Agree 1,000% - Cheating comes to proving, it has (slightly) made this awful day a little bit better....nice to see the brumscum go down, just wish Blackpool had managed to stay up as well.GunnerTino wrote:Fuck it,I for one am glad Birmingham went down,

I watched most of the match on a stream and the only crowd pics they showed were some stupid woman with an I heart Eboue t shirt.

The season spiralled into chaos since the Carling Cup final, and it has been embarrassing, but I hope not everyone forgets that the we did have some good times along the way.
Let's hope lessons are learned for next season.
Can you remind me of those good times please?
Or are our aspirations based around beating Blackpool twice?
The emergence of Wilshere?
Look, I'm not saying we need to be sitting around proud of how it all finished, but it wasn't completely shit.
On that basis Holloway is happy with the season as they won a few games they wasn't expected to?
I agree beating Barcelona at home was a good result but should we see beating the other teams mentioned as times to remember?
Sorry but this season was a massive disappointment and the biggest disappoinment is we went backwards again ALTHOUGH IT WAS NO SURPRISE.

Disagree with that Spuddy, we've underachieved again this year even with the team we've got. How much better could this same group of players have done with….SPUDMASHER wrote:And although I agree with you and it pisses me off that we're clearly going backwards, I guess there is some truth in the fact that the three teams above us are on a different financial level to any other club. Spending what we do, we do well, but the problem is there is no reason for us to be so miserly!Percy Dalton wrote:"When you analyse the season you will see that fourth place against enormous financial doping is a good acheivement and when you only have desire, spirit and belief you will see we are winners and that..................blah, blah, blah"
…any kind of semi-competent defensive coaching?
…a manager with the slightest hint of tactical nous?
…a style of play that wasn't so fundamentally flawed in the first place?
…its' match-winners allowed to actually "play" instead of having virtually all spontaneity drilled out of them to fit the robotic zombie through-the-motions-football mould? A team with the creative talents of RVP, Nasri, Cesc, Arshavin, Jack etc should never be so predictable & easy to contain.
…a manager with the ability to keep them consistently motivated?
…a manager who made them work on improving the glaring individual weaknesses in their game - crossing (FB's), movement in the box (strikers) etc?
…a manager who recognised set-pieces are an important part of the game (attacking as well as defending)?
All of these issues could be addressed with the most basic management - the sort every top-level manager should be capable of as a bare minimum. Fix any 2 or 3 them & without any signings this exact same team/squad would have fared much better.
Finishing 12 points behind a good but not great United team isn't doing well. Likewise finishing behind a past-it, self-imploding Chavs & a City team that is/was still being put together & learning to gel etc. All we've done is finish ahead of an overrated scum & a shite Liverpool team.

Could hear "spend some fucking money" being chanted several times in the 2nd half, & getting louder each time.Chippy wrote:I watched most of the match on a stream and the only crowd pics they showed were some stupid woman with an I heart Eboue t shirt.

On the whlole it was a completly horrible season to be an Arsenal just because we got 3 or 4 great results does not change that. It is possibly the worst season in my lifetime we were in freefall since february and beating Barca or Chelsea does not in anyway. If we had run away with the league but yet got beat by Yanited and Chelsea 4-0 yDemun210 wrote:Beating Barcelona? Chelsea? Manchester Utd?

Seriously Demun, we've said that for the last few years and nothing has happened. What in the world gives you any confidence that this season Wenger will do what is required? He's already giving statements about not buying 50m players and the fact that he will buy if the right player is available at the right price!!Let's hope lessons are learned for next season.
I absolutely guarantee you he will sign two mediocre Frenchmen from clubs like L'Orient, who are one season wonders and cost under 12m each. We'll possibly go for the South American guy as well as he is on a free, another one season wonder!!
Arsene Wenger does not have a clue, I think that is so blatantly obvious it fucking hurts!!
