Threatening people online is an example of how sick society has gotten and how much mental health is a problem of which we all need to contribute to for our own sense of wellbeing.

That said, Arsenal fans are deluded. We keep running around with a sense of entitlement like we have dominated something. The reality is that we’ve defended the FA Cup twice and nothing else. Every other success we’ve had has been sporadic. The reality that Arsenal fans need to accept is that we’re prestigious for a multitude of reasons, our brand of football, our class, the fact that we’re always there or there abouts. But our history has glaring deficiencies, the lack of defended title, the lack of European success. I’m at a loss as to why we deserve to win.

Even the expectations on Havertz make no sense. Liverpool got European success with a striker that contributed less than Havertz. Havertz is top 3 in terms of goals and top 2 in terms of goal contributions in the league. Yet I see fans clamouring for Osimhen who is perpetually injured. How does that move us forward? We don’t play with midfielders or wingers who feed through balls. Our actual issue over recent weeks, in fact this whole season has been how pedestrian our passing has been and that’s in part because we’ve been trying to shoehorn Rice at left 8 and have been playing Partey at 6.

But the problem is, the media story is him saying we deserved to win, when we couldn’t even mount a shot on target until they got a man sent off.

I hear what you’re saying, but we need the manager to galvanise the fanbase and he can’t do that with such statements. Even the ball nonsense is just getting in the way. Sometimes he just needs to say it wasn’t good enough and we will be better in the next game.

Last season we had Ramsdale. Now we just have the terrible coach from Brentford and Raya. There’s no dissenting voices to push anyone and make them better.

We don’t have anyone willing to take the game by the scruff. Ever since Martinelli got dropped, he refuses to just run at goal and shoot because he’s worried he’ll get dropped again and that’s terrible coaching. I hate to say it but we need Arteta to step up. I would prefer that the foundation of our game is to try and win rather than not lose. Give the players a platform where they can express themselves and have magic moments.

Also want to go on record saying I’m putting this at Arteta’s door. I want him lambasted. Not sacked, but he needs to improve. Our football isn’t fluid and the chances we’re creating aren’t good or consistent enough.

I want to go on record as saying the Havertz penalty wasn’t bad, it was just a great save.

Ramsdale never held us back though. Arteta just didn’t like that he was so active in the media and so got rid, because god forbid we have personality in our squad. Raya has actually been in a terrible vein of form this season. At least half the goals we’ve conceded, he should’ve saved. The fact he didn’t even dive for today’s pisses me right off.

Seriously, I don’t think people get how fucked things are. We need to get rid of Tomiyasu, Zinchenko, Jorginho, Partey, Jesus and Tierney.

We need to bring in a goalkeeper, another right back, another centre back, a left 8, another number 6, a left winger and a striker.

What we know is that Arteta wants Zubimendi, Williams and Sesko.

Also Kiwior will probably leave.

Anyway, Zubimendi will likely push Rice to left 8, a role where he doesn’t do well because his game isn’t and hasn’t ever been to unlock his winger. Zubimendi does unlock players, but if he’s unlocking Ødegaard and Rice, we’re still not creating chances for our strengths. It’s basically akin to fake xG, so then we have our striker(s) trying to score from crosses constantly. It’s a fucking mess.

But do you think we’re bringing in all three? No and since when do three players replace 7.

Next season is going to be painful.

You’re spot on. We play for corners and celebrate winning them. Even Walcott asked what happened to Arsenal’s free flowing football?

~~There’s a few mini PCs running the Ryzen on AliExpress, like https://a.aliexpress.com/_Eu806pQ~~

Never mind, that’s the R7, not 9

We need to be more clinical, but we also need to create the types of chances that suit the players we have.

Our goal keeping coaches let us down because how didn’t Raya go in the right direction once?

Fuck Kai

Raya has been terrible so far

Micah trying to claim he’s impartial is funny

Penalties

At least we’re not finishing the match with three defensive midfielders on the pitch

Tierney gets an appearance!

We should bid for Amad

He has ability. But lacks the final ingredient, which is for the most part, end product
