Bradford match thread

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.

I have had enough splinters in my arse so getting off the fence. I gave up my ST's, partly blaming myself for getting depressed about watching Wenger drag the team down with his deluded project.

Wenger had proved to me that he is not a top manager any more.

Time for a change. The deluded, arrogant, tortured self-harmer cannot hack it any more.

Wenger Out!

Victory through harmony. Wenger - if you had any shred of decency you would fall on your sword right now. Thank you for adding to our great history but enough is enough.

Gervinho, Giroud and Chamakh would not get in that Bradford first eleven. Their NO 9 won EVERYTHING in the air and their winger would get into our first team. They cost £25m in transfer fees and collectively earn nearly £200,000 a week.

Do you think Wenger or the players ever see a word of that? I doubt it. Would love to get the team together and show them these write ups. Look what they think of you, you spineless bunch of bottlers.

Mental strength my arse.

40 years following Arsenal and tonight is the pits, there is nothing to say anymore. There is no such thing as Arsenal F.C. anymore, that is so fucking heart breaking. How can a the team that started and finished tonight not be motivated to beat a 4th tier club? Why is the manager not motivated enough to motivate the team? Why is he manager.?..
I actually am more disappointed tonight than after the Champions League Final in '06. I shouldn't be because I have know for ages that the club, board , manager don't give a fuck but I convinced myself that tonight would be a break from the usual . FUCK OFF ARSENE , FUCK OFF..LEAVE THE :censored: IN BRADFORD..

i really don't blame the players Dan, talk to any manager and he'll tell you that most players are not that smart. they have to be organised and given a specific job to do, every move is practised every pass and run is rehearsed. every single one. what looks fluid is actually the sum of several parts of repetitive training - GG told me that personally and i've discussed it with Dave Webb, former brentford and chelsea boss too.

ever wonder why occasionally a player just passes into space and it goes out for a throw in or a corner yeah ?

its cos someone didn't make a run that was practised.

the problem with Wenger is that i don't believe he does give the players a job to do, or they don't understand their job.

either way, he can no longer manage at any level at all. zero.

Sad to see all this back biting, IMO Arsenal are Britain's top club, not new-money powered, it's like an institution. Hope everything turns round sooner rather than later........

But, if we kicked of again tomorrow, same line ups, I'd stick money on Bradford. The lack of desire, fight and determination was shocking, did they think they just had to turn up?

yes mate, they think they just have to turn up for many matches. Wenger's Arsenal are a mirror of himself - self important, no pride, myopic and no accountability. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

I think you're right. The players are better than what they're showing right now. Cazorla, Wilshere, Podolski, Vermaelen, Mertesacker, Chamberlain (furthermore Walcott, Arteta etc) are not bad players. OK, they're probably not title winners but they are certainly better than 4th Division Bradford. These players go to World Cups, European Championships, the Champions League and have probably a good couple of hundred international caps between them. They are just not managed at all. They're clearly told to "go out and play" and in Wenger-world this will apparently be enough to defeat the opposition as he seemingly believes they have some divine right to win if they hold onto the ball longer than the other team.

As you say, Wenger is finished as a top level manager. He was found out long ago and by implementing his unrealistic, idealistic methods with cheaper & inferior players he is killing us.
