What the fuck is wrong with you people? He was coming down with flu or whatever that bug was. He was under the weather and he played accordingly.
The expectations of some here are ludicrous. He had a bad game. Big fucking deal. Also from the sounds of some here, he has been crap from day 1. That is simply wrong.

He has had quite a few games like this. Some good ones too. His performances have more to do with the fact that he's struggling for fitness and trying to adapt to the physical side of the game - the same things Giroud was saying last season. That's fine and I don't expect him to start showing his best until after a few months, maybe a season. That said he could've done better on occasions where we might've been in on goal in a game we lost. This is a match reaction thread. Where you talk about things that might've influenced the game or summat. I'm not saying signing Ozil was a mistake or criticising his inability to take on 4 players and score. Sorry if that's causing you emotional pain.Originally Posted by Steve French
never let the truth get in the way of a good whinge.
If he had left out Arteta and Ozil who were showing signs of sickness, he wouldn't have had enough players available to fill the bench, Jenks and Hayden had to be driven up on Sunday as bench cover for Merts & Rosicknote, maybe there was no-one left sober enough to travel.

What would you rather have? An empty bench or a bench full of Bendtners? I'd rather play with 8 on the pitch. We had a clear out of all the shit we'd accumulated over the years and that freed up cash to buy and retain better players. We are light in numbers but this is the start of heading in the right direction.

That reminds me. It was sickening to hear the 'he's an Arsenal man' talk as well as having to stomach him scoring the winner against us and sliding on his knees. Pure vomit material.
Sell them the best player in the league, call him an Arsenal man before a game and then watch him score the winner against us. You couldn't make it up.
Is it not an FA requirement to have a full bench available?I would have preferred to have had a fully fit starting 11 but I suppose AW played the cards he had been dealt on the day and got what he got, thems the breaks.
Exactly.
The main aim over the summer was to get rid of all the crap and create a team spirit through players that have something to offer. We done that bar 1 player, Bendtner. It was a pretty decent effort tbf.
Now it's time to sprinkle the current squad with top quality players over the next 2-3 transfer windows.
After that, it's time
He is shit and we need to sell him. Can't believe we swapped him for Gervinho. Wonder if Roma will do a swap deal.
No pain for me. I just think you're batshit crazy if you think he has played a number of games like that. With hindsight, you can clearly see, he was not well.

What's a number of games out of the handful he has played. That Man Utd performance was nothing unusual from him, no - he has often been on the periphery of games...some games he has made a good impact when he is allowed a bit of time, some he has not. He is struggling to last the pace physically and mentioned how quick the game is in England, which is probably to be expected - flu or not. He is having a positive impact overall, but when he makes silly mistakes and ducks out of headers, we're going to talk about it in a match reaction thread, and when he has a fantastic first touch and lays it on a plate for others we're going to talk about it in a match reaction thread.
