Match Reaction vs Wigan

[Letters]

he did.

In which thread? I didn't see that post. I've not seen anyone say that 'for enjoying a win'.
People have generally been (rightly) called fickle for, say, massively over-reacting to the QPR result which was our first loss after 7 straight wins.

haven't been this pissed off with a result since we lost to Ipswich at Portman Road in the semi final of the carling cup first leg......as cross as i was with the 8-2 at least understandable considering we had a decimated squad. It wasn't even the two suicidal goals we conceded, they came in the first ten minutes with no offence to Wigan Athletic we should have had no problem coming back from that and to be honest up till the half hour mark it seemed almost inevitable that's what we would do....the fact is from then onwards they probably looked more likely to increase their lead for all our possession. Ramsey I have no problem with him personally, but it's clear since his injury in 2010 he's no longer good enough for us he has virtually no pace and his passing is atrocious, and with Arteta's injury I strongly believe we are facing an uphill battle to finish in the top four.
The truth is we have been over relying on Van Persie for goals, that well has dried up and we don't have anyone who can ease the burden on him.

Just want this season to end and end now.

Its been a shocking season, very few high points and even those werent even that high.

Our performances against relegation threatened Pub Teams has been nothing short of diabolical

Losses to Wigan, Blackburn and QPR and draws v Bolton and Wolves. Have not done the double over any of the 5 and its pathetic. Our so called world class manager has been out-thought by 5 Pub Team managers.

Thank you Wenger for what you did from 1996-2005 but thats the past and we are living in the present and we are as bad as it gets. If we want any sort of future, please leave and take the majority of these worthless players with you.

There really is no point in moaning about the shit players we have, we knew we had them at the start of the season and we know we're stuck with them until the transfer window opens. No point in going over old ground continuously.

What we do know however is that it seems that we are lining up some quality players to buy this summer and we may have a pretty decent team next season.

Yes this result is bloody annoying and it's frustrating when we don't play as well as we can and drop points, but ffs it wasn't going to be a walk in the park tonight and your fucking kidding yourselves if you thought otherwise. The only downside is we threw the game away ourselves and that is what is annoying.

We have lost 2 games in the last 11 which isnt bad going, and the arsenal of previous years would have lost a lot more in this period. We can't win every game for christs sake and there are going to be fuck ups every now and then. I bet we go and beat the chavs on Sunday, then there is only 3 games left.

We all pretty much wrote this season off at the start of it. We were 17th at one point and didn't look like getting into the top 10. Let's put things into perspective a bit.

When you lose a game like that, I don't think you can pin it all on the players and hope that a few new signings in the summer will fix things. This was tactical and in most cases, that has always been the problem. When a team nullifies our attacks like that everyone on the field bar one or two of players look like their having a mare, something is seriously up with our tactics and preparation for the match. I don't think it was lazy performance or that we treated it like a training session, we just got caught out early and couldn't find our way back into the game. They were a well drilled team in from. That has always been Wenger's problem. He's a terrible tactician.

Plays like Ramsey and Djourou habing mares...it's expected. But when your strongest performers and most consistent players struggle to break a team down, then the manager has to come up with something. All he does is eff and moan at the 4th official instead of shouting instructions at his players. In the 2nd half he said we lacked patience and rushed things in the final third. That's good assessment but what is Wenger doing about it? That's his downfall and ours and it will continue to be if he doesn't sharpen up. Individual brilliance can only get you so far and we were beaten today be a well drilled team. Martinez has his system set up and knew how to play against us. He's not the first manager to out fox Wenger.

Not really, we did not loose today game because Martinez out smarted wenger or QPR we lost it because we were utter shite and never turned up.

And i hope you include Theo in your worthless players thing, he was aboutas useful as chocolate tea pot today.

He did get the better of Wenger though. That 2nd half is arguably the most blunt I've seen us going forward this season. You had Wigan defenders passing their way out of trouble because there was little pressure applied from us. Al Habsi wasn't even taking normal goal kicks, he was passing it out short so they could play from the back.

We just never got to grips with the game at all.

I include all of them

Im not in the business of critisising one single player.

We win as a team and lose as a team. The irony is we arent a team. A bunch of shite ass individuals who can thank the fuck out of RVP that he has single handedly kept us up this season but even he has gone off the boil as of late but when youre carrying a whole club with no help from money loving ****s then its to be expected.

Fuck the lot of them. Hope Newcastle get 3rd. They deserve it. We, Spuds and Chelsea have been the laughing stock of football this season. I would put Liverpool in that but they have won more trophies this season than Wenger has in 7 years
