Where do they find these refs?

Did any English team win in Europe this week?

How embarassing.............

Another cracking evening’s entertainment.

I’m sure that we’ll have another week where various players tell us that they’re going to do better from now on. Words.

Xhaka laughing and joking with the opposition.

Sack them both...............

Spurs.

This is simply Abysmal just abysmal.

They have to change this now.

Let Mertesacker and Freddie take charge till the summer. Find your Best 11 and stick with it.

Dire.

Longest run without a win since 1992.

So utterly bored of this football club.

There needs to be some honesty from those at the top. If they won’t sack emery then come out and tell us truthfully the level of ambition. If the club are happy being midtable because the bottom line is still ok then tell us. They’ll soon find an empty stadium and less money coming through the turnstiles, in sponsors etc. Sadly as long as the club stays in the prem the tv money alone will probably be enough for Kronke to not be bothered by it at all.

What a pile of shite. Xhaka should never play for us again and Emery is plumbing new depths.

Roll on Sack Friday.

Just seen a headline from a Norwich player “we can’t underestimate Arsenal’ hahaha that is what we’ve become.

Thank you Frankfurt.

I had to head off to work. I can’t believe that

Indeed. I think that's it. There's no way back and Freddie can take charge for the Norwich game.

I find the Pépé situation bizarre. He takes his time finding form, then gets two great late goals to be ‘the star man’ a huge confidence boost and Emery doesn’t pick him in any game since

The big Black Friday sales are here. Not sure if you have them in the UK but most things are discounted. Maybe there is a discount manager out there.

It’s ludicrous, he should be starting every week. However it’s just one of many daft situations

Xhaka at the end after another horrid performance

*%^@*** dreadful. Sack him tonight. Do not wait until tomorrow. Drive him to Colney and throw his stuff in a binbag. I do not want him anywhere near our club tomorrow.

As Trump watchers have discovered, rock bottom has a basement...

In american sports, correct me if I'm wrong, once you've blown your chance and you're having 'losing season' you juts try to lose and so get a higher pick in the draft next year. I just don't think Kroenke as an owner of american sports franchises can frankly see what the fuss is about. You have a losing season, no matter how early it starts, and then you regroup. There is no one to replace you.

Exactly.

I think it’s hard to find or think of a team that plays with less heart than Arsenal, particularly of confidence is low and we go behind. They completely give up. How can anyone who genuinely cares about Arsenal find this acceptable.

They will simply not sack him though.

Emery saying that he left Xhaka on because Xhaka wanted to.

Ok that’s fine then it’s not it isn’t his decision

One more wretched performance from Xhaka en voila ! Don’t underestimate the improvement we will see when he’s gone. Talk about proving everyone right, for my money the worst major arsenal signing of all time

Disappointed but we are still ahead in the table. As I said when Wenger was in charge as now with Emery. Getting rid of either doesn't negate the fact that we are rotten at the top. Kroenke is the problem once you peel back the layers.
And we are stuck with him. That's why I am resigned about us and the future. What's the point. Years ago I said, if we win trophies is despite not because of Kroenke and I am more right now than ever.
I warned years ago, the board should not have backed someone who does not know the sport, does not know and love the club because at the end of the day, every club that has continuing success loved the sport as well as the club.
This is the same man who took a team from his home state at a time they needed it. Let that sink in
Emery leaving won't solve our problem. Even if we get the manager we want by consensus there will come a time where we will need money to go the next level and Kroenke will make a business decision not to.
All owners will have to make that decision at some point in order to win things and build a foundation. They will have to spend more than you really should using their heart instead of listening to the accountants.

I write something , then delete it , write some other really clever in depth solution delete that , then answer someone Emery , Özil , Xhaka , the board all get a mention
clever words , flowing prose
..... then I think ... why bother Emery , the board , 85 % of the players please , please , please don weightbelts and drop yourselves into the Mariana Trench

We’re about to find out if Raul is a blagger or not. I have a feeling he’s part of the problem.

Emery: 'I am thinking about the next match [Norwich]. We improved today but it wasn't enough.'

I mean... that's quite a trek... But I can definitely see you leading that particular expedition with Captain Scott levels of steadfastness and fortitude

No, you're taking the piss.. What?!

Keown saying Emery ‘has taken the team as far as he can’ that statement implies forward momentum of some kind. Technically there is a lot further emery can take us backwards

Let Emery fly home from Frankfurt with the team, say his farewells and then let him go. Should be landing in London soon. If the news tomorrow is anything but "Emery sacked" then Arsenal are deservedly a joke.

I would have cancelled his ticket.
Do you think they might be waiting for Wrighty to come out of the jungle to team up with Bergkamph for the rest of the season. Bergy is my pick for the rest of the season as manager. There are worse suggestions in the media.

What a disaster

Er? They were in London all evening. In body if not in spirit.

I really do despair at the state of the club. right from top to bottom we’re a total mess and we have been for 10 years.

The players are not trying, they’re playing to get the manager sacked. We’ve seen this from many teams in the past. My issue is I’m not sure the players can ‘turn it on’ for any new manager. Too many of them have been on easy street for too long. Too many of them are simply not good enough and show no signs of improving.

I find it embarrassing that over the last 10 years there hasn’t been a single sustained period of football where as a fan I’ve felt my team were playing with 100% commitment, effort and desire. Yes the odd game but not sustained.

Lol thanks LTG. They were indeed. My revised plans are to fly him one way to Frankfurt then sack him.

I think this squad has the talent to get top 4 at a canter. With some proper management of course. Will be hard work now though.

The club made a decision to implement a European model with technical directors under a wizard of oz type owner ratifying the decisions. It suits Kroenke down to the ground but leaves you open to issues if you get someone who attains too much power.

I don’t think you can blame Raul too much. Apparently he didn’t want Emery and wanted Enrique anyway and I’m not sure I can find it in myself to criticise the recent signings who apart from Ceballos and maybe Luiz have been pretty decent.

Like I said yesterday though. There is a strong element that the people running arsenal are not as good as we used to have. Dein and hill wood would never have recruited Emery.

The board should hang there heads in shame and I don’t trust them to get the right replacement in but I think most of our problems lie on the pitch.

This team needs several players but we are are desperate for a midfield player who can get on the ball and dictate play. A 28 year old Santi if you like. Maybe Isco in the summer but somebody’s required as Xhaka and Guendouzi were appalling last night. We simplying aren’t distributing the ball, moving it quickly, zero one touch.

Paired with the managers inexplicable crazy decisions and negative brand of football it makes for a disaster.

I saw someone suggesting we sack Emery and get someone like Benitez or hiddink in to steady the ship, this also might make sense.
