Arsenal Vs Chelsea

I'll never EVER criticise Coquelin-Cazorla pivot again.

Really not sure what Mert was thinking, not the first time he been caught and still keep doing same shit. We had 4 players back and still Merth manages to *bleep* it up.

Whats even worse is that we dont have a second striker, really embarrassing for a team fighting for a tittle. Wenger seems to gamble with everything rather than gambling on a second striker. I find it funny when people bring up Arsenal for the tittle we dont have what it takes be champion.

This result hurts but I am not mad and proud of the players for what they showed but they need help and not sure if the can get any time soon.

Playing Ramsey and Flamini against any decent midfield they would rape us. Its about time drop one or maybe both and I don't care for who. We have no competition at all and certain players don't seem to give a shit.

Damn. My not watching matches seems to be bad luck. My bad guys. I'll watch the Burnley match and we'll work it out.

If it is Flamsey again, I'll advise you to not bother at all.

Counting down the days until Cazorla comes back.

.... or, you know, start using the guy we signed.

Can't possibly be worse, could he?

Could he?

What if I say Sri's negativity is causing the bad results

Wenger afraid to change.

Nah.

You should see when I am positive. That's when the 8-2s, 6-0s, 6-1s etc happen.

The good old days when result didn't matter.

back after a long time to see the rants..
it is too predictable over the years.. some idiot will lose his head at the crucial time and Wenger will keep talking about the desire and mentality of our players..
and this time it is Metskr who has nothing to offer on the field other than his head..
Wenger never learns.. there was a period when Metskr was benched and Kos-Gabriel was doing so well, i thought that would be the end of Meskr as first choice combo.. but Wenger has slowly reintroduced him back and we are again playing highline with him.. guess planning to do the same against Barca..

Welcome back Wilson

Too bad u have to come back after such shitty game. Let's see if Mertz will get same treatment as Gabriel after last Chelsea game, benched for solid months. I just hope Elnyny up for it or else we're *bleep*

I was expecting Wilson to make a come back with his Mertesacker bashing - not disappointed

Very easy to blame the guy who was given the card.

But begs the question. Where the *bleep* was the midfield? That was not their first counter.

And why the *bleep* was Flamini playing striker? He had 3 of our 9 shots. Ramsey had 2. That's over 50% of shots taken by the deeper midfield players who were supposed to shield the defense. And not one shot was worth the effort either.

Meanwhile, Captain Theo continued to strut along the wide areas while there was nobody playing in front of Özil down the middle. He and Nacho on the same wing is as bad as Flamsey in the middle - 0 chemistry.

So please go with your hating. Actually bother watching games without putting on them biased glasses.

Yeah but Per put us in a bad position early in the game. Also think it's time Gabriel gets integrated into the first team. Per is still quality with what he can give us, but Gabriel is overall better than him imo.

Not saying Mertesacker didn't make a mistake.

But it is ridiculous to say he was the reason we lost. There are others who need a kick up their damn jimmies and its about time.

LMAO just watched the red card incident again.

You'd just had an attack with about 6 players forward.
Only Koscielny, Merte, Bellerin and Flamini are behind the ball.

When you lose the ball, 4 players are busy complaining to the referee about an imaginary handball, instead of switching into stopping Chelsea's counter.

Merte looks back in that situation. Your whole team was worse though.

Mertz shared the blame with the rest of the team, he was punished with the red card like Gabriel 1st game. Gabriel was on the roll prior to that Chelsea game and got benched until now, hence I questioned if the situation will repeat itself with roles reversed.

As for the team, we haven't done shit since Coq & Santi out. It's tired to talk about Flamsey & Wengers blind bias toward Theo. Remember that we were expecting 8-12 points last 4 games, Wenger's made some really questionable decisions and now we dip in form and points. I hope we will be able to hold on til full team is back.

This is not the first time our CBs have done this. We have no discipline at all, the managers job to make sure players are not leaving their position. If a players constantly leaves his position and still plays next game really shows a lot about who is in charge.

Rasmey and Flamini, I really dont know what position they play anymore? a tough manager would have rip his head off for playing a striker the whole game.

Well, we didn't really have anyone else to play all these weeks, did we.

At the end of the day, for all the criticism, we also have to be aware of the context - the fact that any suitable players are off to the medics.

Also, Gabriel: he was getting game time prior to the card in the prev match because Per/Kos were taking turns being injured or rested. It was not that one of them was benched. We still had only Chambers and Debuchy on the bench in those games iirc.

Its not just one game or a season, we dont have discipline. Henry said it best at Barcelona if you don't stick to your position you not going to play next game. Sadly we dont have the manager who would stand up and let the players know this. Its sad for a big club to have no option but to play Flamini, he makes other around him even more awful. Ramsey is just lost in the midfield and cant make a pass to save his life.

Every Arsenal player has the license to go anywhere they want with out consequences.

Wengers fault then. imo we just seem to have this mental mountain to get over against Chelsea.

We just seem to buckle every time we play them.
