match reaction v chelsea

[Bumble]

Apperently he got sent off without getting send off, some smart rule the FA uses when they dont want to punish their friends...

I thought he appealled against the punishment and suppose while that is being heard he can't take the punishment.

I don't see the point of criticising the ref though. We were already down 2-0. The ox obviously thought it was going in and so did the ref and it was a penalty and that would have been 3-0. So we actually did better with ten than eleven as they took 75 mins to score the next three instead of just 15 minutes for the first three.

Copy and paste from the liverpool game. Rodgers and Mourinhop obvioisly did their homework and worked on our weaknesses and thats what real managers do. rob the ball of Arteta or cazorla, play in in the same behind the out of position FB and score. Im no coach or tactician but it was obvious to me where Chelsea would attack us and who they targeted and it worked to perfection.

What a fucking disgrace these players are, they have no bottle, no heart no leader no fucking shame.

Wenger needs to go, its clear as day the man has taken this club as far as he can. and please spare us the bullshit about him being "the most succesfull manager in the club;s history" because thats a given if you he's been here for 18 fucking years! if he left in 2004 with his record then, people would have had a point about him being the best but right now he's a fucking failure and needs to pack his bags.

fuck off.

I actually see things differently re the players on the pitch.

At the end of the day they follow and do what the manger tells them to do. Yes there are always moments of individual brilliance which deviate from the plan but ultimately they don't step out of line too often.

When wenger tells them how he wants them to play and what he wants them to do, that is exactly what the team do. There isn't anyone in the team who will go against the orders of their boss over 90 mins.

Yes sometimes they don't put the effort in or look like they are trying and that is down to the players themselves, but when they are failing tactically and it looks like they can't be arsed - well that is down to the manager.

It's no good one player shouting at the team and telling them to do other things if they are all worried about not playing the way the manager has told them to.

I think the mentality is more like that of an army squad and their commander. It's the same for every team, the players do what they are told pretty much until the final whistle whether they think it's wrong or not.

If an English club wins the CL and we come 4th do we miss out?

Managers tactics do not tell, you if it is fine to hold your position when your colleague has just been robbed of the ball. Unless indeed we do have a hopeless case of a manager. Time and time again the same crap happens, the ball is lost often in midfield or due to crap play from Giroud. and the immediate reaction is panic stations. Its as if in training it has never been simulated, what to do in these situations. This has been our lot since a long time but more obviously when Vieira and then Gilberto left. the midfield that lost the ball will hold station and pass the predicament over to an overmatched defence. This is a symptom since 2007 and has not been addressed. I see the problem as more symptomatic of the manager. if several squads of varying players exhibit the same deficiencies.over many years....then it obviously isnt the players

[Marc Overmars]

Luckily, I was otheriwse engaged. Sounded like a shitfest, I don't want to watch.

Sorry, but if you get humiliated once or twice, you have to accept it. But it happens regularly now. And I don't believe it's the quality of player.

Wenger just wrote his resignation for me. And that, I do not say lightly.

Yep, it's just not acceptable on any level.

Title challengers don't get mauled by their rivals. Simple.

[JonasTC]

Tell that to Utd who got mauled on OT

[Marc Overmars]

Don't give a fuck about United.

[JonasTC]

It was a comment to your "title challengers dont get mauled"... But i guess it only counts for Arsenal, so we can say "Wenger Out".
