    Before the season started, all the media and gooners were tipping them to be the favourites to win the league this season. Defeat after defeat, their team in tatters, and the arsenal board in meltdown yet again 11 years running, we ask ourselves, were did it all go wrong?

    Also if I were a united fan id be more concerned with your own team who are just as far behind city even though you spent **** loads of money.

    And we have still won actual trophies in the last 2 years unlike your **** team who's intent is to only break transfer records on flops. For arsenal our problem is we dont spend enough. You ****ers have spent everything u have to revive and u still suck. If we were spending as much as u and we still sucked then that would be really depressing

    Which Gooners in particular were tipping us as the favourites to win the title? Any Arsenal fan with any sort of sense could see that we could that our chances to win another title with Wenger in charge are extremely slim.

    I'm no fan of net spend but seeing as everyone else swears by it, its time someone corrected the worlds many, many ******s...

    We've spent £128million since Fergie left, in everyone else's eyes....

    Plus we are closer to city, way closer... <whistle>

    We've also won 'actual trophies' by your logic in two years. Difference is, we don't consider part of our table set to be an actual trophy so don't brag about winning it.

    Don't shoot the messenger mate. You were tipped to be title contenders. Just answer the question and move on <ok>

    It's simple, we didn't make the signings.

    So what excuses your continued mediocrity? With all the money you spent? Where is that great 'revival'?

  15. At what point in this season will the "dream be over," Lee?

    Do you think the dream can last until the New Year?

    We have won 2 fa cups, and bumped you off the list along the way as the team with the most fa cup wins.

    LVG has shown us all though, what a football genius he has been against PSV and the other league game you lost, may he continue showing us his great MY PHILOSHOPHY

    We got third last year, not 4th. So it was actually 4th, then 3rd, thank you very much, oh and an FA Cup.

    Congrats, you spent 300 million to get 4th spot, what a magnificent achievement, if you wanted that, you could have just taken Wenger and he'd get you 4th by spending 15 million only.

    Keep clinging to your hopes of your revival, lol, makes it all the more amusing as the season progresses and you're still ****.
