Swansea. Away from home, missing most of their best palavers - Fulham could have beaten them with one up front. A useless comparison hombre.

Do you honestly think that the core issue is how many strikers you have on the pitch? I don't think you are that stupid

Sherwood i feel, has to go.

Van Gaal is the man.

What say you?


If that happens then half the twenty five man squad will need to go as well. You could have LVG manage, with Pep as his assistant and Rose, Naughton, Dawson, Townsend, Bentaleb, and Siggy wouldn't get a run out in a third string side under that set-up.

If there is any truth in the LVG story and Levy is serious none of the above would make a shit's difference on the pitch for whoever is at the helm. Not one fucking jot.

Agree, what Daniel Levy does with Sher's wood should not get in the way of the football side of things.

LVG would have had a plan today, and we would have won.

The thing that hurts, really bad, is the burning sensation im getting from the Cypriot wine im drinking, on top of that, Arsenal were awful today, terrible, there for the taking and its like we were crying in the corner fluffing. Truth is, i just didn't feel much, a sense of inevitability. And i can't say that about any match against them ever before, even when we were terrible in the late 90's (when i started properly paying attention)

Did you think Sherwoods in game tactics and substitutions were good, or indeed logical?

Should of been Paulinho for Bentaleb...Sandro and Chadli I would of left on.

Anyway I'm reviewing the game as a whole.

Yeah he's making mistakes but that was a good performance, certainly as far as this season goes. Lacking guile is nothing new.

I can understand the frustration, I'm pissed off, but you can't blame Sherwood for absolutely everything. Its getting ridiculous, seriously.

Arsenal only ever play one way, they didn't come to play for a smash and grab. They didn't even play Flamini beside Arteta. They were set up to attack but we forced the initiative and controlled the game - don't think I ever remember us controlling a NLD with so much ease even if we didn't offer enough cutting edge.

We all thought we we're bringing in top players. It was like Christmas on this site. The managers haven't got the best out of them
Agree. I do believe 5-6/7 really could work very well for us if they only got a semi-competent manager to work with.

But the reason we were dominating was because we had 5 in midfield. You can just pop on a goal hanger like Soldado. WE would have lost a lot of possession. We should have brought on paulinho for Bentaleb and left it at that

I disagree, we were dominating because of the way they were playing not us. Wenger knew we were poor up front and came to defend and counter, it was so obvious. TS's subs were all wrong for me.

In all honesty, i would not mind one bit if all those players you listed were to leave!

Oh dear - I'll try not to bite your foolish bait.
Of course it's not the core issue…goon.
Nor indeed, is trying to say that Swansea proves otherwise.
I don't think you and I should try and converse.
All the best.

If roles had been reversed today most on here would be saying we were lucky again and that Wenger tactically had the better of Sherwood

I feel your pain, minus the wine.

I had to watch the game with my goon brother.
