    Recap?

  • Jon_theREALIST

    Have to say it, but calm down.... We were extremely unlucky today !!!!.. The game should have been 5 - 1 at the half time...
    1. Missing key players through injury or suspension - No Verm, Wilshire, & Frimpong
    2. Yakuba's 2nd goal was OFFSIDE... I think the EPL referees have a secret agenda against us. The red card in the Newcastle game, offside goal against Liverpool and now this...
    3. 2 goals were OWN GOALS... C'mon how unlucky are we!!!! I think this our third OG this season
    4. We played a UEFA CL AWAY game mid week.... I think the EPL has an agenda against us.. Why in the hell did they schedule an away game after a European away game. Look at Man City - home then away. Man U - away & then home. Chelski - home & then away.... Is it hust me or do I smell a conspiracy?
    5. Please do not listen to the media. They love to bash Wenger and Arsenal. For eg, last week we won & we were criticized by the media; while at the same time Liverpool lost & no mention at all 

  • The only contact with the media I've had and will have with regards to the game are the Offside and Arseblog. Other than that, I won't be coming near it. We can hate the media all we want, they might be in a plot against Arsenal, or they might not. But the point is. We lost to the team that was last. We were winning, and lost a lead to a team consisting of Samba and ten other chickens. We started the game against a team that was protesting against their manager, and ended the game with more points than us. We are 8 points off the leaders, with a game in hand. This is the time to break shit.

    Why is everyone so upset? Just bad luck. We would all do well to look on the bright side, chin up. Our beloved club have 4 points in 5 games. Almost a point a game! If we just get some guys back from injury and pick up the pace a little, we MAY avoid relegation!

    We're goin down, goin down.

    We'll be the best damn club in the championship next year. Arsene promised us.

    I dont say you are wrong, many times have i thought of conspiracy (hey AW is French), but.....there is always something happening.

    I mean, we KNOW its like this, when you are up 2-1 tell your players (for once that someone wnated to shoot at goal...) to check for etter options, and ury it 3-1. That demoralizes a team, whereas a missed one gives them hope. All mental.

    I need to hear you, so I will.

    But I am sad and mad.

    I believe this was an even worse defensive performance than @ Old Trafford.

    Blackburn was at the very bottom of the table, and they only scored 3 goals in the 4 matches before.

    The errors at the back were super-ridiculous!!!

    This has to be the worst Arsenal side I've ever seen in my life as a football fan, i.e. since 14 years ...

  • FredJacob

    imagine Blackburn can counterattack better than us, to glorious chances

  • Seriously?

    This group of players just don't play hard for a full 90.  The first 10 minutes of the second half, they just looked disinterested.

  • Bumblefock

    i wanna break shit

  • JG

    I feel ya buddy. Why don't you buy a cardboard cutout of Alex Fergurson and rip it to shreds? :)

  • Bumblefock
