How’s that unbeaten run going chaps?

posted on 16/12/18

Very disappointing. Every ground we struggle in no matter how bad the team are we always fail to win these games. Top 4 hopes dealt a major blow there. Especially considering the fact Spurs are not dropping any points against sides outside top 6 apart from Watford but that was when Watford were flying.

The Emery honeymoon is over. That was facking abysmal. Dreadful.
And there is no way Leno is better than Cech. He was the king of errors in the Bundesliga and we were warned. We are seeing why. He's a mediocre keeper.

The run was going to come to an end sooner or later. But it’s the way it’s come. Leno is poor. Good at saves and with the ball at his feet but on crossings he’s abysmal. Get rid for next season if we are to challenge for title.

Defensively we are unlucky with injuries. That’s a big part of today’s result. I’m not worried. The last 21/22 games before this we got some good results and performances in.

Not even half way through season yet, so no point in saying we’re not gonna make CL. I have every bit of Confidence in Emery to get us top 4 or EL trophy.

Every sheet team on a bad run picks up points when they play Arsenal.

Unbeaten run was always going to end sometime soon. So not bothered about that. I just don’t want to see us lose like that again this season. Hope that proves to the club how badly we need signings to keep us in touch with top 4

Emery needs to take the blame for that. The starting XI was a joke to begin with and he didn’t react to Koscielny having an absolute stinker in the first half. Southampton were always going to target him and they did. Even bringing Elneny on at Ht would have been an improvement, he does have some experience of playing there before. But Kos quite clearly wasn’t ready.

I’ve said countless times that we will pay the price for crap first halves and we have today. We never maximise the full 90 minutes.

Even tho we lost, a draw was never going to be enough. A win was needed today and we just didn’t turn up at all. Of course the defensive crisis played a huge part in the defeat, but players all over the pitch weren’t doing their part to defend properly. How much space were we giving their attacking players ffs?

Gwendouzi has been terrible

Yeah that's very harsh.

I think he was. He was very poor going forward, he had awful shoot and was very sloppy. We should have taken him off instead of Iwovi.

Emery gets his way substitutions right most times and he does get credit for it. Today he got it abysmally wrong and should take the blame for this loss.

Wrong team set up from the onset and wrong substitutions. Despite his flaws, Iwobi offers more for this team.

Bad team selection from Emery but he'll quickly learn. Expecting Koscielny never to play for Arsenal again.

He made numerous key interceptions and brilliant passes. He made a few errors but so did everyone else. Not sure you were watching the same game. Iwobi was rightly taken off. It just wasn't our day, we paid for defensive errors. The main culprit was Kosc but we had to keep him on.

Injuries didn’t help today. Like Ramsey probably would have come on if litch didn’t get injured.

Don't mind Gunth. His new crush is Xhaka so he has to attack the competition.

Not sure you were watching either.

Arsenal's first goal was initiated by Iwobi. And just right before being taken off, he also created a good moment. He gets a lot of stick due to his inconsistency but I'd rather keep him on 'cause any of those good moments can result in a goal for Arsenal.

Can’t blame Emery. It’s a Wenger team struggling to lose their lossers mentality. Will take time to get rid of it.
