Match Reaction vs Atletico Madrid (home).

[Globalgunner]

We're miles away from being contenders, yesterday we played a team who had 10 mean or 80 odd minutes and in that time we only managed one goal, on top of that we then go and concede, it's a dreaful result all things considered.

The keeper is past it, the defence is plain awful, we literally have to start again, we need a DM and probably need to bring in a genuine winger so we can have some width, on top of that we need some squad and not 2nd rate players like Welbeck who you could create a compilation of horrendous misses for, we ned quality, reliable backups.

Wenger has left us in a terrible state.

Worst part is, he hasn't left yet.

Lets hope Mourinho doesnt have another 8-2 scoreline planned for us. That would just top Wenger`s reign off nicely . Wouldn't it

Do I have to do everything around here?

Home
P18 W14 D2 L2 F49 A20 (2nd although Utd have a home 'game in hand' and have 3 fewer points)

Away:
P16 W3 D4 L9 D17 A26 (12th although we have a 'game in hand' away...although that is at Utd)

You're the one coming on here with the statistics!!!!

Yeah! Stupid Letters and his "statistics" and "facts"

We've bullied the pub teams at home, that is the basis of our season. Spurs are the only decent side we beaten at home.

Home records don't get more bogus than that.

SPUD!!

I think yes although they did have 10 players. they are still 2nd in the Spanish league and we are 6th. So 1-0 would have been a good result but unfortunately as has often happens we make a mistake at the back and get punished.
we do need a new keeper, cb, cm. but anything more will cost so much money.... by the sounds of what you are suggesting getting quality back ups we are going to need to spend £500m.

We have 3 decent strikers and I include Welbeck in that as he is a player who is good for our squad. we aren't in a position where we can have top super stars as back up. so we need to be realistic.

Arsenal have been charged by UEFA for setting off fireworks and smoke bombs during the player presentations.

Did that happen??

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Yeah....it looked cool.

[Mac76]

Yeah....it looked cool.

there was more after our goal as well i think

[Globalgunner]

UEFA should cut us some slack. We were actually celebrating the end of 22 years of bondage.
