Mertesacker is too slow to be playing football, at all, he was partly to blame for the Graham goal. Ramsay is surpassing his previous shit performances by the game, want to see him OUT, pronto. Song cant keep or pass the ball. Arshavin was being his usual shit self. Red Member, mate, what do you say about Arshavin now, he's started and was still shite.

Henry the Legend, bless him, he is too slow but that is not his fault so i cant blame him. However RVP very casual today, i think he's made from wood! Miquel was absolute shit. i could go on...:banghead:

All in all, Wenger has built a team, yes, but a team of utter shite and he refuses to change this through sheer stubbornness and ulterior motives. to those who think he will be sacked need to get a reality check, because Wenger along with the Board are in this together to ruin the club and make money off it.

So Get that BANNER out boys, set up FB pages, start a campaign, because we've got nothing more left to lose.

well wenger is a big enough man to know when his being stitched. He and the board were only to happy kill investment in this team. Wenger does his experiment, The board get their profits, paid through via the fans. Trickle by trickle reducing the fans expectations of the football club.

If you're saying not much will change in terms of competing with wenger leaving, i'd agree. But lets not forget Kroenke is only to happy for Wenger to continue because he wont be asking for his money, Im sure he'd expect the new guy to the same.

You utter, utter, cretinous C**T Wenger.

Sooner this club gets rid of Loser fans like you, the sooner Arsenal will be great again.
That's an idiotic comment.

We don't all have to bow down at Harry's altar and pretend to ***** him off like a catholic choirboy. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion
erm no, he's actually spot on and just as much entitled to voice his own opinion as anyone else here. however you and others are more than entitled to delude yourselves. what Babs has said is justified and shows what small-minded fans we have.

Well said Babs, hit em where it hurts lad :wink:

Im an arsenal fan baba 34 yrs so who the fuck do you think you are to tell me to piss off.I can guarantee if you were standing beside me right now you wouldnt be making comments like that.Ive been through the years where we didnt win anything like alot of gooners on here and we are still following arsenal and i always will whether we win anything our get relegated.So i dont need some gutter scum like you telling me to fuck off.
I'd tell you to fuck off if I was standing next to you. Fact.
Now go celebrate the Spuds extending their lead over us to 10 points. That IS what you were doing last night - right?
:roll:

Plankton.

I made 4 posts yesterday in reference to the scum and if you are capable of reading no where in any of those posts have i celebrated the scum winning i was just concerned about your state of mind after your team dropping points.

the only ray of hope is that Kroenke takes action when we fail to qualify for CL, and that's now a certainty for me. This will hopefully reduce fans into the stadium making their business model look obsolete.

This protest must not just target Wenger, but the board as well. The rot is everywhere now.

Shez played well, but his positioning for Graham's goal was very poor.

Defensively we looked all over the shop. A lot of this caused by constantly giving the ball away in midfield and inviting pressure onto us, but Miquel was often caught out of position. Mertesacker still needs to adapt to the pace of this league and Djourou looks woeful. You can't defend with one defender, Kos on the whole had a decent game. We need Santos, Gibbs, Vermaelen and Sagna back asap.

In midfield we just looked woeful today with our passing. On at least 4 occasions Song must have missed an Arsenal player by 20 yards with a simple pass. He is now trying to play passes like the one he played for Henry on Monday all the time, when a simple pass will do. Arshavin was poor from about the 10th minute when he was moved back onto the left wing from the central position he had adopted. Benayoun was anonymous for the majority of the game. I didn't think Ramsey played as badly as others made out (The penalty wasn't a pen, Arshavin's ball through to him for their 2nd was poor) but he still lost the ball to easily. Walcott is a luxury we cannot afford and would make an ideal "supersub".

I also thought RvP was very lax, especially in the 2nd half.

We need 2-3 players in January as a minimum (not including Henry) but I fear we are not going to get them

Why is it that every time someone has a disagreement people call Baba and others Spuds fans. That's a pathetic and childish insinuation aimed at a fan who has genuine concerns. There are many fans here that say pretty much what Baba say, in their own way sure, but are they Spuds fans as well?

Give it a rest, man!

Your couldn't write a comedic script better than this. Our team sheet alone would surely inspire a few chuckles. Of course we do our usual routine, show a bit of class and take the lead, before surrendering and eventually giving them the lead. Oh wait, when the game looks absolutely hopeless who pops up with a bit of class and ties the game? Our most brain dead and useless player, Theo Walcunt!!!! Looks like we got a game on our hands.....oh wait, we immediately give the ball away and allow Swansea to score the exact same goal! What a fucking joke!

God forbid we make any substitutions when the game is still tied. Our leader is too much of an arrogant prick to adapt to another team, as if that would be conceding defeat. Arrogant, senile, and insane old fuck. When the Ox is finally subbed on its only 76 minutes too late!

Rosicky, arshavin, Djourou, squillaci, Almunia, fabianski, Denison, bendtner, Diaby......why do we have so many useless fucks on our books?! I would kill to have Kranjcar or Pienaar on our bench right now!!!! Liverpool and spuds drawing at home isn't even that bad because they must know now that we won't capitalize on any advantages!

We will not finish above spurs!

We will not finish in the top 4!

We will not re-sign RVP!

Henry has just booked a red eye flight back to NYC for later tonight, he's already ready to leave!!!


The sad thing is, we won't see any changes. Kroenke wont do shit, wenger isn't going anywhere. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :banghead: :finger: :finger: :finger: :mrgnu: :mrgnu: :mrgnu: :finger: :finger: :finger:

Said it before and I'll say it again.
Which other big club would have fans that just sit back and watch one overpaid dickhead destroy their club? Consistently for SEVEN years!
The prediction was made after Wenger fucked the title in 2008, them got rid of Diarra, Gilberto, Flamini - after losing Cole before - anyone with a brain could SEE where Arsenal were heading.
4th began to count as an achievement, showing off about "outplaying" Chelski in cup finals we LOST.

Wenger has been taking the piss for years, moaning about wages in football but picking up a fortune for himself. Ploughing YOUR money into the French league for rubbish. Gervinho, great signing where is that c*** now? And Chamakh?

It was said LONG ago that, if fans continued to make excuses for Wenger as he continues to asset strip the club, Arsenal would be overtaken by Spuds. The sheep laughed, now it's happened.
The sheep also said Wenger was a "guarantee" of quality football. Swansea are proof he isn't, as despite a superior wage bill he was ridiculed Again. A lesson.
It was also said that if Wenger's arrogance continued, Arsenal would fall out the CL. That's happening now.

Finally, it was said that unless the FANS put serious pressure on him, by booing at matches and STOP RENEWING AND BUYING TICKETS that nothing would change and Arsenal board and Wenger's deceitful ways ran the risk of turning us into a mediocre midtable team.

Fulham, Swansea, Blackburn, Spuds, average Liverpool, and co have all piled it on.

You can sit back, renew and let this nightmare continue. Or, you could stop giving them your dosh and you'll see a massive change. Your choice.

Wenger has single handedly ruined Arsenal and the lesson here is that NO ONE should EVER be given that much power and God status ever again. No matter what they've done.

All the muppets that slag off the Graham teams say
"Do you want to go back to the dark days?"

Well guess what? Under Wenger the football is shit, the players are mercenaries, the wage bill is much higher, we win fuck all, we throw the cups and it costs the fans an arm and a leg.

Oh and under Graham there was a chance of quality defending, players with passion for the shirt, and the odd trophy.

So there. Never mind. Let's all do what most of us do, forget about it, say " Arsene WILL make a splash this summer" and "judge Arsene after the summer window closes".

Then when we beat a rubbish side at home, everyone can pay each other on the back.

Sad what's happened to this great club. All down to one c****

I have fully supported Baba's right to have a say on this forum, but I also believe it should be restricted to his view of the game and the club. His constant rude insults of other posters isn't acceptable.
McDowell (his choice for this game) has supported Arsenal easily as long as Babatunde and shouldn't be derided for his comments.
Debate is about questioning/challenging each others opinions not each other, because at the end of the day we are all Arsenal fans and we are all entitled to be

The fact that he cannot come and do an interview after to me says it all, is he too embarrassed ? I cant imagine he's still in the changing room motivating them for the next game? All those players we played against mostly championship and lower, this is our current level, I know a few injuries to come back but not enough guts all round! :banghead: : :banghead: :banghead:

Swansea are a better footballing side than we are, especially when they are without possession.

It was a brilliant performance from the home side which was helped by no back-up plan from us, not for the first time this season.

Best home fans in the Premier League too. What had they, 17,000 home fans? and they made ten times more noise than the 50,000+ we got.

The Arsenal decline continues..

Thumbs up to Oxlade-Chamberlain. The only player who actually tried his hardest during the final minutes and he sits at home watching on tv every other week. About sums things up :banghead:

Furious that we lost today's game but thought we played well. Should have got something out of it. Swansea can count themselves fortunate to get the penalty (proved in replays that it should have been free kick and booking against them!) and I thought their winner was, marginally, offside.

We were caught in possession too often and I thought Ramsey tried too hard, although understandable given the opposition.

So please, stop on this Wenger out bollocks on this particular thread. Nothing happened today that made those calls any more justified. And to the person - a long way from here - who said that this was Arsenal's worst ever performance.....you can't have seen us play much!

Lets keep this thread for discussion of a match we were probably a little unlucky to lose and keep talk of banners, protests and Wenger out to the numerous existing threads....!

PS we'd have fantastic support if we were in a 20,000 capacity stadium. And we'd spend most of our time in the football league, exactly as Swansea do..... Please don't congratulate them for that!

Maybe so chaz, its all banter on here thats why i enjoy this forum but i take exception to been told to fuck off and stop supporting arsenal by a gobby little nomark like him.I dont mind the name calling cos its water off a ducks back to me but ive been an arsenal supporter for most of my life and to be told to fuck off that to me is far worse than being called a scum fan.


Believe it or not i actually agree with the majority of stuff baba posts but dont need it rammed down my throat all the time.And as for you get a fucking job you student bastard :wink: :lol:
