It's a full blown crisis, make no mistake about that.

another silly excuse. did you see the team we put out today? more than good enough to get a win. probablem was the lack of defensive cohesion, tactics and leadership.
We had our first choice defence out there today and the quality of goals we conceded were comical - we had a player up front that cost more than probably half their team combined, plus the likes of the Ox & Santi.

I fail to see what 'injuries' have to do with not being able to take a corner or free kick properly or a goalkeeper that goes walkies....or best still passes it straight to an opponent six yards out

Injuries my fucking arse - Southampton did to us what they did in the League Cup and for 85 minutes until they went down to 10 at our place last month - watched us pussyfoot around in no man's land and then broke at pace and muscled our fairies out of it with the likes of Wanyama and Pelle. Giroud is the only injured player who would have made any difference as he might have at least been able to hold the thing up but Jack, Rambo, Ozil (remember him), Captain Stupid, Arteta etc would have made fuck all difference

Where was this amazing mental strength we have?

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

In the sense that we would have lost 2-0 against 10 men rather than 11, agree

But we still would have had absolutely no fucking presence up front whatsoever.....in fact they would have defended even more deeply and headed everything away as our diddy men tried to find the perfect pass

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

Listening to some of the so called 'experts' after the game, it's amazing how many of them still make reference to how good we are to watch,I mean, WTF?
Do they actually see our games or are they all blind to what is clearly a myth?
