The only club he played for that I have any affinity with is Rangers. But it's sad to hear Ray Wilkins is fighting for his life after a heart attack.

For those who don't like 10 yard sideways passes, count yourself lucky he wasn't playing when Wenger moved Arsenal towards a possession game. Wenger would have broken the bank to get him.

Definitely Wenger. Warner is already out. As I'm sure you're aware he did his obligatory weeping apology earlier.

I've mentioned before, when the Pakistani fans were celebrating a wicket their team had taken in a limited overs game, probably a couple or so years ago now, they had a 'Wenger out' banner.

Perhaps for some reason our interest in Arsenal has waned this season. I would think there has been more posts about the cricket than Arsenal in the last 2 weeks.

I see Man City players were all tired after the international break and just scraped a win.

We should get 3 or 4 tonight. So it all depends on our defence whether that is enough goals to pick up a win

Yes. Well we're playing Stoke in matter of hours and the excitement is building :sad5: .
I can see the forum is at fever pitch. I wonder what combination of overpaid underperforming millionaires our fuhrer will select today?
Burnley won again and are hot on our heels for 6th - what a success story they are. A historic club too it is nice to see them do so well.

Should we win today we will close the gap to 33 points to Man City and 17 points away from second placed Man U. Now at the beginning of the season I was hoping we would at least challenge until around April. I am probably going to class this season as a failure although I am sure Wenger still thinks we have had a good season.

I still don't understand why people are not excited about the Stoke game. We can help send them down. 3-0 to us.

This is the first time under Wenger we're not even challenging for top 4, let alone the title. Would be nice to see Stoke relegated though.

LA Galaxy down 3-0, Zlatan subs on and scores the last 2 goals to win it 4-3, the first goal truly world class from distance.

Henry coaching with Martinez and Belgium.

A nice pairing for us but have they proved themselves?

Ospina, Bellerin, Chambers, Mustafi, Monreal, Elneny, Wilshere, Ramsey, Özil, Welbeck, Aubameyang

Subs: Macey, Koscielny, Kolasinac, Xhaka, Iwobi, Mkhitaryan,

Čech out with a groin injury. Protecting a few ahead of the European tie. Shame not to see some of the younger players on the bench. The end of season prem games should be used to give them experience.

Also looks like Bellerin is going to be asked to patrol the entire right flank on his own again. I can’t remever the last time we put out a team that had 11 round pegs in 11 round holes and looked well balanced across the pitch

Can't complain. We start without Xhaka but so many changes is ridiculous.

Expect us to struggle in the first half and not confident we will come away with a point let alone a win. Unless Stoke are dire we are in for a tonking..............

Both teams so low on quality. Arsenal struggling to play even the most basic of passes. Özil, Wilshere, ramsey and Aubameyang haven’t had a touch

Stoke have conceded the most goals in the league and I don’t think we’ve had a touch in their box let alone a shot. He tempo is awful and once again we struggle to pass he ball out from the back against even a weak high press

I can’t believe that wenger is so blind that he doesn’t look around at this sort of performance and the thousands of empty seats in the crowd and doesn’t think ‘this is what I’ve done’

This is woeful. So many simple passes so badly played. 2nd to every second ball, no tempo. Not many players not playing today make the Europa team, very worrying.

This squad needs a new manager desperately, I’m not convinced a new manager suddenly turns this group around. Huge changes in playing personnel required as well.

Every time we have the ballot the back each player is passing it to the next man who is under more pressure than the one who passed it to him and that keeps going to the next man until someone panics and gives it away.

Crowd are not happy. Booing when arsenal go backwards

Arsenal are so dull and dire to watch. Crowd silent. This team looks like a bottom half prem side. Wenger has ripped the heart out of it. Even if he goes this summer this will take years to fix.

Elneny the worst culprit

Until 3 years ago it wasn't Wenger's brand. Even when we weren't very good we still played good attacking football.

Exactly, in the years gone by I’ve seen us play teams like stoke and pass them off the pitch, creating chance after chance but going on to draw or lose thanks to set pieces and poor finishing - god those times were frustrating but I yearn for them now.

Weirdly, teams that know they aren’t good or aren’t creative just go a bit more direct and make danger that way. Wenger is too arrogant so insists on the possession and eye of the needle build up which we can’t do, we won’t revert to anything else so we create even less than relegation threatened sides.

When oh when can we get our club back. I can’t bear the thought of wenger for another season! People will walk away from the stadium in their droves. Does any team anywhere in the top leagues go in to a new season with such apathy and negativity? The new season is always the point of optimism for every team apart from us

I wish we would stop putting the ball out for injuries to them. It’s up to the ref to stop the game. We just play in to these teams hands by breaking up the game.

The amount of arsenal players who show no effort to win the ball back once they’ve won it. Can’t decide is that is more of a stain on their character or the managers for letting them continuously do it

Özil flagged offside, knew he was off and didn’t want the ball played to him. But, he didn’t touch the ball. I thought the lino can’t flag until the player touches it?
