wolves won 3-0
>>152477644Anime
a win is a win is a win
I hate Arteta so much.
>>152477644Why is this injury magnet the OP? it was an own goal
>two (2) own goals to beat wolves
Probably the worst I've seen arsenal play in years. Anyway a win is a win.
Nearly had an heart attack goddamn.
if you ever feel worthless remember that wolverhampton scored all 3 goals and still lost
is a fogging disgrace
>>152477662Only a chosen team can win despite that
>>152477644>Wolves scored all 3 goalskekWe're not winning shit this season
>>152477671mosquera plays for the arsenal
How is he feeling right now?
nearly threw up
THAT'S WHAT CHAMPIONS DO
a win is a win...
>>152477577>>152477690Here's the mask coming off. Now we just need to figure out if he's United or Liverpool.
>>152477676The fuck is this shit now?
Utterly unlikeable cunts
It sucks that Arsenal isn't recording a docuseries anymore, I would be really looking forward to seeing Arteta tearing this team a new asshole in the dressing room after that performance.
>>152477676fixed
>>152477644>puts ABAs on suicide watchTHANK YOU JESUS100% JESUS
>needing two own goals to beat wolves
Lee Gunner is gonna make a killing in youtubebux from reviewing this game
>>152477677>in yearsCan't decide between this or the Chelsea game. On hand, this Wolves side are genuinely, truly, in every sense of the word, fucking abysmal. But on the other hand Chelsea was down to 10 men and it was their best player that got sent off and they were 1 man down for over an hour and they still looked the better side at full time.
time to thank our congolombian shitters, /arse/
>>152477723Yes after today I just can't see arsenal bottling it this year
everybody other than saka was absolute dogshit
>>152477644this guy's subconscious making him the greatest player alive ever christmas is my favourite thing about the modern world
>>152477667>>152477705>a win is a winThese things add up, look at Liverpool this season.
Our worst performance of the season. Disappointing but thankfully no damage done and now we have 7 (SEVEN) days to rest.
>>152477742arias and mosquera sacrificed their careers for these 3 points.If i see either of those two at the WC this year i will manually remove them
>>152477732I feel that draw to Chelsea where mudryk scored that corner goal was a worse one despite it being 11 vs 11
anybody else here black?
I honestly hate the pedestrian pace of the first half. Preserve energy after securing the result. I know the players are overworked (but the schedule) but come on.
Can we keep this devastating form up for the rest of the season lads?
>>152477732That black dude they had on right couldn't even do a normal cross. Almost drew with the worst team in the league at home . This is embarrassing
>>152477777
/sp/ is seething the way that match ended lolI'll take it any fucking day
arsenal desperately needed odegaard for the entire game to break down that low block
Eze really scored a hat trick and retired.
>>152477644
>>152477772I should have specified for this season lol. If we're talking actually years then like 3 Newcastle games immediately come to mind.
squeaking out a win in trap games through own goals is a sign of champions la
>>152477768kek arias will definitely be there, he dindu nuffin doe
>>152477721Wolves games don't countThey're inflating the table by at least 2 points for each team
>>152476246>Christmas generosityYes, Wolves were very generous tonight.
Got three points thanks to Wolves own presents, +3 points sorry to disappoint the hate watching fags
Surprising drop off considering the brugge game and they're a better team than wolves
heh...my boy gyoky z...eh just needs more time..heh
>if we hadn't lost to 10 men chessy>let femery dagger us
>>152477723Did you even watch the game anon?We did horribly vs the literal worst side in agesWe needed charity goals from their mistakes to win
Madueke loved playing these lot, surprised he didn't start.
any chance for a dubai trip to rejuvenate?
>hate watchers
Official stats are up yet?How many shots on target for the Arse?
>>152477795This is the most rational take this threadI shit on Odegaard from time to time but he knows how to actually break a low block and force set pieces to happen
>>152477845We've been in horrific form, extremely lucky to win today.
Here is where Sharteta failed today> taking eze off and putting on merinoif he wanted to rest ZUBI, just put on Ode for Zubi.> telling the team to low block after scoring one goaldisgraceful
>morale must be high right now, right?>haha yah.. sure...Lmao Saka, at least try to be a bit more convincing
>>152477848>we
>>1524778682 shots on target, 0 goals.
>>152477880>telling the team to low block after scoring one goalThis one i can agree with. Hog the ball until the end of the game, we can do that easily.
>>1524778680All of the "goals" are OGs
>that 5 minute period before wolves scored where they had 99% possession What was that about?
>>152477773Maybe
anybody else going to the aston villa game? maybe we could meet up and have sex and stuff
once merino went out on the pitch we were playing with 10 players. He is so bizarre, some games he is fucking invisible, might as well not be on the pitch. I dont think he won more than 1 duel during his 30 minute spell. He looked so fucking slow god damn
>>152477773wg1
>>152477773mixed lad
>>152475660I just realised that he did it again lmao.
>>152477778They looked low on confidence if anything, maybe they're still annoyed about the last game. Rice wasn't up to his usual standard either but that's probably because he's returning from illness. Combination of factors contributed to this shit performance but finally we had some luck on our side. I remember last season we scored a late winner against someone but martinelli was like a toe offside.
>ynr aaron ramseymiss him sometimes
>>152477924Arteta bad coaching. we should have been keeping possession
>>152477880Taking eze off was the right decision, it was like he wasn't even on the pitch and sends the message that he needs to lift his game
>>152477792corrrrrrrrr
>>152477963ThisEze's good at stringing open plays but struggles against low blocking dipshits like Wolves
>>152477963i disagree. He is one of the few players on the team that can score blooters and goals out of nothing aside from Saka. In games against these boring low blocks, we needed him on the pitch. I dont think he was worse than Zubimendi before coming off.
>>152477938He is a terrible midfielder, much better as a striker >>152477963People are retards for hyping eze because of 3 games.
>>152477938He's arguably the biggest anomaly i've seen play, signed as a midfielder but secretly was a CF this whole time and when he goes missing for 60 minutes he will sometimes pop up with a random goal or 2 after shouting at the screen to take him off if gyokores is on the bench
>one hundred billion pound sterling>>152477897Lmao.Austria in the MUD!
>>152477924Classic Arteta tactics. One goal and defend like your life depends on it. Doesn't matter if you're against the worst team in the history of the PL. Just don't attack. Don't keep possession. If you're going to counter attack, keep 8-9 players in your box.
>>152478018Eze's fairly rated but Arteta is just using him at the worst situations possible
Isn't the wolves manager artetas long time friend?
>>152478071social medier friend
Everton 3-1 Arsenalenjoy next week
>chelsea>brentford>villa>wolves4 shite performances in a row.
>>152477956prime ramsey would be so great in this team
>>152478094>moyessurely sharteta will have better tictacs vs his old mentor
>>152478093Same guy who managed Luton right? I recall the ex Luton manager saying they did their badges together and arteta was also saying he has a lot of respect for him. That's 2 last min winners against this manager btw. Big deccers last season.
>>152478100I hate Arsenal's form right now but I'm not stupid enough to call the Brentford game a bad performanceYou also forgot the CL fixtures where we had excellent games
>>152478155yes same guy
Week off will do the lads some good
In the space of a couple of weeks, how does this Arsenal go from comfortably dominating Bayern Munich to struggling to break down a historically bad Wolves?
>>152478179>arsenal are off the week I am offdubai here we come
>>152478187A mixture of injuries, general fatigue, and a knack for playing like shit against low blocks
>>152478179Can't wait to hear that somehow someway 3 of >our players got injured in said week
>>152478038Surely he will finally learn from the scare wolves gave this time...
Genuinely can’t tell if it’s Gyokeres or if Artetaball can only accommodate le false 9 and no one else
>>152478100And ONLY 4 points dropped.Quite impressive.>>152477077>https://streamff.com/v/ff145542From the looks of it, he only ever pulled the leg during the contact, or rather, didn't lock the leg outstretched.
Genuine question, how do Arsenal fans cope with that ridiculously cucked ownership?
>>152478179If we progress in the Carabao and FA Cup, this week will be the last time we get a mid-week break until February (assuming we finish in the CL top 8 and avoid those play-off fixtures). Need to get everyone fit and available because we'll need to rotate a lot more.
>https://streamff.com/v/725e9439Also, look at GJ here - he knew it was an own goal, told the lads immediately.
If ever there was a performance to show why Arteta isn't, nor will he ever be a title winning manager, it's this one. Awful, cowardly football, no matter who the opposition is.
>>152478290>Implying Kroenkes are the problemYou can't even criticize us right BuyernfagThey're the reason why our financials are in the green and not in crisis mode like other "big" clubs
>>152477938I wont stand for merino slander.
>>152478290I've apologised to the Kronkes, they've been way more generous the past few years
>>152478038Btw do you know Gaeilge?
>>152477962And pressed to the end. The entire second half team was fresh.
>>152478179It'll do me a fucking world of good too. My heart.
>>152478290Given the track record of British owners (Mike Ashley, Alan Sugar, Jim Ratcliffe, dildo brothers at West Ham), it's probably a good thing that Arsenal are owned by foreigners.
>>152478219If he didn't learn it from the 30 odd other times he's gotten a scare then I'm going to go out on a limb and say he won't be learning jack diddly squat today.>>152478418I doubt that I could even hold a basic conversation at this point.
corr arteter looking a bit fraudulent lately
>>152478312>ynr it was the same faggot that put his fingers up GJ's ass last seasonHoly karma
most embarrassing and confidence-shattering performance of the seasonHOW after half a decade in charge can our game plan still just be 'pass to Saka and pray'
>arteta pissed in the post match interview and presser. based
>>152478628Don't let it die, friend.It's part of your historyI started studying Tsakonian, a dialect descending from ancient Doric Greek, connected to ancient Spartans.It's really close to extinction and I'm sad about it. I wanna learn it and find a way to help it survive Language is a pretty important part of identity
>>152478996Maybe the useless cunt should have a word with himself seeing as this is the exact same performance we start to see every season at this point.
>>152478694>lately
That last thread was proper funny.
>>152478996He's so performative.
>>152478290I rather enjoyed usmanov desu
whats the exact problem with gyok? not enough service? farteta? he's a scrub?
We deserved to lose
>>152478907433. The forward is stuck in the middle, wingers are hugging the touchline, midfield is playing defense. Our 10 isnt doing his job.
>>152479150he definitely seems off form atmBut it seems hes not fit for >our system. He barely gets any chance and his low confidence makes it much worse That's why I was fuming when Arteta took him off on that last CL match He really needs a goal
>>152479057>>152479101nah
missed everything lads I'm sorry
>>152479002I agree but honestly I had a shit teacher and that pretty much killed the entire class's joy of learning. If I went back to it now it'd only feel like a chore since I don't have a genuine interest. It's cool that you've found something neat like that though. And that you're passionate about it, which is like 75% of the battle.
>>152479279Lucky you. That was tied first for the worst performance of the season so far, along with the Chelsea game.
>>152479279it's why >we won
>>152479150I genuinely think hes just not good. Its not just that he cant get goals, he just cant play, cant pass, cant generate space, is slow, doesnt threaten the defense etc. Jesus in 5 minutes had more good football movements than him in the entire game. Its not the 3rd game of the season anymore and it seems the team is worse with him. It sucks because i could swear he would score 40 goals a season
hincapie's 2nd time conceding a last minute goalarsenal for the third time not managing a game in the dying minutes
>>152479959Jesus' time is up. Gyok has momentum issues.
>>152479997Bad positioning, guy was offside, he like an LB exclusively?
>>152478015>hat can score blooters and goals out of nothing aside from Saka.sake can not fucking do that
>>152479959>>152480023he just needs some confidence. similar to how havertz was shit for 5 months when he first came
I still hope conte goes to my arse
Lmao, retarded journos in Dailyfail are seething because Arsenal got all the 3 points
Just watched the highlights. Fuck me that was pretty dire. For once I'm glad I didn't get to see the whole game.
>>152480242yup i posted about this like 2-3 threads ago. the media are retarded and the whole clickbait/engagement thing needs to die asap
>>152480298>the whole clickbait/engagement thing needs to die asapGood luck with that. Just become a semi-hermit like me. No social media, news from only high-brow sources. Probably means I'm way out of touch with popular culture but at least I'm happier for it.
at some point you start wondering if it’s match-fixingsome of these players probably make more money letting big teams farm goals and assists than actually battling to avoid relegation
>>152480298Was it you saying: If it was Liverpool or City, the title would be "Heroic comeback by Liverpool/City after dominating, one-sided match by the title contenders"...or something like that?! i completely agree btw. >the whole clickbait/engagement thing needs to die asapthe whole Dailyfail staff need to die asap
>>152480390>semi-hermitam already>high-brow sourceswhich ones? >>152480476yeah (to the question and comment(s))
>Mikel Arteta: We scored but then we had three minutes in deep, so passive, really poor defensive habits. Not acceptable for our level, because we hadn’t conceded a single shot, the first time they do it they score a goal. That’s the Premier League!they were not up to the efoggin estandards today
Do we buy vinicius or rodrygo?
>>152479959i think arteta's tactics are a fucking blackhole for any striker. literally every 9 under him has been badit doesnt help that gyok doesnt have the skills to play the possession based game.
Hincrapie is not it am afraid
>>152480940>literally every 9 under him has been bad
Saka and Rice carrying this team today.
Jesus got his revenge
>>152480778But we always sit back after scoring, this is his standard.
>>152481033auba didnt play as a 9 so im not sure who you'd even be referring to
>>152479150>trossard apparently the only guy who can consistently get the ball to gyokeres>martinelli and saka care more about losing their dribble than through balls into the swede>even still, it's crosses from the left and some ground balls from the right no matter whatodegaard and saka are blackholes on the right and refuse to take the risk of hitting the early pass even if it means losing possession
>>152481843>martinelli and saka care more about losing their dribble than through balls into the swedeI was surprised Saka actually passed it to Gyokeres when he won the free kick.
>>152480778>We scoredWhy would he lie?
>conceded last minute to sunderland>conceded last minute to villa>conceded last minute to wolvesThis is bad.
>>152482108Gabriel is the defence
>>152482142He played against Sunderland.
>>152482589all wins believe it or not
>>152482163Calafiori, Timber and Raya were the problems in that game, Gabriel actually played well.
Due to AFCON and injures, no Gueye, Dewsbury-Hall or Ndiaye for Everton next weekend. Meaning it will be yet another squeaky bum time fixture.
a wee bed time story. nite /arse/https://youtu.be/u9S41Kplsbs
>>152480980nothin to do but play him offside, dude was taller and got the header perfect. bukakke caca, odorfart and ducklan just observed wolves player have an unchallenged shot on goal from 16.
>>152482779all of them will be like this. were all going die by this seasons end. this is our last hurrah
>>152477836Brugge didn't play in such a deep low block. I wasn't surprised at all. In fact, I had money on Wolves to get a result and I almost got there.I agree with Lee Judges after the Villa match: Arsenal have been found out. Sit deep and Arsenal have no way to unlock you. All you have to do is defend set pieces and you're good. This was bound to happen once opposition started to defend corners properly.
>>152482589You guys beat Sunderland last season did ya
>>152482589it's getting spotty, we need our CB's back
So how hopeful are we for Palace to help us?
>ben white dead hamstring again because arteta was too much of a pussy to rest him and let MLS take over at LB>refusing to rest zubimendi even when he wants to park the bus poorlyhe may have called the team out publicly, but they're playing the way he wants them too. need more renegades that will do whatever the fuck they want because the offense is too stagnant the past 3 years
>>152477773no
>>152484404there are ways to help us, it's not always about pointsomebody getting injured for example
I genuinely don't remember the last away win in the league.
>>152485547Going off memory, I'd say Brentford
>>152485574Nope, it was FulhamYikes
>>152483494>Arsenal have been found out.This is nothing new. The horseshoe of death has been a meme for a long time.
>>152485585>went from emptying out stadiums wherever we go to thisGrim.
Is it the fans were booing at HT?
>>152484227Don't be daft. The newly promoted sides take the relegated sides results for this graphic
>>152482589Anyone looking at the upcoming matches and still thinking we would would win this year should be ashamed about their utter delusionWe looked like the worse team against the literal worst team since Derby 07/08Our lucky streak will run out eventually
We are so bad bros. It’s not even funny
lol these havertz revisionism, people really forget how shit his finishing
arteta out
>>152486357Yes, but the goalposts have shifted to "is he better than Gyokeres" rather than "is he better than Ivan Toney"?
what would it take for pep to part ways with khusanov?
>>152487694He needs to return the bribe money.
>comfy win yesterday >City about to lose to Palace >Ogre getting injured while trying to bully Guehiabout to get cozy up here

>Villelimagine losing to that heap of dung.
>Villa losing to Wet SpamWe're truly the worst team in the league right now, we're just extremely lucky that everyone is imploding all over us
>>152486702Gyokeresissies, our response?
>>152488311>>152488290
That win is a sign of champions la.
>>152488329I did some back of the napkin analysis, and Gyökeres needs to play more like he did in Sporting and not in Coventry. Right now, he's not running in to space as often and when he does fraudegaard and other don't pass it. When they did (see Calamari/Trossard a few matches a go) he excels. Arsenal look better with him on the pitch as he pins the defenders and gives space to QuackaSharteta needs to step it up and solve it.
>>152488440Arsenal basically need to look at Haaland and copy some of those strats without impairing Saka/Trossard
They better go Dubai this week to get better. I need a 20W streak.
>>152488440>Sharteta needs to step it up and solve it.>inb4 the Solution is to bench himVery in-character for our Ted Bundy look-alike, too.
>>152482589All those draws last season still do my head in. Were lucky to not drop points last night too.
>>152488497you’ll get another Kai setback and a loss to Everton and like it.
>>152488091>>City about to lose to PalaceThey'll find a way to win like they nearly always do. Probably that Norge cunt with the winning goal.
>>152488311Villa are away from home down in London. Their home record is very good.

>>152488807Must be some fag on vpn.
>>152488821RIP
I told people man city can easily run off 10-15 wins in a row in this weak ass league and people laughed at me
>>152488840It's not a weak league though. It's a very competitive one this season. This is supported by the evidence of English teams slapping everyone in Europe too.
>>152488840Who laughed? Everyone knows they can do that. No one laughs in /arse/, we're all far too miserable.
>>152488840They'll win it as long as foden and the ogre stay fit. A couple of their players are also going to afcon but they'll get reinforcement in the jan window
>Because we didn't pick out the right colour of the shirt. When you have a free metre, normally we put the ball not on target and go, and we put it out and time and time and time again, it is frustrating, yeah, but this is the game, but I expect to hit the right colour. You have to hit the back post every single time at this level, and today we haven't done it, so we started to make things more difficult for us. Sharteta calling out Shartinelli. Next summer, Arsenal need to get another winger to replace him.
>Arsenal now have a midweek off of action for the first time since the week commencing August 25th.

kinda crazy how well direct teams like palace can get through on goal even vs the top teams, it's actually exciting to watchmakes me a bit depressed to be an arsenal fan
Palace doing an everything in their power to make me lose faith in them. They should have scored at least two already.
>Villa with a drawActual sign of championsArsenal could never
>>152489043It’s funny how open city is playing them despite being up a goalInsanely high line when they have the ball. Must be nice
>>152488896Anyone see when shartinelli noticed he was about to be subbed he started putting effort in? Now is it a coaching problem that this guy hasn't improved or is it just that' he's low IQ and also needs glasses
>>152489043Damn they must have scored so many goals than, right? Way more than us right anon?
>>152488934Liverpoop called dibs on him already, supposedly.
>>152489080No clue why though, they kept giving up chance after chance and still do, like in every away game this season but Palace keep choking in front of goal.
>>152489096not really what i'm sayingfinishing has been shit but at least they feel like they are constantly trying to get through on goalgranted every team plays horrible low block anti-football against >us
>>152489099MORE forwards? On the one hand it helps if they don't fix their defense or CM, but I'm kind of hoping 'pool being in a mess this season means we could be in with a chance too.
>>152489100Yep, palace sees it too. Really direct attacks. Doubt city or palace would EVER play us like this.Wish arteta would figure it out so we stop seeing 10 behind the ball all game
Weird that City have lost 4 games already this season. They've gotten all their losses out the way early and it'll be wins from here on in.
>wet spamkys
pls eddy
>>152489105What you're saying is it makes you depressed to be an Arsenal fan when clearly Palace don't score as many goals as we do, not even close. I know /arse/ very well but even for our standards the Villa game absolutely mind broke the thread. It's time to chill a little bit.
>>152489218i dont think you doit's just more enjoyable to watch
Eddie to the rescue!
>>152489218quite frankly Italybro, you should know better. My troll’o meter is giving off massive readings since yesterday, we have our usual suspects on their VPNs but a few new individuals spouting nonsense.
I really hate Foden.
>>152488749>>152489227Delusional little faggot
>>152489218Imagine being content with the current Pulisball and every second goal coming from a set piece after the way Wenger had Arsenal playing for over a decade.
So it happened AGAIN
Palace lost to out of form Liverpool at home, I don't know why you expect them to get anything from City.
>>152489305We’ve regressed to the same style of wengers last years of crab passing so it’s funny that you say that
>>152488946My bad dawg, my bad
>City 2 goals from 0.37xGunsuitable!
>>152489352>poolace no goals from 1.4
>>152489154Weeell, they are banishing the legendary Moe "Mohammad" "He would never walk alone if he didn't upset us fans" "Salad but only after sunset" Salah...
>spursat least some comedy today
>>152489352Almost as if that metric is fucking retarded
>spurslol
Villa blooter lol
Champion worthy performances from City and VillaArsenal could never
>
in the same period arsenal play like 7 games bayern muncih play 3 games + have 22 day wintebreak, oh and they play 2 games less overall in the season.what a joke it is that we compete on equal terms in ucl
>>152489490Bayern do have it piss easy in their league. The PL is intense week in, week out.
>>152489490We're not even winning the CL eitherThe group stage is a literal honeypotI'll give it dropping in the Semis against a dark horse that eventually wins it
btw eze was absolute dogshit yesterday. 60 minutes he did nothing and gyokores... i was big gyokores hypeman but how he getting beat up by every single pl cb??
Villa-City title race it is then.
Palace you have disappointed me today.
>>152489523exactly, which was why i was saying Kane was superior to lewa cuz they put up similar numbers but kane was battling in the octagon for spurs to get top 4 while lewa had a winter break in a joke of a league, 2 seasons of kANE and all bayern fans rate kane higher than lewa
>>152489531because the way hes being coached to play is horrible and doesnt suit him at all
>>152489532Villa has the upper hand believe it or notThey're gonna batter us at home and take the top spot we've been warming for months
>tfw a week long break
>>152489558arteta is a complete retard at coaching attacking midfielders, wingers and strikers
>ben white permacrookedtomiyasu has blood on his hands, another failure of multiculturalism, also arteta the idiot for signing a guy who was already crooked at bologna
>poolace>spuds>wet spamA shame on London.
>>152489558thiswe have seen this pattern with almost every attacking midfielder for the past few yearsit always feels like in the moments they are given a chance to do what they want they actually deliver, and when they are forced to play in artetas system they look useless
I hope there's no more delusional faggots in this threadIf I were Arteta I'd just focus on the CL and the domestic cups instead and throw in the towel for the PremCity and Villa are knocking and they deserve the title more than us tbqh
>>152489602>leading the PL>better give up nowmindbroken as fuck
>>152489560Yeah I just feel like we're getting relegated this season, Arteta might just be the worst manager in football history.
>>152489610see>>152482589If Arteta could pull off a miracle this season I'd rather be in the CL instead of pushing through our worst matchups in the last 5 years
>>152489599>>152489576i knew hed coach the spark out of eze. didnt take longknew he'd coach the runs out of gyok too. didnt take long
>>152489602>>152489610It doesn't matter what we think. Arsenal and Arteta will of course continue to go all out in both the main competitions, and hope for the best.
>>152489640if only we could have had artetas defensive solidity and focus on pressing and duels combined with wengerball attack.
>>152489642The best we're getting at the Prem is at least 4th at the form we have right nowOverfatiguing ourselves for another 2nd place is not as worth it as actually winning silverware
Declan Rice is our patrick vieira and just like arteta overplayed the shit out of saka to bail himself out in 2020-2023 hes doing the same with the ricester
>>152489710bit disrespectful to Vieira that. Rice is nowhere near as talented.
>>152489610He isnt a fan.
>>152489721well as in hes the first time we've ever properly replaced vieira with a similar type of player of top tier quality, and also Rice has the uncanny ability to become an even better player when the stakes matter, just like Vieira. Rice mogs that little bitchboy ødegaard who has to take 50 touches everytime he has the ball
>>152489670his structured approach is what makes us good in the back and our raw talent has made up the resteven pep has a super structured team but only up to a point. 15 yards outside the box he wants his players to be creative and make things happen without that structure
>>152489710>3-time premier league and world cup winner vieiraWe can only hope with Rice.
>>152489722Watch the games anonWe're not as good as the recent bottlejob yearsThe rest of the league just imploded and its currently stabilizing back to its proper placementI could see a future where we eventually win it but this year just ain't it
>>152489610He's a troll
>>152489760problem is, the raw talent is so much lesser in the world now compared to just 10-12 years ago. Right now the only ones that are truly insane elite players are Kane, Mbappe nd Haaland.But 10-12 years ago there were so many OP players the lesser teams could get Higuain, Cavani, Di Maria, Tevez, Suarez, Sanchez, Ozil.Nobody on the market this summer or next summer is close to that level and its so annoying because we are finally in a position where we can demand to buy the best players
>>152489792Holy based!
Villa and City looking dominant
>>152489801I don't think Arsenal will win it this year either. There's something about this team I can't put my finger on that makes me feel the title isn't realistic. Man City, and now Aston Villa somehow, show up to games and win like it's their job. I never get that feeling with Arsenal. The attack isn't reliable or consistent enough. It's good, like they can destroy teams. But they can also go 2-3 games without a performance. you can't win a title like that regardless of how good your defense is.
Yesterday, Arsefags realized they lost the league.
ngl the race is hotting up. hope the lads don't crack again from the pressure
The only way I could see the vibe shift happening is when we actually get a win vs Villa before the end of the yearIt's a moonshot but if we can maintain at least a 3 point lead vs City we could have a small shot in winning the league
Its getting closer and closer...
>Spurs
>>152489850maybe they're shithouses with bottle job DNA? maybe not, but it's a possibility
>>152489899A key injury to Foden or Haaland would also do it.
>next game is everton awayguys will arteta choke at his old club vs his old manager..??
>>152489964Tedious draw incoming, with of course City winning.
>>152489930City players are doped to the gills, only if someone breaks their legs or they have some super awkward fall/collision they’ll be our for an extended amount of time.
Update on benny blanco?
>>152489986Correct
>>152489930haaland's weekly peptide injections mean he is injury-proof
>>1524898993 point lead against City at Christmas is not enough, hasn't been for a decade
>>152489986this. nobody dopes better than Pep except Messi he doped since he was 5 years old.
>>152489986>>152489999>>152490019>haaland goes to City>IMMEDIATELY starts letting his hair grow out and never cutting it. just like Bale at madridits so obvious lmao, prolly got told theres a big chance he wont get his hair back so hes growing it as much as he can while hes doped up by Pep and his doctors
>>152490025Plus it actually looks like shit
>>152489610Yeah literally. Arsenals form has been immense this season but even when we occasionally play like shit we still at least get a draw out of the game most of the time. When city are shit they start losing games. They would have to go through the rest of the league season only losing 2 more games based on precedent, because no team has ever lost 7 games and won the league.
>>152490087You realise that a draw is basically the same as a loss, right? Wenger tried his best to make it so a score draw would earn 2 points (Arsenal 100% would have won at least 1 title recently under those rules) but his idea was shut down.
>>152490087I'm putting all my faith into Opta's supercomputer. AI don't let me down now.
>>152490116just give us the title already then
>>152490108A draw isn't a loss when your rival is losing. We're literally ahead of city on draws you realise that right?
>>152490116Funny, the actual bookies odds don't reflect this.
>>152490154Arsenal are the bookies favourites for the league
>>152489989permaheemed, no recovery
>>152490116>tfw we beat bayern with relative ease, then probably lose to them in the knockout game
>>152490116>ucl>99%doubt.
>>152490272nvm im retarded
Lmao these weak-minded faggots have already thrown the towel in because their feeble psyche can not handle a title race that is a little bit tight.You retards accuse Arsenal players of being weak-minded and collapsing under pressure, but you're even worse.16 games in, top of the table both in EPL and CL, while going through a severe injury crisis....All the players are either injured (Gabriel, Havertz), or just came out from injury (Saliba, Trossard), or are at the verge of getting injured (Saka, Rice).This is the lowest this Arsenal team can get>inb4 Saka and Rice get injuredwouldn't be much different from the current form, for they are currently far away from their peak.Yeah Arsenal will drop points, there is going be more losses and even more draws, but so is it going to be for every other team...especially Shitty and Villa.
>>152490364okay but City will hardly drop any points as long as the ogre isn’t injured.
>>152490364>going through a severe injury crisis>lists 2 playerslmao
>>152490688even the ABA media are calling it an injury crisis
>>152490739missing *check notes* 1 starter
>>152490846why do you come in here? it’s kind of sad
>lose to wolves>"if you want to contend for championships you need to be able to dig deep and win games like that">beat wolves>"you're not going to win championships if play like this"
>>152490364good post.
>>152491036Because he's lonely and everyone here always gives him attention. He can say the most retarded shit ever and someone will still give him (You)s and that's literally all that obsessed freaks like him need.
>>152491129stop it anon, your post make us sensible fans look bad, do you really believe that a team contesting for the league should struggle as much as Arsenal did to beat one of the worst sides since the inception of the modern premiership? Not to mention that the same flaws keep appearing over and over, the same flaws thad sabotaged >us last season and will this season too. I don’t mind the Villa loss quite frankly because the game was relative even, maybe slightly in Arsenal’s favor (if >we could actually finish) but apart from that loss and the draw vs City Arsenal shouldn’t have dropped any points. All the players getting injured, the horseshoe of death, Gyökeres underperforming, Eze turning to shit and many more are all self made problems as if Arteta has imposed some kind of restrictions on the team. Medical staff and the cone placer are what’s keeping >us from achieving greatness. Not your made up social media retard takes.
>>152491781bad post.
>>152491850nevertheless true.
>>152491915in your head maybe.
>>152492100simple facts anon. >We switched players to different positions, >we signed more and new players, >we tried different, mostly fluid but still, formations and yet the same problems vs the same tactics still exist? By method of elimination the only remaining factors are only 3 - Arteta, the medical team and ‘bad’ luck.
>>152490219Yes. Yes this is what will happen.
>>152491781right.>your post make us sensible fans look badyoure not a sensible poster, youre a doomposter and thats far from sensible. youre the verse ty (or whatever hte fag from aftvs name is)>team contesting for the league should struggle as much as Arsenal did to beat one of the worst sidesit was a bad game. literally nobody said it was a good game. shitty almost drew 5-5 with fulham and 3-3 with leeds. bad games happen.>Not to mention that the same flaws keep appearing over and overpoint them out please; the arse have been improving every season. >the same flaws thad sabotaged >us last season and will this season tooyou mean red cards for literally touching the ball after the whistle was blown? the var controversies? randos scoring from the halfway line?uefa changing the rules for the knockout stages? >All the players getting injuredyes fine you have a point there. still, merino getting injured on his first day, ode struggling because some random broke his ankle with a tackle from behind, cala landing awkwardly and fucking up his knee twice, etc etc. on top of that if your manager asks you if you can play and you know you cant you should probably say something right?>the horseshoe of deathi will not address this because it's just retarded. > Gyökeres underperforming, Eze turning to shit and many more are all self made problemsfair i guess but every player can underperform, especially attackers. just look around. haaland is the exception not the norm. >Arteta has imposed some kind of restrictions on the team.like what? stop breaking the clubs records for goals scored? or being defensively solid? > Medical staff and the cone placer are what’s keeping >us from achieving greatness.idk medical staff but arteta IS the reason we're even in the conversation. or do want emery back? or allegri? or zidane?>Not your made up social media retard takes.that was his point.
>>152493065>>152492403 >We switched players to different positions, >we signed more and new players, >we tried different, mostly fluid but still, formations and yet the same problems vs the same tactics still exist?i dont understand what youre getting at? changing positions is bad? having new players is bad? having players and a team who can play multiple different formations is bad? if you know how to effortlessly break low blocks please post here or send an email to arsenal/arteta i, they and all of us will immensely appreciate that. >By method of elimination the only remaining factors are only 3 - Arteta, the medical team and ‘bad’ luck.arteta and bad luck i addressed above. the medical stuff - again - this is probably as close as youve come to making sense.
>>152489532Final match day is City vs Villa. Might genuinely be a title decider.
Only silver lining to yesterday was arteta calling out his team publicly for stupidly giving up pressure after the 1-0 and for failing to consistently feed gyokeres. But at the end of the day they play the way he wants. It's on him.
The only leaders on the pitch for Arsenal are Gabriel and Rice. The rest are soft minded weak betas like Ben White and Odegaard who flee from responsibility and crumble under pressure. This is why people criticise their mentality.
>>152494342I want emery to win just to see the true nature of these artetasexuals.
>Everton away in a week
>>152494937I'll probably go for a 1-1 draw.
It least we aren’t playing like spurs, right bros?
>>152495806To be fair they actually won a trophy last season.
>>152495910>mickey mousey tournaments
chin up lads, there are only 22 games left
>>152496013We can't be picky where Europeans cups are concerned.
>>152494510>stupidly giving up pressure after the 1-0That happens SO FUCKING MUCH that I find it hard to believe that no one is asking them to do that. The amount of times we have all complained here about the team scoring one goal and then just sitting back for the rest of the game is just uncountable.
>>152496110Burnley won a trophy when they finished first in the Championship
Gyokeres is genuinely one of the worst strikers I’ve seen at Arsenal. I’m not even sure he’s better than Chamakh or Bendtner. I just don’t know what he does at all. He loses every duel, gets outpaced by every defender, his touch is terrible and his passing is awful.
>Former Arsenal defender Takehiro Tomiyasu is set to join Dutch giants Ajax on a short-term deal until the end of the season.
>>152496610
If wolves didnt gift that goal at the end we'd be 2nd, CP played vs city like us in the first 25 minutes of most games, dominating but not scoring and the other team snatches a goal from being efficient with the minimal chances they got in the first half, f'n jobbers, whole league is a conspiracy
>>152496610Aubameyang was born in the wrong generation, imagine him at his prime in this arsenal team
>Breaking news: Arteta: “Arsenal are shit, it’s over. See you in August.”
>>152499150??
>>152496610They thought they were buying their own Haaland, but they got their own Hojlund instead
I usually don't like when arteta tries to copy pep but he needs to start playing to gyokores' strengths like city is with haaland this season, if he's starved to the point where he gets 0 to 2 chances per game, no wonder he's struggling
>>152499889Hojlund at utd looked sharper than gyokeres
>>152477644i miss him so much, please send him back already
Arsenal are not winning the Premier League.Arsenal are not winning the Champions League.Arsenal have been good evening'd by Unai Emery in another PL season.
>>152501205The League cup is ours.
>>152496610I’m gonna wait until January to state my opinion, but it’s not looking good for big Vik. All I wanted was a guy who could score every other game and pump them in against the shit teams. Arsenal always has these matches where everyone is tired, not performing great - >we need some big grug to smash a couple in to give everyone (Saka) a break. This just isn’t Viktor.
Arsenal don't have a single player in the Premier League top scorer rankings or in the assist rankings, but Raya is tied for first in clean sheets. Basically what you'd expect from such a defence heavy team.
>defence heavy team.>Arsenal have 4.75 shots on target per match at home in the Premier League this season.>second on total shotstake your hot takes to /epl/ you fags
>>152501622arsenal have scored the 2nd most amount of goals in the league though
>>152501205>Arsenal winning
I still believe.
That someday you and me.
Will find ourselves.
I don't wanna jinx it...
>>152490521>City will hardly drop any points as long as the ogre isn’t injured.Meanwhile in reality:>Haaland has missed insignificant minutes (if any) this season >has already lost 4 matches in the league>out of the current top 8, has only been to 3 of the grounds and picked up 4/9 points from it (Arsenal's ratio is currently worse, but they've at least played more of them and are still above city)>haven't even played Chelsea yet at allArsenal is still very capable of slipping, but this Citeh squad is NOT the team you doomers pretend it is (muh sharks lmao). We will drop more points, so will they. Do not be surprised if the winner this season has barely over 80 points
>>152505104>Do not be surprised if the winner this season has barely over 80 pointsThe supercomputer seems to think so >>152490116The predicated points have remained somewhat steady, but Arsenal's percentage to win the league has dropped about 10% over the past few weeks.
Arsenal aren't a very good footballing side I'm afraid
>>152505709As it currently stands, they're the best in England and Europe.
>>152506188If that were true they wouldn't have just struggled to beat the worst Prem side of all time
>>152506215I don't make the rules m8.
>>152506271Used to love Zola back in the day. One of the few likeable Chelsea players.
>>152494872>merino and calafiori are the team jokersGrim.
>>152490116Supercomputers don't take injuries and game form into accountArsenal's form at the moment is midtable at best (if we cound tge Wolves "win") and our key players are injured
>>152502171Without set pieces and OGs we'd be at the bottom half near the relegation zone
>>152504352HELL YEAH
>>152509697>we
how does this retarded spic get paid 15 million pounds to finish second every year
Arteta status ?
