Haven't seen it but sounds like it's hard to get enthusiastic after another pile of shit.

Can’t even keep a clean sheet against the worst team in the league.

Arsenal used to make up the numbers in the Champions League.

Now we just make up the numbers in the Premier League.

Kroenke has turned this Club into an irrelevance.

Glad to get the points and the strategy was a little unorthodox in ceding so much ground and possession to them. We struggled to get out pretty much the whole game and tried hitting them on the break, which we should have done more effectively several times.

Iwobi was a mixed bag and oddly looked better on the right than the left for once.

I used to grumble at people who complained after a win but I saw most of this one and it was pretty rubbish from us.

We were awful, luckily Huddersfield were slightly awfuler.

Some of the defensive mistakes we make would embarrass a Sunday League team. It was only Huddersfield’s ineptitude which prevented more punishment. What the hell do they do in training?

Zero chance of us finishing top 4 on that showing

Think we need to hire a hygienist having trouble with keeping a clean sheet.

Southampton and Bournemouth at home next up in the league. At least we should still be in the mix for 4th when we play Spurs.

Though I wouldn’t bank on us taking 6 points before then either.

Our record against Southampton since Jan 2015 is 4 wins and 4 losses in the last 10.

Three points against them is 50/50. And that is before you factor in our form the past couple of months.

That's all we've got now. Some +1's for getting hammered the least.

We havent at home to them in the league in over 25 years, so we’re pretty clear favourites for this one.

Our days of being classed as pretty clear favourites for almost any match are done.

We’ll probably win 2-1 though.

That’s pretty panicky but fair enough.

I think at home we are pretty much favourites against any side outside the top 6.
Away from home it’s anyone’s guess.

Southampton are rubbish we should beat them comfortably.

I agree with you really, but I can’t help but think the underlying reason behind your post is to set up another no win scenario regardless of how the match pans out.

Seems to me it's damned if you do, damned if you don't then!

Have you seen them this season? This isn't the Southampton team of a few years ago, at the end of the day if we don't win this game you can't make any excuses.

The crunch match is Man U at home, that's very loseable given their form, I think they probably will be favourites for that game.
