Its not the fact that we lost which is why I'm pissed off and sickened by yesterday. It's the fact that we didn't even have the guts to try. The worst United team in decades and we turned over and didn't even bite.
We had the players to factually take the piss at their ground yesterday but instead we let Van Gaal, a man who lost to a pub side founded in 1999, look tactically brilliant.
If we play well but lose then oh well but the fact we were abysmal is sickening.

It was the last ten minutes that killed me. They were taking the piss and we didn't really try. Even if we had got an equaliser it could have made a difference in the so called title chase, but no urgency.

Absolutely mate. We gave up with 10-15 to go. Although if we had scored you could bet everyone would have perked up again. This mental strength stuff is laughable, no other side in the league would have given up like we did. As Souness said its so obvious that we lack it that Wenger is probably banging on about it all the time to try and convince the team that we do.Chippy wrote:It was the last ten minutes that killed me.

Not ideal but we could even have just pumped the ball forward at the end - not normally profitable but none of their defenders won a single header and Giroud would have beaten them every time. We didn't even bother. Disgusting.
I was so ashamed of the team yesterday - at basically every other game I've ever been to the fans have still gotten right behind the team until the end and plenty of people will find positives or blame anyone and everyone (eg the ref) but not yesterday - everyone could see how dire we were and how little effort we were putting in.

Sky interviewed 5 manure "fans" outside their shithole ground today - 1 was a Londoner, I was a jock, 2 were from Dublin (knackers of course ) and there was the token 1 manc

I think most of the support there on Sunday thought the same. Where I was standing everyone had given up, plenty of "Fuck off Wenger shouts" and no one said anything in support of him.
As you say, 15 mins left and United were taking the piss out of us. No effort or urgency and its so disheartening. The one constant is the manager and until he goes................................

Can't believe how we are 3rd. Just shows how bad the rest are this year.

Apologies mate, not here on a wind up.Chippy wrote:We are very tolerant here mate, but if you just come to wum, you are gone.Derek Acorah wrote:CloakedGooner wrote:We'll beat this mob 2-0. The deciding away games are scum away and city away!!
I thought you lot would spank us on Sunday to be honest. Horrified that we won with the kids.
It's all on Wenger IMO. If you turned up with Klopp or even Pardew as manager on Sunday, with your 11 v our makeshift 11, it would have been an Arsenal win.

I'm just waiting for the customary "arsene wenger we want you to stay" chants from opposition fans IF we are losing at the shithole on saturday

Most supporters look at us Arsenal fans and think we are just spoilt ungrateful bastards.
You have had a couple of bad seasons to realise how tough 11 seasons of this same shit must be
