THE MIDDLESEX SWAMP DWELLERS AWAY THREAD

[Natural Born Gooner]

Mason should have been given a yellow with his challenge on Ozil. Not giving it then carding our players quickly after for innocuous challenges just allowed them to get in our faces more. And he'd have got a second yellow in for blocking the FK.

Not saying that's the cause of our defeat but it certainly contributed to it!

Agreed. As awful as we were it was borderline cheating by the ref at times. Couldn't wait to chuck cards at our players and let some of them get away with loads, Mason especially but also that dreadful tackle on Giroud by Rose.

Said the ref played as badly as we did and tht they deserved to win basic ally

[clockender1]

Coq needed help far to often his team mates were well ahead of him, or in Ramsey's case couldn't find a pass. He cannot hold midfield on his own.

.

this.

akb or wob, we've all known all season that we need TWO quality CDM's. one doesn't cut it.

i'll also repeat what i've said all season - together, kos and per are not good enough. not enough pace, careless, leave their men and get caught out of position. one of them could play alongside a quality CB and get by - and be bailed out. but one of therm makes a mistake every single game

[mcdowell42]

He should give Gabriel a game tues night but reckon more than likely it will be game against Boro .

[defleppardisking]

Wenger blame everything and everyone except himself.

[clockender1]

wenger - "they dominated the middle".

and what did he do about that ?

nothing.

The love fest on BT today about all things Scum related was ridiculous. From Leo Kane to the Berna Swamp Lane being missed because it has fantastic atmosphere and Arrigo Pochecnuto

You can't have the likes of Giroud Welbeck Ozil and Cazorla all starting away from home (against a decent side) and offer so little on the counter attack.

It improved a bit when Rosicky came on but after being played off the park for 70 minutes with all the momentum against us it was too late.

How can he have been sitting there after 50, 55, 60, 65 mins thinking that there is literally nothing that needs changing.

You could have started in the 20th minute. Wenger out. We beat Leicester, Boro, Palace & Monaco.....all is just good enough. Rinse. Repeat

[mattyb]

Wellbeck was poor ...thomas should have been on from the start. .

wenger hasn't a clue. .everyone could see the gap left for rose to exploit which he did...wenger chose to do nothing about it. .*word censored*...

[markyp]

we are in dire shit now,saints have won again and just don't look like stopping,this is gonna be a roller coaster for fourth,if we get it it will be Wenkers greatest ever achievement considering the financial powerhouses of saints and spuds who are both in good positions,we simply don't have the players or the money to compete,oh hang on ,ITS THE FARKIN MANAGER,WENGER OUT!!!

[markyp]
