Arsenal Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours 2020/2021

Really p1ssed off this night.

An analysis from the fence of manager in/out

Partey was brilliant in moments, but had 2/3 moments when we are an inch away from conceding an easy chance with him. No support and him defending a back 4 alone? Xhaka injury was a big kick in the groin!

Saka, ESR, MO and a few others are exciting talents. But at their age/experience, you cannot expect to run a Euro semi final. Tried boyfully, but alas... A great training session for them against seasoned Euro professionals.

Thought Auba was really brilliant, despite the lack of service.

For me? Pepe was MOTM on our team. Thought he ran and ran and was so threatening and they double and treble teamed him, so the reaction from our players/manager should have been to utilise that.

Alas. We start again. You do know, the year before Liverpool made the big breakthrough...

More emphasis should have been made on our counter attacks I felt, but I can se what Arteta tried to do and he came close. Under previous managers we have been losing big. Now our losses are by very very fine margins.

Fantastic. I hope we 0-0 our way to avoiding relegation next season.

Unlucky Tayto you enjoy the bottom half of the league all going well..

Ps go on tiny villa real schooled your gunner sore ass tonight.
Great defence over both semi's

Maybe Stan will take the money now.
Whatever about tactics, Arteta couldn’t even fire them up. Has to go. Enough.

farna_boy

If playing Tierney tonight meant preventing Pepe from attacking, Tierney shouldn't have played.

That and it didn't look like there was any leadership on or off the pitch tonight.

Bobby Baccala

Can safely say this is the worst rendition of Arsenal I’ve ever seen.

Id rather the team lose 10-0 with passion and flair than lose 2-1 being limpless, with a whimper. There was no heart, no gumption, and our boat was without a rudder.. arrivederci.

The decision not to bring Elneny in for Xhaka tells you he was going to start at LB again, which was exactly how we lost the first game.

Fail to learn from your mistakes...

94/95 was pretty bad but at least we had highbury and a proper crest instead of the soluless dome and alixpress arsenal badge.

We are absolutely hopeless going forward, not just tonight but every fecking game. We have decent attacking players but they look absolutely clueless this season

See this I agree with. THIS is genuine criticism of Arteta.

Like I've said Arteta has enough problems without the need to blame him for stuff that isn't his fault

Wanna go back to the black and white days last time spurs won anything of note, nice try.

Dark dark times ahead lads.

Where has our club gone.

Where has the heart gone.

We are a failure on and off the pitch

It all stems from when kroenke took over

Please lend me your glasses. I think you're just trolling at this stage.

Worst rendition yet.

We're pure ****e and I don't have much hope

WoollyRedHat

Arteta doesn't think we were overrun in midfield.. so what happened then?!

BorneTobyWilde

Funny game, it was like an absolute refusal to attack no matter what the score, or time left. At no point did Arsenal even try to lose this game by trying to win this game.

Talking about qualifying for Europe through the league. That ship sailed mate.

I've said it before and I'll say it again; until a number of these players change (and it's a long list), nothing will change. Doesn't matter who's in charge.

Well, suddenly having a manager with no experience in a game against a manager with lots of experience suddenly looks a bit silly.

yup i agree.

You may get a nice run of games with a new manager for 6 months and then **** will hit the fan again. rinse and repeat

I don’t see any big names being available or even interested. Personally I’d like someone young but experienced. Difficult times.

Arsenal are not finished as a club, we will NEVER be finished as a club.

Bad times yes, never finished

I simply can't fathom why anyone has any faith in Arteta at this stage. No defined style of play, players never appear motivated for the matches.
I could understand if we weren't scoring but giving masterful defensive displays (or vice versa) but we don't even have that. Its just calamity after calamity with players making silly mistakes through sheer lack of focus

For me, the players look completely lost on the field and that is a reflection of him. He's never been in this position before as a manager so it's impossible to say how he'll dig us out of it apart from blind faith.
Ive seen nothing to suggest he's going to improve things next year. I liked Arteta as a player and he comes across well in interviews but he's way out of his dept. I blame the owners for that, they took a gamble and it misfired. If he were to get the boot in the morning, what other club in any league would headhunt him?
It's all just too meh for me. It's awful disappointing to have fcuk all to play for this early in the year.
I wouldn't mind but Villareal are very average and we made them look decent

Na bro we are finished.

Kroenke has destroyed our club.

Its been a slow car crash since Kroenke took over.

The only positive from this is the lack of European football may act as a catalyst for Kroenke to sell. Ah well at least we lasted until May until our season ended!

Wasnt Allegri in the mix when the board though Arteta was the man because he sat next to and tries to dress like Pep

Any person that thinks that, should probably follow a different club. Generations have made this club, even with the Kroenke gang, we are timeless.

Benitez would be the new Mr Onenil To De Arsenal

Get him in, he's be great.

I can't remember a young novice manager taking over at a club, having things go this badly, and then subsequently turning it around. Has that ever happened?

Solskjaer? Although things never got this bad for him.

Here in peace, not taking the p1ss. You mentioned Eddie Howe. If you're going to go down that avenue, what about Graham Potter? He tries to play a decent brand of football with a relatively limited squad at Brighton. If they'd had a half decent striker, they would be several places higher than they are.

Agree if you have been supporting them since Terry Neil and Don Howe we where a mid table team then

Last 20 years have brought success but when you pick a team as a kid you pick them for life.

Through thick and thin and ups and downs and this is a down which is hard

We will survive and get better when is anyone's guess but their like a second heart for me which on occasion gets broken but on other occasions gives me so much joy
