Borussia Dortmund vs Arsenal. 16th Sept. 19:45. Sky Sports 5

[Marc Overmars]

Make some fucking changes for god sake.

There's still enough time to make an impression on the game. Why persist with such underperforming garbage?

[adzzzbatch]

Their players seem to have 10 times the energy levels ours do. Always pressing and harassing and when they have the ball, making deadly runs.

All we seem to be doing is walking or slow jogging. 2nd to fucking everything.

[Penguin]

Why are we playing so shit???
Wenger has never known how to deal with a strong high pressing team.

[fakeyank]

No, it just shows Wenger is a bloody idiot :tiphat:

:gp:

[adzzzbatch]

Make some fucking changes for god sake.

There's still enough time to make an impression on the game. Why persist with such underperforming garbage?

I don't think wenger knows himself what to do.

[Bumble]

wow arteta has really gone downhill...... I reckon we could have done with a defensive midfielder.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

All we seem to be doing is walking or slow jogging. 2nd to fucking everything.

When they win the ball from us they attack so fast ........ direct and straight towards the goal as fast as they can.

When we win the ball it's so slow because everyone wants to take two, three touches and evaluate their options.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Make some fucking changes for god sake.

There's still enough time to make an impression on the game. Why persist with such underperforming garbage?

Because Wenger is garbage.

[adzzzbatch]

All Dortmund ffs we're not doing anything what so ever

[adzzzbatch]

we're so shit! how many chances do we wanna give them!

[Munchies]

Fuckkkk hits the bar!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Welbz misses again.


Aubeymang goes straight towards our goal and hits our crossbar.

[Bumble]

welbeck missed a good chance then they nearly score again!!!!

oh dear. +

[Maestro]

Fucking do something Wenger for crying out loud.

oh don't worry yourself, we know he won't until it's too late then he makes a meaningless/baffling change. zim must be rofling in his coleslaw right now ....anyway here's to the liquor :cheers:

[Thierrymon]

We can expect a few more thrashings this season if we set up like this. They are walking right through us.

[Dein-machine]

Have we actually signed a worst finisher than Sonogo

[Penguin]

Make some fucking changes for god sake.

There's still enough time to make an impression on the game. Why persist with such underperforming garbage?

Bit harsh on the players. If anything it's Wenger's fault for his poor tactics

[Bumble]

on the plus side at least we didn't concede with the first chance they created. it was nearly 20 before they scored.

[adzzzbatch]

This is relentless form Dortmund! it's a case of how many they want!

[adzzzbatch]

on the plus side at least we didn't concede with the first chance they created. it was nearly 20 before they scored.

Progress! :scarf:

[adzzzbatch]

The Ox is coming on

"Wenger hasn't moved from his seat in this 2nd half" What a dick.

[Bumble]

Have we actually signed a worst finisher than Sonogo

no

[Niall_Quinn]

Cazorla and Ox coming on.

But wait and see - it will be like for like and he'll stick with the system.

[Gooner23]

We're unconvincing in so many areas of the pitch it's really worrying.

I've been a big Arteta fan over the last few seasons but last year his age was starting to show and he now looks completely cooked. And Wenger makes him captain!

Defence a shambles and completely unprotected by midfield. Wenger a statue on the bench waiting for that 60 minute mark to make his subs. It's the bad old days again.

[Globalgunner]

Dont worry chaps. Wenger has got this. at least according to the president of the RSPAW: Royal Society for the Preservation of Arsene Wenger.

[torontogooner]

I hate fuckin' Wenger, wanker, lightweight:censored:

[adzzzbatch]

Fuck off ozil

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Compare Dortmund's style of play to ours.


Ramsey and Ozil hauled off.

[adzzzbatch]

fuck off ramsey, taking the season off this year.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Immediately more energy.

[Ernesto]

Yeah, f*** off Ozil. I didn't think I'd ever see a player lazier than Arshavin.

[Niall_Quinn]

On top of all this, we didn't need such a shit ref.

Ozil off, Ramsey off. Like for like.

I would say astonishing subs but we're used to shit like this. We now pray for some top individual performances to get us back in it - just as with the gypo game.

[adzzzbatch]

Never heard of immobile but he gets everywhere the work rate is so high! unlike ours.

[Maestro]

wow the subs are actually logical, based on performance and positional requirement ...should have done that at half time

[Munchies]

fuck off ramsey, taking the season off this year.

Gone back to his old self

[1_nilto the arsenal]

Give Wenger £250 Million to spend and he still couldnt win the league or champions league. Totally inept and clueless with no Plan B or Plan C. I hope we get tonked tonight.

[Maestro]

Never heard of immobile but he gets everywhere the work rate is so high! unlike ours.

immobile is very mobile

[adzzzbatch]

Gone back to his old self

It very much does seem that way sadly.

[PGFC]

I think Ramsey's just knackered, Ozil though, I think he's done, we should loan him to Bolton for the rest of the season.

[adzzzbatch]

immobile is very mobile

Couldn't have put it better myself.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Give Wenger £250 Million to spend and he still couldnt win the league or champions league. Totally inept and clueless with no Plan B or Plan C. I hope we get tonked tonight.

Starting to come around to this pov. There's no identity or plan to the way we play anymore. Just been so lifeless this season.

On paper we have the better team especially with them having Reus, Gundogen and Hummels out and yet we've been comprehensively outplayed.

[adzzzbatch]

it's a training match for Dortmund now.

[Munchies]

@piersmorgan

This is why I wanted Klopp at Arsenal. We're being battered by a bigger, stronger, hungrier team.

https://twitter.com/piersmorgan/status/511965257657753600

:haha:

Piers :bow:

[adzzzbatch]

Klop is still demanding more from his side, whereas wenger just sits on his fucking arse.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

Sit there and pick your fucking nose cause we only pay you £8 Mill a year to do just that. What a fucking wanker.

[Kano]

Give Wenger £250 Million to spend and he still couldnt win the league or champions league. Totally inept and clueless with no Plan B or Plan C. I hope we get tonked tonight.

I don't hope we get battered at all. That would be awful and in a period where nothing can change in the team with Wenger in charge it wouldn't help one bit. I wouldn't go as far as being abusive either. He doesn't deserve that.

But I agree with your sentiment about Wenger and money. Winning a trophy was always going to change nothing. The best we can hope for again is a cup because he will always handicap his own teams now because of poor tactics and mismanagement of the squad.

[Niall_Quinn]

Dortmund have run at least 7k more than us tonight, according to the stats. They press everywhere. We hold zones that are easy to pass around. They move the ball quickly and have players running. We tap it around attempting to unlock the prefect pass, usually though the middle.

Or put another way, our tactics are absolutely shit and it doesn't really matter who we have on the pitch if this is the system we are going to play against a decent and aggressive opponent.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Can we take Klopp on the plane home instead?

[Niall_Quinn]

Awful by Ox. Had a man wide, passed it back.

[adzzzbatch]

We faced a very strong and competitive team tonight, they haven't kicked us off the pitch they've just been 100% better than us and I find that sad.

[Gooner23]

All we need is an injury to Kos just to cap the night off.

[selassie]

Dear Lord this is embarrassing.


Give Wenger £250 Million to spend and he still couldnt win the league or champions league. Totally inept and clueless with no Plan B or Plan C. I hope we get tonked tonight.

If you gave Wenger 250 million, he'd probably spend it all on attacking midfielders!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Fuck off Chesney!

[adzzzbatch]

Awful by Ox. Had a man wide, passed it back.

No fucking need for that stupid decision.

[adzzzbatch]

fuck off Chesney you prick.

[Niall_Quinn]

Amateur performance all round.

[adzzzbatch]

If you gave Wenger 250 million, he'd probably spend it all on attacking midfielders and play them out of position!

Fixed it for you.

[Marc Overmars]

Absolutely pathetic Arteta

[adzzzbatch]

FUCK OFF ARTETA YOU TWAT!!

[adzzzbatch]

we're finished.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Arteta :lol:


Should have been 5 alreayd!

[Niall_Quinn]

Arteta ????

Why?

[Munchies]

Arteta...oh dear!

[Bumble]

That's embarrassing. Arteta is useless. We could have been annihilated here.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

So yeah .... not buying that DM.

[adzzzbatch]

"Arsenal have been bellow their usual standards"

Have we though?

[fakeyank]

We faced a very strong and competitive team tonight, they haven't kicked us off the pitch they've just been 100% better than us and I find that sad.

What do you expect? We only charge the highest ticket prices in world football.. your expectations of the club are too high.

And yes, we won the FA Cup, so..

[Gooner23]

Lol Arteta, that's dreadful.

And Podolski can't find his shin pad. We're actually a pub team tonight.

[adzzzbatch]

wilshere obstructed nothing given.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Arteta :haha: :haha: :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

Dreadful ref.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Cheating German cunts.

[adzzzbatch]

welshit :doh:

[fakeyank]

Welbeck :doh:

[Marc Overmars]

Welbeck :lol:

[Thierrymon]

That turn was welgood but the finish welshit.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Welbz :doh:


Does the hard stuff but misses. FFS

[Munchies]

Welbeck ffs!

[Power n Glory]

:haha:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Might as well throw everything we have now.

[Bumble]

Oooo podolski on to play defensive midfield now.

[adzzzbatch]

who came off for pods?

[Niall_Quinn]

Oh fuck. Got to score that one :doh:

Arteta off, Pods on. Why? Nobody knows. Are we going for it now? When it's way too late? He's had 70 mins to change things because it was obvious after the first 5 mins he had thing all wrong.

[alexander]

I wish we hadn`t won the FA cup. Maybe Wenger would have gone. Once again Im left fearing for this team.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

who came off for pods?

Arteta.



Also, unbeaten record. :rose:

[adzzzbatch]

wengers post match comments:


"We positively played with a little bit the handbrake on"

[adzzzbatch]

Arteta.


Also, unbeaten record. :rose:

Thank fuck for that

[Niall_Quinn]

Arteta.



Also, unbeaten record. :rose:

Better to have a winning record than an unbeaten one tbf. Invincibles wouldn't be mentioned if they got 38 0-0 draws and got relegated.

[adzzzbatch]

Arsenal away fans :bow:

[Herbert_Chapman's_Zombie]

Better to have a winning record than an unbeaten one tbf. Invincibles wouldn't be mentioned if they got 38 0-0 draws and got relegated.

At the risk of being pedantic, i think 38 points would have kept us up that season

[Ernesto]

Sczezny taking out their c*nt of a striker in about the only bit of desire these boys have shown all night.

[adzzzbatch]

1 shot on target :haha:

[Niall_Quinn]

We have enough talent in this squad now to be competing with teams like this. But you also need the manager to know how to set things up to best use that talent. We don't have that manager. He's a good manager in many way, but when we are up against a superior opponent he doesn't have a clue.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Ox passes straight out of play. Sums up the night.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Welbz limping.

[Niall_Quinn]

At the risk of being pedantic, i think 38 points would have kept us up that season

Yay :trophy:

Staying up, staying up, staying up!

[Niall_Quinn]

Welbz limping.

Sanogo will be the reward for the night :haha:

[gunnerrrrr]

Yep.

Imagine this squad under Mourhino

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Ox just denies Mkhitaryan.

Wilshere. :doh:

[adzzzbatch]

wilshere injured now.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Another injury :haha:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Pretty much.

He needs to bring in a coach to the setup with better tactical awarenss if he feels he can't do it himself anymore. Sadly though, we know that's not going to happen. 3 more years of the same shit sadly.

Jack down now. Just what we need.

[Power n Glory]

Are those guys serious? He ran straight through the two CB's.

[torontogooner]

Wenger knows shit about building a defensive unit, he inherited one and that was the backbone of the invincibles.

Wenger bought Arshavin and destroyed him, Ozil is being fucked up by Wenger's mishandling. The same will happen to Sanchez.

Fuck Wenger.

[Niall_Quinn]

Almost another saunter through the defence.

[adzzzbatch]

immobile subbed off. I think we must have the record for players getting their first goals against us!

[Xhaka Can’t]

Dear Lord this is embarrassing.
Not nearly as embarrassing as defending Wenger.

[Globalgunner]

immobile subbed off. I think we must have the record for players getting their first goals against us!
We are usually generous like that.

[Niall_Quinn]

We'te two down, it's a one-off game, it really amkes no odds if we lose by 2 or by 4.

SO WHY DOESN'T WENGER DO SOMETHING TO CHANGE THIS SYSTEM???????????

He's still got Welbeck isolated up top even though we have Podolski on. Why not go 4-2-4 FFS? What have we to lose?

[adzzzbatch]

I think my tv is changing channels now.

Morgan has plenty to be embarrassed about himself. Odious sub human filth.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Poldi. :doh:

[adzzzbatch]

If we think we're gonna have it easy at villa on Saturday then we're going to be in for a shock.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Feel sorry for Bellerin in all this. Hope this doesn't scar him.

[adzzzbatch]

Feel sorry for Bellerin in all this. Hope this doesn't scar him.

Can't blame the player, but he's been way way out of his depth the poor sod.

[Niall_Quinn]

Feel sorry for Bellerin in all this. Hope this doesn't scar him.

Povery, famine, war scars people. A young kid getting paid a fortune to live the dream - if he gets scarred by that he's a delicate flower indeed.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Get it in the mixer!

[adzzzbatch]

Thank FUCK that shit is over!

[McNamara That Ghost...]

2-0 FT.

Oh dear.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Pure filth.

Wenger out.

[LDG]

Fucking dire.

Wenger still doesn't fucking learn.

[fakeyank]

Not nearly as embarrassing as defending Wenger.

:haha:

[adzzzbatch]

Fucking dire.

Wenger still doesn't fucking learn.

And after 18 years he never will.

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Wenger out.

He'll buy the players we need this summer*

*next summer
**summer 2017
***summer 2018

[Marc Overmars]

Group stage exit this year.

[Power n Glory]

Feel sorry for Bellerin in all this. Hope this doesn't scar him.

You should feel sorry for Merts, Kos and Gibbs. They looked out of their depth. Awful performance from the senior defenders.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Also, Marc Overmars is banned from making match threads from here on with. :coffee:

[Niall_Quinn]

FT 2-0 Dortmund. Well deserved. We weren't in it for even a minute.

Wenger easily outwitted by Klopp, will be Klopp's easiest challenge of the tournament because Wenger simply doesn't know how to adapt to the opposition at hand. He always, always thinks he can dominate the opposition and pass them to death. Even when the passing is off - even when the opposition is dominating us. It wouldn't surprise me if we had just as much possession as Dortmund tonight. Wenger values it above all else. Above goals, above shots. I think we had 1 shot.

An embarrassing performance brought about by a manager who will never, ever, change his tactics regardless of circumstances. He did us against the gypos on Saturday, he's done us again. Over the season we'll end up 4th in the table and get through to the last 16 of the CL. As usual. It's all on rails, averages, stats, GPS vests, triangles, passes per minute, yards run in the red zone, blah, blah, blah - everything is covered bar the football.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

Why are we surprised, we've been here many times before. We have to go with a 3 year plan and new philiosphy. The first two years will be a write off and then the 3rd season we get a new manager when Wenger retires, get rid of the dead wood and bring in players who will fight for the shirt and play attacking football home and away.

[Xhaka Can’t]

We've no chance in the CL. I wouldn't be upset if we were put out of our misery before the last 16 for a change.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

I thought United needed some major overhauling, but I see we need to get rid of the following players/ Szceseny, Flamini, Areteta, Mertasacker, Gibbs, Ozil. Not good enough for Arsenal FC.

[1_nilto the arsenal]

Can someone please post comical wengers post match comments.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

It's not the players though this time.

Ozil and the BFG are WC winners and there was enough raw talent in our squad to get a result tonight. It's the manager and the setup.

[Niall_Quinn]

Can someone please post comical wengers post match comments.

"I did not see it. I will tell you about it one day."

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

Can someone please post comical wengers post match comments.

"I will buy a defensive midfielder if he is better than what we currently have"

[Niall_Quinn]

Can someone please post comical wengers post match comments.

"LOOK!... We have 3 fit defenders! Look! We do what we can but what can we do?"

[LDG]

On a disappointing night....

It is of course dissapointing when you want to win, and we wanted to play our game. But tonight we were short of that. Our passing was not at the level we like, and of course you play against a good side, who are sometimes a little bit clever.

On whether lack of defensive options cost us...

No. It is not always easy to say that. We did not play well in our own game, and that is what cost us the game.

So not your stupidity at having only 6 first team defenders at a club in four competitons...

The solution is not always to buy. If I have no food left, do I buy food in case I am to starve? No. You must first look in the bin to see if there are any vegetable trimmings to eat.

On whether Arsenal can still win the competition...

Yes. Of course.

Hahahahahaha.....
