I feel like being benched has made him angry, and he frankly plays better off the bench. I get so tired of him playing like a damn pussy when he is 6'4 and has superb touch.

I think another key to Giroud's success as a super-sub is that defenders are tired after chasing other more athletic strikers around for 50, 60, or 70 minutes. It helps balance out Giroud's lack of pace since he has more energy than the man marking him.

ETA: It would be really nice if our team shows up today. Right now, I mean that literally. They are apparently stuck in traffic and are yet to arrive at Selhurst Park.

Strong lineup today. It won't be too easy of a game but hopefully we'll get a win.

Nothing like getting curb stomped by a team ten places below us in the table and just three points out of the relegation spots. Good job Arsène. Good job lads. Well on yee

Arsenal the gift that keeps on giving. I can't even muster up some anger. I'm just completely numb to it now.

Chelsea fans said the same thing last year. They added one player and changed the coach and now they will win the league. It starts from above.

the only thing I can say to counter that would be they still had the same squad as they did when they won the league the year before.

We need new everything. Some of these players just aren't fit to wear a shirt with an Arsenal badge on the front of it.

And Wenger needs to step down this year.

It's really not the team. It's a complete lack of defensive instruction. That we have allowed yet another goal off a route 1 ball in which a centerback charges aimlessly into the midfield to lose a header is proof that we are doing no actual instruction.

We've given up several goals in the last month the exact same way.

Then you're down 1-0 and they pack in and you push forward and you're fricked on the counter.

Wegner's ways are outdated. Thanks for your service. You are a legend. Now kindly leave.

Are depth in the back 4 is pathetic...doesn't help that our mids are horrible at tracking back...I agree..lots of changes need to happen starting at the top...there needs to be an overhaul on this team

Big Sam: "they leave Gabriel and Mustafi really exposed. You can get at them"

That's one of our big problems. The DM(s) don't cover worth shite. The positional instructions are outdated or just aren't being taught.
*sigh*
I wish we'd put in a bid for Weigl.

I hope the supporters cause enough uproar to bother Kroenke and the board. This is atrocious and they need to shoulder their responsibility in this as well.



god damn it sell the shares to Usmanov.

I was looking forward to watching the match all day having it Tivoed, then I saw the the score flicker on the ticker and...

What in the actual frick is going on? This team is more than a manager and/or 1 world class player away from being competitive.

Have you come to the dark side yet? This team is in a relegation battle and just outclassed us.
