    Hmm, I'm not sure I completely agree with Letters, but he's not completely wrong either. Their goals were agains the run of play and were completely avoidable. We just didn't create enough. Or anything.
    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.

    Not like Wenger saying they had Europa League, it's not fair they were more prepared

    We are the better side, but we weren't the better side on Sunday.
    If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.

    I think that is it. We didn't play well and lose, we didn't create a lot.

    I still think we need a defensive player, I don't Merte is going to cut it all season and I worry if Coq's performance was a one off or with added pressure and expectation now going to be the norm.

    Yep. There are plenty of games where we keep knocking on the door to no avail but on Sunday we was not one of those. We just didn't react at all to conceding the first goal, the game completely passed us by after that. West Ham looked far more likely to score a third than we did a first due to hitting us on the counter when our powder puff attacks broke down.

    The better team on the day definitely won, possession means sod all if you're not stretching a defence and working the keeper. We made it very easy for West Ham, Bournemouth will probably give them more of a game.

    I can never understand why Merts gets so much attention. It must be the height thing. I’d say he should have done better and made sure our line wasn’t so high for the freekick but other than that he wasn’t bad. I’ve seen people mention him for the second goal and say he should have done better to close the shot down. I’ll have to look at that again, but what caught my attention for that goal was the way Kos just put his hands behind his back and stood like a statue when he could have also charged the shot down. Also, I wasn’t impressed with Kos for the first goal and the lack of awareness on the runners. But overall I don’t think either player are a big problem. I’m just knit picking.

    Coquelin didn’t have a bad game either. He just made some bad passing decisions and I think that boils down to the fact that he was left alone in the middle of the park so he was taking more risks with his passing. When next to Cazorla we won’t have that problem. It’s the Ramsey effect. When he advances too far up the field it leaves our DM’s exposed. With Arteta we had a similar problem Arteta would go for the sideways safety pass instead of risky.

    Give the WUMming a rest. I deleted that post, in future I'll just start banning people from threads.

    I literally don't see the harm in it, I don't like using WUM because I can't abide some of these acronyms

    But what is the problem?, if people get wound up than that's their problem. If stuff is posted that is meant to attack someone on a personal level I can understand (but with a few exceptions we are all strangers here). I've personally never said anything to another poster that I regret saying, and equally I've never received anything that I seem to be unacceptable abuse.

    People have said it doesn't contribute to discussion?, well I'm sorry to say this but we aren't the panel on Question Time we aren't always going to confine ourselves to the hot topics of the day.

    Letter's is a funny guy. Deletes my post about the way he and Doug wums and then leaves his own threat up about banning people.

    Here are some recent examples of Doug and Letters on the 'WUM'

    Anyone seen Zim?

    Yeah but you're an idiot.
    Another example. Maestro asks you genuine question, Doug wums and you encourage it with a instead of a banning threat and delete.

    Hypocrisy at its finest.

    HCZ makes a valid point.
