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.

To be fair, the tossers at RedCafe (place is full if Irish students) have had a Lets Laugh At Arsenal thread for about 8 years now. Says everything you need to know about Wenger's Arsenal.
1 cup in 10 years. Not good enough - I feel for you lot, you've got one stubborn bugger in charge.
We're entitled to be shit after dominating English football for 20+ years. It's someone else's turn to have success now.
Hey leave the Irish out of this buddy - we are the bedrock of English society

If there is a team worth laughing at it would be us if it weren't so depressing.
ditto
It was fun while it lasted but it has served it's time. Anyone looking in from the outside would be amazed /amused to see this on an Arsenal forum now.
Here's the mad thing though; we will finish above Manure. Yeah, I know! Mental.
But true.
Thay are THAT bad, they will lose many more games to relegation fodder and top 6 teams this season. There are too many managers that can out think VanButthead in the PL. Wenger just isn't one of them. Player for player we are better than Manure and we should have destroyed them on Saturday. Our problem is tactics, defensive naiivity, and weak spineless players - directed by a past-it manager. We have a mental block with Manure, have had since the 8-2, but we will beat enough of the shit teams with our tippy tappy to get that be-all 4th place slot. Again.
Mark my words. We'll finish 4th. Manure will slot in 5th or 6th. Job done for Arsene. The Board happy. Arsene should step easily up to £9million a year for next year I'd imagine.
We'll get 4th, you lot 3rd. Van Gaal has us in 4th when we've had 39 injuries and not being convincing - we're improving slowly and have a guy who can change things depending on the opposition. He's actually making changes at the club, behind the scenes as well. Wenger won't do that - he's been found out big time - tippy tappy only works in the Prem League if you've got a solid spine (Adams, Keown etc). 4th for United, 3rd for Arsenal and you'll be stuck with Wenger for another few years. You'll finish above us because I still think you have a better defence than us when both teams have every defender fit. I think.
Sad thing is, every footy fan and their dog can see that Wenger shouldn't be Arsenal manager anymore - but like I've said before, he's bigger than the club these days.
1. Chelsea
2. Man City
3. Arsenal
4. Man Utd
5. Everton
6. Southampton
7. Spurs
8. Liverpool
united might finish above us, but they are still buggered financially if they don't finish fourth - whereas we can finish 7th and no biggee and if wenger goes, then thats just a bonus.
don't forget, we are just two home defeats away from a decent manager - with our squad we could go onto to challenge city for second.
i think there's plenty of comedy to come from United for us and like i said before, i feel for their old school fans but like us they are outnumbered 10:1 by the plastics in our offices, colleges, pubs etc
