Oh dear - out of the CL again in the last 16.
We've got 3 more games to play, so some revenue I guess.

I'm telling you and this isn't just down to bias, this is down to evidence of how we started this season with Walcott / Sanchez / Ozil / Iwobi with Sanchez up front compared to when Giroud is our starting ST.

Forget the hate just plain results / how we play.

Giroud changes our style of play, he is not compatible with our free flowing, pacey game we were enjoying so much from Sanchez with Ozil and Walcott.

This is why I get so p*ssed off, we have these players and Wenger changed sh*t up just because Giroud made some good sub appearances in the last 10mins nicking us vital goals.

The difference is we are in full hail mary mode in the last 10mins of a game we're not winning, launching balls over the top which is great for Giroud, but nobody plays that way for 90mins.

We need to go back to Sanchez starting with Ozil and Walcott again, we were so good with that offense.

players have dip in forms here and there. Those 4 aint going to play to their best every game so it makes sense to bring someone who is doing good. iwobi has looked shit recently n sanchez a bit ponderous at times lately, with walcott going back to being useless for another 10 games since his last purple patch. It was good time to bring giroud back.

shame bellerin is missing, jenks aint great attacking n we rly missed him bombing down the right

Our midfield was a pale imitation of theirs .... end of story .... we have god knows how many midfield players on our books but it still looks as if we don't have 4/5 who can play together ... what the feck do we do in training? or is it because our players are always away playing in different systems and our 'let them do their thing' approach just doesn't work?

Just not Championship material we are.There is no one in the team who can produce some Magic and get us a goal from somewhere.Same Problem as last year,we fail to create anything.We bottle in the final 3rd.Without Santi,Ozil has to do all the work.Ramsey is slow and takes too much time to make a pass.Pretty predictable.Dont know why Ramsey is in without proving himself this season.Wenger is not right here.

Alexis shouldnt have played.Clearly Tired and lacked Ideas.Why not play Chambo there and bring him on at 60 minutes.

Bad Tactics by Wenger all together.Iwobi has been shit last 4 games.He is on a downside.The Guy has no clue what to do in the final third right now.Always messing it up.

We had no creativity in our midfield what so ever, boys against men, they were raped, clueless is the word that springs to mind.

Pathetic that people say he's too slow yet Motta is balling in PSG's midfield who is even slower ffs



That's the difference of a 3 man midfield

Iwobi shouldnt start any big games.

He is nowhere near ready.

Is there anything more typical than us suffering because of the away goals rule? :D
