Bolton lost today but Man U were awesome and played really well (from the highlights Bolton did try and put up a fight). When we lost 8-2 there was very little fight and Man U didn't have to be at their best.

In short Bolton's result was a lot better than ours and not only in terms of the score.

Sorry, I think Owen Coyle is a good manager but sacking Wenger and replacing him with Coyle would be as bad as Liverpool bringing in Hodgson to replace Rafa.

The players won't respect him and his name will hinder our chances of signing established international players. Either bring in a coach that has experience of winning one of the major leagues or a coach that has a least won the Europa Cup and brought his team all the way up to qualify for Europe. That's the calibre we should be looking for. Owen Coyle hasn't done anything with Bolton yet, they just play prettier.

The next manager needs to know what it takes to win the league. Get a name from Europe and give Steve Bould the assistant manager role.

Erm bolton had their best team out we never its totally diffrent tbh. Did you really expect the team we put out not to get spaanked thant much because i did.

There was no leaders etc. Bolton played at home with an organised team.

As for the OP what a Silly Thread Coyle would do no better in this situation. on his thinking we may as welll get Big sam i mean he only lost 7-1 to the mancs last season.

IMO, for our long suffering the least we deserve is Mourinho - but at the moment I find it hard to think of any professional manager who couldn't add something important to this team that AW has failed to.

I voted Coyle.

Bolton are a small club with relatively resources, moreover as mentioned Man U played really well (many said they didn't think Man U had to when they played us). Man U had just as many players out as us on top of that (give or take 1 or 2).

Incidentally I never expected us to lose by more than 3 goals, in other words 3-0, 3-1 is what I was expecting not 8-2.

Yep, I think Coyle is a decent enough manager too but I agree we should be aiming for the very best when Arsene leaves.

One thing we have on our side is that we pay our Manager a very healthy salary, I hear Arsene is the highest paid Manager in PL

Given the above we should in theory be able to attract pretty much anyone from a financial point of view.

@ Ollie - I can see your point, mate.

8-2 was humiliating, but with a Manure on fire and us limping badly after losing our 2 best players; our collapse last season and getting a single point out of Newcastle and Liverpool - we were all expecting to lose away, and to lose well.

Home to Spurs last season and the season before we were at full strength and on fire...then pissed it away right at the end. In terms of being gutted (as opposed to ashamed and humiliated), I see right where you are coming from.

i felt more humilated by the 4-4, partly it might be due to the fact i was there and for most the game, we had been giving it large, abusing the scum etc etc, and to have that taken from us and see them celebrating, made me feel sick. we were always behind with united, and although i hoped we might get something, from the first goal, i was not expecting muh

Condeding 8 goals was worse, not many sides conceded that many goals in one match, the fact we're a big club and have is just plain embarrassing to be honest and really reflects badly on the manager.

Given that we concede 2+ goal leads with regularity and haven't conceded 8 since the 1800s, I'd say the Man U result was the bigger shock.

Coney
15-09-2011, 07:48 AM
Not sure I agree. While 8 by manu was more than I'd expected, being beaten was no surprise and by a decent margin was also a good possibility, given the state of the team. I still think throwing away a 4-0 lead against Newcastle was the bigger surprise and for me the sign of just how bad we were in terms of resiliance. It is the reason why I think that the transfers we did - albeit rushed through - I think will have a bigger impact than a lot of people realise. Cesc was a great player but I don't think he was a good leader and not the person to pick up the team. The presence of the likes of Arteta and Mertesacker along with Vermaelen when he gets back will be good assistance for RvP's leadership and put a spine in the team, allowing the talents of the other players to have a chance to shine - we will see if they take up that chance as the season progresses.

We should have had 3 points at Newcastle last year and rubbed Pardews face in it. We expected to lose at manu and losing away to a top4 side is no disgrace, though the margin this time was embarrassing. It was the games against the middle and mediocre sides where we failed to perform that have cost us places and titles, not the odd drubbing against a top4 team.

Marc Overmars
15-09-2011, 11:09 AM
I think the biggest shock was certainly the United game, not just because of the scorline itself, but the fact it could so easily have been 10+ and that wouldn't have flattered United at all.

To be honest not a lot shocks me about this team anymore, but just when you think they've hit the lowest of lows, they go and pull another rabbit out of the hat.

I think the 6-1 loss to Man U was the most shocking result due to the reasons given earlier; but that 8-2 perfomance (which should have ended +10) was def the most humilating thing i' ve ever seen in top european footballing competition- if i had the powers i'd relegate a team soley on that.

Maybe we did expect to lose (I'd argue this shouldn't be the case and that we should be at a level where we'd feel we're capable of winning), however for a top club to lose 8-2 to any club is a disgrace, that's why you very seldomly see it because top teams just don't get beaten by margins like this.

Like has been said you have to look back to the 1800's to see us conceding 8 goals, that says plenty for me.

Some of the other results have also been awful, the 4-4 being one of them, but this is just another low in a string of lows.

Frankly some of the results in the last year or so (and before that) are sackable offences, Wenger is lucky money is all that counts at Arsenal or he'd have been out of a job a long time ago and rightly so.

Thats just it were not a top club not any more, just because we called Arsenal means nout if you don't back it up. Loosing 8-2 was bad because like someone said it could have been 15-2 that game. and the way AW set the team out to get beat.

I suppose a loss is a loss tbh, at least it made wenger act, because loosing 2-1 would have done nothing to the club but let them think eveything is fine.

Historically we are a big club, just because AW is a small time manager and we have a narrow minded board it doesn't change that.

Even if we weren't, how many clubs concede 8 or more goals in one match? It's only happened 2 other times since the Premiership was formed and both teams who did got relegated which says a lot. The single most humiliating moment as an Arsenal supporter for me, I'm pretty sure you won't see it repeated by any manager that replaces Wenger either.

It was a scandalous result and he should have been sacked on the spot IMO, sure he made a few signings but they do stink of desperation. We really need to finally bring in some top quality players who could be around for a number of years (just like Sol Campbell, he was 26 when we signed him so had plenty of years left), not really sure we've done that at all.

BOBN
16-09-2011, 12:29 PM
so lets see...

It has been said recently that Coyle and his coaches do not work on shape or defensive drills. They let players go out and express themselves, Keeganesque style.

It's all very well picking attacking lineups and we probably have to accept that we are going to concede goals sometimes. But nobody can tell me the defensive side of our game is well organised or drilled. The back four are a shambles and yes they don't always get protection but equally they let in soft goals unrelated to midfield protection and increasingly are making silly mistakes.

We've played good sides but even against QPR first half our back four almost contrived to hand them goals a couple of times.

To use a Coyle phrase, accepting that our back four will sometimes be exposed, I still think we are conceding a lot of goals when actually our midfield are back and covering and it's just slack play from the defence.

So should we get a coach in to drill the back four and team in general on how to organise themselves when we haven't got the ball?

"This was always going to happen with the fixtures we have started off with. What's worring me though, Coyle is so stubborn with 4-4-2 and tactically naive and he isn't learning from it. The midfield yesterday was Eagles, Petrov, M Davies and Reo Coker. Only one of those can bloody tackle. This is against a team who have just scored 8 against Arsenal. Coyle was expecting Reo Coker to be the only defensive midfielder in that team, protecting Cahill and frigging Zat Knight. He isn't the best player in the world, but I don't understand why Muamba was on the bench. We need players in that centre midfield against a team of United's class with a bit of steel and fight and who could put a tackle in. M Davies can't do that. He did nothing to change it. 3 nil at half time and he carries on with the same team until the 60th minute. Seriously what the f**k. He's pissing me right off. We've rolled over with no fight in the last 2 games. We've lost 8 of the last 9 league matches. If it was still a certain ginger haired manager in charge at this minute we'd be wanting him out. He's got a lot of work to do has Coyle" - Mad Joosa.

Tbf, we have no reason to think that Bolton fans are any more sane when they're online than Arsenal fans, could be that Coyle practices them regularly but one guy says otherwise so the bandwagon jumping begins.

Anyway, he needs to prove himself at Bolton before he's given a shot at a big club, when Wenger leaves we'll be able to get someone better than Coyle.

Don't know about Owen Coyle, but I kinda wish the David Moyes brigade'd do one as well. He's probably the only manager other than Wenger, Ferguson, Mourinho and Warnock who openly and vociferously complains against officialdom. At the moment, it can be swept under the carpet as he's the gaffer at Everton, a club who have been out of the spotlight for a good 25 years.

At the Arsenal, he'd be truly under the microscope. We know only too well that if you keep trying to undermine refs and linesmen (or women), you're rubbing up the wrong people in the wrong way. (The Phil Dowd Show at St James' Park last season, way too much of a coincidence, no?)

I voted for OC in this thread but I am not on his brigade. In fact, I do not think anyone ever suggested (or I havent read about it) on GW that OC be the next Arsenal manager. The OP started this thread to see how far AW has regressed rather than how awesome OC is as a manager.

Tbh, I'd still take OC over AW any fuckin day... in fact, at present, I'd take a donkey with Alzheimer's over AW. Just because we won 3-0 at home against Bolton does not change the gross mismanagement AW has done over the last 5-6 seasons.

Well, you clearly missed the part where I mentioned AW fuckin us over for 5-6 seasons so please do away with the stats of 7 games this season.. thats really clutching on to straws! If it was just this season, I'd give the old fart a chance but he has been fuckin over Arsenal for a long time now. And let me reiterate since I probably didnt make myself clear in my previous post... If AW were to be fired tomorrow, I'd prefer some other manager than OC but atm, I'd take a donkey with alzheimer's over AW and I do rate OC more than a donkey.

Selective quoting will only take u that far. No where in my last 2 posts did I say that OC should be the one replacing AW, should he be fired, moved on... I said I'd take anything over AW at this moment and that includes a chair or table.

I think its time to dig up old threads from the start of the season so we can hold Wenger to the level that we expected him to perform this season. I think considering the summer we had he's managed a good job.

Who remembers pre-season banter from the telly?

> "Aye well you haave to luke at what Liverpool hav dunn. They've brought in top, top quality players and are probably on fur one of those champion league spots."

> "Aye well Arsenal you no what we say, pass the ball unt the back of the net. But this season they look like they'll struggle, no cesc, no nasri. Then there's Manchester United, City, Chelsea, Tottenham and Liverpool. I don't think deres room for Arsenal in dur top 4".

We had the same fucking pundits say the same fucking shit for the past, what? THREE seasons? And every season we hit around about this spot, with seemingly less and less. Surely that demonstrates that Wenger is pretty good at what he does. I mean we can always throw him out and get Coyle in and reshuffle.... but.... Liverpool? They do that. So do Spurs.

EDIT: Oh lol, I've just realised how old this thread is. Sorry!
