Re: THE WENGER THREAD
The only justification to Wenger dropping Lacazette for Liverpool and now City is that there must be something in his contract which means we owe money to Lyon if he starts in games vs top six.
Like why he's a;ways subbed aroud 65-70 min mark
Has to be, there's no logic to it.

Re: THE WENGER THREAD
Moving Lacazette to the wing after he scored was ludicrous and a throwback to the days of playing Bendtner out wide. Fucking lunacy.
Frankly it summed up our confused shape and tactical game. At times we had four or five players pressing high up the pitch, at others (like the first goal) we were standing off them 30 yards out. A left back and a midfielder playing centre half. No striker playing and then two chucked on without any change to the shape.
Still trying to figure out who was worse out of Sanchez and Ozil.

Re: THE WENGER THREAD
Man City 3-1 Arsenal
POSITIVES
* IT WASN'T RAPE ( under 4 goals scored against...not technically defined as rape)
* LACA SCORED AGAINST A TOP 6 TEAM! 1st goal 4 Arsenal , against TOP 6 opposition, in the 3 matches (so far...) out of 10 for the season. Gud 4 him!
* NO INJURIES...i think...( mental maybe...hopefully not!)
*THE GULF IN CLASS was the Referees fault and MAN CITY IS OWNED BY A MINT... etc!....so positive excuses in the plenty for Arsenal & their fans to cover over small cracks...small...
* LE COQ returned & did make more than 1 crucial interception, Detective style, like he used to, even though he was played out of position.
* Arsenal players STOOD UP AND WATCHED Mancity ping around the ball ( while staying in their 'Defensive' positions & formation like TOTEM POLES!!)
and watched City Have possession with no attempt to retrieve or intercept it..in the first half.....BUT..in the second half they were actually combative for the ball.....at.....TIMES!!!!
*Arsenal Fan TV & CHILL 4 the masses!!! (Bitter sweet 4 all true Arsenal fans)

Re: THE WENGER THREAD
Yes, that is it...I texted two Arsenal fans after the game yesterday saying that it is a sign of where Arsenal are that there is almost relief that it was not six or seven at City...The defeats don't hurt anymore and by the same token the victories don't delight anymore including the Cup Final last season..IW8Goalmachine wrote: ↑Mon Nov 06, 2017 12:41 am"Like many fans, I’ve long since progressed past the point of anger at these types of performances and results.Redarmy wrote: ↑Sun Nov 05, 2017 7:44 pmGood article......

Re: THE WENGER THREAD
To play a person who wants to leave for the very club your playing against is morally bankrupt and tactically wrong ,but that's Wenger ,it's all about him and it always will be .
The clubs decline is set to accelerate now ,out of the chumps league our expenditure immediately adjusted downward and will continue to go down once Ozil and Sanchez walk .
Santi as we feared will never play again so we will have lost 3 of our best players and wont spend the money to replace them .
By the time wenger leaves his legacy will be that drove the club into the dirt it will take eons to get the club back on the right track.

Re: THE WENGER THREAD
Season is going to plan, dropping off the pace in early November, dead cert defeats coming up followed by the desertion of so called top players without morals to match in January, to the opposition, be lucky to finish up in 6th....

Ozil was worse by a cunthair. At least Sanchez "put in a bit of effort".northbank123 wrote: ↑Sun Nov 05, 2017 9:59 pmMoving Lacazette to the wing after he scored was ludicrous and a throwback to the days of playing Bendtner out wide. Fucking lunacy.

Honestly though, both were shit and both look like they couldn't give a fuck either.
Re: THE WENGER THREAD
The bloke just makes the most baffling fucking decisions
Why did Lacazette not start? Why was Sanchez up top by himself for most of the game with no support? Why was Ozil playing on a flank when he should have been roaming like Silva in central midfield trying to create? Why was Coquelin at centre back?
These baffling decisions from the fraud have gone on for 12 years...he is the weirdest manager in terms of positional and tactical nous it's quite scary.
I can't even be bothered ranting. As long as Kroenke is here we all know this digusting regime will continue.
How the fuck we ended up with this American *word censored* I'll never know!!! Why could he have not bought another football club.
Thanks David Dein.
For all the good you did you should be fucking ashamed you sold in to a parasite like Kroenke.

Re: THE WENGER THREAD
Not that simple is it?, which one...
We are a dead club now unless the yank sells which he wont because he has his greedy eyes on streaming media revenues, I for one won't be subscribing but billions of Asian's probably will...
F*ck this game.

Re: THE WENGER THREAD
AW decides to go with 3 at the back and two wingbacks.
Decides he only needs 1 spare centre back and that it's a good idea to sell Ox and Gibbs, leaving us with NO spare wingbacks.
If only I'd been in football management for 30 years, I could understand the excellent logic behind those decisions.
