Gutted! by CT
Before tonight’s game with Monaco, I was fairly optimistic after four years of drawing against stronger opponents and only being narrowly defeated, we finally had a great opportunity to make it through to the quarter finals of the Champions League. But after watching that absolutely disgusting display, which took me by surprise to say the least, has left me wondering what the problem actually is at Arsenal.
What I’ve came down to is one major flaw in our team. We once had Tony Adams and Patrick Vieira as captains. People to look to when we weren’t playing our best. Someone to relay on to tell the big guns in the team to step up and get working harder. Now who do we have? Per Mertesacker. Need I say more..after his utterly useful performance once again.
And even worse we have a manager who just sits down and does nothing to try and inspire his team. Maybe if Wenger had fired into Ozil from the sidelines, he might have gotten a well needed kick up the ass. Its a shame because I believe this team had the capability to go and destroy Monaco tonight.
But we’ve got to give the French side credit where credits due. They totally deserved to win the game. It just seems like we Arsenal fans are stuck on repeat with the same old problems every year.
I wonder if this will ever change.
