Match Reaction vs Fulham 10/11/12

[She Wore A Yellow Ribbon]

You know my feelings on this. There should be a fucking great broom taken to the whole place, a clean out from top to bottom. Anybody who isn't in this 100% for the club and can appreciate if they get that bit right then the glory follows by default should be fucked out the door. Who isn't sick of all these ****s spouting their bullshit throughout the week only to fall flat on their faces come the weekend? And they want five, six figures a fucking match for this shit. They can fuck off. But this is just the standard, everyday, ongoing problem at the club. This is normal at Arsenal. So I look for those moments of inspiration instead, even if it's a fucking stupid and humiliating comeback against dogshit Reading. It still gets you out of your seat, you still get a little bit back. I would have loved to hear about a Giroud hat trick today. It would have been something to talk about rather than the usual shit. I'm not excusing the defence, I'm not saying anything about the defence because we all know it inside and out. Would have liked to tune in tonight for Giroud's hat trick though - but fuck that, we didn't even try. Like I said, the soul has gone, this club is just a shell game.

If you're on a hattrick noone is going to argue to be honest.

sure. that's how it works with wenger.

[Olivier's xmas twist]

If Podolski isn't a penalty taker Wenger should be sacked on the spot tbh.

Maybe he would have if he was on the pitch.

[Özim]

And Giroud didn't considering he got us the 2nd and 3rd goal?

It's pretty harsh to shit on a player because he didn't disobey the manager to take penalty but has scored 2 goals for us already.

Noone is going to deny a player a hattrick chance to be honest, not even the manager, it does take bottle to take the ball and say I'm going to take it sure, clearly he's not a player who is going to be there when the going gets tough.

He scored goals yes, but that's his job which up until now he's done badly, hopefully he'll kick on from here.

[Özim]

sure. that's how it works with wenger.

IMO in the old days the players did the thinking on their feet, they decided what happened on the pitch....those were the days when we were successful, a team of generals who didn't shy away.

Now they are all sheep who follow everything by the letter with no personnality, opinion or character....we did have one player with character but he left last summer after realising Wenger is clueless.

With players like this you're on a path to nowhere because when things are tough in the business end of competitions they won't deliver under the pressure.

OMG there is so much garbage in this thread.

i would've loved to hear a 3-0 victory with two goals from giroud. the expectation levels are getting ridiculous if the first point of contention is about someone who without we wouldn't even have a point - not even in a position to take three in the last minute. i couldn't care less how long our defence has been shocking, as long as it continues to be then that is the main worry facing the first team. we do not possess strikers with the same ability of those that have left but i'm not expecting them to have to save us because of the relentless fuck ups in defence. because this isn't just a one off, this is repeating again and again and no matter who we have up front, you can't rely on your strikers to bail you out of game your defence is fucking up. we all want passion and stories of new strikers scoring a hattrick, what fan doesn't. but he's on a hiding to hell if that is the level required because his team mates have no idea how to control a game. wengbot controls it all from the bench, everything set in stone before a ball is kicked. no matter how passionate giroud is, if he wants to be playing the next game he'll get in line and follow instructions. why the fuck else are we in these predicaments week after week? not because a striker won't score a third but because our manager has set it all out on football manger the night before.

My match reaction is 'meh'. But I think what's interesting is that if Arteta had put that penalty away, it would still be 'meh'.

Too many strangers on the pitch. Just waiting for the day the bubble bursts (the financial bubble...obviously we're in free fall on the pitch), everyone fucks off, we're in division 1, ticket prices are a tenner and on the pitch are shitter versions of Jenkinson's and Wilshere's. Only then will you not feel like a tit for giving a fuck about the Arsenal. My ETA is 8 years.

You're going out of your way to shit on Giroud. Arteta is the one that bottled it and he should be able to take penalties considering he must have a good average in training and past record with his former club. If Giroud would have missed there would have been no mercy on him.

[Xhaka Can’t]

How was it for those brave enough to tune in or better yet attend

A good match for those who like to see average at best teams slug it out in a match full of goals.

Anyone thirsty for quality football would have left critically dehydrated.

We've sold off all our best players and this is where our level is now. Fuck knows how much worse it will get when we continue to sell the best of what is left.
