Good solid performance and 3 points closer to the team above us COYG :barscarf:
Maybe because that was in a competition we had a realistic chance of winning. Yesterday was your run of the mill VT win, when there is zero pressure. I can't speak for anyone else, but I felt massively indifferent to yesterday's game. It was the perfect con job, perform like world beaters when it doesn't matter, but crumble under any pressure.

3-0 to The Arsenal. Whoopee.
Wow. What a surprise. Pressure is off? Out of everything? Need a few wins to get that 4th place spot? Yep - suddenly we are brilliant again.

:whee:

Why could we not blow Watford away like this when it mattered? :rubchin:

For all Wenger's horseshit about mental strength, this is probably the most gutless, mentally weak, Arsenal team of his reign, maybe only surpassed by the spineless shite between 09-12 that included (at various stages) wasters like Alex Mong, Bendtner, Flappy, Lazy Arshavings, JET, Djourou, Vela and Legohead Denilson. :oops: :roll:

Same old Arsenal....typical bully boys... Where was this performance in the Cup game ? Also the lucky Wenger finds his best starting line up by accident but will probably take credit for it.

And the Emperor still wears no clothes.

Totally meaningless demolition of a safe, mid-table team with one eye on the cup they put us out of. It’s funny how when the pressure drops we roll over a ‘minnow’ in true flat-track bully style; but I do wish that, for once, we could play with verve and style when it actually mattered.

On the positive side; it was nice to see Sanchez actually looking like a professional footballer again, Iwobi continues to impress and I was absolutely delighted that Feo got the goal his recent contributions have warranted. :lol:
