are lacking some of the qualities they will need to get into the top four but they are still a good side, who are very difficult to beat, and I can only see Sunderland leaving north London empty-handed.

I still think Bruce is a good manager who is having a bad time, but he needs some support from his chairman while the results are not going for him.

Maybe he should be looking ahead to next week's trip to Bolton, which looks like it could be a huge game for him and Wanderers manager Owen Coyle.

Prediction: 2-0


Difficult to beat?

:lol:

Wenger should try something different...cant hurt after the last 6 months of shit..

Forgetting the back five as we have little choice, the rest should be:

Oxo Song Arteta Gervhino
Asharvin
RVP

Asharvin playing where he can offer that final pass, get his confidence back up and leave him playing little defence.

However i am sure Wenger will stick with the shit, i mean not bad 433 or whateva it is we play

Would like to see RvP playing behind Theo perhaps. .. but cant see that happening so the above line up looks OK, we're ar home so attackibg is better than Coq and Sobg both playing. . .Ramsey will be lucky to keep his place

Apart from the first 20 minutes, Sunderland have edged this game, which shows how shite we've become, given that we're playing against a side who are in even worse form than us and in terms of quality, are a mediocre side.

How much longer can fans keep up the mantra of "In Wenger we trust"? Wenger has ruined this squad, and unless we start venting our anger at the situation, change won't happen.

Syn
16-10-2011, 01:24 PM
Bit unlucky to be losing IMO. You make your own luck and all that, but Van Persie's effort that hit the inside of the post and bounced across goal...that's just pure bad luck.

As Alan Smith said towards the end of the half - the experienced players must be demanding the ball at this stage and looking to charge forward. I only see Rosicky doing that after the goal. Arteta's mistake to give away the free-kick is not acceptable for a player with that much experience.

Niall_Quinn
16-10-2011, 01:24 PM
Jenkinson is not crap, at least not by our standards. He's inexperienced - big difference. But he already provides us with more than the pampered flops we have on high wages. One of whom is Theo Walcott who is a shadow of the player who joined us and has gone backwards in his development to the point of being a passenger in every game he plays. Another dreadful half from him, it's like we've been playing with 10.

We still should have been 2-3 nil up though, but we've managed to convert that to a 1-1, which is normal for us.

RvP is a cut above anything else we have. Gervinho lively but ultimately doesn't have the quality. Rosicky playing better than Arteta who has been surprisingly careless. Song doing well, probably our best player after RvP.

The defence continues to frighten the shit out of everyone as soon as the ball comes their way. Very disorganised and undisciplined. Cheseney has made a crucial save but he's only had a moderate game, making a couple of mistakes that could have cost us.

Don't know who's on the bench but Ox for Theo is a no-brainer, otherwise Arshavin on and Theo onto the transfer list unless he decides to put even the minimal effort into earning his money.

Arteta's looking next to useless again today. We needed a top quality replacement for Cesc, not a mediocre facsimile.

were playing sunderland we should be beating them easy really with the players we have. Nothing you can do with the FK except don't be silly and give it away in the 1st place.

Once again our fragile mentality's show

Arteta looks very ordinary and Theo is near non exist. We definitely need much better players in midfield to partner Rosicky and Song. :coffee:

why keep him when he was never going to play made no sense did it, i doubt he was happy to be on the bench all the time.

Why was he never going to play? Who told you that? So Sagna is supposed to be indestructible? Oh well...

The teams trying to be at the top have 2 world class players in each position, so obviously it was a no brainer to let Eboue go and add Jenkinson.

Jenkinson's not ready to play at the top level, but it's not his fault ******* has decided to throw him in at the deep end and refused to sign an experienced right back to replace Eboue. The mistake he made which almost cost us was bad, but did you notice how he had no options to pass the ball to? Where were the midfielders ready to receive the ball from him? There are so many cowards in this team at the moment, with no one willing to take responsibility.

And where the fuck is Oxlade? Why's he not on the bench? Wenger is such an idiot these days, making mistake after mistake and yet we still have some supporters repeating the tired of mantra of "In Wenger we trust". Then you'll get some fans repeating the corporate BS spin about how we're a self sustainable business, our turnover is healthy, we're selling the Highbury flats, profits are high etc etc. My message to them is that we're a FOOTBALL CLUB not a fucking business.

Eboue world class your having a laugh ig you think that. tbh he would not have done any diffrent to jenkinson today. the only mistake Wenger made was not selling Eboue but replacing him with someone better.

Can anyone remember Walcott doing anything productive in this half? Now that Sunderland are going to play deep, you can be sure that he's going to do sweet FA again, because he struggles to find space and to play with intelligence, which is what yo need to break a team down.

The atmosphere is non-existent. I know we're not the most vocal fans anyway but there's something very detatched about the team and the crowd today. It's like these people have turned up expecting the worst. Some boos at HT as well, we must start the 2nd half as we did the first.

Eboue is no better than Jenkinson and far more likely to do something outrageously stupid and costly. What's the point in crawling all over Jenkinson, a player who is still learning the game? He's made a couple of mistakes since joining but otherwise has been solid enough considering Theo's mission in life seems to be to throw him under a bus. Plus he can cross a ball which, shockingly, none of our other players can. I've already explained to everyone how the board has been profiting from selling off talent, if we have Jenkinson instead of a ready made world class alternative then go and complain to PHW or the silent yank. In teh meantime we go with what we have, and we've had a lot worse than Jenkinson in the past.

When I say top teams, I obviously dont mean Arsenal. I just wanted us to hold on to a player better than the shit kicker playing for us in that position now. And you are absolutely right that we shouldve signed someone better than Jenkinson but the evil board fucked us up. They (the board) got us Jenkinson instead of a decent RB replacement for Sagna. As it is, AW's job is difficult and then you have the board interference in his job... sucks to be AW really!

Eboue shouldve been kept along with Jenkinson. Jenkinson is at least 3 years away from being a Premiership player. But I do agree, its the boards fault..
