    Especially depressing because I genuinely believe that we could have signed Klopp as manager had we wanted to. There was a span of 1-2 years that there were a lot of top class managers available and unfortunately we completely let that window run.

    How the hell did Ramsey blow that?

    What is/was the point of playing Welbeck instead of Miki? Welbeck is like a worse Dirk Kuyt

    Exactly. This is the failure of the administration of the club. This inability to see the forest for the trees that has allowed the rest of the footballing world to move forward as if Arsenal was in a vacuum. It's soul crushing.

    Edit: Ruptured tendon for Kos. No World Cup. Alas.

    Would Kos even have started for France?

    Feel bad for him, however.

    Sorry for Kos.

    Too many give aways by the midfield.

    Arsenal with only 4 shots so far, all off target. They're 63' into the last defining match of the season, knowing they need goals, and this is what they offer.

    Xhaka sends one on target finally.

    Rather play AMN than Neny.

    Only 26 more shots to go before they score!

    It looks like Simione is watching the game from a tiki bar

    Where's that wonderkid Bendtner when we need him?!

    Mkhi on for Wilshire. Please at least be more productive!

    Takes Miki 45 seconds to produce more offense than we have all day

    Especially hate how many useless weak passes we're throwing into the box for Godin to constantly bat out. At this point I think we need a wonderstrike to score because our passes just aren't linking up. We have a better chance just letting Xhaka and Ramsey wildly smash shots at their goal.

    After the initial honeymoon period, all will realize Mkhi is just more trash we bought from United. How about we get someone decent? Maybe Martial? Hahaha.

    Is Monreal our best finisher? He's gotta be top 3.

    I think it will be hard to sell many of our players...gonna have to take a bath on some of them as few teams will be willing to pay much money for some of them.

    Also, looks like we’ve got a game with the Salzburg vs Marseille battle...

    For a player supposed to be fast Welbeck is constantly trailing his opponent. Guess speed of thought trumps speed in the legs.

    Get ball at the top of the penalty area.

    Play a diagonal ball to streaking Bellerin or Monreal.

    Put in a mediocre cross.

    Cross gets cleared.

    Wash, rinse, repeat.

    If we lose to Madrid I want them to drop the final just for the insane amount of times they go over from light contact and then get rewarded for it with Fk. Insane.
