You should feel sorry for Merts, Kos and Gibbs. They looked out of their depth. Awful performance from the senior defenders.Quote:

FT 2-0 Dortmund. Well deserved. We weren't in it for even a minute.
Wenger easily outwitted by Klopp, will be Klopp's easiest challenge of the tournament because Wenger simply doesn't know how to adapt to the opposition at hand. He always, always thinks he can dominate the opposition and pass them to death. Even when the passing is off - even when the opposition is dominating us. It wouldn't surprise me if we had just as much possession as Dortmund tonight. Wenger values it above all else. Above goals, above shots. I think we had 1 shot.
An embarrassing performance brought about by a manager who will never, ever, change his tactics regardless of circumstances. He did us against the gypos on Saturday, he's done us again. Over the season we'll end up 4th in the table and get through to the last 16 of the CL. As usual. It's all on rails, averages, stats, GPS vests, triangles, passes per minute, yards run in the red zone, blah, blah, blah - everything is covered bar the football.
Why are we surprised, we've been here many times before. We have to go with a 3 year plan and new philiosphy. The first two years will be a write off and then the 3rd season we get a new manager when Wenger retires, get rid of the dead wood and bring in players who will fight for the shirt and play attacking football home and away.
We've no chance in the CL. I wouldn't be upset if we were put out of our misery before the last 16 for a change.
I thought United needed some major overhauling, but I see we need to get rid of the following players/ Szceseny, Flamini, Areteta, Mertasacker, Gibbs, Ozil. Not good enough for Arsenal FC.
Can someone please post comical wengers post match comments.
It's not the players though this time.Quote:
