    I think we are. We're just not top 3 material, and the gap between the top 3 and 'the rest' is massive now. And it's sad that we've become one of 'the rest'.
    OK, the top 3 have more resources than us and maybe it's not unreasonable to expect they'll finish above us but the gap shouldn't be this big. Yesterday showed it's massive. Maybe that's what I learned from yesterday. Utd didn't get out of 2nd gear and swept us aside with ease. The final scoreline massively flatters us. It was a hammering in all but the final score.

    We dominated from the 90th minute on.

    Having been on this board some time I guess I shouldn't be surprised by such reactions but I think we all accept (although are not happy that) we're not serious competitors to the top 3 any more.

    So...did we learn anything new from the game and result?
    No! We already knew that Wenger has continued to buy very average players and claim they will be world beaters! 2) Our team does not have an ounce of fight in them, they just turn up and claim their wages! 3) we know we will win fuck all under Wenger and this current board!

    i learnt that we had no winning mentality in our squad which probably stems from the fact wenger wore a long coat on the touchline which prevented him throwing his arms up in the air.

    It depends, illusionary perhaps, but I think yes it is not. I am not racist against extra time but sometimes you must accept you are superior unless they are superior also.

    tbh bottled water companies have missed a trick over the past few years. guaranteed weekly product placement.

    do you have to constantly make racist remarks on here? there's an abundance of water in europe, we get it. but please refrain from rubbing it in odegbami's face.
