Just the man for a physical examination
Not the hardest of pre-match predictions.

Utterly cock as usual - still if you'd be given a 5 year deal when you only had one PL goal to your name what's there to aim for ?

This guy is as inept as anyone I've seen in the shirt. A pathetic, weakling of a 'man' and a symbol of the so called wonderful youth system
Starting to remind me of one Rui Fonte, too physically weak for the prem.

No at all surprised. Knew we would put in another abject performance. Nothing has changed in 2 weeks whatsoever. More inept defending yet again. The inability to make the opposition keeper work. I really am starting to lose interest at all. Don't even enjoy watching us play anymore. :oops: :roll:

Flappy comes up short in more ways than one.

Shortest player in the six yard box.

He needs to put lifts in his boots.

I have had enough of this now. i was one of the arsene knows brigade but now he is ruining the club. How can he say flappy wasnt at fualt for the two goal, blackburn are hardly going to make it easy for him are they?! its just excuse after excuse after excuse. its never the players fault its always the aint football brigades fault. to physical blah blah blah blah blah, im sick of it. Im not sure i even want to give him the summer to sort out the mess, coz this wenger wont fix anything. The only reason he is saying we will buy now is for ppl to renew their season tickets, come aug 31st when the window closes we will have signed no one of any great quality, and will still be playing with the mugs of diaby, flappy, almunia, tweety, denilson ect. im sick of it.

WENGER SORT IT OUT OR FUCK OFF! STOP RUINING OUR CLUB
Well absolutely - the post match interviews are becoming a farce aren't they. He should do what Sir Rednose does and send someone else out to speak in the face of defeat if he can't come out with some decent, honest analysis.

I've watched a re-run of their second goal several times. Fabianski is not touched by one of their players, so what's his point about the goals being "not regular".

I'm no Craig Burley fan but I think he summed up what many of us feel in one comment

"I'm sorry but if Arsene Wenger thinks that he doesn't need a GK to challenge Man United and Chelsea then he is in denial"

Fat Sam goes on to confirm that they knew Fabianski was weak and targetted him.....and what does Wenger come up with....oh yeah, lets blame the ref and the fact it was a "poor football match". Fucking right it was poor and do you know what Arsene - as much of it was down to us. What football there was in the 2nd half was Blackburn's and we did not have one player on the field who showed the craft of David Dunn. So get off the moral high horse, actually watch the game again, act like a man and do what most managers do i.e. detailed preparation and start targetting the weakness of others

Didnt say it was great mate, just think the reaction vented is a bit OTT. YYep it was a fkn loss to fat sam but im really praying that this old bat wenmger sees these players are shite and brings some quality in - if there is any quality that is?

I agree completely and suggested this a couple of weeks ago (only to be met with the usual horror and disgust from the AKB and "fuck off to support Chelsea" type retorts).

The only guilt I would feel would be not showing the support to Vermaelen, Cesc, RvP and perhaps Gallas who over the course of the season have done little for us to be angry about. As for the rest - I'm not quite sure what I would be standing there applauding

What troubled me today, and has troubled me for a bit, is not so much the actual individual players.

We have not had the big bucks to get a team of top level players, we all know some of them are below par, and that we had a lot of injuries.

What really troubled me was two main things:

1.) The way we can put out a goalkeeper and team who are clearly not trained properly in how to act at set pieces.


That is the fault of the coaching staff.

That is not down to big bucks.

That is a matter of getting in Keown or Dixon as defensive coach on £250,000 a year for five days a week. Four days with the first team, and perhaps a day working with the reserves too.



2.) The formation and substitutions were not designed to get the best out of the players available.


That is Wenger's fault.

Why was Diaby so deep? He is not good enough, yet if he plays at least have him further forward where he can run with the ball towards the penalty area, which he is not bad at.

Why have Vela wide? What does he contribute?

Why not bring Walcott in to the middle with Van Persie? At least Walcott was running at them, he might be small compared to Samba but his pace could have caused Samba to foul him and give away free kicks in vital areas.

Why sub Eboue? He was working his socks off? Was he injured and we were not told?


Rant over.
