Ddin't bother yesterday but watched a recording of the match this morning. Amazing how up his arse all of the Sky team were. The presenter at the end saying 'that should silence the critics'.
![]() Yeah of course it will - another appalling home performance to scrape a 1-0 win against a dogshit team. I think my interest in football will be totally ruined before we ever get rid of the old buzzard. |

Am sick and tired hearing our manager going on about he's given 19 years to Arsenal FC. As if he's been hard done by. I never asked him to double up as an accountant or work more than 8 hours a day. His choice. He's never said how good Arsenal have been for him. It's all about him and what he's given to the club.
The fact is the club have regressed this season. He can dress it up anyway he likes but it's a fact. Yes let him have one more season but I will be very glad when he finally leaves. |

Finishing fourth and the Euros give him the excuse not to make transfers early.......so bloody predictable.
If that donkey Giroud is still leading the line come September and he hasn't signed a proper striker I will probably go mental. And Dear Leader says he wants to make the fans happy? Spent some bloody money, sort out your ****ing tactics or just leave pronto.

I know Utd, City, Chelsea and others have faltered this year, but we have been "consistent" in making the same mistakes for years even though we were always in the Top 4. Maybe I'd appreciate this more looking back. But things are stale, time for change imo. We keep doing the same silly mistakes over and over.
Our best chance to make history in our own way, and we ****ed it up

Uh oh, Arsenal could finish third!
A point at the Eithad would probably secure automatic CL football, but knowing Arsene defeat is better. Losing will consolidate fourth, given Arsenal's inferior GD.

Spot on. It's sickening watching Leicester of all teams so focused with each player knowing what they are doing and buying into it unlike our lot.
I really hope next season is his last. The media need to start asking the question will next season be his last. Also Fergie knew when to bow out. |

They are hopeless today which probably means we will lose to them next week.

The minimum priority from the shareholders seems to be champions league & he has delivered that year in year out. The only person I can think of in a similar situation was Alax Ferguson a decade ago when Chelsea had their run. The difference is Fergie is only loyal to a point unlike Wenger.
Also Fergie knew when to bow out. |

I can't even get too worked up about Giroud starting, Ramsey starting, Ozil having declined to nothing, Iwobi coming off, Welbeck not starting or Campbell being denied a place in the squad by Walcott. Even his substitutions don't irritate me any more.
None of it really matters. Whether he does all that or he doesn't, the chances are that we will still finish fourth and get knocked out of the Champions League as soon as we get into the knock-out stages and meet a team that can kick a ball. This is what the club has turned into. For 91 other clubs, things like players form, team selections, or matches against sides a place above or below you in the league are crucial factors they dictate your season but they don't really count for anything here, at the moment. |

Supporters need to lower their expectations and then they won't be disappointed. We are a top four team - no more, no less. We are not a Championship or Champions' League winning team.
Once you start with those expectations, you won't be disappointed by the end of the season. It's only when you start to believe we can win the League or compete in the knock-out stages of the Champions' League that the disappointment starts kicking in. Everybody feel better now? |

Maybe if they really want us to just settle for Le Virtual Trophy they ought to stop charging fans for some of the most expensive seats in world football. |

Its not about winning the title but seeing progress and a clear progression with the team. That's where the frustration lies.

Not really. I don't think any sane Arsenal fan, for one moment really believed we would win the league, let alone the CL. But maybe if the hadn't promised us we'd be competing with Europe's elite when we moved into the Emirates, fans expectations wouldn't have been so high. It's always been jam tomorrow.
