Arsenal 2017/18

[bluelol]

Just asked Siri what it makes of Arsenal's performance to day, I got the reply, no comment Blood!!!!!

 

[GunnerGer]

Don't worry. You won't be the only team that doesn't turn up at Anfield. And I know of at least one game where you won't play like that.

I don't mind getting beat from the better team, what I do hate is handing them it on a silver platter with sheer stupidity and terrible attitude. It's the manor of these defeats that hurt.

Your board should sign David Wagner from Huddersfield and let him build a team, he's done it with peanuts there and have them playing really well, 3 clean sheets

Arsenal poach a manager from Huddersfield?

I can't imagine the gooners would ever do that.

Why not, Wagner will be at Bayern or Dortmund in a few years

 

[blueinsa]

Never seen such a poor Arsenal side or performance as that today.

Smacked of a manager that has lost the dressing room completely.

I think he was being sarcastic. Arsenal's greatest ever manager, Herbert Chapman, was brought in from Huddersfield. Most of the successful HTFC squad too

Not surprised. Lacazette just joined, itching to play so he puts him on the bench and plays 2 players
who we all know want to leave, but have been told they are going nowhere. They've made their bed and all that.

 

[Danamy]

Out of order from Sky interviewing fans outside the ground straight after the game, they don't normally do that so the media witch-hunt has begun.

You know what annoys me most, is that this team hasn't just turned shite. This is the same team that beat Chelsea in a cup final, christ they only beat them a couple of weeks ago.

The problem as has been for a while at Arsenal, is attitude. We can talk about tactics, we can talk about team selection etc all day long, but if you don't turn up, like what happens with Arsenal on a number of occasions, you get run over.

Look at the goals, we've made this Liverpool team look like world beaters, because this is 1 of those days we don't even do the basics right.

What has Ozil done in any away game against a big rival the Wilshere couldn't do (apart from stay fit)? What is the point on having Sanchez and Ox when players like Ramsey play like that? Let them leave and build again, preferably with a manager that can see faults and fix them.

Ozil always struck me as a very fair weather player, needs a solid team around him and he has to have got out the right side of bed. For the cash he is on, i know you pay well so it will be a lot i'd have no time for him as an Arsenal fan.

 

[mccity]

I'm 100% sure on my own here, but I think Ozil is an extraordinarily scapegoated player.

Of course he's a luxury player and of course it's hampering the team, but is it really all down to him?
He's looked brilliant for Germany over the years, and he was great at Madrid too. He's also looked good whenever Arsenal play well. That tells me that it's a team problem.

Sure he's not putting in enough effort when Arsenal are up against the cosh, but is it his fault they're up against it? Is it his fault they have midfielders who can neither pass, press or defend? Is it his fault they have a collection of strikers who are less ruthless than what we're used to? Is it his fault he's playing in a team where on average 4 players are playing the wrong position? Is it his fault literally noone outside of Sanchez has any bottle?


Look I'm not defending him, but there's far too much evidence to suggest he's anything outside of a good player. And it's not that he's totally lazy either, he tends to cover the most distance out of all his teammates.

We as City fans should know the damage done by a media narrative and scapegoating. It's totally destroyed his confidence and it's only going to get worse for him. I'd go out on a limb and suggest that this kind of form is something we'll only ever see whilst he's an Arsenal player.

Ozil is a fraud of a player in my opinion mate, why wenger picks him in big games when knowing full well he will be none existent is just baffling, odd couple of good games a season is all you get from ozil

Troopz seems to be emotionally broken, fam.

Deliberate spelling mistake from an Arsenal fan?
I feel your pain that was pretty awful, 90% of that team need shooting.

 

[jimharri]

I like DT; there's no bullshit with him. He says it as he sees it. Similarly with Claude. Hard to take Ty seriously with those headphones; they're bigger than him, for fuck's sake. Troopz? Well; he's a bloody alien, isn't he? Some weird dialect.

 

[RandomJ]

Blud fam bruv guy was in fine form today.

 

[almir]

wish this was in english, looks fun

 

[Millwallawayveteran1988]

That bottom one is brilliant. He is right though. Everything he says is correct.

I used to like DT too Jim but he can get to fuck after that Sanchez video.

He covers distance but doesn't stick a tackle in, he's the most passive "world class" player I've seen. He's only there when it is easy going. Never shows up in the big games and he is meant to be a big time player, if he played for us and we were having one of those days, he'd be the one hiding the most, he rightfully deserves criticism. Arsene Wenger gets the most amount of stick anyway, him and the board at Arsenal have accepted Top 4 being their benchmark for achievement and it is coming to bite them in the arse.
