    Jack ****e, giroud ****e, rosicky ****e.

    Wenger could have surely found someone with a bit of pace in January.

    Awful performance. just awful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,100 ✭✭✭Barlett


    They lacked ideas tonight...I think they've ran out of steam...its a while now since they played really well and the lack of another option up front is really starting to hurt now

    I disagree there. I thought he showed great urgency. Far more then Santi or Jack.

    Gutless, spineless, pathetic!

    This lark of no one available in January is pure bs, anyone with a bit of pace would have done


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,205 ✭✭✭Gringo180


    Said it 2 days ago it would be 0-0. We wont score against any decent team that will press us and that play deep at the back. Were so predictable. Makes me sick that were just one player, a top class centre forward short of winning this league. Always the same, we will buy a centre forward in the summer and lose a few of our best players and were back to square one in been a few short!!! GUTTED!!

    Serious serious mental block when it comes to sides like Utd, Chelsea, City etc.

    I have to say it:

    I was right about Giroud. Not good enough.

    Jack's been poor mind so I'm 1/2

    Yeah tonight just showed we lack any kind of pace and skill upfront.
    Everything's so narrow it's unbelievable. Vidic and Ferdinand both aging players and we haven't got one player with pace to get behind them.
    Wilshire was good as was Carzola at least thy tired to get something.
    Ozil was average again and Mikel shouldn't be a first teamer. The GK was excellent as was our defence.

    But I knew it be a drab 0-0 simply cause we ain't good enough to break down the top teams.

    Time to move her on I'm afraid pal

    I dunno. I think she might have saved a good bit of his hair tonight to be honest (assuming the lad your replying too is not a baldy)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,752 ✭✭✭Mr Blobby


    Not buying a Striker has really hurt us. Every team in the top4 has backup strikers they can use par us.

    Ozil was probably are best attacker.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,711 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    No stones again. Sick of it. Lack of a striker evident, and Wenger doesnt trust the bench. 2 windows and still no option up top. Shameful. At the end of the day, the worst United team in 20 years took 4 points off us.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,300 ✭✭✭HazDanz


    That was just disheartening and stale.


    Ozil was good and was trying hard. No complaints. He needed a striker who knew that you had to face the goal to actually score at some point in a match.

    Wilshere second half was absolutely shocking. I thought he was supposed to be a big game player? Looks anything but that this season.


    Arteta also terrible.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,428 ✭✭✭.jacksparrow.


    I disagree there. I thought he showed great urgency. Far more then Santi or Jack.

    I counted 5 balls he gave straight back to United.

    Anyone can run around with urgency, its what you do when you get the ball that counts

    If I was Podolski I'd be into Wenger's office tonight with a transfer request.

    Was tailor made for him to come on.

    I was disgusted to see us passing it around the back during injury time there rather than going for a winner.

    His passing was atrocious though


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,435 ✭✭✭wandatowell


    Whats up with Arsenal?

    Is it just a case of us being way better than the poorer/**** teams and just barely being able to cope with a good team or what?

    UTD were there for the taking twice this season and we have been utter muck both times.


    Giroud had me pulling my hair out tonight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,996 ✭✭✭ronjo


    I must be alone but I didn't think it was too bad.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,216 ✭✭✭Looper007


    You could hear the crowd moan at the end with no urgency from our team. It was another miserable night.

    He made a few good passes too though. Jack standing like a statue not even making himself available the cocky little s***


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,752 ✭✭✭Mr Blobby


    Also fair play to Szczesny.
    He's been brillante this season and if it wasn't for him we'd have lost tonight's game.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 9,425 ✭✭✭FearDark


    I feel so sorry for Podolski, playing the donkey ahead of him frustrates the life out of me. And yes I meant donkey.

    It wasn't bad but it was way way too predictable. It didn't feel like we were going to break them down from the start. We have no pace in the team and our main striker isn't good enough. It was alright but should have been better.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,711 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    And to think we refused to pay the money for Higuain. What a joke.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,462 ✭✭✭✭WoollyRedHat


    The last minute or two when we need a goal or two and we pass it in our own half?WTF shameful stuff.


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 13,016 ✭✭✭✭jank


    Mentally were are ****ed for the rest of the season and Wenger knows it. Its the same story all the time. When there is no pressure and people write Arsenal off they go and do well, when the pressure is one usually this time of year, they crumple. The issue is with Wenger tbh, it must rub off the players.
    This time next week we will probably be out of the running in all competitions……again.

    Who? Rosicky? Pod belongs on the left, should have been on instead of oxo, he offers nothing as a lone striker.

    One or two went astray i accept but he was at least trying to drive the game forward. There was easily 2 or 3 worse then him.

    Fúcking Wenger anyway with his penny pinching. He didnt need to break the bank just get a lad in who can put the fúcking ball in the net on the cheap. We're sitting on a huge cash pile and his only signing was a 31 year old with a bad fúcking back. Im sick of it :mad:
