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.
the real frustration about not being "ready" is that we should be the most prepared out of all the top teams
we havent changed our manager, the squad is much the same as last season and we have avoided the CL qualifier later this month.
our early fixtures are even pretty favourable.
THIS was a golden opportunity to get ahead of the other top teams who will be distracted by new managers, players and extra fixtures.
yet we have blown it........as usual
Gutted really. At 4-1 I was hoping they'd go on to win by 8 or 9. Just end this shit already. Leicester next, hopefully get rimmed by 3 or 4. We may as well ride this fucker to the gutter to finally make things better. This is what it has come to - indifference, self loathing and complete apathy.
As mentioned earlier in the thread if you are pro Wenger you are anti Arsenal. Simple as that. The barometer for success this season is not where we finish, or how well we do in the cups or how we play. Nope. The only way this season can be considered a "success" is if it's his last.
Whatever set of cluster fucks need to unfold for that to happen - sign me up for them. No more picking at the bandage it's time to rip that fucker clean off.
I'm supporting the club now a days, against all logic. I despise Wenger, he is an arrogant, disrespectful, incompetent ceunnt, who is fortunate to find himself at a club that rewards failure. This is no longer a football club, just one man's ego project, and its becoming harder to support the club, when the club doesn't give a shit about the fans, and treats us like muppets. Again yesterday, fans were being surrounded by stewards, for daring to have any anti-Wenger sentiments. As other posters have mentioned, its hard to bother with the club, when the club itself puts in fuck all effort.
WTF has happened to Ramsey inn the last 4/5 weeks? Where was the beast we saw in the Euro's, running his socks off, popping up everywhere, looking class.
It seems he comes back to Arsenal and doesn't give a shit. Why can't Wenger get the same out of him. I know it's a long season, and you can't expect him to maintain that sort of pace, but somewhere half near isn't unreasonable..is it?
Not got much else t say that hasn't been said a million times. At any other football club, Wenger would be answering some very uncomfortable questions today by the owners, I know I would if I showed this much incompetency in my job, and went into a project as woefully under prepared as this.
The most worrying thing is we buy a player at £30M who didn't play in the later stages of the Euro and he isn't considered ready or sufficiently integrated with the rest of the team to start. To compound this he has been there all through the pre season and a good number of the squad are injured or not ready.
Then we have listen to the Euros being an excuse. A joke, if Pogba had been eligible he would have played and he played right through to the final.
Spineless charlatan!
Coming from a supposed "genius" to come out and say "the team was not ready" is fucking stupid.
He thinks by saying that it's just another throw-away line, another excuse to deflect the attention away from him. But essentially he's blaming himself the stupid fucker and he doesn't realise it
It would be nice if for once he just admitted that he/the team were not good enough, but no, instead he has an answer for everything. It's the sort of behaviour your parents dial out of you when you're a kid.

This is exactly that winds me up the most. How he can be so fucking stupid not to understand that himself is beyond me.
Why is it us that isn't ready? Why are the other teams that will probably make up the top 6 ready? Why did Manure win, why did citeh win, how did the scum and toffees draw? Why did the mousers beat us? Were they all "ready"? Will the chav$ be ready? Why weren't we? What the fuck is going on? Is Trump ready?
You'd think we didn't have enough notice that the season started this weekend. But I guess if you spend a month in France commentating then it's easy to forget a minor date like the start of the season.

Because he is blissfully ignorant.
Or just plain stupid, can't really make my mind which...
I'm convinced this is the season that does him in, last year it took a while to build and he had the usual get out of jail moments. But this year its there for all to see from day 1, that hostile environment Is of his own making and to have TH14 on sky saying that Arsenal cant attract top players is damning, I know TH14 has his own agenda but its all fuel to the fire........heres hoping!!!!
