Recall this doom and gloom last season , assumptions Arsenal will lose to "mighty" Man City and Man Utd.

Complacency wont be an issue, Arsenal will play their best game of the season after that disgrace in the CL and nick all 3 points.

Yet just as likely to no show 2 weeks later @ Watford and lose.

Having said that, there are a lot of positives so far this season and I am confident the team will go on get better and stronger.

if what you said is true, then, that's quite disappointing from the manager and club. It makes absolutely no sense to prioritize EPL over ECL. The ECL is more prestigious and being a cup competition, you never know what can happen. When you are in it, you just have to give it your best shot.
After the shambles on Tuesday, I watched a lot of the anger/frustration from Arsenal fans. I didnt blame Wenger as much of the other fans did, because I believed that the team he sent out was strong enough. I didnt think Ospina was going to be such an a.s.s.hole. Based on Gibbs performance against spuds, i thought his selection was merited. As for Coq, well, a lot of Arsenal fans had been calling for him to be given a starting role all summer. Overall, i thought the team was strong enough to go their and win. When they didnt, i sympathized with the coach, because i felt his players had let him down massively. It was such a huge disappointment to be honest
My bro, I am guessing because he has made too many changes for the 2 games they have lost. Having said that, you are right when you say the team out there was good enough to win on the day. The Manager placed too much faith on the players and they let him and us down massively.

I must say, Wenger's teams use to be good in the CL with qualification out of the group stages guaranteed. Wenger mainly kept it tight and his teams were patient. This is how he got to a CL final. But in recent seasons, he has changed tactics, become more expansive, consequently we have had these results. I must also add, that for me watching these games live, teams in Europe are now just as fast and physical as EPL teams. They have always been very good tactically but lacked the heart and physical preparedness. For me, this has been the biggest change I have witnessed in European teams at the Emirates, especially when compared to Highbury.

The EPL must now make allowances for their teas like they do in Europe. They must start by allowing CL teams play on Friday. I am tired of watching Arsenal play dead players, especially at this time of the year due to international breaks and too many games plus travelling. Wenger has tried to counter this by rotating but it has backfired.

Overall, I'm still hopeful for the season, I have seen a lot of positives in this team this season to say an early exit has its positives.

The fact that you agree with Wenger's decisions doesn't make them the right choices.

The team (and coach) isn't good enuff...period!!! Facts are facts, feelings are feelings.

The dude thinks he's on Sesame Street talking to Muppets.

He's trying to slyly put that narrative in our subconscious that Wenger is prioritizing the league as excuse for the poor performance. This the same dude who claimed the team was good enough to compete on all fronts. So now they're not and he is picking his battles? :mrgreen:

Yes, I agree with Wenger because I take a lang term holistic view about Arsenal. Besides, Arsenal are FA cup winners for the past two years. On the basis of my experience of watching the game and understand the game and how it is run for over 20 years in England. I may not know much but I have vast experience of watching and supporting. I know my position is right. If it was wrong, Wenger will be long gone. No bad Manager keeps a job for 19 years inane league.

You lot are only screaming and wishing against all hope the team do badly so the Manager somehow goes, You are all in lala land. In fact, you lot really do not have a clue. Honestly! Do you think Arsenal football club will listen to your foolish rantings against a man like him?

To show how ridiculous young your ilk are. How can a team, in a position to go top of the league should they win on Sunday not be good enough. It is only here I read such rubbish. :taunt: :taunt: :taunt: :taunt: :taunt:

On the basis of Arsenal's position in the league alone, your opinion of the team not being good enough is pure and arrant nonsense. The facts are in the league table not your feelings and bias. I don't do feelings, I do cold hard facts with the stats to back up every position I take. The evidence is all over this Board, Twitter and a Blog. Of course, anyone with a clue about football, will not look at the league table and spew the crap you have written above. This is why I do not take your posts seriously on this subject. Stick to the Patriots. :sneaky: :sneaky:

BTW! You can scream to to roof tops, it will never make your opinion or mine relevant. Go sack the Wenger, if you really believe you are relevant.

Exactly how long is "long term"? One year, five years, a decade, a dozen years, fifty, a hundred, a thousand, forever???

Keep shifting the goalpost. Someday you'll run out of room and fall of the cliff.

Since Arsena turned the corner financially, stopped selling its best players, we have won 2 FA Cups and the club has improved in the league. We now have a team that will challenge for the league title and possibly win the league or another major trophy this season.

However, you can understand pessimism on this one while everybody were out flogging Man Utd under Moyes. We managed to lose and tie the league fixture with that crappy Manure team so I wasn't so optimistic about this fixture but boy did they show up and turn out!

I know the numbers but many experts case was built on sand. It was SAF that well and truly had AW's number..Arsenal record against SAF lead Man Utd was downright depressing. Post SAF the resuits have been and will continue to be far kinder to AW and Arsenal.

Post SAF results...

2 wins

2 draws

2 defeats

I know Man Utd fans will moan but their era of dominance vs Arsenal and PL as a whole is over. To paraphrase former Boston Celtic coach Rick Pitino, Rio Ferdinand is not walking through that door, Vidic not walking through that door, Ronaldo not walking through that door, Roy Keane is not walking through that door, Paul Scholes is not walking through that door.
