What a perfect day.
Tell you what mate, if you were waiting for AA to do something, I fear you are probably still waiting (the lazy git, total waste of space. Had enough of flashes of brilliance, I want a player with a heart)

PS Hope you got home safe
Thats quality mate ! :lol:

The bloke who turned up was slightly taller than the real AA and much better at his job than our lazy little Russian !

that performance is up there with walsall, York and bloody Wrexham , Ipswich who lost 7-0 , who have lost so many recent games , what a shocker. Bendtner , Arshavin , Denilson are a disgrace.
Last 3 games and no goals on open play !

You don;t need a fucking degree in economics Mr. Wenger

Denilson - £6mill
Bentner - £6mill
Eboue - £3mill

= £15 million of excess waste that can be sold


A new Centre back, experienced and ready to play in the prem (hugely required) = £15 million or less.

HOW FUCKING HARD IS IT??!!

We can rest players against Barca and play our reserves because theyare goin to fucking stuff us either way. We might as well accept that due to 5 years lack of spending we are no longer a world class club and should be grateful for the opportunity to win any trophy and just play the first team in the Carling Cup and FA cup!

SPEND OUR FUCKING MONEY MR. WENGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the sad thing is last night only Nasri was dropped
RVP isn't match fit
thre's no diff between Fab and Chesnay or Gibbs and Clichy
Song came on anyway
Eboue is worse than Sagna but he was suspended anyway

Got in too late last night to post my thoughts. Most of this has probably already been mentioned but oh well...

I thought Braga away would be the worst performance i'd have the misfortune of witnessing this season. That was positively scintillating compared to last night. What a load of shit. Outplayed in every department by bottom of the Championship Ipswich fucking Town. :banghead:

The only logical conclusion I can draw is that unsurprisingly, our bunch of over pampered babies are motivated only by money (and perhaps a nice cosy night in talking bollocks on twitter). Lets take a look at the list of things that failed to get this lot fired up;

- Themselves. No self-motivation at all.
- Wenger. No surprise there.
- The prospect of a cup final. We didn't look at all like a team desperate to win some silverware.
- The Arsenal fans.
- The taunts from the away fans. (Can we play you every week/Are you Norwich in disguise)

Ipswich were hungrier & showed a million times more heart than us. Fighting for every ball, pressing & closing us down. And as for us? Hopeless. Arsenal play pretty football? Don't make me laugh. Maybe once a month we might create a nice goalscoring move & everyone will swoon. The rest of the time is fucking cluelessly abysmal.

Our game is played at a crawl. There's no speed or penetration. Nobody seems to know what to do with the ball & just ends up letting someone else take responsibility.

It's almost like Arshavin or someone will get the ball, think to themselves "Errrmmm.... OK, lets try this" *hopeful lob in the vague direction of the forwards, easily cleared by opposing defenders*. "OK, that didn't work, here you have a go instead..." *sideways pass to Denilson*. Repeat ad infinitum.

I won't give individual player evaluations because they were all pretty much the same; useless. I've seen better football played by pub teams on Hackney Marshes.

I've never felt so disconnectd & disinterested in such a large portion of our team. What I saw last night wasn't the Arsenal I grew up with. It was a bunch of sub standard wannabes running around the field after having had their egos massaged to believe their own hype by a mad frenchman.

Very sad.

I said to my mate "how is that not firing them up?!". If i was on that Arsenal team that would have embarassed & riled me into stepping things up a few gears. Not this Arsenal side though :banghead: :banghead:

Winds me right up just thinking about it. I woulda played for free & shown 100 times the heart & commitment those wankers did last night.

We all would have mate. Can you imagine Tony Adams hearing that and not bothering?

Was Chamakh not showing enough commitment emptying his boots of stones and tying his laces for 10 mins while we were on the attack? I would played with bare fucking feet!

Also, one final point...

Why are we not letting the team/Wenger know that this isn't good enough? I heard a few muffled boos at FT, but it seems a little clap from Theo from the centre circle & all is fine :?

I propose something like this... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Frw65fWzckI Panathinaikos fans chasing their players off the pitch after losing to a newly promoted side :lol: OK, maybe not. But surely the team & Arsene need to know that wasn't acceptable?

Cue comments of me being anti-Arsenal & that I should fuck off to Chelsea...

I cannot for the life of me understand how wenger hasnt been pulled up over his comment about the players playing something like 90 games in the last month :o How many of the players actually played in all 9 games ? Think about the wholesale changes we made at wigan, think about the changes we made last saturday v dirty leeds and then think about the changes we made last night and I think you would be hard pressed to find even 1 player that played all those games (cant be arsed to check it out tbh :oops: ).

Am totally fed up with the bullshit excuses this *word censored* keeps spewing out :evil: :oops:
