    Under Kroenke's ownership we're in serious danger of becoming a Stoke or WBA level club ...... constant mid table mediocrity.

    I'm not exaggerating either - just check out his American teams.

    Fucking depressing.

    And we were getting on so well today...kinda.

    I think we'll finish top 6. Top 4 will be tricky but there's not much quality below the top 4.

    I think we'll finish 6th or possibly 7th/8th. I don't think we can finish above any of Man U, Spuds, City, Chavs or Liverpool this season. 50/50 whether we finish above Everton, I couldn't call it right now.

    Leicester could finish above us too...it wouldn't be out of the question.

    I think we'll definitely finish somewhere between 6th and 8th.

    Think I agree that those 5 will finish above us, I don't think anyone else is.
    Top 6 trophy. Haven't won that one before.

    I want far lower than mid-table.

    I would be happy with 17th.

    After the infamous 8-2 at Old Trafford people were saying we'd finish mid-table or worse and that top 4 was not possible.
    I said it was too early to say that for sure as it was so early in the season and got shouted down.

    We will find out whether Wenger has it in him to fall so far and then recover to make it look like an achievement again

    My guess is he can't do that shit anymore.


    But maybe we expect too much it's only the 17th time in ten years we've lost by a margin of three or more goals. People need to put things in perspective

    I think this feels very different.

    We went there with a bunch of kids that day and got the hammering we deserved. Players were brought in and the likes of Arteta and Merts stabilised us.

    Now though our transfer activity (or lack of it) is just a small part of the overall picture. Wenger has lost the fan base, lost the dressing room by all accounts. His decison making has become comically bizarre. We are in a dire situation with absolutely no cause for optimism. I think we have every chance of finishing mid table and I would never have said that in previous summers.

    It's funny this "lost the dressing room" thing because I've thought that in other seasons but we've always rallied and got it together.
    Have to agree it does feel a bit different now but...oh, let's just see where we are at Christmas. That will give us more of an idea of what this lot are going to do or not do.

    We didn't look that bad against United as we did against Pool.
