We dominated and should have scored 10.

I know people don't like Wenger, but how can anyone watch that game and think we were lucky. We played well; the missing ingredient was putting it in the net, but that was shoddy finishing not chance creation.

And Stoke? did they do anything all game?

Well deserved win regardless of what people think of Wenger.

And if Wenger had bought a decent striker we WOULD have scored 10. But now that Giroud & Walcott have both scored the old Know it all has been vindicated. That they missed about 10 chances will be airily dismissed by the old fart.

A win is a win is three points regardless of the nature of it but you just cant escape the feeling that Wenger, by selling us short once again has cost us another golden opportunity for this season with Chelsea all over the shop, Spurs as comical as ever, Liverpool inconsistent and United yet to prove themselves under Van Gaal.

We all know (except AW) that our "strikers" are not very good. Wasted lots of chances, but they did score. I am so much more concerned with Ramsey getting an automatic starting spot in this team when he has done nothing to deserve it. He is seriously bad. Ox is so much better that fucking Hellen Keller could see it.

Well done Cazorla, Monreal, Bellerin and Ozil.

Apparently I owe Wenger an apology because today proves how right he was not to improve our striking options and to give Theo and Giroud big pay rises........

OK then - sorry Arsene. :oops:

Heard Walcott and Giroud missed at least 3 easy chances between them.

Sure it won't cost us over the season though...

Same guy also said that Wenger knew that Welbecks injury was long term but didn't announce it before the end of the transfer window because this info it would have put the prices up of any prospective strikers we were in the market for. :roll: (Sush a nonsense comment on so many levels)
He also said there was no point in spending the money to strengthen our strik-force "just for the sake of it" and it was "all right" by him if Wenger was paid 8mill p/a to only finish in the top four.

Oh yea and Merse is a "moron" for suggesting Wenger was cheating us.

Well deserved win regardless of what people think of Wenger.
Let me explain then:

We had 68% Possession
With 29 attempts 12 On Goal
We seriously dropped our pace and directness in the 2nd half and the Orcscum were shyte (except for their keeper) began to threaten in the last 15 minutes - whilst Clueless sat on his hands - He made the subs too late - he should have yanked Rambo off - who was not playing well and brought on The OX who has been playing very well.

Yes in the first half we totally dominated - but only scored Once. Then the Orcscum started getting back in the game and almost scored twice/three times - something we have all witnessed in the past few seasons we dominate score a goal but let the opposition back into the game - so we all end up chewing our nails because wenger is clueless when it comes to tactics and making the right substitutions - yes, he brought Giroud on but how many times have we all seen him miss absolute sitters....

If wenger had done what any other sane manager would have done and spent some of the £200 million of a very decent striker - the game would proabably have been put to bed by half-time.

So when I say lucky - I mean that with us missing so many chances and the Orcs nearly equalising - Wenger got yet another (lucky) get out of Gaol card - We DID deserve the win - But thanks (yet again) to Clueless we could have blown it. That is why I think he got 'Lucky'.

Has anyone else noticed but during the last 8 months or so whenever anyone asks Wenger a question that even slightly hints at questioning him and his way of managing - his immediate reply always begins with the word "Look" - John Pearce (sp?) on 5Live's post match interview used the term 'Wasteful' when describing Arsenal's strikers today...and you coud see and hear the heckles rise on wenger...


He really is a despot.

I so wish he would fuckoff.
