Match Reaction - Arsenal 1-2 Watford - Wenger Out

[KSE Comedy Club]

Also, look at the great spirit and mental strength we showed in the last 5 mins

[Gubby Allen]

Welbz's odd moments of composure aside, we have looked completely petrified in front of goal since December. It's a serious problem which unsettles an already jittery, fragile team.

Elneny is about the only positive.

They have been worried about wasting unnecessary effort and energy qualifying for the Champions League next season by finishing in 1st, 2nd or 3rd place.

Imagine if you played chess the same way every time. Regardless of you opponent's moves, you always made the same moves. Unless you were forced, kicking and screaming, into breaking the pattern, say if you were in check for example. Same moves. Whether you are playing Kasparov or the bloke down the chip shop. Nothing ever changing.

That's our zonal defensive system. That's how it is done.

And that's our possession play.

Never changes, always constant, doesn't matter what the opponent or circumstances are.

Doesn't even matter if Theo has a secret meeting. And boy, that meeting sure worked for him, didn't it? Did you see him when he came on? Precisely.

ANY manager - Simeone, Bilic, Coyle, McClaren, would instantly make us better. Not saying they could take us on to titles, but they could get the very basics of football right. The bloke we have in charge can't do that. He's locked in a fantasy world and doesn't have a clue what's going on outside it.

Beaten in the last realistic competition, at home, by Watford. Dopers! Banners! Fans! Make your excuses.

Not even on the same planet as Barca, so a few days to go before we are out of the CL.

8 points behind... Leicester City. And it will be more than that by the time this season winds down.

In what universe is this acceptable, with all the resources at the disposal of this manager? What strange parallel universe does our board inhabit that compels them to keep this guy, with him almost spotless record of failure, in his seat? What do they think is going to happen next? 10 huge season long clues, hmm, what will happen next?

So they WANT this. That's the only explanation.

In which case they can all fuck off too.

I didn't think we could sink any lower, but here we are.

I'm really not sure about renewing the memberships in the summer.

I thought Campbell played really well on the right. But agree on Elneny. Welbeck's goal is an example of what we can't do with Giroud. Ozil couldn't find him all game. He hangs on the edge of the box but can't do anything in tight spaces. Useless.

You can see the French Courts and FFA trying their utmost to get Benzema back in the team despite his indiscretions. Who the fk wants a pretty boy who can only foam up his hair and cant score a goal unless some bimbo in a hotel is involved.

BTW. hate to say I told you guys so but some of us did more than 5 years ago. Hopefully this week will see the final nails put in this vampires coffin
He has sucked the life out of this club and manages to coach all talent out of good players and flatline the heartbeat of the not so talented ones. He is slow death to Arsenal.

See you again. One day.

[Ernesto]

For the last 5 minutes they actually bothered. One has to wonder why it didn't occur to them to do that earlier, the overpaid twats.

You know, there are 20 odd minutes left to grab 2 goals against a mid table Premiership side. Our defenders are passing the ball to one another. I mean what the flying f***?!

We can't cope in our own league if we're going to play tippy tappy and if we're not going to bother to win aerial challenges.

I'm really upset right now.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger: "Our fantastic run has come to an end on a day where we felt that our performance deserved a win. Credit to Watford, they created few chances but took them all. It's sad because we gave everything.

"The players don't miss on purpose. You have to be realistic. Of course on the first goal, we made a mistake. It was not possible medically to have started Welbeck.

"It is very difficult against Barcelona, but we have to see it as a challenge and try to make the impossible possible."

We gave everything? Fuck me it's worse than I thought.

Also, Welbeck couldn't start for medical reasons - was that a note from his mum or would he have collapsed if he started?

Big shoutout to the real negros who wanted this clown out back in the day
