Has there ever been a more pathetic attempt to win a euro semi-final?.

The first 45 mins we played at testamonial pace.

It's not like Villareal are any good.

Arteta cannot seem to get any sort of tune out of these players. He should do the honorable thing and resign.

Cant shake the feeling that Arteta is trying to play elite level tactics designed for world class players with incredible football intelligence. It just isn't working with what we have.

Desperately poor to go out with such a whimper, 0-0 at home to what is really not a great side - but neither are we.

You can't not turn up for 180 minutes and expect to go through

We're just a terribly frail team. Signings are definitely needed, but it's not a lack of quality on paper that makes us perform like this time and time again against teams who are weaker or on the same level as us. There's no belief in the team, we're playing without any real conviction. I don't see how signings will magically fix that.

We just failed to score a goal from open play in a two-leg European semifinal, nobody can look at these games and say at least the effort was there.

You're right, Haz, the players aren't as bad at this. I just do not undertand how a bunch of largely international footballers can perform with such lethargy, such a lack of intent and such a lack of quality.

Always lacking urgency. And then play desperate football at the end. Sick of Leno with his very slow distribution.

No european football next season basically equates to one game a week. Not great.

Give it a rest. You can’t blame the keeper for drawing 0-0.

Well, we can't blame Xhaka or Ceballos today

First half was bad but we hit the post twice. Slightly unlucky

We just aren’t that good.

People saying we have the quality ? Seriously ? Youngsters who aren’t battle hardened at all, one who was on loan at Huddersfield last year, another on a spring break from Spain.

I thought Pépé and Aubameyang were the only ones likely to do anything and our midfield has little passing capability required to play at the highest level.

Chain smoking habitual loser incoming.

Give it a rest. You can’t blame the keeper for drawing 0-0.

Ghoulish behaviour seemingly enjoying a loss

No tears if Arteta leaves. Higher chance to see Saliba & Balogun playing first team football.
Good riddance to Willian and Ceballos.

Wenger's philosophy was to play on the front foot, take the game to the opposition, play exciting attacking football that gets the fans off their seats and score goals. OK, so he did that to the detriment of the defensive side of the game in his latter years but we have to get back to that attacking ethos.

With no european football there is a chance to completely purge the squad. We need to trim the squad size down hugely by not playing 2 games a week.
Bellerin, Luiz, Ceballos, Elneny, Nketiah, Nelson, AMN, Willock, Kolasinac (he's still our player), Chambers, Ødegaard, Runnarsson, Lacazette, Guendouzi, Torreira, Mavropanos can all go.

Then see who in the squad has the guts to stay and fight to get us back up the table, I could definitely see a few players we might want to stay start to get itchy feet. Then you could easily have some big clubs sniff around the likes of Saka and Martinelli. They regularly pick off mid table prem players.

you never attended the 4-4 game with spurs at home in 2008 did you ? This wouldn't have been posted if you had.

. For the next 5 years which team has a better chance of success Leicester or Arsenal?

Not sure I understand your point?

Out with hardly a whimper, let alone a bang.

Not sure where we go from here.

I’m usually a very optimistic person, but I’m struggling to see a bright future here.

Back to the mid 70s and 80s is the next few years I think.
