That's wot makes this board so hilarious ....stupid fans like samir thinking they know better than their manager.

It was more our own mistakes rather than your performance which led to you getting gifted an undeserved draw.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

Really yet the only goal you scored came direct from one of our mistakes? How odd

Not saying I do know more than him. However Wenger's made questionable decisions in the past and it has cost us points. He's done it again today.

Just because he's a professional, doesn't mean he's right all the time. In fact, his stubbornness and purist ideology are key factors as to why we are stagnating.

We had 77% of the ball in the second half. Our profligacy is what led to us drawing the game. If you honestly think you deserved a point from that game having been outplayed for most of it, then you were watching a different game to everyone else.

While few would claim to know more than Wenger, his tactics are certainly questionable. His obsession with cramming 4 midfielders into a 4-1-4-1 system has flopped this season, but he seems to have learnt no lessons. And the decision to drop Alexis has to be the weirdest thing he has done this season.

and thats why we deserved to draw because with all your 77% you created virtually eff all

Dont be fooled by stats 66% of that was probably in your own half and believe it or not that hurts nobody. Unless of course Eriksen catches somebody in possession

We deserved the point as we scored as many goals as you!!

In fact you could say we deserved it more as we had less of the ball than you and done the same with it

You scored from your only meaningful threat on our goal and then tried to waste time and defend in numbers for the rest of the game. Well done.

Let's hope you lot show more ambition in the reverse fixture.

why do I always get stuck with the whiners?

I wish somebody would educate these idiots that there are no points or goals from possesion stats ffs.

Yet another 15 year old that wants the result decided by an excel spreadsheet

Possession may be nine tenths of the law.
But putting the ball in the net is 100% of the score.

To Samir .... reason you did not win today, even with Wenger's bad tactics (in your opinion), is that we were incredibly lucky.
Wenger's tactics should have had you up 0-2 by halftime. Nothing wrong with his tactics, IMO.

Since when did scoring more/same amount of goals mean you've outplayed your opponent? I can think of numerous occasions when teams have undeservedly taken points from games on the balance of play.

Thankfully you can count yourselves lucky that in football you don't get points for performances. Cos I doubt you'd have got any.

There's only one stat that matters in football and that's goals

We created 3 very good opportunites late in the first half and at least one shoud have been taken... but we have not been moaning about that.

If the score was decided by performances then it would have been 0-0 so we would still have got a point

Anybody that has 77% possesion and can only score once is crap for sure

--------------------------------------------

That's actually untrue. We certainly dominated both possession AND territory. We weren't just passing it around our back. We just lacked a bit of sharpness and extra quality upfront.

TBF you are 'debating' with a citizen of the land of the STAT.
Good luck with that.

Really? Leaving our top goalscorer on the bench? Playing Ozil left after his tremendous performance against Villa in the middle? (Even though he had a good game, I don't think he was as effective as he could have been). Playing at a slow tempo without much pressing from our front line?

In my opinion, Wenger has not drilled our players properly and his tactics and team selection weren't good enough.

Maybe the players should have done a little more, but the manager is responsible for his players.

No you lacked ANY quality up front and if you had any you would sell it to utd anyway

He cant go around drilling players that has to be illegal or something surely?

Oh well I wont judge each to their own I suppose

Wow. I can't believe how chuffed you are with one point against us. Did the DVD come out earlier than normal?

You do understand you didn't win the game, don't you?

posted on 27/9/14

Anyway I have knocked up a quick spreadsheet taking into account possesion, falling over injured and acting like a girl, whining and moaning by both manager and supporters, bleating about team selection, overating the players in a squad and the result has been amended we now won 3-0 and thats official

"Wow. I can't believe how chuffed you are with one point against us."

I can't believe how deluded you are that such a mediocre performance by the G00ns would earn 3 pts.
