    It is Emerys' fault for sure, however the lack of effort on the pitch is down to him, as his his reaction, it's unacceptable for a player nevermind captain to behave that way, he's paid handsomely and criticism is part and parcel of that.

    Get rid while we can still salvage the season.

    Hopefully Xhaka can be flogged as well, what a cunt.

    Can’t stand this team and the bunch of losers it has in its ranks. Except an obvious few.

    Yeah that's it for me, just hope the next manager is more logical and idenitifies issues with the team and doesn't stick with players who just aren't up to scratch.

    No they bloody haven't!
    It's not Xhaka's fault he's not good enough, it's not Ozil's fault he's not playing.
    Emery has massively mismanaged all of this.
    This.

    I didn't really give a shi* about him cupping his ear and only knew he told the fans to f off once I'd got home....but did he really need to walk off in slow motion?

    Ozil got all kinds of abuse for the same thing earlier this year, albeit in a much bigger game, but we had even less chance of getting back into that one. The score was 2-2 here FFS.

    problem no guarantee that the next manager will be any better. United have gone through more managers and spent a lot of money and they are below us.

    even if we brought in allegri who has plenty of pedigree, no guarantee that he will turn this lot into champions. however, could be worth the risk.

    EVen though I wouldn't want Mourinho near he made an interesting comment
    "I Think the biggest problem down there is that they are not doing the obvious things correctly like they’re not playing the correct players in the correct positions...they’re not starting their best players, players like Lucas Torreira who I personally feel was one of the best players in the last World Cup and also for Arsenal playing as the base defensive midfielder, I really don’t understand this situation and also Özil...you have to understand that Mesut is not Messi or Ronaldo, he won’t carry your team single handed, he’s more of a creative genius and a creative genius is only as good as the attack in front of him, all these years at Arsenal he did not have the right players in front of him and now when he does, for some reason he is omitted entirely, people say he is lazy but they can’t be more wrong, Özil works very hard and the football for him it’s not a job like most of the players these days, football is his life, he enjoys football ...In England I have got the idea that people here will prefer guys who can run and run and run for 90 minutes, so even when those guys have a bad game people will say oh atleast he gave it his all, people in England don’t welcome smart runners and Özil is a smart runner...so I think people in England will take a runner over a creative genius.[On what would be Arsenal's best xi] I’d say Leno, Bellerin, Holding, David Luiz, Tierney, Lucas Torreira, Ceballos, Özil, Pepe, Aubameyang, Lacazette. “Why no Guendouzi?” Guendouzi is a fantastic talent but in my career I’ve seen time and time again youngsters with immense talent do nothing because they started starting regularly for their clubs and their desire to improve went with that, they became stale , I don’t want Guendouzi to end up like that, he has leadership qualities as well...I will like to say one thing that Arsenal on paper have one one of the best attacks in the league but are suffering from a lack of creativity"

    He's pretty spot on about everything he's said, if only we had a manager who thought as logically.

    Yeah, as much as I despite him, I can't argue with any of that.
