Just how bad are Arsenal?

The only one of their players I would have at Spurs is Aubameyang, which tells us how far ahead we have gone.

They only won the NLD at the Degenerates because our players had a tough mid week game and were more fatigued.

They can’t even afford to buy any players, it could get a lot worse.

Defence is absolutely shocking and will cost a lot of money to get right and the midfield is devoid of any creativity what so ever.

Aubameyang should move to Chelsea.. dunno why he chose to go to Arsenal, utterly bizarre move that was.

Proper one man team

What is this I'm hearing about the club saying they have no transfer funds?

They have the most expensive tickets in the league.

Still find it hilarious the way they celebrated the North London derby win. All the players tweeting “north London is red” to try and get with the fans pathetic!!! Certainly not red now is it

You only have to look at the laugh at Arsenal thread below, years ago it would of had a lot of comments but people can’t even be bothered to laugh at them anymore.
6 weeks ago we had a influx of Arsenal fans back on our board but they’re missing in action again 😂

Owners that won’t spend money on new players to improve a really poor squad, particularly defensively.
No CL to offer new players and little sign of that changing, so few of the top players are interested in signing.

New manager that is struggling to get the best out of a number of current group and playing out of position. Signings he has made have already have not improved the group from last season hence owners less confident in giving more money.

Poor players on undeserved big wage contracts, experienced players likely to leave soon on a free.

Their club is a real mess at the moment.

To be fair they're only about 7 months into the first season with a new manager. Things are not going to change instantly. They had/have a poor squad and too many issues with wages and contracts, with so many players over the past few years running contracts down. This will all take time to change.

I wouldn't say they've definitely regressed. They were ahead on points compared to last season not so long ago and I would give them a decent chance of winning Europa. If anything they are no worse at least so far.

They are playing far worse this season than last season. Allowing tons more shots and shooting far less.

Yet have won more games than they did at this stage

I watched the game last night, and it occured to me that West Spammers might soon be more of a rival side, in other words the second best team in London than Arsenal.

It's staggered belief that I saw Wrighty on MOTD and he was asked about what's happening at Arsenal, where they don't play a £300k a week player at all - not even on the bench, and yet Wrighty just shrugged his shoulders?

That club has gone down quicker than you can say "sink"!

So far, it speaks volume of Wenger that he "made" them look decent at all

Arsenal are in genuine danger of becoming a bona fide mid-table club. Don't have the players nor (for some reason) the resources to keep them amongst the top.

Rival fans and even some of our own supporters seem confused as to why we have no money.

This is the reason:

The defence is pub standard
The midfield is not creative
The forwards are ok but dont help out enough at the back.
They have a player on £350k per week who fails to make the bench v West Ham.
It is tactical. Are you having a laugh?.
finally a chairman who doesnt give a t0ss.
Charging the highest prices just to see the likes of Guendozi the pound shop David Luiz in midfield.
Charging Harrrods prices and displaying Poundland contents

Keep saying staggering...But honestly I can't find any other words to describe a club where management, I don't car who whether the manager or the owners, have allowed this to happen?

So they bought 5 players and increased Ozil's salary by £240k week and that has pushed them into the threshold imposed by the fair play rule of 7% every year?

Is there an accountant at that club? Someone who give have told them what would happen if they increased wages like that and bought every average foreigner?

My word! And now they can't offer Ramsey who is a quality player a new contract that he wants?

The club had its balls tightly held by Ozil and player agents. Not good.

Twist the knife, why don't you? How's your argument helping?

It's a sad state of affair and I don't want that at Spurs - so we better learn from this.

If you can't sign anybody due to wages, then how can you loan players? I assume you pay wages to players you loan?

Just how bad have they gotten in the last 6 weeks or so? Bizarrely, the decline seems to have followed them beating us in the league.

-----

yeah it was their cup final. which they won. they have now achieved their season objective, so are coasting through the rest of it
