We're fucking 10th now! I can't believe this shit! It's just pitiful, most of that performance was pitiful, and it has gotten to the point where enough is enough frankly.
To me, the issue is the formation, and I have thought this for a little while now. It USED to work, but now teams know exactly how to beat us. We can't create enough chances, we're only lively during little periods as opposed to entire matches, and nothing is working anymore. Swansea were great, not taking anything away from them, but if Wenger doesn't stop being a stubborn fucker then I may just join the "Wenger Out" bandwagon. I hate to say it, but we have a huge fucking problem and I don't see Wenger changing shit. It'll be the usual "I believe in the squad we have", formation will stay the same, etc.
Only positive about the game - Rosicky is back!
Time for Wenger to go imo. Been saying this for over a year to Arsenal fans but they all got offended and butthurt, thinking Wenger still had something to offer. You guys should snap up Di Matteo whilst you can, or troll chelscum by bringing in Guardiola.
Why would Guardiola join a shit team on the decline like us when he could walk into any team in the world.
Awful, awful stuff today. Should never be losing to mediocre mid table sides at home.....we are turning into Liverpool.

Thats an ironic post right? Di Matteo isn't half the manager Wenger is. Wenger is doing the best he can with what has been given him, blame the club not him.
Anyway I am pretty pleased with Villa's point today was always going to be tough with it being Redknapp's first home game, also it keeps our unbeaten string of results going and will give the players more confiderence. I predict a better second half of the season and we may well make Dale eat his words yet...
Another game another draw. Good result considering it was against Man City but we outclassed them for large periods of the game much like against Arsenal but it seems only Fellaini can score nowadays.
And you're saying this only because of what Wenger has achieved, not what he's done recently, correct?
First off, I'll still take Wenger over pretty much any manager on the market right now. We may all want the 'old' Arsenal back, but let's not forget who created the 'old Arsenal'.
Secondly... well, that was a bit crap. Seriously, despite my backing of Wenger I am officially worried now. A this stage I just don't even know what to say any more.
Kudos Swansea, you were by far the better team. You worked hard and played some lovely football at times. Also, kudos to the Arsenal fans that clapped Swansea off the pitch after the game.

Haven't bought a season ticket this year because it got to the stage where it was too much of a chore to go watch us. Dragging yourself to a football game on Saturday to watch your team battle at the bottom of the League 2 table really wasn't fun. Funnily enough we're up in the playoffs now i'm not going. As for Thompson, I haven't even read our message boards this year but from what I can gather listening to the radio he kind of seems of the pace and hasn't lived up to what was expected from him yet.
As for Arsenal, sure they're in shit form right now and nothing seems to be going right for them and are in 10th place but let's not blow the situation completely out of proportion and pretend their battling relegation, they're 5 points off of 3rd place.
As for sacking Wenger, go ahead but who's going to replace him? Only reason I see Guardiola being interested is because it's the same philosophy of football he had at Barcelona and he would get plenty of time to turn things around but Arsenal are a level well below United & City, two clubs who would be interested him. Another one would be someone like Mourinho but he'd likely need change the whole philosophy around and I reckon he could succeed but like Pep above, better clubs would want him. There'd still be plenty of top managers applying for the job should it become vacant, but i'd see someone like David Moyes being considered given he's done probably everything he could at Everton.
But the problem Prod is that the only reason people seem to question Wenger is that Arsenal haven't won a trophey in seven years, is that really a good enough reason to sack him? Its not like they haven't competed at a high level for most of those seven years, its only been the last couple of seasons where they've looked out of their depth with the top teams. Man Utd went 26 years without a league title, for Arsenal its been less than a decade. PERSPECTIVE PEOPLE!
But to put this season in prospective, the club have two aims, one is to try and win a cup, on that front they are in the qaunter finals of the league cup and with Chelsea the only other top club left they have a good shot at winning that. Also they need to finish in the top four and yes that might be tricky this season, but with how tight it is they are still in the running for that. Its only December after all. Are things really that bad?

Even though it was against QPR it was great seeing Brett Holman score for Villa yesterday. It is nice seeing another Australian in the Premier League and he has really found form in the past few years for Australia and now he has a chance to play in one of the best leagues in the world. It can only improve him for when he plays internationals. QPR were okay, was hoping for that breakthrough win to get us off bottom especially against Villa which weren't too far ahead of QPR but it wasn't to be.
Thoughts on the FA Cup draw?
Brighton VS. Newcastle sounds a stand out to me. With the problem Newcastle are having and with it being at Brighton I can see a tasty game and atmosphere there with a rough time for the away side.

Yes Pete but it's not like Mancheser United went 26 years without a title under SAF is it..... Like I said, Wenger should be gone.
