Pretty much, it was clear all they do is defend once they scored. They got Villa next week, watch how they will get a beating (then again maybe not)Quote:

Well no he hasn't, but it does seem the way people are talking about his iminant return is that he'll make everything ok.Quote:

Maybe we do Underestimate teams. Like NQ says lots of footballers don't care once they get paid. Don't matter which club they play for only diffrence is unlike out team there is lots of quality in other teams so they can get away with it.Quote:

We always have a chance, its whether we take it is the issue. The comps are aim now, lets hope we take them seriously. But hey we can only take it game buy game. We need to beat reading in thr 4th round of the cc before we worry about winning it.Quote:

Utter wank is the best way to describe that game/team/manager
Santos looked better than anyone of our attacking players going forward. How in the hell has this manage to score goals this season, with this bunch. Awful, predictable, clueless, and down right mediocre attacking football.
And nothing against the young man, but I seriously hope Wenger wises up and just get rid of Gibbs, Jenkinson, and Sagna. Fullbacks who don't have the ability to produce anything positive gong forward in today's football are just useless, it's not like fullbacks actually have to defend anymore.

Hallmark of a Wenger team. The team is unrecognisable and has been stripped to the bone, but that performance was just bad as some of the Arsenal teams that player 3-4 years ago. No point in moaning about players lacking character and effort. We've been through so many different players now, it all points towards the manager and our playing style.
Nah he delegates to Steve bould tbh. :coffee:Quote:

We lack character, because of Wenger yes, not because he does not have any, because he did not buy any. Wenger is not mentally strong and this for me was shown along time ago. Us blowing everything after the CC final showed he is not a great motivator.
Lets be honest though. this is not the 1st shock result we have had or even before the last 7 years. We had them in the days of Hamiltion Ricard, or when Quinn used to play for sunderland and these team would beat us at home cause of stupid mistakes.
Lets not forget when Edu arrived how many times he messed up.

You may have a point and most times id say we are disadvantage from the start if you look at the team we put out and the subs which most of the time has not quality in it for when needed. However in games against teams like this you should not need that.Quote:

There will be no impetus on the money men to do anything while the cash rolls in.
It is depressing to think our hope of reform lies in how the Board views the potential value of assets and income
Wouldn't it be nice to have a Club run by those who want to win on the pitch instead of the balance sheet?

Spot fucking on.
We'll see. Ramsey is a nothing player since his injury. Worrying because at this age he should have been able to recover. Jack isn't going to step back in at the same level he was at when he picked up the injury. It will take time. And when you watched how blatantly Norwich took Ox out of the game yesterday you can be sure Jack will be getting plenty of the same. Cazorla got it too yesterday but he looks a tough little bastard. Still missing Vieria - a nasty bastard who can dish it out to teams who come hunting our playmakers. Song did some of that, Diaby for all his size is a girl's blouse, Frimpong looks like he couldn't blow his own hat off if his brains were made of dynamite. Maybe that bastard De Jong would have been a good signing after all.Quote:

You can't go over half a decade with zero ambition to win anything other than the share price sprint and expect there to be a culture of desire in the club. It starts at the top with those vile ****s who configured the club in such a way as to ensure their pay day. Now we have a new **** in charge who's setting us up for round two. Wenger seems to pride himself on being able to sustain mediocrity while shovelling cash as his paymasters, the players soon learn the score and take the money while they wait for a knock at the door. This is a limbo club and not in the dancing way. All about the money. Football doesn't even register here any more. Tip tap, tip tap, slllooooooooow, 99% possession, aren't we wonderful, just look at all those past glories we have to live on. We need Mourinho in here just to disrupt everything and cause a bad atmosphere. I'd rather have chaos than this self satisfied complacency. We have players that know they won't play but won't leave either. Chamakh. That's an incredible indictment of any sporting outfit and shows just how badly wrong the focus is.Quote:

Gnabry stuffed up a couple of times after coming on, but he did two things most others couldn't manage all night; a forward pass into space to create a chance (for Gervais), and the impression that he wasn't actually running through treacle. Really there was nothing more to be taken from it.
Just about right. But Mourinho wouldnt touch us with a bargepole. Can you imagine him having to listen to fat, stuck-up, bloated, red-faced Old Etonian toff Hill Wood telling him what a great club we are, and how happy the board have been over the last 8 years coming fourth each season and getting into the Champions League. Mouirnhou would shit himself laughing and walk out.Quote:

It's tough fighting these half-football/ half-wrestling teams that populate the lower half of the table. You have to be up for it. Our lot plainly weren't apart from the couple I mentioned who seemed okay in the fight. Cazorla's corner taking, that will have to improve though.
And cheap young russian brides at Armoury, no more painful 5 hours flight to Russia. :patrice:Quote:

For the past 3-4 years anyone who has been paying attention could have predicted the outcome of each season in advance - same goes for this season. So it must eventually get difficult to muster enthusiasm for the inevitable.Quote:

Wenger is delivering the goods so to speak. To make the club profit and achieve top 4 football. That's the reality. I mean when was the last time you heard anybody from within the club confidently speak about the club challenging for the title?Quote:

We probably just need to forget about all that shit now and just watch the games for love of football and the entertainment it provides... oh shit, tip, tap, tip, tap, Chinese water torture, any second now he'll pass it forwards, any second now, any second now...Quote:

I can't take watching shit like we saw yesterday though. I'm still fuming at it. It was possibly in the top ten of the worst performances I've watched since I started supporting the team.
No desire. No quality. No thought.
We were a shambles at half time. The whole team should have been kicked up the arse. But we got 45 minutes of exactly the same...possibly worse.
Utterly disgusted with the lot of them.
The return of Jack next game against QPR. You should go. I'll happily take your ticket off you if you cba. For the 10/11 season, the only reason I bothered watching at times was because of Wilshere (homo).Quote:
