I hope this is not the memberships of people lending a membership to a mate like all do!!

Shocking defending. Really was poor for a schoolboy team, let alone international level defenders.
Defenders badly let us down. Could not believe what I was watching.

We played pretty well, though only scoring once when we had 33 attempts on goal is pretty piss poor.

Trying to be positive - we did outclass them for long periods - but they know how to win games when second best.

Decent atmosphere again and it was great to hear such noise when we were 2-0 down.

Players simply have to turn up now on Sunday. No excuses.
How can you not include the "manager" in your criticism ??

He brought every one of those players to the club, he (supposedly) coaches them, he sets the formation, he chooses the tactics, he has seen this type of performance dozens of times before but he does nothing to fix the problems.

As others have pointed out, the players change but the mistakes remain the same. The only constant is Wenger. So I ask again "How can you not include the "manager" in your criticism ??"

I don't think you'll get an answer to that one :wink:
