My first league game as well. A present for my son. If he wasn't with me, apart from not being there in the first place, I'd have left at halftime.Well that was shite, first game I've been to this season as well
First half was 45 minutes of my life I would like back. Slow tippy tappy shit for 5 min, give to Ramsey to pass to oppo. And repeat over and over. Add to that Swansea time wasting from 1st minute (fuck off Flappy) and an incompetant referee and it's the complete shitfest.
2nd half marginally better, especially with Jack on. Theo had his golden chance and blew it.
There is no excuse for a performance lacking in effort like that. Any manager that gave the tiniest of fucks would have shaken that team up at halftime.
But everyone knew he wouldn't.
And he didn't.
If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
Quite fortunate that i kindly declined the offer for tickets for this and the chelsea game
Can anyone remember the last time we failed to score in two consecutive home league games....i think it was six years ago
Looks like progress tbh :letters:

I don't think I I've said once this season we've made progress, of if I have it's been conditional depending on how we do, so stop the WUMming. You are such a toddler sometimes.Looks like progress tbh :letters:
Not in so many words but you were saying that this unbeaten run is something we haven’t seen since the Invincible era as if it were an indicator of progress As if this season is somehow different to others we’ve seen before. As most warned, it’s a good run but it’s no indicator of progress and we’ve had plenty of seasons where we’ve gone on unbeaten runs or beaten the very best clubs in the world only to end up with a very disappointing league finish. It’s now impossible for us to top last season’s tally of 79 points and we should be aiming for 80+ for club with title ambitions.
Teams will lose but what really alarms me is the way we lost that one. We’ve seen it before during the Cesc era. Champaign football and looking beautiful but no end product. That’s the outcome of Wengerball when it finally starts to work because teams catch on, sit deep and just counter. We’ve struggled for a few years to dominate possession like we used to under the Cesc era. We dropped off a peg and struggled to get that fluidity in our play. But we shouldn’t aspire to reach a level that was never good enough in the first place. Back to that tippy tappy, narrow football with no end product and every manager has a play by play handbook on how to deal with it.
Stating in multiple statements that this run is the next best thing after the invincibles run could be seen to be implied as progress. Anyway, forget what you implied or what I may have inferred from your statement(s).. simple question (I know you never answer simple questions), if we end up 3rd and win the FA Cup, will you want Wenger to stay? How about we dont win the FA Cup?

4 years ago according to Sky.
Apparently there were loads of positives! I do wish he would be more honest sometimes. There's no shame in admitting it wasn't good enough.
