Arsenal V Blackburn | FA Cup 16/02/2013

Why didn't i see anyone saying Arshavin should start before the game?

If people want to have a dig at the lineup and who should rather start , please do it before the match instead of trying to look like an all knowing genius after the fact.

Saying he should have started after the loss , but saying nothing pre match is hypocrisy of the highest order.

[Arsenal Tone]

That line up should have been able to get a result against a championship side.

[Miss Arsenal]

I was too busy banging my head against the wall at the final whistle to notice the boos! Jesus H Christ, they were loud!

Wenger referred to the fans booing the side off as "normal". He has become used to our mediocrity.

Agreed. For all we know Arshavin would have done f**k all today

I dunno if this has been mentioned already...But i games like these where the opposition defend deep, we really missed Gibbs...Nacho isnt very good going forward...But he's just come in...so i guess we can cut him some slack...

Gibbs really does add that extra support up front...Pity he isnt solid enough at the back

That makes no sense....

Anger venting for me would be directed at our front 3. Giroud was useless, Ox not much better, and Gerv missed the sitter of the match. Dreadful.

[navdeep_singh]

He was not. He should have started, plain and simple. Surely, he wouldn't be worse than most players who did start.

You got it the other way around. Gervinho proved to be every bit as bad as AA23.

[Gunflash]

Wenger never learns, does he? Yet again he rested players and threw away a competition we could win, in exchange for a competition we have no chance of winning.

[prolific]

f***ing shit result! Piss poor performance. I don't mind the resting of players, I was kind of happy tbh. Minus Gervinho the squad was more than able to win. Not scapegoat'ing Gervinho just saying there was 10 decent players on the pitch. Anyway bullshit departure from the comp which was as mentioned achievable silverware success

[VCC]

All or nothing for the CL

[FourSix]

Unless you were complaining about resting players before the game you're making yourself look a clown by blaming Wenger for it after the game. He rested players like most people wanted and when it wasn't going well he brought on Wilshere, Walcott & Santi. I don't see at what point you blame Wenger for it not going right.

Who are you responding to exactly?

[FourSix]

Don't worry it wasn't you specifically.

Just to the tiresome "Wenger Out" crowd.
