Arsenal

How the hell is Wilshere still on.

I hate that little prick and have blinkers on when it comes to him but he should be off as well

Yes please...

['O Zio]

I feel partly responsible for this...

Surely that can't be serious? Who the hell is going to watch that? A lot of Arsenal fans hate AFTV, their views are mostly people taking the piss, and nobody who supports another club is going to actively tune in to watch 3 idiot gooners talk about the weekend's action.

I'm not even concvinced by this Arsenal turnaround. I mean they've done all they can but they've only won games they should be winning anyway. As soon as they lose again in a game that Aubamayang barely touches the ball, Mustafi gets bullied, Lacazette can't finish and Ozil goes missing again the feeling will be exactly as it was before this 'run'.

They're on a run? They're so far behind I hadn't noticed

I’m amazed so many people think he will leave in the summer. He won’t go voluntarily.

When did C4 get the rights to show goals/highlights???
And starting the series with 5 games left to play...

I think google insisted on a trial run as they’re providing the subtitles and google translate currently doesn’t have a setting for twat.

He earns over £8m a year, why would he give that up if the owners are happy with him just to placate a few fans, the most vocal of which are actual morons.

Gooners just can’t take a compliment. You point out that they’re on a great run and will probably finish ahead of Burnley because of it and suddenly you’re a ‘wind up merchant’.

Still true though.

 

[TheChosenOne]

No chance tonight for CSKA.

All conquering Arsenal to to march onto their destiny

Quiz time:

91 of the 92 League clubs have scored at least 1 point away from home so far in 2018. Can you name the 1 club that hasn't?

They actually had the audacity to give me grief on WhatsApp yesterday. Ha ha ha.

They know you're winding them up because Burnley are going to finish above them.
Burnley have three home games and two away and Arsenal have got three away and two home, one of those against Burnley.
It is beginning to look all very mid table.

Arsenal really know how to pick me up when I'm down. Love you bby, never change!

A team with Özil, Aubameyang, Mkhitaryan and Lacazette is one you'd expect to be very good.

A team with Elneny, Holding, Chambers, Iwobi and Xhaka is a team you expect to be shit.

The gulf of quality between the best and the rest in that side is shocking. It's like watching our sides of the late 90s.

I maybe in the minority here but I think there's a decent player in Elneny, if he was under Poch's wing for instance

Worse than that - you have to go as far as 20th place in National League North to find another team that hasn't secured an away point... Tamworth Town. That's 130 positions in the football pyramid

Wenger: “Of course it’s a concern to have lost five games in a row away because traditionally we have a very strong record away. It has become a subconscious weight on our minds. Once you’re in a negative spiral like this it is very hard to get out of.”

In the states you have franchises which, as the name implies, are businesses, they are part of the entertainment industry which is why there is no relegation and promotion.
The result of this is that the mindset is of always having a regular big income come what may, I believe Kroenke is firmly fixed in that mindset and with Arsenal it's a safe bet, with Arsenal there is no relegation or promotion, they are effectively a franchise model and he has no reason to change that.
