They wear purple, that's all I got.

Nice to have players on the bench full stop :pac:

Knowing our luck, the bench will collapse half way through, resulting in all the players on it getting injuries.

"And here is the 6th placed keepper, Huddart, making his first competitive injury debut for Arsenal."

Typical Wenger drop the specialised right back replace him with one if your only two fit CBs and play your cover left back at CB.

In fairness, Chambers is more a RB than a CB, but I agree. I'd much rather have Bellerin start on the right and Chambers in the middle. Bellerin is one of the few positives from the last while, he's been improving every game.

Chambers is much more of a CB than a RB. His attacking play is quite poor.

Not that interested in the CL as we have no chance of winning it and only make up the numbers anyway. Therefore i'd have liked to have seen Hayden getting a game at Cb and getting the experience needed for the EPL. It won't do his confidence a lot of good if Wenger picks a LB instead of him.

Our bread and butter football is the EPL and it's the competition I prefer to watch and try to win. If we can't win our own league then we can't win this.

Well no one told Liverpool Real or Chelsea in the last few years that. Tayto you are a good man but it's a little silly to dismiss it.

Both their first choice strikers are on the bench, they have another forward playing at left back according to flashscore, which seems odd.

Currently top of the Jupiter League but have not won last three games in all comps

I really do not believe we can win this with the team we have.
I'd prefer to give the EPL our best shot.
Not enough investment in the team to challenge for the Cl in my opinion.

Love watching Sanchez. He is beginning to settle in. Love his tricks.

greendom

Chambers lucky not to pick up another booking

tayto lover

Sanchez should have taken that free.

greendom

Ridiculous from Flamini - lucky to get away with that

AdamD

Our corners continue to be greater chances for the opposition than us.

tayto lover

I see Wenger has them practicing corners.

:rolleyes:

greendom

How often do our corners turn into attacks for the opposition - too often !

Roddy23

Dortmund winning 2-0 away to Gala

If only we had someone solid in front of defence to prevent that. :pac:

Not watching the match tonight myself, basically no internet. So I'm relying on yous to inform me. :P

Can see us scoring, but also conceding

Soups123

First 20 just like Saturday piss poor, hard to see what our game plan is here

Come on Arsenal!

Soups123

Refs a big homer here

tayto lover

No speed in our attack at all lately.
Not much urgency about us yet either.
This team are there for the taking. Need to put this to bed early.

It's us who are there for the taking, we are piss poor

Side has plenty of pace, has to be tactics as to why we never have runners in behind and seem to play at snails pace

If that is the case then as I already thought Wenger is a very poor tactician.

Gringo180

Its just all gone very stale isnt it. We are so predictable.

Scraping a win tonight would lift a lot of pressure for the last 3 matches with the Galatasaray result. Can we do it or will we need a result on the last matchday? :pac:

Muirshin Durkin

We are ****e, looked it all season, the worrying thing, can't see us picking up form anytime soon. Done with this season already.

jonneymendoza

Ridiculous. Keep it up lads and every single member here will ask for wengers head

Muirshin Durkin

Feel sorry for Sanchez, Barcelona to this crap.

I think Ozil discovered the same thing.

Soups123

I challenge anyone to say Wenger isn't killing this club. What a fcukin disgrace the club has been let continue with these levels of performance

I really really hope the home fans make our voice heard at the next game.

**** that, at least Sanchez is playing better than the dross around him, Ozil has not.

Topbike77

I think its the mentality of the team more than anything, the ability is there. There just doesn't seem to be any passion. Alexis and chamber are the main people who look like they want to win.

Marty McFly

Jaysus that was some turnaround .

I'll take ity least we finally won a game a rare thing these days.


But we really need to start improving and soon.

Delighted for Pod to he gets a lot of stick but does pop up with goals.

Its Only Ray Parlour

We were fúcking awful. I'm not proud of that win.

Might seem a bit dramatic but i'd rather not take it, covers Wenger again so we'll trod along just above water.

I don't mind more pain if it forces the club in the right direction long term.

That score tonight hides too many problems

Gringo180

Poor poor performance but a win is a win. I just hope Wenger doesnt mention mental strength in his interview. Hopefully with the return of Walcott it will inject a bit of urgency into our play.

x PyRo

Have no idea how we're churning out such crap performances week after week, but happy out with how that ended up!

I'd still rather see the team win regardless of how I feel about management, board, players or tactics. The score didn't hide anything imo, everyone knows we didn't deserve it.

gosplan

For now, without looking long term, we need Arteta back asap.

I know some people aren't his biggest fan and he hasn't shown up against quality opposition but he keeps the whole thing ticking over against weaker teams.

We always look ****e and pedestrian without him playing.

Ardennes1944

The battery is dying on my laptop and I left the charger at work, will someone put up what wenger says in general please

Alfred Borden

Absolutely dire again tonight but will take it. Podolski is some finisher, pity he doesnt have more to his game. Thought we looked a lot better when Flamini and Wilshere came off. Santi was a passenger too. Sanchez deserves so much better.

Honestly Mickeroo I have felt that way every time before but not now, the club is been ran too cozily everyone happy with mediocrity.

I want change now and results like tonight drag us on and delays it

wandatowell

Must be some jump down in attitude from Barcelona to Arsenal for Alexis.


His reaction at the final whistle say more than anyone ever could.

You would rather we didn't win

And you got a load of likes

Fcuk right off

tayto lover

Anyone who doesn't think we need a DM and a CB should be forced to watch that game over and over again.

Yeah.

I'm sorry. I get there's disharmony but we won and that's always always good.

We're going through horrible form and a load of injuries. Losing more games does not help in any way.
