Shocked at how shit we are. The end.:ilt:
Sunday was bad enough but that was pathetic.
Leno’s worst performance by a mile.
For years we had an elite striker that was consistently undermined by an incompetent defensive unit.
We needed to make changes.
So we got rid of the elite striker.
Not the result we wanted.™
Sunday really hurt but tonight was half-expected. Our away form is still horse shit and a fluked win over Watford did nothing to change that.
Thankfully United and Chelsea still have to slug it out, so if and that's a big fucking if, we can sort out our lives against Leicester there's still the possibility of 4th.
Pretty gutted truth be told, I've tried to give Emery as much goodwill as I can but we're staring down the barrel of a season no different to what Wenger would have delivered. Lets hope his Europa League experience can save our season.
fuhking dipsticks. Just fuhk off!

More seriously: fuck this shit.
The mentality at the club remains awful.
We had an open goal to go 3rd on Sunday and above Spurs.
So, of course...
Improbably, results went for us so much this week that a result tonight would still have given us a decent chance of top 4. Wolves are no pushovers but 3-0 at half time? Piss off.
The squad is bollocks. Too old and weak plus many tried and tested Wenger duds.
We need a revamp but I doubt Emery will get the players in.
I fear a very long bumby road ahead :(Quote:

Now it’s all this bollox.
Seen it many times before, absolutely brilliant at times but you can be sure once the dust settles we will revert to type.
"bumby" ?Quote:

It’s like the players don’t want to bother away from home. If the Manx and Chelsea draw or Chelsea draw then we may still be able to fluke 4th but away to Leicester i won’t be surprised if we get beat.
Or away to Burnley on the last day of the season, Dyche will have them fired up for it.Quote:

Maybe the players are just more interested in winning a trophy than the day to day grind of the league. The Europa league is the get out of jail card.Quote:

Really.....!!!???
The squad is the same, the tactics seem to work mostly, the rotation is unnecessary imo but it's what Emery likes to do, so what the fuck gives!
The only factor I know is an omen is that fucking putrid mint green away kit! Evil, nasty, horrific colour - whoever signed that kit off needs to be raped and then shot! :fury:
I’m hoping that’s the case and they’ll raise themselves for Valencia. They sure as hell look done as far as the league is concerned.Quote:

If the manager cannot bring the right attitude then players from afar will be needed to instill it.
If some cash flushed Sultan or oligarch decides to invest in any of the teams below us we are dropping into the next level mini league. Spurs, Chelsea Utd will surely fix their own problems, sharpish. Will we?
Which would be vaguely acceptable if it was the difference between finishing 6th or 8th which doesn't really matter.Quote:

Where's their pride, FFS?
Emery asked for what happened on Sunday with a team full of losers and the knock-on effects of that clearly were felt last night against a very good sideQuote:

I mean we'd all rather win the EL but it's a dangerous game he's playing if he's gone all in with that. If we don't get to the final now he's got a lot of stick coming his way.
FFS. Even if we'd taken a point this week we'd have been in 4th.
Utter wankers.
did any of our players make the PFA team?
Yeah, Mustafi.Quote:

We don't have Mustafi to blame neither and as much stick as Ozil gets....he's not the reason for us conceding as foolishly as we did in neither of the last two games.
Leno had a nightmare yesterday - at fault for the second and third goals.
Mikhi and AMN were really bad too - the former kept coming inside so everything was overloaded down the left with nothing coming from the right at all. AMN was beaten far too easily for the third goal too.
Kill the fucking lot of them :fury:Quote:
