Southampton away

I certainly didn't see any as our entire team hid, showed no urgency and walked around when we were 2-0 down.


Last Monday an nfl team surprised most people when they decided to stick with their head coach rather than sack him and they did so on the basis that it appeared that the players were still 100% behind their manager and were fighting for him - contrast that to our players who talk the talk about supporting le cock, but the efforts and performances during the games paints a totally different picture
yeah when we nearly went 3 down BFG just turned and gave a look as though 'what was I meant to do'? other players giving diabolical passes, and general defending which was embarrassing even at Championship level

I don't think it's the case that they're not behind him - in fact I genuinely believe that most of them are defensive of him (and indeed most of them owe him a tremendous debt of gratitude for being able to carve out a career and earn money that they didn't deserve). I think it's entirely a case of us having no leadership, no bottle, no ideas and generally being too pampered and protected. A new manager would get far more out of the players but I don't think that's because they've lost faith in Wenger.

Expect some fall out from this result, right through the club.
forget the individual errors and a few poor performances, the team as a unit are not playing for Clueless anymore, the ambitious players are most likely showing open dissent to the management.
Today was a watershed moment.

Pods obviously has the right idea - Get out whilst you can...before being part of a Huge Embarrassment and before your career is stained forever.

Koeman after being interviewed on ssn has just said that "after going two goals up, we decided to shut the game down"......can you ever see our tactical genius doing that when we go two goals ahead ? :lol: :lol:

If only- there will be post match comments about the 'non sending off', players returning from injuries, the only team to have picked up six points in 2 games prior to today etc etc

This man rides out every storm - this is just a regulation Arsene defeat - no worse than that at Stoke or some of the mullerings that we got last season. Rescue 4th and he'll be Stan's hero once more

not anymore - don't know what's gone wrong but don't believe we can do this with 'belief' and/or skill

Anyone see the interview with le cock on ssn a few minutes ago ? That grinning smirking prick did not look like a man that was embarrassed by that shambles :roll:

Would not be surprised if that supporter spent more time in the technical area than Clueless. obviously I am not including his mandatory childish rants to the 4th official.
