Match Reaction vs Hull City Tigers (away, FA Cup).

[Munchies]

Don't believe any of your bullshit Theo - sorry. If this was a behind closed doors, manager didn't know about it, respect our privacy style meeting then why announce it at all? We had this meeting that worked! Can't say anything about it. Bullshit. As if players getting together to discuss why they are so shit is such a big deal. Shouldn't that always happen? Says a lot about that dressing room and the complacency that rules it. Theo, in the press where he does most of his work, boasting because they team did something they should be doing every week. Anyway, he's the most senior player there, so why does it take "old heads" to organise the basics. Get your arse in gear Theo, you lazy git. 9 games to win, nothing else will do. Do your talking on the pitch for a change.

The guy has been a nothing player for us for 10 years

Did not do anything whatsoever apart from the burst when his contract was running out.

Sign da ting!

We are not going to lie,” he said. “We know as a unit it has been tough

So don't lie - tell it like it is. It hasn't been 'tough' - its been poor and simply not good enough.

This isn't the first time the players have had to gather themselves whilst Wenger has hid his head in the sand. Wasn't the same said after the Utd game? A team meeting on tactics without Wenger?

I get the criticism of Walcott and the talking but he took his chances yesterday. It didn't take a handful of chances before netting. It's a start. Same goes for Giroud. I don't think we created many great chances but at least we put the ball in the back of the net for once.

When you have Wenger as coach in the press contradicting what Sanchez has said about us lacking in hunger and confidence when going out to play, making out as if we're just unlucky, the above statement makes sense. Not sure why Wenger doesn't tell the truth and no wonder why the players have to hold a secret meeting. After a loss and feeling dejected, nothing worse than having a coach that won't say anything of substance at half time or after the game to his players when we're down. A delusional statement about luck and bouncing back the next game is the last thing you want to hear and I can imagine that's all he tells his players. They certainly play like that's all he tells them.

I agree - and have felt for a long time that Wenger's constant excuses and failure to call out shocking performances (notably Manure away recently) breeds complacency, and its complacency that's cost us more than anything else this season. That's why Alexis' comments that the team goes out thinking it's already 1-0 up resonated...

Ian Wright was on Fletch and Sav last week and got asked 'Do you think Wenger is the right man to lead Arsenal in the future' and he couldn't answer it.

Guy needs to get his views sorted rather than pondering on which one benefits him more. He also smiled when Piers Morgan was taking shots at Wenger.

What is he playing at? It's ok to change your mind but considering the things he's said recently and in the past, it makes you wonder. Where is the integrity? I've seen it all if Merson comes out and starts berating vocal fans. Not a conspiracy theorist but it makes me wonder if brown paper bags have been exchanged.

Wouldn't rule it out tbh, or he's being offered some sort of job with the club down the line.

Piers Morgan just supported the banner and the guy who put it up

It's all about the brown paper bags in the end. Not direct bribes but rather the things people will do for publicity, and publicity comes before the cash unless you are higher up the food chain. All Wright had to do was say he agreed with the right to speech but disagreed with what was being said. So simple and with the added benefit of being honest and agenda free. But those hits and clicks and headlines and tweets and all that shit, they don't go to the ones who stay quiet. Everyone is doing it, even Henry has stuck his integrity under the pillow to make a few quid more. The only guys in this with a bit of integrity are the ones who stuck the banner up. They considered their actions carefully beforehand, they have a point to make, they have made it in the right manner. That's why the Wengerites are so pissed, there's nothing easy to dismiss there.

It's very inconvenient to hold the same opinion as Morgan. It automatically suggests I'm a cunt. But the thing about the truth is there's no agenda so anyone can play. It's time for Wenger to leave. Who could possibly present a credible case to the contrary? Not even Wenger can present a case, beyond telling people to piss off and enjoy the two wins against Leicester.
