Match Reaction - Arsenal v Burnley

[Xhaka Can’t]

Merci Arsene

Thank you for the golden age of Arsenal football

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Good win.

Sky with the post-match tearjerker on in a few minutes.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Alex Scott. :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bye BFG. :wave:

Who collects the fines now?

[McNamara That Ghost...]

The Invincibles trophy.

Two league titles in one season. :bow:

Bob Wilson. :bow:

Pat Rice! :patrice:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Arsenal Legends :bow:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Wengers gets the Invincibles trophy to keep?

Aw.

Should be Pires for his dive against Portsmouth.

[Niall_Quinn]

WTF?

They've given him the club's bloody trophy??????

That's fucking outrageous.

That's a fuck you Henry. Fuck You Bergkamp. Fuck you all the rest of the players. And Fuck you to the fans.

So he IS bigger than the club after all?

He'd better give that back.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Who cut off his mic? :haha:

[Xhaka Can’t]

Go outside.

Enjoy the sunshine.

[Niall_Quinn]

Who cut off his mic? :haha:

Mr DT

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Bye Wenger. :wave:

[GP]

Go outside.

Enjoy the sunshine.

I think he's had too much.

[Niall_Quinn]

Go outside.

Enjoy the sunshine.

Good advice.

Some old dinosaur is telling a bunch of lies at the moment. Maybe it'll get better when the next act is on.

[Xhaka Can’t]

I think he's had too much.

Good point.

[Niall_Quinn]

He's not gone yet, btw.

Still 2 more games to go.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Mesut managed to make it out of his sick bed then. :sarcy:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Fantastic to that practically the entire stadium stayed behind!

[Xhaka Can’t]

Gunnersaurus never said a word.

[GP]

Wenger :bow:

New contract?

[A Gunner]

Come on, it was not a surprise he'll get the trophy, when two legends came out with it!!!

I'm sure he'll give it back to the club when he dies!!!

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Mesut managed to make it out of his sick bed then. :sarcy:

Wearing his snapback as well :lol:

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Wenger: "I hope to see you soon"


Next manager after the new guy fails confirmed!

[GP]

Great man :bow:

[Niall_Quinn]

First decade great - THANK YOU!

Second decade - tragedy, in footballing terms. All the good work undone. Don't let the door hit you on the way out.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

Santi :bow::bow:

[Master Splinter]

Wenger has often said he doesn't give a fuck about the medals/trophies.

He'll hawk it on ebay I think.

[Master Splinter]

On the actual match:

Aubameyang :bow:.

This guy is a bit awlsome.

Iwobi :bow:.

I'm not declaring him brilliant on the basis of one impressive game, but he clearly has the talent and could be a big player for Arsenal if he plays under a good coach and a proper structure.

Kola :bow:.

Welcome back to football.

Bellerin :bow:.

With the attributes he has and the positions he takes up, he should be doing this every week.

Mavro :bow:.

Lukaku last week, Barnes this week. Vokes just about survived. Vardy next? What a beast.


Wenger :bow: :bow:.

BFG :bow:.


Dyche :haha:.

Tony Gale :haha:.

[McNamara That Ghost...]

Old Man Wenger's hearing. :rose:

[McNamara That Ghost...]

WTF happened to the SkyBot then?

Also, yes Aubameyang has overall been a bit good. Shall be great seeing him for 40+ games.

[Blink 1nce Quince 2wice]

Thanks for the memories prof Wenger!

A bit weird he was given the trophy but I assume he won't leave with it.

[The Emirates Gallactico]

On a side note, I'm genuinely worried that Ivan may appoint Vieira after getting the wrong idea from the crowd singing his name during the match. :doh:

BBC are already alluding to it in their match report. :doh:


Arsenal's supporters also sang the name of former midfielder Patrick Vieira, who has been among the candidates tipped to take over at the Emirates next season.

[Mac76]

i didn't watch it as without a ticket to see it i'd just have felt left out - must admit wasn't expecting such a strong win, but at least it bodes well for next season and we avoided the shame of finishing below Burnley

but were Burnley sh*t on the day or did we really turn it on for once?

[The Emirates Gallactico]

but were Burnley sh*t on the day or did we really turn it on for once?

A bit of both.

We definitely played better conisdering the occasion and Burnley I think knowing they had Europa safe weren't giving it 100%.

At any rate an attacking for of Lacazette, Auba, Ozil & Mkhitryian would be more than enough for any new manager to bear fruit from.

[KSE Comedy Club]

Fantastic to that practically the entire stadium stayed behind!

Yeh - they all wanted to make sure he fucked off!

[Xhaka Can’t]

It has been a shockingly shite season, but today was an enjoyable occasion.

Every goal was highlight reel quality.

[Master Splinter]

At any rate an attacking for of Lacazette, Auba, Ozil & Mkhitryian would be more than enough for any new manager to bear fruit from.

Not if Ozil is in bed every week.

Which he hopefully is.

At another club.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Ozil is a bust.

[Letters]

ONE ARSENE WENGER :bow:

Thanks for all the good times, Arsene.
Pleased Burnley didn't spoil the party today and that Wenger got the send off he deserved.

:scarf:

[Letters]

Just watching MotD2 and seen the goals. Wenger :bow:

People who say that Wenger isn't liked :pal: :haha:

Great and fitting tribute to our best ever manager.

Excited for the future too, I think we've got a good squad, we've got the resources to compete.
Come on, Arsenal :scarf:

[Niall_Quinn]

He was forced out by the fans. Tough luck. Live with it.

[Xhaka Can’t]

He was forced out by the fans. Tough luck. Live with it.

Yes he was.

I was one of those fans that forced him out.

I’ll be back attending regularly next season.

He stayed way too long, but he gave us the best football I’ve ever seen and took us through an era where we pretty much had to sell off all our best players.

[Letters]

60,000 of whom chose to attend today, sung his name long and loud and stayed after the final whistle to say good bye.
He is far more respected, liked and admired amongst Arsenal fans and throughout football in general than you like to think.
Tough luck. Live with it.

[Letters]

Non-attendance was the only way to force his hand, I've said that all along.
Hit them where it hurts, in the pocket.
He outstayed his welcome but he's left us with a good squad (IMO) and the resources to bolster it.
I'm quite excited for next season for the first time in a while.
Come on, Arsenal
:scarf:

I'm not slobbering over the forum, fawning over the bloke. You are. But that's normal, of course. I've got what I wanted and am happy to live with it. Like I said, my celebration will come in 2 games time.

[Letters]

I've got what I wanted and am happy to live with it.
So have I. :shrug:
So has pretty much every Arsenal fan, maybe except Ty.

[Xhaka Can’t]

Ty is probably on suicide watch

[Niall_Quinn]

Ty is probably on suicide watch

He's on lastminute.com, waiting for news on where Wenger is going.

[Mac76]

A bit of both.

Thanks, just saw MOTD and Burnley certainly didn't look up for it but a good side for us, Auba and Laca could really be big for us next season

Exciting :yippee:

[Marc Overmars]

Fun day out. Thankfully the team played well and when all was said and done, Arsene got a respectful send off.

Despite everything that’s happened over the last few years, the guy is a gent and although I won’t miss him, his speech did pull on the heart strings.

Arsene. :wave:

Thanks for the memories.
