No Excuses

That was absolute garbage

The 1st half was good (DAMN you Stockdale) but I can't be arced to talk about the 2nd half


Djidiot, Squillterrible MUST LEAVE BECAUSE THEY WILL NEVER BE PL STANDARD.
Walcott needs to be benched ASAP because that was terrible, OXo needs to start now


We need a F*******n FB (and not .com.coma s*** one like Wayne Bridge), we need a creative midfielder (Mario Goetze), we need a f******* forward (RvP can't do it all) and Henry would be nice

Teach Gevihno finishing lessons because he'd be fantastic if he could finish
AW needs to spend ASAP and hopefully this loss will be the kick in the arse he needs

WE CAN'T AFFORD TO SLIP UP AGAIN

 

I wish someone would take a big banner to the Emirates with the following words (or similar) to remind rthe strikers ( except RVP) what scoring a goal entails : " SHOOT!!! YER MORON!!!"

 

Gervinho cant shoot , just bottles it .

Walcott CAN shoot but thinks defenders are invisible and the ball will travel straight thru them ..

as Richard Keys would say "Stupid boy."

 

If we don't bring in a creative midfielder or a forward in january then i will be seriously worried about our chances of getting in the top 4, because spurs will pull away and we can't keep relying on liverpool and chelsea, fortunately they are both going through a dodgy spell as well but we really need to raise the standard of our performances because we go to swansea next and as they have shown that will be a tough match, then man utd come to the emirates.

 

Every time we 'have' to win - we bottle it.

Simple - where is the 'mental strength'?

 

WhyAlwaysMe?DEEEEEEEEENCH - I don't know if you are taking the mick with this thread or not.

Considering the number of times you have called people names for daring to criticise I don't know if this is meant to be a mickey take thread or not.

I'll take it as you being serious and say ... welcome to the world of the "realistic" Arsenal fan. Things finally came to a head for you yesterday, we've been bemoaning these things all season !!

 

I hope this isn't the start of the usual late season collapse - a bit early!

 

More likely a blip, we have had a long and tiring festive season. We'll know more after the upcoming fixtures against Swansea and Man U I feel.

 

I mentioned in an earlier post that the tiredness was no excuse. However in the second half yesterday, that was what we were. This is due to lack of squad depth I'm afraid.

 

I fear for us, I feel that if we don't get the players we need in this transfer window then we'll be scrapping with Liverpool for 5th place

 

These have always been my opinions and while I don't go to great lengths to voice them, I maintain these while being an eternal optimist

 

I think they'll draw and we are still only a point behind 4th

 

Probably in wengers tongue because he seems to talk about it alot and we fail to see it esp when we should keep a win till final whistle sounds

 

I wonder if Arsene's attempts to deflect attention from our poor game is in part a quiet admission that he didn't live up to his. He should have geared up the team to kill off the game early in the second half. Instead we were overrun by Fulham...

 

Agreed with you there.

 

I see the spuds werent too tired tho were they.

They were " up to it "

Now 6 points in front with STILL a game in hand , while wenger makes lame excuses they soldier on .

West brom are are about the same level of talent as fulham according to the table.

The difference this season is the spuds BEAT the mediocre teams , we lose to them .

Wengers super tactics again .

 

Well we beat WBA 3-0 at home... yet to play them away. Make of that what you will I guess.

 

Jayram, some perspective needed before the negaitivity I think, Tottenham still have to go to Everton, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City and us, there'll be opportunities for us to make up ground, whether we do or not is another matter but crying into your beer in early January is premature in my opinion

 

They've got far less experience of this kind of pressure, they also have to get through the transfer window without losing a gun or two and as we know with Chelsea struggling there could be some big cheques waved in front of a few Chairman.
Remember the gap between us and Villa a few years ago, they blew up and we made CL comfortably.
We may have let oursleves down once or twice recently but I still maintain we're nowhere near as bad as some in here would have us believe....

 

Have you not seen the games we have coming up ??? We can't keep a bloody clean sheet and only RVP can score goals, you think we should be optimistic about this ? Get real bloke.
