Don't know what to say.
Not a terrible performance, however, so predictable that we would lose. Our defence looks as shaky as ever and we always look likely to concede.
Partey, Elneny, Odegaard, Auba are terrible.
Tavares likes to give the ball away too much and cannot cross the ball.
The plusses, Martinelli, ESR, Tommy.
Arteta undone by a bigger Rookie than himself.

Kind of predictable. I thought the best we could hope for was a draw and I was proven right unfortunately. I thought we started the game well and were the better team for the first half hour, then we resorted into conceeding posession and inviting pressure, we aren't good enough to do this against half decent teams, I don't know why we do it!

Second half was messy and a bit chaotic...how I thought it was going to be from the off.

I am not angry, just resigned to the fact we haven't really made a lot of obvious progress. If anything i see clear flaws in the team now that weren't so evident last season, it's likely because we have a manager who isn't good enough, I dunno.

We need to freshen things up for Monday against Everton but I see a loss there too now...they have some half decent players and will want to get back to winning ways so it's written in the stars.

Predictable. Not much more to say.

Some work experience coach gets the one and only 3 points of his career against us. Classic Arsenal.

LOL, they lost. What a surprise. I watched the first half because I was fed up listening to shit about Covid. Turns out reading the Guardian is actually more entertaining than watching Arsenal, which is obviously impossible yet somehow Arsenal achieves it.

I wish this bunch of imposter fucks would go away and let us enjoy the memories.

I'm thinking the Utd fans feel the same way. The ones who haven't just been shat out of woke school, at least.

Man Utd vs Arsenal - those were the days.

Long gone.

Replaced by... whatever that shit was.

NQ WTF does this have to do with losing to a struggling Man U and having a mediocre manager??

Using racist epithets for everyone is still being racist- stop trying to be clever by half on this.

Honestly, WTF does this have to do with the predictable rubbish we witnessed yesterday?

I doubted anything could get me more pissed off than the predictable result... well done!

One thing I will say is that we didn't fall apart at 3-2, we did keep going and tried to get something. But we do struggle to create clear chances and Auba increasingly fluffs his lines. It wasn't a disaster of a performance but it was a chance to get a result to make a statement and move in to the top 4 so of course we lost. The key thing, like after the Liverpool game, is how we react. Everton are there for the taking but we are notoriously generous in such situations.
Still Arteta In for me, but I want to see how we do in the next month where we have some banana skins. I still think that after the top 3 we are as good as anyone, but I'm not sure what progress there has been, if any

By the way, it's quite damning about the quality of this league - or rather the unequal balance of it - that no-one outside the top 4 has a positive goal difference.

The bar is low enough this year for us to finish 4th. However when opportunities like this present themselves we usually find a way to ensure we fall short.

Auba is a waste of space up front on his own, he can’t hold the ball up and doesn’t have the energy to press. He needs to play with Lacazette so he can just focus on doing what he can do well and that’s be on the end of an attack.

Not sure why Tavares is getting the nod ahead of Tierney, he’s nowhere near as good.

Also bringing on Eddie when he rejected a contract was weird. Bit of insult to Pepe who while being unpredictable is a lot more capable of making something happen.

Arteta got it completely wrong last night.

We will not finish 4th and TBH I'm not sure I want us to even make Europe, which seems to be the only way to force the clowns at the top to do the right thing and go with an experienced coach.

Man U will only improve when the German maestro gets his hands on them and Spurs will finish above us again with Conte at the helm.

I hate the predictable rut we find ourselves in, we always know our fate in December....and this was all avoidable if we had the balls to do the right thing and end this shitty experiment.

BTW what would be the use of getting into Europe, when its clear we have a coach who can't beat any decent opposition? It's like the final years of AW all over again (without the pretense of attractive football of course).

Obviously you can only really judge a season at it's end, but just comparing last year's start to this.

Last year: W4 D2 L8 F12 A18 Pts 14
This: W7 D2 L5 F17 A20 Pts 23

So...has there been progress? Honestly, I'm not sure. I guess we'll know for sure in May. But I'm not going to jump back on the Arteta Out bandwaggon just yet.

It's about the race driven political statement made at the start of the first match (half match) I have watched in months. It definitely made me have a reaction and this is the match reaction thread. Watching, literally, a group of all races, colours and creeds kneel before Lord Woke to condemn racism from the least racist country on the planet that has changed it's culture, language, laws and habits to a ridiculous degree in abject appeasement? Everyone should react to that appalling accusation.

As for the half match itself, that kind of faded into the background and burred away, like the insidious political messaging probably does for people who see it twice a week.

But, the mods can edit or delete the post in question, if they want. I made my point. The point wasn't to upset other people, it was to convey how pissed I am at being called a racist all the time by an ultra privileged and wealthy united colours of Benetton who then can't even be bothered to earn the cash they have extracted from the said, supposedly racist, great unwashed.

Right now, 4th place is probably between Manure and the Scum.

Absolutely no way we can get 4th. United will get the results they need now under prober management. Spuds will continue to win ugly and West Ham as we have seen can get a result against top 5 which we simply cannot. Arteta couldnt coach a Terrier to fetch a stick. He has become Wenger Mk 2, buying players he likes rather than the players he needs. Spending scarce funds on defence when midfield and attack are our biggest issues. We will finish either 7th or 8th.

All of this, tbf Tavares looks a good signing but is a bit raw, can't work out what's happening with Tierney unless he's not kowtowing to the boss enough so he's in Arteta's bad books

That would be bad news if he's Arteta's latest target for his 'do 't forget who's the big boss' routine - we'll know it when he goes out on loan in January...

No, it draws attention and adds emphasis to the most pertinent words. Think, understand, ignorant. But if I just typed those words we wouldn't know for certain I was talking about you. So I had to add some context around them. Hence the end format of the post. No, I probably won't keep it coming because you run a mile from substance and chuck baby gurgles over your shoulder. So no benefit to either party in engaging. I'll simply summarise by restating you are the guy taking the meds, just the fact.

You do come on here to lie, not about me, but in an attempt to spare your own embarrassment at the failure of your self publicised "wit". Upon making yourself look like a cunt you then started that virtuous break dancing - Oh No! You were OFFENDED!!!!!

Funny thing is, it wasn't even the painfully accurate (hence the mock offence) post you now refer to that you originally responded to. It was my follow-up post that was saying okay, if people can't see the obvious point being made then delete the fucker and keep them all in their prams. That's when you broke all your teeth with the meds comment.

Then you feigned boredom as you tried to rise above the shit pile of your own making. I suggested avoiding kicking yourself in the gob if you found it so boring. Now here we are, with you lecturing me about something or another, or maybe chucking a little hint my way about why you lot can resort to if you can't win the Internet.

Btw, none of this could ever happen if Arsenal FC didn't allow political statements to be made on the pitch before every game. I believe my post advised those pampered pricks to shut their holes, give it a rest calling everyone racist and actually play some sport. But it seems they are incapable of any of that, as I see most of you moaning about in other threads. Maybe woke and sport don't mix after all.

You proceeded by saying “Well the post should be taken down if it’s offensive”. Do you think if you racially abused someone in the street and everybody keeps quiet that makes it ok?

I should know better than to engage on this, but...

Is "taking the knee" really calling everyone racist? Isn't it just a recognition that racism is still a thing and that it would be nice if it wasn't?
The issue of racism has certainly got better in my lifetime, when I was a kid racial slurs and jokes were common.
But just because it has got better that doesn't mean the problem has solved and nothing more needs doing. I don't think players continuing to highlight that does much harm. But it would be nice if they could kick a football too of course.

Letters this isn’t aimed at you, but speaking as a man of colour it really is quite galling when people who aren’t in the position of me or other BME people comment on racist issues telling us everything is fine now. I can only speak from experience, from having had to deal with daily experiences of racism from the Police and on occasion people in the public.

The main gist behind taking the knee in football hasn’t been dreamt up out of nowhere, many BME players have been racially abused in games and on social media over the past few years, it’s a big problem and need stamping out. If taking the knee is one way of expressing the dissatisfaction then so be it. Honestly it is not nice being abused racially or prejudiced merely because you have different colour skin!

I have an issue with NQ’s views because not only are they ignorant, but he talks as if he understands what a BME goes through, he has no fuckin idea and it’s ignorant of him to assume otherwise.

It's a political statement, not some altruistic endeavour. And if you don't believe that then you might recall all four corners of the Emirates decked out in BLM banners for months, even after BLM was throughly discredited. Anyone remember Viv Anderson? Compare the game now to the game then. But the message is, it's never enough. No good deed will go unpunished and every apology signifies new guilt. It's divisive and it's insidious and it's entirely unnecessary in a sport that has many, many bigger problems. When will the players be taking a knee to protest Qatar, I wonder? Or will they reluctantly be gouging each other's eyes out for a seat on the plane?

Is that true?

We'll know in 2076.

I haven’t talked about the left with you because I find your political views offensive and warped. If you believe your post wasn’t offensive that’s up to you, I did and that’s why I’ve been calling you out. It’s that simple.

My political views are offensive and warped? Mine? I feel there's little point pursuing that so I'll simply say I haven't blown any kids to pieces recently or stolen billions from the poor to give to the rich. I wonder if there's a single western leader in the last few decades who can say as much. So, I suppose, yes, my politics may be warped in that regard, but offensive? I don't see it.

If the language used in getting a point across was offensive, I already acknowledged all responses. Maybe watching Chapelle has had a bad influence on me. I forgot that some people can use certain words liberally but others can't. Sometimes the word is funny, sometimes it is super cool but other times it is bad, full stop and regardless of intent. It's difficult to keep track of all the rules. Not being white myself I sometimes think I have certain privileges which maybe I don't after all.

If you genuinely believe I used those words to express some form of racial superiority over a group of people well I can see why that would offend. Fortunately that's not the case.

More shite spouted from the man wearing the underpants face mask.

Now that IS weird. Why the face mask bit? Have I given you some indication I use them? Isn't that the sort of thing the covidians do as opposed to normal people? Anyway, thought it was strange you mentioned it.

As for the rest, which bit did you think was shite? Let me guess - all of it. I guess that makes you right and me wrong. Well done.
