Without Ramsey, Ozil, Theo and Jack we have very little to offer, feel for Gibbs, would even feel little bit sorry for AW, he must be as dissapointed as we are by these cunts, if it wasn't for the money, oh well, Shitteh next, how bad can it be?

There's no belief there and plainly no leaders on the pitch. People can go on about Wilshere as much as they want but at least he'd have been up for the chav match and mental for tonight. That's what Flamini was supposed to bring. Not a sign of it.

Well done guys! Great response. :rolleyes:

Can’t be bothered to dissect the game, it just wasn’t good enough, we all know that and didn’t learn anything new tonight.

I’m sick to death of watching this lot shit themselves whenever they may have a chance of success. What is wrong with Wenger? This seems to be common trait regardless of what collection of players he has at his disposal. We poked fun at pundits and other doubters who constantly played down our chances earlier in the season but it’s fair to say they were spot on now.

Even when they delivered us some hope, it looks like they’re tumbling towards their beloved 4th fucking place. There's nothing left to give, they're fresh out of ideas and have no confidence at all. We just have to hope whatever dreggs of quality remain is enough to secure 4th and the cup.

City will take us apart on Saturday if we don’t sort ourselves out, that is guaranteed.

Ah, he's awoken from his media slumber. Fantastic!

I hope he has a little more than 5-a-side training planned for the players. Big game on Saturday. He should go that extra mile and break out the cones and mannequins. Sharpen up on our passing accuracy. ;)

The epitome of Wengerball and why we continue to fall short.
http://performance.fourfourtwo.com/technique/mikel-arteta-pass-your-opponents-off-the-park


Don’t join the battle
“Take the game where you want. If you get drawn into the battle you will suffer. If you start making fouls and giving away throw-ins and corners then you lose your momentum, which is hard to get back. Stick to your passing game and keep the ball in their half. If you start forcing the play and giving the ball away you give them the opportunity to hit you on the counter attack. Arsene Wenger is so calm. He tells us to keep playing our football until the last minute of the game, and that has paid off.”

Tire out the opposition
“Make the opposition run for 10, 20, 30, 40 minutes – they will struggle to maintain their work rate for the entire game. Once they get tired, they start to make mistakes and you can draw them into two versus one or three versus two situations. This is your opportunity to find the spare man. If you keep the ball then the opposition will get tense and want to get aggressive. This will force them to break out of their positions and this is when you expose the space. Patience – that’s the difference between a good player and a top player.”

Confidence is key
“It doesn’t matter what system you play, or how hard the opposition press, you can find an advantage somewhere on the pitch. You have to pass with speed and precision and believe not only in yourself, but your team-mates, because sometimes you have to put them in trouble with a one-touch pass in a tight area of the pitch. You have to play the ball to their safer side – their stronger foot or where there’s more space for them to turn into. Sometimes just playing the ball into his feet isn’t good enough.”

ARTETA ON PASSING THE ARSENAL WAY
Work your way out of any dead end with this intricate drill, straight from the Gunners training ground

“At Arsenal, we do a lot of exercises where you have to play through the mannequins, but you can use cones.

This is a great drill because it’s real, you’re moving and finding the holes to play the diagonal pass, just like in a match.

The drill starts with player one passing the ball through two mannequins to player two, who with one touch steps through the next two mannequins.

He then passes the ball to player three on the outside. Player three returns the pass and begins his run around the three mannequins, forming a triangle.

Playing one-touch football, player two and three exchange passes between mannequins one, two and three.

Once player three has run past mannequin three he plays the ball back to player two and sprints around mannequins four and five.

Receiving the pass, player two takes one touch through the mannequin gate and plays a diagonal pass to player three as he runs past mannequin five.

The process repeats itself, with each player swapping positions in a clockwise direction. This drill will help you during a game when out to create two versus one situations against a defender.

It’s also great for finding the spare man. Think of player two as a midfielder and player three as a full back or winger on the overlap.”

Funny thing is... there is not even an overreaction from the fans. Been there done that. Quite a few posters had predicted this outcome when we were on top of the league. This is just a fucking rewind and play of every freaking season from the last many many years.
Today's match reaction from AW just made me feel like throwing up. There is no honesty in his press conferences, much like what you are seeing in his players performances. The players and the managers are living in a deluded reality where they just coast through being at Arsenal. Change HAS to be made at Arsenal... managers, players, medical staff. We are a club that has the potential to be Real Madrid but we are being sold to be happy like a mid-table average joe.

After the 6-0 thrashing, I was sort of expecting an improved performance, but this was even worse. No disrespect to Swansea, but they completely dominated us in the passing aspect, some of the moves they pulled off were pretty great, and if it weren't for their players ruining the chances at the last minute we'd be worse off.

Wenger needs to go. We were lucky to not lose this game, De Guzman was one on one at the end, and the ref blew the whistle. His interview was a load of shit. Go back to the old GW board, or even just go back to last season, the same problems are in this squad, and nothing ever gets done.

The Emirates Gallactico
26-03-2014, 03:03 AM
Sigh. Once again our season is fading towards an ever so predicatable scenario. It's like Wenger has a clause in his contract stating that acheiving 3rd/4th place and barely scraping into the CL is the maximum he can acheive. I mean since 05/06 there's basically been two types of seasons at the club:

1) Start the season of incredibly poorly and be around 7th/8th in January and miles of the CL places but somehow put in a title winning run of form to close out the season and somehow claw a CL position

2) Start the season of incredibly well and appear to be genuine title contenders up until the new year but once the going gets tough and there's pressure, fold like a pack of cards and watch the season peter out into nothingness with the CL place not being secured until right into the final games.

It's getting so boring and taking the enjoyment out of it.


As for the game itself, I don't subscribe to the notion that the players weren't "passionate" enough or up for it. I just think once again we were tactically poor and coached badly. We lacked a clear cutting edge up front and once again exposed our lack of pace and power. Add in a shocking defensive display (despite playing both Arteta and Flamini) and the end result speaks for itself.

Wenger's stockpiled a lot of great technical players but unfortuntely hasn't really done it in a way to build a team infused with the right blend of qualities to carve teams open and dominate matches .... or the system he had planned in mind has gone to shit following the long term injuries of two players (Ramsey and Theo) and he isn't capable of adapting accordingly. It's probably more the latter but it's still unexcuasable - injuries happen.

Sigh. Once again our season is fading towards an ever so predicatable scenario. It's like Wenger has a clause in his contract stating that acheiving 3rd/4th place and barely scraping into the CL is the maximum he can acheive. I mean since 05/06 there's basically been two types of seasons at the club:

1) Start the season of incredibly poorly and be around 7th/8th in January and miles of the CL places but somehow put in a title winning run of form to close out the season and somehow claw a CL position

2) Start the season of incredibly well and appear to be genuine title contenders up until the new year but once the going gets tough and there's pressure, fold like a pack of cards and watch the season peter out into nothingness with the CL place not being secured until right into the final games.

It's getting so boring and taking the enjoyment out of it.


As for the game itself, I don't subscribe to the notion that the players weren't "passionate" enough or up for it. I just think once again we were tactically poor and coached badly. We lacked a clear cutting edge up front and once again exposed our lack of pace and power. Add in a shocking defensive display (despite playing both Arteta and Flamini) and the end result speaks for itself.

Wenger's stockpiled a lot of great technical players but unfortuntely hasn't really done it in a way to build a team infused with the right blend of qualities to carve teams open and dominate matches .... or the system he had planned in mind has gone to shit following the long term injuries of two players (Ramsey and Theo) and he isn't capable of adapting accordingly. It's probably more the latter but it's still unexcuasable - injuries happen.

Can't argue with that!

He needs to leave. He doesnt deserve a new contract and the club have to grow a pair and let him out of his misery.

We have no bottle, no fight and no leaders and when the going gets tough, the way we chicken out is fucking shocking. Its been the case for the last 5 seasons (even when we had cesc, RVC etc) so the man in charge is to blame, noone else.

Everton 6 behind with a game in hand. If/when we lose to City and they win their game, they are 3 behind and we play them the week after.

I dont know what to say other than this manager has to go, he really is past his sell by date.

Was there last night with a couple of work mates, one thing we agree on this morning is how boring it was. It's like watching Barcelona in slow motion. Passing sideways over and over again until it reaches one of our full backs who duff a cross. Can't remember the last time I went and came away buzzing.

I understand that Wenger doesn't publicly criticise his players, but to come out and give us the 'players gave everything' spiel is just patronising. Swansea really weren't anything special last night and we should have taken them to the cleaners. Something has to give this summer surely.

Predictable, had we won that game we would have robbed swansea.

Same old shite every year, onlhy this year we waited until late March to capitulate.

The injuries are no longer annoying they are a bloody embarassment. Ramsey out for 2 or 3 weeks from boxing day and he is still short. Absolute disgrace what the club are getting away with.

The worrying thing is that we are now in a battle for 4th aganst a team who are on fire and will probably knock us off 4th in a couple of weeks.

The other worrying issue is that we are conceding all kinds of goals now, we have been quite good at the back all season and when we go in front we rarely dont win but low and behold we are now starting to concede last min goals. When was the last time we conceded a last min goal? Expect us to do so more between now and the end of the season.

Even if we do win the FA cup this season (and i doubt we will) then this annual capitulation esp this seasons monstrocity will taint it...

That pretty much nails it and I'm glad you've said it in a way that highlights the two types of season that we have. This is season type two. However, Everton may finally make the wheels come off this time - they are hitting top gear at precisely the right time.

They are far better coached than Tottenham teams of the past that had similar opportunities (in fact Tottenham were often much better placed than Everton are now) and I fear we are going to pay the price this year.

Shambles. I know Wenger complained they only had two shots on goal. But we only had four so hardly that much better considering we were at home and been promised a performance.

Arsenal fans demand more because they pay the highest prices in the country and deserve to be watching something that represents that.

It's a shame the attendance figures aren't based on who actually attends but on tickets sold. As think that could be quite interesting.

This dude cracks me up, starts by effing and blinding the anti wenger fans and defending Wenger til the end and how he would have taken this 2-2 result after the 6 nil, and where would we be without this great manager mid table or championship. Then right at the end when asked if we didnt finish top 4 would he still back him and he says no I want him out for Klopp!!
