These petulant reactions to losing a game of football, or worse, not totally dominating a game of football, are shameful and stupid. I'm all for discussion and analysis, but these are just the ravings of entitled children. Some of y'all need to check yourselves.
Just look at Vardy run. He's unbelievable! Wish Auba wasn't in such poor form.

we have a cowardly manager. losing 1-0 isn't the end of the world to him. certainly is better than attacking and running the risk of losing 3-1.
Are we chasing the game or running down the clock??
Imagine Vardy on the wing and Leicester playing Kevin davies upfront.
Our team looks like 10 control freaks and Saka. This is on Arteta IMO and it is not a good sign. I wish we played one midfielder higher through the middle, that always creates a bit of chaos and additional point of pressure. You need players who are among the best in the league if you want to focus on the wings only.
Utterly pathetic and predictable performance.
Seriously no way should we become so bad once Luiz went off. Its extremely ridiculous
Arteta need to work out how to build some attacking patters ASAP because I don’t see how this system will ever work.

Yes just look at Vardy run except where he is we have Lacazette.
Petulant reaction?
Supporters have watched similar performances for the last 2 years.

I understand the desire to not panic, but to me the klaxons are sounding. We are anchored in midtable if we continue to play like this, and in all of the process so far, there hasn't been a hint that we can create chances with consistency
This last 10 minutes has happened 5-10 times as well. Not creating any danger when we have to go for it. Patterns are emerging and we can't bury our heads in the sand about it
Where we bury our heads is entirely irrelevant to how Arsenal perform. Leicester had two shots on target. They won. If we do that, half this forum goes ballistic and seem mostly annoyed we won.
Disappointing.
Ugly 2nd half.
Team started out so well with moving forward in the 1st half.
What happened at half time? Thought the team would come out blazing to start the 2nd.
Laca is a hindrance. Let him go in January.
Auba play center.
Arteta showing he needs to grow up fast if this team is going anywhere.
There is a decent nucleus of players to work with.
Meh....
Terrible performance.
I can’t stand Lacazette. We have no explosiveness or attacking verve.
FT. Toothless second half. First half was at least half-decent.
This loss is 100% on Arteta. Wrong selection and subs. The team structure on offense is dreadful

Putting on Mustafi when we pushed the line up had more to do with it I reckon. His stubby little legs are so fucking infuriating. It's like watching a dwarf trying to outrun a normal-sized human in every sprint duel. Vardy got goalside of him 5 or 6 times, and he was only on for half an hour. I get that it wasn't a substitution we made willingly, but for chrissake put Saliba on the bench instead of that horror show.

What are the reactions that you don't think are appropriate? The ones I can see are:
What of the above is petulant?
Leicester are so savvy with their recruitment.
after that first half that was an unbelievably poor 2nd. That's like Citeh all over again.
Arteta set the team out well first half and we had plenty of chances but finished poorly.
2nd half the Luiz injury notwithstanding, he failed to address Dani's poor performance in midfield and respond to the introduction of Vardy.
Really disappointing this after the first half gave us more chances than we'd ever started with this season other than Fulham.

Xhaka with his rigidity and lack of right foot is a massive, massive factor. Can't wait till he leaves.
Disappointing. The first half was so good and encouraging. I really wish the manager had leaned in at half time and taken off Lacazette or another one of the weaker players. Instead he remained conservative as usual and we failed to impose ourselves.
Look, Arteta is a brand new manager. It’s not like he’s managing Messi and Xavi, so I’m not surprised it doesn’t look like fireworks. And that’s also why I expected 6th this season. This sort of performance is aligned with those expectations. On to the next one.
Slow progression of the ball. Ours players were hugging the wings too much. 0 creativity or urgency. We looked our most attractive when our defenders spread the ball...
Such an enigmatic performance.
