I'm sure I've seen that before.

I'll be in the Emirates for it, hopefully not

The only team in the top 6 not to win this week again. Two in a row.
Well done Wenger.

Yeah but in a month's time it'll be another name.

Hard for a Wenger supporter to defend that in all fairness, its easy to say the players are to blame but if you cant get the players up for the big games then your not the right man for the job. Its all been said a million times though so I dont see any major changes coming soon.
I can accept losing to a better team but its the timid showing that annoys me, I wouldnt mind but that was a great chance with City missing some key players.
Same ole same ole, not that I was expecting much more tbh

Misses walks in to see what I am cursing and throwing at the wall, see the match on. She then tells me that she bought me the training top and the away jersey for xmas....I told her to take them back, no way I am supporting this shambles.

We play like a team of 35 yr olds, fragile with the odd glimpse of flair. Kinda like them world charity matches when all the greats come out and play the one off......

Wenger is ****in ruining his own fabulous legend status with this bull****, really wish he would walk away while he has a shred of dignity.

Im not even surprised anymore by them. A quick roll eyes to heaven suffices nowadays. You'd be mad to actually get too upset by it because one thing for sure, the team dont seem too pushed

How has it come to this. From destroying Chelsea to now been 9 points behind them. We're now only 4 ahead of Man Utd for the love of god.

The Icarus effect. Fly too close to the sun and melt.

Some people wear a counterfeit jersey, watch a stream a bitch from on high.

Others go to the games, invest in Arsenal Football Club and get behind their team

George Graham would never have put up with performances like that.
They are all too common now under Mr. Magoo.
Timid wee beasties.

Careful on that high horse mate

Is that really the best you've got? Instead of discussing the points, you start moralising at us? Laughable.

I hope not, otherwise there'll be a load of topless photos of Giroud and Bellerin "lol he's so young" incoming.

They have won a lot more recently than Wenger's 11 years. So no.

It's not a justification- it's an observation

yes these spoilt millionaire brats are so deserving of the hard earned money of working class people....

Why the hell arent we spending 75 euro a month on sky sports? or paying 75 euro for what is in effect a glorified plastic bag with the team badge sewn on?? or pay £64 to get into a stadium to watch scutter??

Its like Eamon Gilmores 'put on the Green jersey' rant from a few years ago.

Arsenal are like one hit wonders. Their second 45 is ****ing useless.

He is not a has-been but I think he has taking arsenal as far as he can. I think it would be best for both parties to part ways before it gets messy and bitter which would be a shame for a man as well respected as wenger

How many leagues have they won in the last 10 years? Never mind European titles. Although I don't know who Benetix is.

I don't know what I laughed louder at. You throwing stuff at the wall, or telling your Mrs to take the clothes back.

I have a Lenovo Tab 3 Pro so I had the match "Projected" onto the wall....saves me from smashing TV's.

Gonna get me a nice pair of sensible walking brogs instead.

Unfortunately all too common in the big games, he should have been hooked anyway, give someone else a run, couldnt have been any more ineffective

He is a has-been. Arsenal will never win the league under him again.
He is too easy to play against. Never takes any criticism on himself. It's always someone else's fault.
A total has-been.

The fans had their chance to make a statement last year and they remained seated in their seats like sheep. If Wenger has any decency he'll walk away in the summer and cut himself off completely from the club to give the new man a chance.

On this game, City were dire, negative and had zero energy in the first half, they barely defended and if we were playing properly well we could have gone in with a 3-0 lead easily. Second half City actually decided to put some energy in, way more intensity and way less backwards passing and they tore us apart.

They backed the back to back FA Cup winning manager.
No manager ever has won it more than he.

The F.A. Cup lost any importance the year Man Utd decided not to play in it.
It's a very minor competition.
The league is where it's at.

Oh the FA cup ? A trophy that Wigan and Portsmouth even managed to win? In the 9 years up to 2014, Wenger didnt even win a single trophy.

Wenger's objective should have been to win the league after those cup wins. 2 further botched attempts after the many pathetic efforts beforehand.

This week alone --

Chelsea - 6 points.
City - 6 points.
United - 6 points.
Spurs - 6 points.
Liverpool - 3 points (play again tomorrow)
Arsenal - 0 points.

All hail Wenger and his braves.

and if he hadnt won the FA Cups, you would still back him regardless, instead of the one liners why not give a reasoned view of how he can cut it tactically against the best teams, at least posters would know where you are coming from. Saying I just know he is the best man for the job etc etc doesnt really cut it anymore

His record speaks for itself

I could show him splitting the Nile and others would want the amazon

I'm not going to change flawed opinions
