Match Reaction vs Fulham 10/11/12

[Özim]

The guy was MotM today, Anybody who expected him to come in and Score 30 odd goals thias season, was deluded.

He was going to take time to settle in. He got 2 goals today it can only help his confidence.

I doubt it will help that much, he's scored the odd goal this season and never really kicked on or looked any better.

Today he scores two and should be full of confidence and yet passes up a hattrick chance, not a good sign IMO.

The Chelsea profit thing is a misnomer because they got an extra 45m just from winning the CL and still only made a profit of 1.5m. But back to the issue athand This club, this team. How low can you get?

[Maestro]

A good match for those who like to see average at best teams slug it out in a match full of goals.

Anyone thirsty for quality football would have left critically dehydrated.

We've sold off all our best players and this is where our level is now. Fuck knows how much worse it will get when we continue to sell the best of what is left.

Wenger is putting square wheels on axles meant for round wheels.

Not sure he passed it up and i doubt him not taking the pen, is going to stop him from scoring again.

ANd i don't buy that because he is on a hatrick he should take it. Happens all the time players on hatricks but someone else taking them.

i don't think our defensive issues will be resolved and i don't think our attack will be as potent as years past - i realised that in the run in last season and came to the conclusion top four is over. even if we had a semi competent defence it would still be undermined by the managers lunatic ideas on the pitch.

i can't and won't walk away from every single game completely and utterly broken by it because i want to find a reason to come back again and watch the game, because i'm a supporter, i love the club. so this time, i'm happy with giroud scoring two, agreed it would've been nice for him to get a third but it would've been more enjoyable to see some sort of defending.

will it change? probably not for quite a while, hence why i think we'll finish in the lowest position under wenger this season but fuck me, there is still some positives to be had somewhere otherwise there is no point for me even watching our games anymore. it's painful mostly at the moment but you go through that with things you are committed to. let's get rid of wenger and the board, that would be great as it would mean a change and perhaps a new direction. but i can't 'give up'. i've been in and given too much of my life to arsenal to throw my hands up and wait for the corpse to decompose.

we can shout for what we want, balls out with passion but let's be realistic about the situation. wenger and the board are most likely here to stay for quite a while. that could leave us midtable like the mid-90's, although far more damaging because of the exclusive top four club being shut off with the ffp. but i'll be there, fuck it. and the only thing that will keep me coming back is finding something to enjoy, otherwise there is no point at all.

We are football supporters. There's precious little football going on at this club right now. Nothing to actually support. The club has been hijacked by money grabbing ****s, the players don't seem to give a shit, the manager spouts shit about winning the big prize, 4th place. What are we actually supporting? The essence of Arsenal? The memory of it? This isn't about taking the good times with the bad, this is about a club that claims the bad times are a trophy. I sat through the Terry Neill years, Don Howe, George Graham. Often very tough going but never as utterly futile as what we are enduring now. There was still a club back then, but I don't see that now. I see a corporation feeding off those memories in order to keep the audience captive. And you feel a bit of a **** to be so easily manipulated. makes you want to switch off if only to maintain a little dignity.
