That was my point you only see this as a big fuck up because it may cost us the Cl fine i get that, but how we fucked up last season was way worse.

Lets be honest at the start of the season and trough the middle we all thought we may be in the europa league did we not so it was not a big shock we play in it.

The board has said even if er drop put its not a big deal.

What im saying is if you look at the sqaud its always been week from the summer and could have cost us at some point. Being 8 pointd clear of spurs never meant a thing to me because i knew with a few bad results and injurey to key players we'd be right where we were.

Last season we had a sqaud that should have won 2 cups at least and they failed badily this year we never had that sqaud thats the problem.

And had spuds not messed up they have got 3rd by now anyways.

Then the manager should be sacked as it's down to his incompetence.

It's all very good saying the squad has been weak from last summer, but whose fault is that for not planning and replacing the players we lost with quality?

Yup, I don't think Arsene has any excuses left, not that he should have been given so many chances anyway. Aside from the fact he's made a complete mess of the squad and he has from both the lack of quality and the large amount of redundant high earners. Moreover tactically he can't motivate this team, I mean 3 weeks ago we were a shoe-in for 3rd place and look at us now.

Honestly what does Arsene really offer us that any other hungry competant couldn't?

I'm sure there are other managers out there that can make the club money without winning anything.

Maybe they can, but he is meeting their targerts in their eyes so why get rid. They should have got rid last summer but for some reason they did not.

I posted this yesterday;

Games without Arteta: W0 D4 L4

As for Song, there's no questioning his ability, he has progressed immensely well and is to be able to defend and attack well, but the point is he needs to learn when is the right time to attack/do something fancy and when he needs to stay back and pick up the pieces in case our attack falls down and they break away,especially since he's not exactly the fastest of players.

Yep abd this is why we need M'villa he can do that job and it will put pressure on Song to up his game, right now he knows he will start no matter if he fecks up or not.
