Arsenal Post Match Thread.

Awful. Good thing is that in the FA cup semi final it wont be over at 90 minutes if its still draw.

We dont deserve anything than a 3rd or 4th place finish in the PL this season. So many times we just dont want it enough. So many misplaced passes, not enough tempo, not enough pressing, awful defending, bad positioning, horrible touches, missing chances like there is no tomorrow.

My problem is even though we need some big signings in certain areas (defence, GK etc.) this is what is offered up by this seasons suad is not 100% to their ability imo. They could have done so much better. Pep just isnt getting the best out of them. Maybe only Sane, Silva, Fernandinho is performing at an acceptable level or above that troughout the season individually.

Mancini wasnt getting the best out of what he had, Pelle didnt do it and now Pep isnt doing it. Our answer always was more and more expensive signings and yet we arent any closer to the truth. Simply because that cant be the only anwser/solution and we signed so many underperforming flops as well for lots of money.
 
I was one of the ones calling for Yaya at half time - I think a lot of it with Yaya boils down to what he used to give us at his peak.

Fair play he's done a half decent job for us this season considering what happened to Gundogan and the rest of our midfield options being shit, but with that being said, he along with the likes of Clichy and Zaba are totally finished now.

Not only do we need a new defence, Pep is crying out for a central midfield that can play the way he wants. As for the front 3 - I think we'll always have firepower up there even though Sane and Sterling will have their off days.

The one thing that strikes me about this side is a distinct lack of power/leadership through the spine. KDB is a definite culprit of this and all in all he's had a very average season.
 
Bad tactics again, poor game had the lead twice, need a manager who can swallow his pride and change his philosophy to see a game out
 
Spot on we sound like scousers on here blaming something else all the time. Navas appealing for a penalty at the end sums it up.The knob failed to deliver a ball in and starts moaning about handball -pillock. If you are good enough you overcome things not whinge-

Lack of drive,hunger,intensity.killer instinct,devil.

Played at walking pace,like a meaningless end of season game.

Where's the Ginger Prince gone ?
 
Navas is bang average, easily one of the most frustrating players I have ever watched at City.

Mentality is seriously questionable if you ask me because we turn it one when we want to, I also think there are a lack of real leaders.

A lot of players will leave this summer.
 
Sad I know but I laughed at him towards the end. Sergio was working his bollocks off trying to get the ball, keep the ball and create something and he gives it to KDB who nonchantly just gives the ball away and jogs off. I'd have fucking chinned him if I was Sergio.
Pissed me off. Even on their second goal, he should've taken responsibility before the ball went out for a corner.
 
Fuck off with that shit. No idea why some of our fans seem to have this deluded belief that if we don't play at our absolute best, we shouldn't get fair refereeing. Winning the title is all about winning when you're not at your best and that's when one refereeing decision is likely to make the biggest impact. Today the referee has failed to give them 3 red cards and denied us a stonewall last minute penalty, he has robbed us, again. Every big game this is the balance of the refereeing and it's fucking infuriating

Spot fucking on!
 
Silva and KDB are over rated to fuck. Hazard/Willian or even Coutinho/Mane are better than them. Poor aguero yet again played as well as he could let down by the shite around him. We're a million miles away from where we should be.
 
How bad does Navas have to play for him to never be included again. I cannot stand watching him play. He offers nothing whatsoever.

More urgency needed 2nd half. Big chance wasted to put pressure on Chelsea. We should stuff these at Wembley.

Apart from putting two on a plate for Aguero you mean and being our best player in the second half ? Yeah, Navas was shit. And the rest of them were far shittier.
