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.
how come whenever we are hanging on to a lead in the final few minutes we get battered and cant get out our 6 yard box. otherway round we never do the same....
I remember the 08/09 season when we lost 5 games, conceded 37 goals & Wenger declared it a disaster, citing our poor defence as the reason we didn't win the league.
Well here we are, three years later in the first weekend of October & we've lost 4 & conceded 16. Still, as that fabulous new crest tells us, "Forward"
After a crucial summer this is what it now comes down to -
a league 1 right back
a midfielder playing centre back
2 gormless useless *word censored* on the wing (before they subbed)
a german centre back playing centre forward
yep apart from song's fucking awful pass straight to their keeper we havne't had a single shot in time added on. or even created a chance. spurs are "hanging on" and look like scoring every time they get the ball
