Meatwad , perhaps you are right.. but its Gary Monk today.. disgraceful
gary monk is 35 with his managerial career ahead of him. i wouldn't make assumptions about his ability, he's doing good at swansea. wenger is a washed up shell of a manager, if i was a fan of the opposition and my manager couldn't outthink wenger then i would know they aren't the right one for the job.
There's nothing to out-think. It's clear what the problem has been this season. We lost Sagna, and his replacement Debuchy. Koscielny has achilles problems. Chambers is 19 and Monreal is at CB. The defence is nowhere near as strong as last season which was the reason we were effective for long stretches. Mert is all over the place. Midfield we have Arteta who is always injured. Ramsey off form. Cazorla who is past it. Sanchez and Welbeck.
The team we had out there is far from the best we've had. We lack so much quality, it's unbelievable. Our miracle of 2013 was down to 5 key players, IMO. Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Arteta and Ramsey. These 5 almost always played together, and carried the team, because the attack was horrible. The attack is still horrible, but the defence has been separated. That's why we're no good in defence or attack.
