I think I've just gone beyond disliking Wenger
Our players are operating without a manager, sad state of affairs this. All credit to the players for still being in touching distance of 4th spot, all on their own.

'WHEN HE HAS A PLAN, WE BACK HIM, WHEN HE DOESN'T......WE KEEP QUIET'
Only gripe I have is why Ramsey started and why he wasn't hauled off as soon as possible
scoring first saved our blushes otherwise I think it could've been 5-0.
I've come to the conclusion I've been way too critical of the players. No one is managing them and helping them out when they need it the most. We could have played shit and still won this game, if only the manager was awake at any point during that game and bothered to rectify our problems.
Really can't see it any other way tbh.

I don't understand the stupidity of sitting back when you're 0-1 up. We had openings, we had chances after Ozil's goal. From about the half-hour point, it was all them. A fact Wenger chose to blindly ignore at half-time.
I was willing a bit of luck to come our way. A last minute equalizer. Just to shut them up. They've done it to us so often, it would have been nice to do it to them.
Alas, it would not have been deserved. We've made that sh!thead Kane look world class and, to worsen matters, we've invited the question of who's better: Kane or Sanchez

A season without a win over Spurs is just sick.
Fuck.
Bad day all round. Bad selection, bad performances, bad decisions, bad reactions.
Not that Ozil was the worst performer today, but if we were going for a containing and breaking approach then surely Rosicky and Walcott were better options. But now that WUMger's favourites are back the team will suffer. Cazorla saved his worst performance for three months for today and Ramsey was almost as bad. Only Coquelin of the front six played well and he was let down by the carelessness and idiocy of all those around him. No change to the plan or personnel either as the game got out of our control, so the only hope was for some individual brilliance. But considering we hardly got the ball or gave it away at every opportunity, there was little chance of that happening.
None of his decisions were directly costly for us, but Atkinson was just shocking. Every first foul by an Arsenal player was a booking while Spurs were getting away with hundreds of fouls, dives and pulls in the box. Not to mention giving them goal kicks for corners.
We could have overcome Atkinson and Spurs though, if he'd picked a more suitable team for the situation and had a better than 23% passing accuracy.
With Ozil, Welbeck and Wilshere soon back, players like Oxlade, Cazorla and Walcott and probably even Coquelin will have to face up to being dropped for playing well and making us a more effective outfit. Chambers back to RB permanently too probably.
Momentum well and truly destroyed again. Maximum points and a healthy goal difference should be the minimum from the upcoming run of fixtures now.
