I can’t tell if we are playing poor because we are so nervous about conceding, or if Villarreal’s plan to stifle our attack is working.

either way I’m currently looking at this side and I think “these players don’t know how to play”.

for me that comes from the manager. Our style just doesn’t work.
 
Atm Arsenal do not deserve to win... playing at a snails pace and no urgency!!

Need to extract the digit!
 
This tie was lost in the first leg, with his kami kaze formation. Knowing fully well, we have not played well at home this season, he goes to villareal and tries to be too clever!
 
That was fkin woeful.

No energy, no urgency, no creativity, no passion.

We got exactly what we deserved from that, absolutely **** all.

We deserved nothing over both legs. We were outplayed in the first game and then today, offered absolutely nothing. No cohesion, no invention, no creativity or dynamism. We had THREE shots on target in both legs. Villarreal had seven today alone.

Dreadful style of play, dreadful results, players seem confused by his instructions, his tactics rarely make sense, his in-game management is appalling.
He's broken so many records for the wrong reasons - including another one tonight.

We've gone 10 home matches without scoring for the first time in our entire history.

Well done Mikel <applause>

Just get this guy out now honestly. Europa was the last chance of redemption for our woeful league form and he ****ed it.
 
Arteta OUT. He needs to be gone, tomorrow. Enough is enough. Sick and tired of this.
 
I supported and defended arteta all season, but the last two European games are the final straw.

I cannot defend him any more and now if he goes I will not be too upset......
