    And Sanchez is holding his hammie? Being replaced by Iwobi.

    With 25 mins to go, we still have time for things to get worse, don't we?

    Did the club do a better fascist job of suppressing the anti-Wenger banners today? Haven't seen any shown on NBC.

    But the club can't suppress what the fans chant or sing. Why so quiet on that front?

    I'm still wondering what that stadium-wide chant was about 10 mins ago.

    Ozil misses another near sitter. As brilliant as he is in other ways, I'm convinced he just doesn't have that lethal goal-scorer thing... not even close.

    TBF, that's not his game. He looks gassed out there now though.

    Yup. That's basically my point. As much as some people, Wenger included, have tried to induce him to become a goal scorer, I've never seen it.

    Which is maddening. The best #10 on the planet and some want more goals from him.

    Since Coq and Iwobi came on we've really lost our bite.

    Both teams have had some terrible finishing today.

    Wenger has ********ed up Iwobi's development.

    That was a nice goal.

    Not a keeper in the world that gets to that.

    Indeed! But the celebration was a bit over the top perhaps. Don't they know that our result today is futile? Or do you think that somehow the players on the pitch don't know what's gone on at Anfield?

    There are many games that make up a season, but it's not hard to cast your mind back to our opening loss against Liverpool.

    Oh well, it's a new era for Arsenal. What manager will lead us? Which stars will depart? How will we cope with Thursdays in the Yerpa league?

    Only the Spanish clubs take Europa seriously.

    A quick elimination would be best for us to focus on Top 4.

    Pragmatic but heartless. Plus, our European trophy cabinet is barer than it should be... why not go for it? It ended up turning Maureen's head now didn't it? ;)

    Perhaps the biggest surprise for me today was the lack of protests at the Grove.

    No "time to go Arsene" banners (that they showed). No similar chants (at least that I heard).

    Leaves me scratching my head. Did all the #WengerOut's stay away? Or are the vast majority of Arsenal fans just too "well mannered"? Neither of those conclusions makes total sense to me.

    I'll laugh if Bayern get kicked out of the UCl and enter EL and draw us.

    I wish I was mad, but what's the point. The team played well to end the season but they usually do. Too many blown games and wasted opportunities. 5th is a good finish for this team, no point in playing in the CL. Excited for the same story lines the next 2 years. :rolleyes:

    After seeing that Despicable Me 3 football promo on NBC an hour ago (funny wasn't it!!!) I'll take a couple of Minions in my Starting XI this Saturday for the FA Cup Final at Wembley, COYF'n'G!!!

    Let's spoil John Terry's going away party/double at Wembley this Saturday, besides, last time I checked, the seats at Wembley are painted RED, NOT BLUE!!!

    I heard on the Beeb podcast that our fans were singing against the owner. So I'm putting 2 and 2 together and think this might be what I heard earlier:

    "Get out of out club, get out of out club, Stanley Kroenke get out of out club"

    I have no problems with that. But what I found interesting that Wenger was (largely) spared.

    Maybe fans are holding their tongues until after the FA Cup?

    Well, although Harry Kane beat out Alexis for his second straight Golden Boot, we do have some other awards to give out:

    Nicki Minaj won the Golden Booty for the umpteenth consecutive year, beating out arch rival Kim Kardashian for that prestigious (?!?!) award. :laugh::):ROFLMAO::p yummy
