Up the Arse! Goons Thread

[onthehill24]

Smashed.

another train wreck
it's not even a surprise anymore

 

[glenferry23]

City far too good, men v boys at times out there.

Dismantled.

 

[GinTonic]

Hard to find any positives with our list in general. Last thing I want to be is critical and negative, but geez its hard watching your club bleed out slowly.

 

[TheKanga]

We are about on the level as Everton, Burnley and Leicester.
We aren't a big side atm.

 

[dvp15]

AC Milan also just beat Roma 0-2.

 

[Shoei]

Did anyone expect anything else? I don't give a toss about the Care-less cup but another god-awful performance just shows how far away this team is from anything. Can't even pretend it was a contest.

Didn't even bother watching it. Didn't even bother watching the Europa league games. Probably won't bother to watch another game for the season.

Why? Because I've seen every game already.

I've seen Xhaka be terrible at everything.
I've seen Iwobi and Welbeck be dogshit.
I've seen Mustafi **** up defensively.
I've seen Ozil disappear.
I've seen Aubameyang/Lacazette miss chances they should score.
I've seen Aubameyang/Lacazette feeding off crumbs (not even scraps) trying to score.
I've seen Ramsey/Wilshere huff and puff but do **** all.
I've seen this team be bullied, battered, shredded and passed off the pitch by nearly every team above us and around us.
I've seen Wenger throw his hands up, look angry, bitch, moan and yell on the bench and change nothing.

I can't trick myself into pretending that i give a shit about this team anymore. There's nothing at all likeable about this team. It has no redeeming features. It used to be "oh well at least we'll play some good football....." but nope.

We don't play good football anymore.
We don't play interesting football anymore.
We play boring football for a club supposedly aiming to be one of the best in the world.

Boring boring Arsenal.

Well I am bored.

Monreal seems to get a lot of innocuous looking injuries in first halves.

I'm as critical as anyone of Arsenal but we are clearly better than those 3 sides, we are just substantially worse than the top 5.

 

[Benno_900]

And back the next week. He is a soft****.

 

[glenferry23]

Watching Mustafi appeal for that foul and then carry on after Aguero’s goal was pretty embarrassing.

 

[charcoalchicken]

Xhaka is a spud, mustafi isn't that much better, bellerin has gone backwards massively, ozil disappeared again, the only player out there that looked like they gave a shit was wilshere

 

[glenferry23]

What is Xhaka’s best position? We knew 18 months ago he’s not a DM. So what is he then? A deep lying playmaker? But then you can’t really have him next Wilshere. An how can you have Xhaka, Ramsey and Wilshere in the same line up? It just doesn’t work.

He’s not good enough and should probably be sold this summer.

 

[bok_party]

Where do you even start? It's like the players knew they weren't going to win before kick-off so they didn't bother.

 

[windyhill]

Millionaires v Billionaires, they are strolling the league and are favourites to win the champs league. Very nice of them to leave the f.a cup for the rest of the plebs to fight over. They could enter a team in the Europa and go close in that too. No shame losing to the billionaires boys.

There’s little doubting the gulf in class between the clubs. And the quality of players in each line up. And not even complaining about the result, we were nowhere near deserving.

But we at least need to make them earn it surely. Can’t go into a fixture like this as timid and weak as we were, it’s as if we’d already conceded the result before kick off. The goals themselves were also amateur.

It wasn't the money against Osterlund
It wasn't the money against Tottenham
It wasn't the money against Bournemouth
It wasn't the money against Notts Forrest
It wasn't the money against Swansea
It wasn't the money against Watford
It wasn't the money against Stoke....

When does the shame start?

Yep,didn't even fire a shot, the performance was pathetic.

Bayern. Barca, City. Europe is a closed shop.

 

[windyhill]

At the risk of repeating myself, the only way is to fight fire with fire , Usmanov in.

 

[Shoei]

That's got nothing to do with it. We are currently 8 points behind 5th in the league. Man City has nothing to do with the situation we are in.

8 points behind 5th.

Just let that sink in.

Yes that’s my point, didn’t even take it up to them. It’s a cup final, anything can (and often does) happen on the day. Reputations, prestige, money etc all don’t really matter when the whistle is blown.

We should have had a genuine go, instead we get that inept, weak performance. I never expected us to win, but expected us to try.

I do feel sorry for the core fans over there who stumped up considerable money yet again. Only to witness the team dish up that rubbish.

Exactly we are 12 points behind Liverpool & 10 behind Tottenham, neither of those are due to finances.

Better to be flogged than play into Wenger's glorious failure narrative

 

[dirty2]

The #Wengerout is going to be deafening by the end of season.

Edit. It will fall on deaf ears anyways.

People that want him in are few and far between, but I have no sympathy for him as he should have known when it was time to walk away.
