fuck CB or defensive mid, Bartley should be a striker

1-1 own goal from Bartley.

Not as good as Jenkinson's.

So unfortunate for Bartley.

I would expect the defender to get his foot properly under the ball to clear. Defending was very suspect there.

Let's be fair. You're a total wanker.

Are you blaming the draw on Bartley.

Get your head out of Wenger's back-side and wake the fuck up. We are a fucking joke.

So was the fact that TH was just watched as he did a 3 point turn on the edge of our box.

Physically, we were a little short.

Absolutely NOTHING has been done since last season. We look half decent going forward, although we struggle to break teams down. We lack a proper poaching striker, and the defence is a complete waste of space...

Unfuckingbelievable. No pride on display from Arsenal at all. Bunch of primadonnas just jogging around waving to the fans, trying the odd backheel... FFS.

Henry was the only winner on the pitch. He took time from his actual professional season to come play a friendly and he clearly took it more seriously than any of the Arsenal players.

Meanwhile our same failings were evident. Piss poor defending, a toothless attack, and absolutely zero creativity from the midfield without Nasri or Cesc. It's going to be a long year at this rate.

Not blaming Bartley at all, just saying think he could have done better there. Possibly being a bit harsh on Bartley, but I think more often than not, the defender clears that.

Agree that something needs to change though....for the amount of attacking posession we have, the number of clear chances we actually make is stupidly low.

We might be getting somewhere Mr Demun.

Tippy tappy + piss poor defending = never win another trophy under Wenger.

Martin Keown becoming a total Wenger apologist. Thank you Robbie Savage for speaking the truth!
