Rogers Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 No European football next season for the first time in 25 years; 9th in the league, no cups. Fans have complained for years that they never replaced the Adams, Viera’s, Dixon’s, etc with character and fight. Seem to be getting worse every season.

owls maniac Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 Fans need to respond like Man Utd fans did last week and force Kroenke to sell to the Spotify guy. Another greedy Yank ******** who has been utterly useless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orlando_Trustful Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 They are firmly establishing themselves as a midtable side. Not convinced Arteta is got the ability and nous to turn them around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

31Dec1966 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Makes me laugh, "Long suffering Arsenal fans have had a disappointing season". Yeah, since the 2 1993 Cup Finals Wednesday fans have had a much better time! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyline Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Was a big media love in with Arteta at the start of the season, I'm surprised he's lasted the season. Arsenal fans hounded Wenger out towards the end of his tenure and although they were on downward spiral whilst he was there, he at least had them challenging for Europe places. Auba seems to have disappeared since he signed that new contract, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kopparberg Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Nothing against Arsenal but it’s to see these ‘super clubs’ enjoying a few ‘nothing’ seasons. Let someone else have a go. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fudge27 Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Arteta was a poor appointment. Same as lampard was for Chelsea. Both too inexperienced for such big jobs. Difference been Chelsea realised and got rid of a genuine legend. Arsenal are quite content with mediocrity and a guy who was an OK player for them. Arsenals culture from the very top needs to change chairman, board and manager. And they need a George Graham type not a wenger type. Simeone would be perfect or Allegri, but they may have shot their load with how poo they are these days in getting any such manager Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreshOwl Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 I thought it could be a good move initially. Seems like Pep taught him nothing. That decision to take off Auba last night for frickin Willian was mind blowing. Arsenal fans blew a fuse at that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scram Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 The fact they were invited to be founder members suggests they were right too And for the millionth time it was always about global appeal for financial purposes and not quailty on the pitch Arsenal are in a state of flux now - should have backed Wenger properly when they were always qualifying for the CL and winning trophies most seasons Be interesting to see how long they drift like this - so much remedial work needed it's gonna either be a new manager and a big windfall to allow some major signings Or close their eyes and hope for the best Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dronfield Blue Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Even Wenger couldn't turn the ship around when it started listing, although he never spent much in his latter years at Arsenal. Was that enforced by the owners? I don't know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scram Posted May 7, 2021 Share Posted May 7, 2021 Arsenal were notoriously poor realtion when paying wages for the so-called super clubs He couldn't turn it around because he kept on losing his best players as they weren't competitive with the finances Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal fans blew a fuse at that I didn't watch the game but was checking the BBC and Sky sites for updates, and they both said they took Aubameyang off for Lacazette. I think they took Tierney off for Willian. I get the point though: you'd have thought they'd have kept Auba on the pitch for the last few minutes.

Arsenal fans blew a fuse at that The commentator said when Martinelli was coming on "They will hope having someone with pace up top will frighten the Villareal defence" They had one of the quickest strikers in the game up front with Auba and did nothing to threaten that defence. It was a shocking performance, a bit like how Real Madrid setup against Chelsea. Needing a goal but doing nothing to actually push for a goal.
