Sad thing is, today is one of the better atmospheres down there. imo
I usually expect games against Liverpool to have fantastic atmosphere, The best bit was before and after the minutes silence and I will give the club credit for holding the silence for Fiszman and the 96, eveyone applauding was great.

I tried to sing up, but after a while when you see so many chances blown, no-one else singing up and the only noise coming from people moanng at our players when they seem allegric to shooting, you lose your mojo. Yeah, that probably makes me a terrible person.

I bet the reason the club keep playing "The Wonder Of You" Is them wondering how we have only put up with all this untill reecently.
To be honest mate,I just go on auto pilot and just can't help but sing anytime a chant comes up win lose or draw. But it's seeing the *word censored* not playing for the shirt and playing without 110% commitment is what kills me. The atmosphere at any home ground is going to be shit in these times. But I just want to see the people we support playing with same level of desire as other teams. I'm just not getting that back at all.

p.s Sometimes I do feel like we all expect too much. But we're constantly told we're good enough by the boss. I just wish he would come out a be real and admit this is the level of the team..

There was no passion at all today, essentially the same as it was against Blackburn and before that. We never looked like title winners and I certanly don't expect us to win it now, not with thick c**ts like Eboue, Diaby and Denilshit in the squad and Wenger always making excuses.

I hope for the Villa game we all make our feelings known now.

taking the emotion out of it. If we had held on our chat would be a lot different. Football is a fucking horrible game at the moment. I do just think we all have to remember, that Carroll and suarez cost pretty much what our whole first 11 cost. We're over archiving on what we have. So Wenger needs props for that, but he is just showing lack of ambition by not competing in the transfer market.

the point is mate, that we didn't hold on, and that is a repeating failure.

as has been mentioned elsewhere, there was a catalogue of players shitting themselves in those last 2 minutes - song's poor tackle - again - unable to clear the ball, then eboue.

These things are always going to happen because these players have been treated like Wenger's own children.

They all need to grow a pair...and then add one.

Need a striker to partner RVP & need a change of mentality at the back. In a nut shell.

When we socred the pen there was barely any reaction from the bench at least on Camera. Mybe you don't expect it form Arsene Wneger but the players stood up for a second and then sta down, I was shocked by that to say the least. Any other year - at least before 2006 that might have been a League-winning pen and you would barely know it mattered at all.

It was very telling to see the lack of reaction from our players when the ref gave them the penalty.

Not one of them went to protest against the decision.

It's little things like that that show these players absolutely have no passion or desire.

Doesn't this come back to what everyone has been saying?

The spine of the team needs beefing up. World class GK, CB, DM, CF.

AW thought he could do it on the cheap again. Fair enough the prices of top footballers have gone through the roof.

I cannot believe we see the same type of performance over and over again and nothing changes. WTF does AW say to them?

Throw some boots and fucking tea cups Arsene for God sake and stop whinging about everything other than the facts laid out before you.

Lacklustre, lazy performance again. No leadership on or off the pitch except for Pat Rice clapping his hands at them whilst AW sits there sulking. Pre-determined substitutions at the prescribed time again.

Just not good enough

We didn't deserve to win today (again) so justice done when they got their penalty.

I am not giving them £1200 + 6% up front so they can take the piss for another year. Enough is enough and still have to suffer the possible pain of seeing them fold against the Scum and Mancs.

Utter Disgrace! :banghead:

Regardless of the result we were yet again poor!
No plan B, no urgency.
and as for the subs!!! :twisted: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

A Major shake-up is needed.


For those moaning about Redaction it’s a tad unfair.
As most have said the before and time and time again the atmosphere is poor in the Grove at anytime and any sound simply doesn't travel.
In hindsight yes they [RA] may have been poor but there only a small part of the Grove. You can't single them out and expect them to make all the noise for everyone.

The players ain't helping the fan anyway.
We're too tense as fans, watching the players busy tapping the ball around the box from side to side waiting to see what happens and before you know it 10 minutes have passed of nothing.
When something decent happens like a direct run at goal or even a shot (remember what that was?!) the fans DO react but we're not direct enough.

Anyone notice how the players just left the pitch straight away…basically in shame.
Only Theo and Jack came off the benches to support the fans. Yet again the only two to appreciate our support.

And As for Eboue….no one went to him after.
The one that’s SO popular in the dressing room that no-one put an arm around him. I didn’t want them to either as it shows him what a *word censored* he is.
Also the NONE of the players have twitted since the game. No apology, no “we must pick ourselves upâ€
