    Bollocks. How often does a manager resign? Those above him can stop giving him contracts or sack him but don't. He'd be nuts to give up the position he has for nothing.

    I really don't know how any Arsenal fans can still want Wenger in charge anymore.

    Its soo repetitive, all the entertainment is gone.

    Well that was a sack of ****. Good effort to try and get back in it, but overall that first 30 mins of the 2nd half was unforgivable.

    That was not good by Arsenal they do not seem to have the players in depth to be a force.

    Arsenal opening day check-list:

    - pre-match injuries leaving the team patched up
    - defensively terrible goals conceded
    - opposing teams strikers made to look like gods
    - key players going off injured
    - fans booing

    When will this cycle end?!

    It is genuinely a mystery how Wenger has kept his job for this long. As has been said before, at any other top club, he would have been booted out the door by now. We have no excuses whatsoever to hide behind anymore.

    Absolutely ludicrous.

    I thought it would be a high scoring draw and went for 2-2 before the game. Crazy to end up 3-4 and badly exposed the problems that we have in the squad. It reminded me of some of those hammerings we took a couple of seasons ago, at one point in that game we looked like we were going to concede 5 or 6

    Every cloud has a silver lining. If this makes wenger splash the cash then it's a good result.

    Is it me or is cech past it ?

    Our offense was far too much for you (don't worry as other teams will suffer too)...

    Disappointed we only got 4 tbh.



    The serious question is your fans...

    Why did they all leave after 60mins. Pathetic tbh. Shameful. Embarrassing.


    Love you Piskie x

    We needed to spend before this game, the gaps in our squad are even more of an issue now.

    As for Cech, he's still a top keeper, but he does seem slow to get across at times ....

    Shameful walking out in my opinion. I can understand that fans were ****ed off, but you don't turn your back on the team in my book.

    Congrats on the result, crazy game.

    yeahh but the only problem no one is a mess at the back like Arsenal .. so highly doubted others will suffer the same
    one good result facing a team with no established CB and Loserpool fans getting cocky .. typical

    Your goals were good, but to be honest we folded like a sack of **** in the second half.

    Whew...literally no positives from that game. Two more players injured, shipped 4 goals, have no idea how we actually scored 3, but worse of all, we did not look fit. This is negligent managing and running of the club. Why are we never up for the first game of the season????? Why are we not ready?? I want to say spend some money but I don't even think that would solve it. The truth is I just don't believe in the team with this manager in charge.

    After a result as good as that they have the right to be cocky. So much better than your lucky result against relegation fodder.
