    Which is 100% Wenger's fault. But even so, having one member of the back four standing around with a perplexed look on his face while the game buzzes around him, that's never useful.

    Most irritating game since the last one we played. We had the three points there but the manager is a massive bottle job who thinks you can win a title by statistics alone.

    Mm, that's true.

    I thought Monreal had made a solid start to the season personally

    Any manager who gives a player like Ozil a defensive responsibility is taking the piss. Ozil doesn't play the left for us, he covers the left. Different thing, then stick Monreal behind him and fuck me

    Yeah as a winger and he can even defend against opponents who can't run faster than an OAP.

    What this performance told us more than anything today is Wenger is going for 4th again. If you won't take a few risks to get a key win on your own patch that can generate vital momentum then fuck it, the game's up anyway.

    You're such a vagina sometimes. You have to appreciate a good quality game when you see it otherwise what's the point of watching football? We didn't play badly, we played well - as did Man City, and it was a great game to watch with some fantastic individual performances from both sides and great goals. Sanchez and Wilshere for us, and Aguero, Silva and Fernandinho for them. I was far more pissed off about the Leicester result or even the Crystal Palace performance (despite the win). Today wasn't bad even if we didn't get the win.

    In an alternate universe where we are really going for the title, that game today could have been the decider. How often has 1 point made the difference? If we were away then I could understand the negative approach. But at home, against a weakened opponent, we dropped vital points today. We had the players to get those points, but not the manager.

    We didn't set out to get a point. I thought we got the balance right. A bigger push and rather than us getting the winner, Man City would've been far more likely to pick us off on the counter. Thinking of the home game against Dortmund last year where the team seemed to get carried away.

    NOTE: The location of this post has been moved and the thread title (which was previously Wenger is Leaving) has been manipulated by a notorious pro-Wenger moderator. What was previously a message that contained no profanity and made a comment on a real life event has now been manipulated by a deliberately provocative title. An old and crude propaganda and censorship technique.

    They exploited the glaringly obvious weak point for the first goal. Wenger has seen this for months and done nothing about it. The for the second goal watch Monreal again. It's all very well blaming the guys who actually tried to prevent the goal, yes they failed but they tried. Reality is they were a man short, Monreal was as perplexed as usual, standing around watching. A defence is a unit, take out one of the parts and all the parts fail. Now we have lost Debuchy, I bet this turd gets a run of games on the right so he can carry on destroying cohesion in the defence. Wenger will see it and do nothing. He's even got him pegged as cover for CB. What sort of a joke is that?

    Playing Flamini meant we set out not to get beaten. I can even accept that in some ways, after the hidings we got last year. But when he saw the gypos were light in midfield, were playing Silva behind the striker and particularly when he saw the first 15 mins he could have adapted to take advantage. But he didn't. He never does. It gets wildly frustrating.

    End of the day, two home points dropped. Manager at fault.
