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.
Given the amount of money that suddenly appears to be available......am I the only one who wonders whether the 2-8 v United, which owed much to our own "injuries", tactics, team selection, substitutions etc, might have been exactly what our beloved Manager was hoping for.....if he was struggling to convince the board to spend big? Just a thought!
It was a game that we were always going to lose anyway - so to lose so heavily was probably the best thing that could have happened to us.....
