    Quite clearly the worst side I have seen as an Arsenal fan. I can't remember the last time if ever a CL club as we are atm go in to a match v a lower league side like Bradford as overwhelming underdogs. That's how shit we have become. Fortunately I'm an optimistic and I think we will just about stay up this season. Next season?.....well we'll see

    We don't.

    But this is definitely the worst side under Wenger. Contrary to popular belief, Arsenal did exist before then and for much of our history we were much shitter than we are now. But with our resources now, even with the billionaires skewing things, we should be doing much better.

    True. Also true is that there were great Arsenal sides before Wenger and if we do not sack Wenger soon, we will probably not have a great Arsenal side for the foreseeable future

    Yeah. In the 1930s.

    A lot of (particularly younger) Arsenal fans seem to think that the Wenger side of the late nineties and early noughties is the norm for Arsenal. It really isn't.

    but that is now the expected standard. particularly being in this big new shiny stadium. there's no going back to once in a while success, as the whole point of the move was to become a 'super club'.

    I think that's a fair point. But Wenger's role in elevating our status and expectations shouldn't be forgotten.

    Its not forgotten. Thanks for the memories but he is past it now and there should be no sentiment in football.. especially when we are 'trying/pretending' to be a top club.

    We can't can't seriously compete with the likes of Bradford with all the money and resources they have.
