Why is it wenger cannot see what we see? he has had a blank canvas for so long and has filled it with the same wanna-be-beautiful but utter shite aka wengerball.Does anyone remember when we played counter attack? we were really good at it now I look at the 1st team in despair knowing i'm going to see the same synchronised peice of shit that's never going to win us anything. I hope we get Barca in the cl so they give us a stuffing.
I can't agree with the comment about Song. Clichy has made two mistakes that have cost both goals. Song is at least looking like he wants to give it a go, the problem is he keeps getting caught positionally.
Does anyone think that the players crossing all the time, is their message to Wenger that they need a striker?
Mate - have a look at what you've just written. Song's entire role in this team is to provide defensive cover for the back four but today he's spent 44 minutes bombing forward or totally losing the man he's supposed to be marking.
I don't wanna pick on Alex Song for the sake of it as others are just as naive (Nasri, Walcott, Clichy) but our entire set up is wrong, wrong, wrong from back to front and side to side.
It is painful to watch this Arsenal team - they look once again like small boys playing against grown men.
It's almost impossible to believe that Arsene assembled such a great team as the Invincibles

In both games we have to attack the best two teams in the country with a bunch of midgets.
Not good enough.
Somebody at Arsenal should be held accountable with their job over this episode. You cannot bleat smugly about prudent financial management & financial doping while the teams you implicitly attack with those comments batter you time and time again on the pitch, all because you refuse to buy ONE player that you URGENTLY require with all the time and money you need.
Indeed. But I wouldn't put any hope on the penny - or the £35 million - will drop. Not with this Manager.
