Pathethic Arsenal show one of the worst ever performances. by Konstantin Mitov
Can you spot the problem with our 1:2 defeat to Ostersunds in the Europa League my dear old Arsenal friends? It was pathetic and embarrassing. This team is never winning the Europa League, especially with that manager. This is the sixth consecutive home defeat in knockout stages including defeats to Bayern multiple times, Monaco, Barcelona and now Ostersunds to this mighty list!
Watching this game reminded me of when we lost 8:2 at Old Trafford. It was that bad in terms of passing, possession, created chances, defending and any part of football you want. Wenger has managed longer that this team exists and he still struggles at home!
We know this manager is dead, but those players? Apart from Mkhitaryan and maybe Ospina,I’d get rid of all the other 9. Danny Welbeck has scored 13 league goals in 3 and half seasons for Arsenal. And he’s a striker, who proved how badly we need to get rid of him.
Jack was so bad, he couldn’t stop the ball. Honestly I was so pleased for him to see him subbed, because he was destroyed. No wonder Tottenham dominated us. This midfield will barely manage against a Sunday league team and guess what, we’re playing Man City next!
I honestly feel sorry for Hector Bellerin as he’s the only player playing on the right hand side, whether that’s in attack or defense, but after his comments about the “true” fans who never criticize the club, I won’t be too sad to see him leave.
Next onto Maitland-Niles, who may be a decent player in 10 years, he’s shocking now and it’s such an embarrassment to see him play for this football club, although the same can be said about Holding as well as most of the other players that were on the pitch.
Who do you pick in midfield against City. After seeing how bad things was, I’d happily pick Xhaka, who I honestly think is our worst buy in the last 5 years at least. Mikhy will be out for that game and I am worried, because we’ll likely get hammered.
Iwobi may have gotten an injury and that honestly would just save him the humiliation he will face on Sunday, because he couldn’t get past frankly average players! I thought it can’t get worse, but we may just be seeing the beginning of what Wenger has in store for us.
If Josh Kroenke is in London to see how this club is “managed”, all he needs to do is watch a football game played by Arsenal and he’ll see enough. Maybe he can call his dad and execute order 66 that will save us from this misery.
Worst thing of all is that Wenger may actually get the Carabao cup and then it will be all about those meaningless trophies nobody cares about that Wenger won and of course a new 2 year deal. Pathetic!
