Wenger really is clueless and he's so fucking disrespectful of opponents. He claims he spends all his time watching football. Hard to believe he can't see what a fucking shambles he's built here.

Send out another random team and pray for the best. That's the full extent of this guy's preparation.

Starting to think levy signed wenger about five years ago on the quiet.

We are so, so fucked for the foreseeable with this stubborn old goat in charge.

When teams let us play, like Bournemouth, we can do all that fancy stuff because we have time.

When teams decide to deny us that time, we are absolutely fucking crap.

It just seems like we've got less players in the field.

Giroud static up front. Bellerin and Walcot on each others toes. Iwobi isn't a centre mid. Three centre backs against one striker leaving midfield overrun.

Why can't Wenger see all this and realise it's a mess. Why can't he react quickly to change things around. Why does Bellerin have ridiculous hair. Too many questions to answer.

3 - 5 - 2 can work provided you have a manager who knows how to play it and tactically instructs his players to flourish under it ........... unfortunately our dinosaur isn't that person and he's too egotistical to get help.

Central midfield non-existent once again - Chelsea normally play too holders like Matic & Kante there whereas we've got Iwobi & Elneny all over the shop.

Chelsea are going to rape us on Sunday if we carry on like this.

It would have been good to have Lucas Perez and Joel Campbell come in for this match. But they are better off on another loan.

Corner for us. Hope we don't concede.

Kolasinac on for Holding. Switching to a back 4. Not that it will make a blind bit of difference. Monreal CB again then,

Kolasinac is pure class

Great by Alexis. Dodgy offside though.
