No doubt

Yep. Hard to watch. Two players with no ability to control a game through passing and recycling possession. And neither breaks up play all that well.
We are just so damn good on the counter that it is just so painful to watch it so rarely happen.
Just seeing a rusty Coquelin win the ball back so many times this weekend was such a welcome sight.

Well it was a good run fellas. Can't drop 9 points in four matches.

2 wins from 7. What a fricking disaster this has become.

When we once again let ourselves rely on Mathieu Flamini for a long stretch of games, we disqualified ourselves from any right to win the league.
If Flamini plays another match I'm not watching it. Even when he's not terrible, he offers absolutely nothing. At best, he points and doesn't frick everything up.

Theo substitution failed miserably as well.

Should I bother trying to watch a stream/download of this later?

Glad I missed this match..hey, atleast they'll finish top four again..maybe

Yeah we certainly don't look like a title winning team. Hopefully with Coq back Flamini doesn't ever see the field again, but I won't hold my breath. Theo needs to be up top- he was invisible on the wing today. Ozil and Sanchez were obvious bright spots. Our defense still looks shaky, and yeah that Flamini Ramsey pairing is terrible. Neither has any defensive awareness. The middle was wide open for S'ton all game.
For the entertainment value? No. If you want to all game and watch us have 13 corners, 10 shots on goal, and still fail to score for the third game in a row, then yes.

So fricking frustrating. We better go balls out during the summer transfer window and if we extend wenger that will be a huge mistake.

Our mentality under Wenger is the most concerning. The tactics are baffling at times, as are the team selection and refusal to buy decent depth, but the way we come out flat for games that really matter is what pisses me off the most. How many times do we have to lose to a shite Chelsea team, or look lost against midtable teams, when we should act like a title contending team and come out aggressive and take the game to them, early? It's so frustrating.

What is weird is that I thought that was the best we had looked going forward in a while. Ozil and Alexis just had some filthy linkup plays. We just couldn't finish at all today.

this with better midfield play would have put the game away. too many times did we give the ball away sloppily in the mid field or, in flamini's case, never even looked forward when passing.

Ramsey has been a shell of his 2013-14 self, and Flamini is just a massive fail. Not sure why Arsene insists on playing him. It's baffling. That combo costs us points.

Question:
If Wenger doesn't deliver a title this year, are all of y'all finally over him?

Not at all. If anything Arsenal have overachieved since last winning a title. Knockouts of the UCL every year, 1 UCL final a UCL semi-final, 2 Fa Cups and finishing top 4 every year.
The financial constraints were real on the club, that we finished top 4 with Vermaelen, Squillachi and Djourou as our center backs and Almunia in goal says a ton about Wenger.
Sure he is stubborn and at times tactically naïve, but he is a great coach and only a few teams could say they had a better coach over the same time frame.

It really wouldn't be all that crazy to be back at the top of the league in two weeks. City and Leicester play next week and then we get Leicester at home and City has to play Spurs.
I agree, it certaintly does not look good right now, but it isn't over.
It's just a shame because Arsenal could have been looking at a great opportunity to pull away the next few weeks instead.

This is about the worst the Premier League will ever be. If he can't win it this year, when will he?
