Completely summed up his total lack of tactical acumen.

For 15 minutes between the 1st and 2nd goals we were all over the shop, the 2nd goal was so obviously coming but he just sat back and watched us cling on until they scored. And then when he was forced to make the substitution he just chucked anybody on - he took off our pace and brought on Podolski who was never going to hold the ball up and Rosicky who is a luxury. Sure enough, Podolski barely touched the ball and Rosicky gave it away every time he got it.

The players are far from exempt from criticism, but the flaws have been there for over half a decade now and the one constant is Wenger. Not to mention that the reason we are left with Monreal at CB and Captain Stupid at DM is because Wenger couldn't see what the rest of the world could in the summer and left us woefully short on depth and quality there.

And as for this 'mental spirit' bollocks, forgot chucking away a 3-goal lead - did anybody else see our body language at 3-3? Most teams would be busting a gut to try and get that winning goal, to avoid the embarrassment, to win the game. Our lot just shrugged their shoulders, hung their heads and hid. Nobody wanted the ball, they were waiting for the final whistle. It was the same on show in Brussels until we got the goal out of nowhere, then suddenly people were interested again. And again against Hull, people walking round, shoulders slumped but as soon as we pulled level suddenly everyone was lively.

Nail on head. Every word.

we were playing 6 banks of 1 instead of 2 banks of 4,and that clueless wanker just sits on his hands watching,Bouldy has to share some of the blame too.maybe he's just become a Wenger Yes man.

for 8 million quid a year we get this :



he had what 120million quid in the summer to spend on two DM's and a CB ?

[Kvltman]

Another 3 years after 2017?

typical cowardly wenger - sent Arteta (who should be receiving treatment rather than doing interviews...) out to talk to the BBC.

WHAT!? FFS Arteta couldn't handle the anderlecht forward line and mid-field how on earth is he meant to handle an interview that demands considered thought and opinions

[SteveO 35]

In Arsene we Trust.....for another 1000 times

[clockender1]

tets came off on 62 minutes when we were 2-0 up

Hey that's understandable after all that big nasty Jaqui Oatley might be waiting for him.

Utter contempt for the man - and we have a team that has as much balls as he has.

When he fucks up (regularly) it is someone else's fault, or the pitch or pluto in Uranus.

[OneBardGooner]

Alexis Sanchez must surely be wondering what the fuck he has landed himslef in and must be making plans to leave asap - and there's only ONE person to blame - WENGER!

[clockender1]

do FA coaching badges have an expiry date ? - any chance Arsene PLC's is out of date and they can ban him like Zidane for three months ?

[SteveO 35]

We're on our way....we're on our way
To the last sixteen...we're on our way
Who will we paste us?
We don't know
Who will paste us?
We don't care
All we know is its a big payday

When you see him on the bench tonight with a blanket over his legs, it really reinforces the opinion that he is too old and outdated - there isn't another manager in world football that would have covered himself in a blanket like that during a champs league game
