As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

Look...keep ya heads up you lovely Gooners.
We will be there till the end.
stick yer haed back in the sand ****'y and while you there, tell wenger to fucking sort it out.
We were not unlucky. man u got players in the box when potentially the ball goes there - hence Park (as fucking usual) scores against us.
they also fought for the ball, and showed tenacity - something we haven;t got the first fucking clue about. It's called building a team, and having balance - something wenger has totally lost sight of.
There's another balance that matters more at Arsenal now doncha know...

Yeah, I know.....probably 3 years!
We all know how long it can and will go on - and maybe if we let the people in charge of that know how we feel maybe something might happen - but again until those people actaully want things to change it wouldn't matter anyway. Pretending otherwise is not going to make it better.
The thing that summed it up for me was in the last 5/10 minutes, if we had a throw in or free kick, nobody had any urgency in taking it, nobody showed to get a quick re-start, nobody pressed, nobody pushed up..........................

Arshavin had a good opening 25 minutes and was shite after that until subbed with 15-20mins to go
Nasri showed maybe 5mins of football in 90+mins on the pitch
Rosicky total shite
Song worse that total shite
sagna and clichy see song
But yet here we all are picking out arshavin yet again as the cause of all our woe's
because let's face it augie, he got so much of the ball, and thus his wastefulness is more in evidence. I am in the pro-Arshavin camp, but they guy has got to give more.

we did nothing the whole game and didn't threaten them at all. Their back four had our attack in their pocket, let's face it as long as wenger continues to hold up bthe purse strings this is gonna be a regular thing at home and away to the likes of united and chelsea, play ok with some pretty easy on the eye stuff but when it comes to the crunch it's once again a case of close but no cigar. Arsene, come january please get the cheque book out otherwise we won't win anything with this current side except the carling cup and even that is not a guarantee!

Yep, because he should be one of our best players but it seems we can't rely on him to win games for us like nasri, cesc and van persie (eventually) anymore.

Good luck trying to get that message across in the ground. The stasi will have you out by the ear & your membership card blocked.
tbf, we looked a bit better in the second half. Manure played with 10 men behind the ball and hoofed it up to Granny-shagger all of the second half. Very anti-football from a top 4 side.
That said, AW needs to figure out a plan B 'cos any team that wants to beat us, just have to congest the midfield, force us wide and have our players try and cross a ball. Like that's ever gonna happen.
Also, Howard Webb is a crunt and his linesmen weren't much better tonight. I wouldn't have expected anything less at Old Shatford. and if Park tried to score that goal again, he'll miss 99 times out of a 100
