    This team is pathetic, how we made such hardwork of that. Arteta should be thankful for Auba and Saka because without those two he'd be without a job.

    Would have been offside anyway, but still, change of pants required!

    Why do we do it? 2 goals gifted to Benfica to add to the goal they scored in the first leg. For long periods we got schooled by an inferior, but more canny team, and played the way they wanted us to. I agree with Keown - Ceballos had a nightmare, but why the fuck was he played as the last line of our defence? Why can't our players be more professional and focus.

    Good character from Auba, Tierney and Saka but sheesh...

    I don’t get this attitude.

    Am I the only one who can see something good at work begind the scenes? This team has a shape. We just have too much dead weight, and that isn’t this managers fault.

    Wenger left us in a real fucking mess, and we all knew (and openly accepted) that would get worse before it got better. The club chose Emery, who actually made things even worse, with zero fucking shape, idea, or direction.

    At least Arteta has gone with youth and ridded the club of Mustafi, Ozil, Kolasniac etc...we can’t sell everyone! The shitfest this club has been in will take years to solve...we have fuck all investment, fuck all money coming in and fuck all to work with but youth.

    We’ve had that cunt agent raping the club with deals above the managers head for shit like Willian and Luiz. But as a manager you need to go to experience sometimes, even if its shit.

    He’s a good manager. He needs time and patience. Just fucking accept we aren’t goong to win the league for a good while. We could get any top manager in, but without patience or money, they’ll be fucked too.

    Just appreciate there is more shape to this side than there has been for a long time.
    It's better to burn out, than to fade away.

    I agree with many of your points, and particularly the fact that we need to continue to be patient. But its the feeling that our continued weak points - lack of concentration; playng to the opposition's strengths and lack of game management - that takes the shine off.
