    Just one more little step...
    It's quite impressive how he never seems to be called out on TV.

    Poor defence, spineless, no leaders etc
    All the same criticism seen with various groups of players over the past decade.

    He's the constant.

    Tbh the game's kind of put Jardim higher up in the pecking order for me. He'd get the best out AMN, Nelson, Mavraponos & Iwobi tbh.

    Reality check.

    We didn't make one chance for Auba.

    Let's not forget that.

    Wenger's teams are 100% dysfunctional.

    Just because we came up up against a Maureen team that is just as bad doesn't make it any better for us.

    I had to go watch a movie with Mrs. FakeNQ.

    How was the game, other than the manager leaving, was there any promise in the team that played?
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    It's Wenger, not the players. We know that by now. Years and years and years. Different squads, same manager.
    Nah.

    One of the reasons why Sol wasn't fucked up by Wenger was that he a complete unit - a beast of a man who could head and deal with any ball. You can't fuck up someone's physical attributes.

    Mustafi is a complete lightweight of a man who has to rely on technical skill (which he has little of to start with) because his physical attributes are so poor. It could work if our team was oriented around defending but it isn't which is one of the reasons he's so poor for us.

    tl;dr - not even Wenger could fuck up Mavraponos. He's the template of defenders we need sign in the future.

    Not the usual Old Trafford performance, we were actually competitive. Few of the youngsters looked good. AMN and Mavraponos in particular.

    A point would have been well earned but it's all academic really. United were shite and still beat us without really going hell for leather.

    We actually played some neat stuff and weren't completely overwhelmed other than the last 15 mins tbh.

    Utd were shite. Until they pulled their plan B and brought their chief pubber on and lumped it into our box. Then, obviously, we collapsed.

    The Greek CB, his name is too difficult to spell, appeared to be quite competent. He was doing weird shit, like defending.

    AMN was superb from start to finish. A one man show because the rest of the midfield was tragic, Xhaka was particularly bad.

    We didn't get Auba into the game on a single occasion.

    But, as a random team filled with kids go, we game Utd a gave and they were the ones who left embarrassed.

    And here's the big question that will eventually come up about Wenger.

    Was it him or did the players carry him?

    I already know the answer, but 'm sure it will be fought about for years to come.
