Koscielny breaking down and crying during a team meeting :(
Zero chance on the mental strength front imo
Poor Aboomerang...must be wondering what the f he walked into. Lol at Ozil...had a chance to leave but stayed #mug
It’s all so boring and predictable. I just shrug my shoulders now after a defeat and hope for an even worse one in the next game.Quote:

It's quite an eye opener as to just how detached the board/owner actually are. Is there no point where they will actually step in and end this? We've always suspected this was the case with them. But, to see it actually play out like this is quite sad. What a state for a football club to get itself into.Quote:

It is difficult for us to do much worse than we are now. I mean, even Spurs managed to finish in the top six with a mess of a squad and Tim Sherwood in charge.Quote:

They will sack him.Quote:

Not really. A bad result at the start of a season in which we went on to finish in the top 4. They’ve kept him because he always got top 4. Last year he missed out on it by one point and won a cup. That coupled with the fact that if they got rid of him the new bloke would’ve had to come in and work with Wenger’s mates meant they kept him on. We now have Mislintat, Fahmy and whatever the Barca fella is called instead of Dick Law and Steve Rowley. We will also finish 15-20 points off top 4 and not win anything.Quote:

He gave the ball away 18 times in the first half last night, apparently.
18 times :hehe:
Don't forget Yossi, he rented Yossi for a yearQuote:

Well, our stropping game is now very weak.Quote:
