    But Elneny, Holding, Gabriel, Gibbs, Perez, Coquelin, Iwobi these are all solid professionals, who are far better than the tepid watery effluence they produced last night.

    Just to put it in context, this is Southampton....Southampton at home......so yes i did expect the players that went out last night to be able to despatch them with a decent game plan and actually having an understanding of their opponents. Rather than this rigid Barcelona light one size fits all plan that you would be right in saying that these players don't have the ability to execute (but given that they are squad players and only one or two of them at any one time will be required to fill in to understudy a rested or injured player they don't need to be).
    Where is the structure in that squad? Where does the creativity come from? Some solid players but how is that team supposed to function? Who are the most creative and dangerous goal threats there?

    What sort of understanding are Holding and Gabriel supposed to have? They don't even speak the same language. Jenkinson we know is poor, Elmo and Coq are limited, too soon for Jeff, Ramsey is horribly out of form and Perez looks nothing like the standard required 17m or not.
    It's a horrible team. They can't play our brand of football and expect a win.

    I doubt any thought was put in to how they would operate. Some had probably never played with each other before and I doubt they will again this season.

    Wenger chucked this game. No two ways about it.

    It looks that way. You're right about Holding and Gabriel. I was first thinking we should have at least kept a clean sheet but when you look at that pairing along with Jenks at right back and Martinez in goal, forget it.

    Happy for you to login and scream a few obscenities at me every morning. Just don't do it in my wife's voice.

    Ah, I thought he was just being arrogant and thought he could beat Southampton with any old dross, despite us being unlucky to beat them recently. Now you say that, I think you probably right. Now I'm angry.

    I posted up a ton of swear words (some of them quite possibly never heard before), all directed at Wenger. Now this art has been zapped, lost to legend, myth, rumour and no doubt conspiracy.

    The gist of it went as follows:

    Wenger, you're a cock, you're a cock, you're a cock!
