The worst thing about today isn't the loss, thats expected but the only good chance we created was a header for Rob Holding. Even against lesser opposition we are going to struggle.

I don’t think we’ve managed to muster a single decent xG chance in the first two games.

Get Conte. He won’t let Chelsea come to our place and run riot like that.

yep. our attacking play is the worst its been in my lifetime, by a decent margin

Genuinely worse than under Graham, at least he had a plan.

On a par with George Graham

Thing is, Graham had bloody Scelly, Parlour, Jensen, McGoldrick, Campbell et al. The only decent ones were really Wright and Merson.

We have Saka, ESR, Aubameyang, Pepe, Lacazette, Martinelli etc light years from what Graham was working with.

Arteta put it down to the difference in quality. Why wasn't that the difference then in our favour against Brentford?

That's an insult to Graham calling him par with Arteta in any regard.

On a par in comparison with the horrendous football we played under Graham in his last couple of seasons. That is a fact.

What is also a fact, is that Graham as a whole was a far superior manager to Arteta. If he had the building blocks we have right now, we would not look nearly as bad. Plus I still believe he was the best defensive coach to ever coach in England in recent times (last 30 years)

The problem for Arteta is even if he was the one, 3 losses from 3 is not easy to recover from. You’d have to win 5 of the next 5 just to get back to a reasonable PPG ratio.

If he was the one he wouldn't have finished 8th consecutively. Everyone knows this season is a write off the way he rebuild the squad, red flags galore. The first 3 games or 8 games or whatever this season is only to clear out the remaining ones who still are clutching at straws.

Just watched Arteta's post match interview. Guy is fucking deluded my god. I don't even want to talk about what he said, absolutely ridiculous.

He talks well , that impresses the Kroenkes . They are stupid .
That's why we are here.

George Graham’s teams were playing against beered up cloggers though

we can't create chances for shit and we just paid 40m for a creative player not judged on goals or assists, 50m for a centre back, and 30m for a backup gk.

The second Borat movie is great you guys. I totally made the right choice.

That Rudy Giuliani scene ... ?

Jagshemash!


If we had lost to Chelsea pretty sure he would be gone last december. Reminds me of when we beat Conte's Chelsea and inspired them to win the league title.

Was watching the post match analysis and I can't really blame Tierney at all. It's very obvious all our defenders are told to man mark their marker. So Chelsea easily pulled us apart and created space for James. It was very intentional and we didn't react to it.

Isn't it kind of weird that they had Frimpong do the Ødegaard welcome interview on Arsenal.com a few days ago when he's constantly writing stuff like this on Twitter? 😆

Uhm, that wasn't the Frimpong who did the interview 😆

It's this Frimpon:

I haven't seen the interview, just saw that it said Frimmy on the front page. Didn't even donsider that it could be someone else. 😆
