    And we moan about the season weve had
  • Arsenal are pinning all their hopes on to winning the Europa League and getting into the Champions League

    If one from Man Utd | Spurs | Chelsea win the FA Cup then Arsenal will be back in Europe next season regardless as the Europa League spot will be given to the side that finishes 7th

    Only PL team not to get an away point in 2018. Won't win anything this season when they get knocked out in the EL semi. In danger of finishing below Burnley in the PL. And they charge the most for season tickets in the country.

    Think one or two of us would moan about that lot.

    Even better, they're the only team in the entire country not to get an away point in 2018

    No sympathy for them, poor buggers

    They did nothing to replace the leadership, quality and arsehole they lost years ago and have got by largely by being a very decent footballing side who were occasionally capable of whacking 6 past someone and only being stopped when sides kicked the shit out of them.

    Now they aren't even the best footballing side, they are miles behind man city, Liverpool and even Burnley in terms of moving the ball well

    Extraordinary how bad their away form has been this year, when their home form is as good as Man U's and better than Liverpool

    Saw something on my Twitter feed this morning about net spend in the Prem last 5 years. They were 4th. Now I’m in agreement with Wenger that keeping up with Man City is very hard given what they’ve spent, but in those years if you’re the 4th highest spender you have to say they shouldn’t have dropped out the CL, which they now have. Also look at what Leicester did to win it in that period, they haven’t spent anywhere near as much but they still had what it takes to win it

    Speaks volumes for how far done Wenger and Arsenal are as a major force

    Wenger has had this hard-done-by blame mentality since he started at The Arse, it is very rarely, if ever, his or his players at fault

    Teams with most passes in the PL:

    Arsenal 20,798 passes - 62 goals scored and 45 conceded
    Man City 24,193 passes - 93 goals scored and 25 conceded

    In the words of the song "it ain't what you do it's the way that you do it"

    Maybe they should get points for artistic impression, we would have picked up some for our passing on Saturday as we never looked like scoring.

    Of the so called "big six" clubs, Arsenal also have the oldest average age for starting XIs this season - so they can't even argue that they have been building for the future because the other five are not only above them in the table but younger too.

    think theyll land butland next season, they need a mass rebuild as above poster they've got an aging squad, the board wont give wenger or the new manager the cash to buy. oh well what a shame.

    So Dick Emery is the new manager.

    After matches instead of a civilised handshake the opposition manager will get a punch on the shoulder and be told: 'ooh you are awful but I like you!'

    Indeed. Spurs were able to celebrate Arseover.

    Sadly what looks like a good managerial appointment for them.
