Win against Bournemouth with a better performance than tonight and we’re back.

Tonight could easily have gone either way. Some good keeping and a moment of class from Martinelli and Havertz at the other end is not enough to convince me we’ve turned a corner yet.

Arsenal 1–0 Sporting FT. Got the win, but still not very convincing

I think that in the circumstances, Sporting have not been beaten at home in ages, Arsenal still reeling from the double blow of cup defeats and missing Saka and Timber, that 1-0 was a great result gained from an okay performance.

The biggest thing for me was that our heads didn’t drop and that was why we scored. It allayed my “team mentality” fears a little.

Whatever happened to that free flowing football we played a couple of seasons ago when we were banging in goals for fun !?

Mikel wanted ‘control’.

I’ve not enjoyed watching the football much this season either. But someone made an interesting comment recently, and my hope is: this is Mikel proving to everyone, including himself, that he can deliver a big trophy (at any cost). Next season he introduces more balance and creativity.

With some top quality signings, Arteta can get us playing more attractive football because if Man City get a points deduction, what other opposition is there?

That’s my way of keeping hope.

Cannot watch more seasons of this style even if we win shit. It’s fine for this season and for specific comps (safety first in knockout cup later rounds …okay) but I need more exciting play over the season.

I absolutely fucking despise this team. I get being conservative to some degree but these constant 30 second throw-ins, constant pissing around trying to draw in the press then not even trying to play out anyway.

I didn’t even hate our constant 4th place sides like I hate this fucking team.

Where is this boat of pleasure Arteta was talking about? There is nothing to enjoy.

Imagine losing the LC final, being booted out the FA Cup and now starting a monstrous bottle job of the league… and he changes NOTHING in that time!!!

And gets a fucking new contract lol this club isn’t serious at all.

I don’t want to see him lead us into another season if he bottles this.

I’ve never known a manager of a top club like Arsenal, win absolutely nothing from 2020 (with a team he didn’t even build), bottle 4 league titles and be rewarded with a new contract. It’s genuinely laughable.

I knew that CC final game was gonna kill our season.

Completely crushed all confidence out of this team.

Negative? Yes, but I can only comment on what I’m seeing.

Sick of this team and this cunt of a manager.
