Re: Arsenal vs Middlesbrough
Result as expected after Wednesdays heroics
Re: Arsenal vs Middlesbrough
5mins stoppage time... Boro take off Negredo in stoppage time... final whistle blows at 5 mins 2 seconds of stoppage time.
2 seconds allocated for a substitution? How is that fair? I thought it was supposed to be 30 seconds?

A point gained, toothless display and generally poor all round, not the first poor performance of the season but get ready for a lot more, shit November/December on the way

Re: Arsenal vs Middlesbrough
Normal service has been resumed...Spurs drop points, we can maybe sit on top after the weekend... cue fear, worry & panic... we are not ready for those heady heights. We need to look at our season in perspective & acknowledge the luck we have had & the favourable fixtures, the only really good result being Chelsea. Last week against Swansea the warning signs were back, this week our gutless wonders wore them around their necks....
We will NEVER, EVER win the league again under Wenger. AND, I think this season is going to be like the last one, the title is going to go to the team that has real bottle. And that is not, nor under Wenger, will ever be us.

This....,we've been poor for a lot of the season so far and once our delicate confidence has been bruised the usual will happen, the battle for fourth begins again only this time we approach from a different directionxisstential wrote:Normal service has been resumed...Spurs drop points, we can maybe sit on top after the weekend... cue fear, worry & panic... we are not ready for those heady heights.

adding only 2 seconds for a substitution when the player walks off slowly is dishonest.

Agreed. He couldn't wait to blow the whistle - probably wouldn't have scored anyway but that is one of my pet peeves.
We obviously can't win every game we play but we definitely should be putting bums like them to the sword. Those 2 points could've been crucial come May.

Re: Arsenal vs Middlesbrough
No doubt Wenger will moan about being a leetle bit jaded.
It is a fucking joke.
He could have rested half the team the other night and still won.
It is not about our ability to buy players, it is about how we use them.
We could have £1 billion in the bank, sign Messi and Ronaldo BUT we still wouldn't win the league because he wouldn't know when to rest them.
Days like today are why we are all correct when we say Wenger OUT!
