Simple as.
Every single one of those goals could have been avoided. The players were not up to it. Wenger's fault was playing Chamberlain were he should have played Flamini. I feel the players let us down, they did not man up get in their faces, they gave the ball away cheaply, they did not press them they did not track back they basically threw away the title by throwing away the basics. Chamberlain the handball really? I have never seen such atrocious play in the field. It was an eye sore.
We were supposed to sit back. At some stage we were doing the high line that cost us at Anfield and at WHL last year.What the fudge?
Thank you Arsene for 1000 matches not all have been a joy to watch but you made me proud to be a gunner. No doubt he loves the club but what is going on? I dont know who can replace him but we know he will renew his contract and when he does he needs to take some one young fresh and full of ideas and tactically aware under his wing, show him the ropes. Yes he is to blame and some say he doesnt motivate the players anymore but if I was in that squad knowing that we got a game in hand and we got a chance to reduce that gap and not play like it was for my life (which it should be) then I do not deserve to wear that shirt.

Wenger doesn't really care too much about the truth of a situation; he sees what he wants and basically says "fúck it" to the consequences, hence why we have AOC playing centre midfield in a game he himself described as our biggest of the season and why we made not a single notable or needed acquisition in January.
He's been like this for years and to expect him to change now is asking for a miracle. It's like he perceives actually respecting and planning for opposition strengths and making allowances for those is a slight against his philosphy and an affront of his footballing credo, when that couldn't be further from the truth; it's fúcking football management! Not just new age football management, but one of its basic foundations. That he's been able to get away with it for years based around the talent of the players, says as much about their ability (it's always their fault in defeat, but never their win in victory) as it does this seemingly wonderful job Wenger's managed to do in the eyes of his harem.

Playing the high defensive line was the wrong tactic, persevering with it through the game was bad management.
Flamini should have started.

Wenger deemed it our most important game of the season & we performed like that.
Trust me, this team is weak mentally, the Wigan game is a 50/50

Chelsea's midfield were far more athletic than ours, we were just bullied out there, they just walked past our midfield like they were not there
