Without doubt we will beat WBA on Saturday they are in as bad form as us and their good start to the season is going down the shitter. After beating WBA convincingly all the sheep will be wanking off about how good we are and how Arsene is a miracle worker :oops:

It will be like a Carling Cup match with the amount of tourists celebrating throw-ins and not understanding the offside rule :lol:

The atmosphere will be so shitty and poisonous, why would anyone put themselves through 90 minutes of this bollocks.

Question from an outsider:
Any consequences for anybody if you would lose the second home game in a row?

Many supporters are pro Wenger still and even if we got relegated this season it would be everybodies fault except the messiah (you only have to read superfan highburyJD's posts) so we could lose the next 5 home games and still there would be one Arsene Wenger being sung at matches.

In other words no consequences Wenger is untouchable, the board couldnt give a fuck and the players arent good enough so booing after a loss is as far as it goes mate :oops:

This x's 10000000, the more deserved abuse that comes his the better I feel, unfortunately I won't be there Saturday as I'm taking my children to a Panto in Wimbledon... I could have easily have taken them to the Panto that is currently at The Arsenal !!

Its a vital game, not so much for the top 4 - the gap is not insomountable right now - but lose this, i think we could see things spiral badly.

Swale Gooner made a point at the weekend, Jenkinson obviously made an error - but the crowd was vicisous at that time, he didnt want to pass it backwards as he knew the abuse he would get. Now, as a professional footballer its not an excuse - but the crowd were not with the team at that point and although i fully maintain the best team won, i do agree confidence-wise, we are shot to bits and the negativity around the whole place contributed in small part to that second goal.

Everbody outside of the club wants us to fail, even some within - West Brom will be thriving on this.

If i was Wenger id be telling the team to be completely gung-ho from the outset, take the initiative, get the crowd going - spark some positivity - because if we play like we have the last few weeks we will lose this game and suddenty the season really does start to look bleak.

Win Saturday, Win Tuesday - suddenly things look a little brighter and maybe, we will have a team we can get behind again once they play to the level they can.

This isnt about Wenger, or even the actual players - I dont want to see my club become a laughing stock for people who are dying for us to fail - the manager WILL NOT change in the middle of the season, we CANNOT buy any players until January, the team has to earn our support back - but we too need to play a part.

He could help by dropping Gervinho tho :wink:

I can’t agree that the crowd are playing any part in what is going on here. When Jenkinson first got the ball he could and should have put it in the box so we could possibly have an attempt on goal, but he chose to go backwards. I’m not singling him out because that is the mentality of the team but on this occasion it was him that made a bad decision. He wanted to keep possession rather than take a chance on creating a scoring opportunity.

To say he is then scared of the consequence of playing backwards is both his own fault as it was his initial decision and also suggests he is not strong enough mentally (as you alluded to in your post) to play Premier League football. In that game alone, two or three times in the second half we tried to pass it out from the keeper and either lost it in a dangerous area or gave away a throw in near our own goal. I, like many others, are fed up with that sort of play as the players clearly aren’t good enough to make it work. If it keeps going wrong, don’t keep doing it!

I do agree that we should go gung ho from the start on Saturday, but I’d be amazed if we did, Wenger hasn’t exactly been willing to change our approach in recent years, regardless of results so I don’t see why he would suddenly do so now.
