A Spurs fan being “very happy and proud” at perhaps managing to finish just fourth puts Arsenal’s season in a better perspective.

Thanks for your continued comments everyone.

I do think we’re in danger of swinging too rapidly from praising the team to ripping them apart. Yesterday’s performance was abject, but they can go some way to redeeming themselves if they show fight against City. It would at least show an understanding of what went wrong.

On a technical level, I don’t have a problem with these players, so I don’t agree with them being labelled average (with a few notable exceptions, of course). The main problem is the attitude, and that is Wenger’s biggest challenge now.

There will be no trophies for Arsenal for a few years now, we’ve dug too deep a hole for that. Wenger dumped too many players too soon and slotted in too much average youth, it will take some years to clean up this mess.

We are just a top four business plan now. AFC is all about the financial numbers, the club has lost its heart and doesn’t have the stomach to win things.

WOW….i went to bed last night and woke up in the early hours with a panicky feeling. I thought was my family okay?, was my dog okay? was my house okay? all the answers were yes, then i remembered…it was a panicky feeling about my gunners. I am so proud of them for what they accomplished this year, no other team could have suffered the injuries we have and still been in the fight for the premiership, but having got within touching distance, we have crumbled, the scum first now wigan. Why have we not learned, its only a mistake if you make it twice, but this has happened too many times now for excuses. Bolster this young squad with a quality experienced keeper, midfielder and striker. even if the boys thought winning was a stretch too far, what about second? beating the man-ure would have been almost as sweet.

These are the players worthy for now..
No goalkeeper,SAGNA,CAMPBELL,CLICHY,VERMEALEEN,SONG,GIBBS,GALLAS,FABREGAS,ROBIN VAN PERSIE,ARSHAVIN,EBOUE,NASRI,RAMBO,WALCOTT,rosicky,bendtner,eastmond,….ADD EXPERIENCE TO THIS SQUAD,THEN WE WILL BE THERE.THE ONCE IN CAPS ARE THE MAIN PLAYERS SO FAR.wilshere still has time,djorou am not sure,am sure he wil be a new signing next season,bendtner and walcot will still come up better just 22……any player not mentioned does not deserve getting wages in arsenal even if they are in the team. am so angry

Note..there is a difference between wantiing established players and established players wanting to join us.with our current record..city/spuds might attract better players.maybe kids love to join us.to cap it all..he doesnt like spending but prefers giving excuses like crooked injured players like eduardo are like new signings.heard man city have gotten boateng,ferguson snaped smalling under his long nose.i dont doubt his abilitites but i doubt and question his arrogance and pride…..he is the only coach that leaves a stupid/incostent player like diaby keep playing till the damage is done..

Arsene wenger is just overrated just because the competition EPL wasnt really tight when he was winning and even then he had strong maybe non technical players…example…nasri/denilson/diaby are good but not a match winners/fghters.wengers pride is makin it hard for him to concede he has lost it.he talks too much comparing arsenal with chelsea/mam utd.we are not in their class for now maybe before.wenger is far behind ferguson.truth be told…i will always love him but if someone like pep / jose could come..i wouldnt mind.i pray we dont end up cursing him if he decides to leave cos the image of the club is going down.

l still stand firm on my view;some players are not worth being on the starting line up or furthermore wear Arsenal shirt.WAlcot can not dribble he has few show stoppers then thinks he is great football is not all about running;pace & nice looks you have to be sharp be creative have the killer instinct;time ur runs;read the game;its a team effort not a one man show;loose the ball fall back to help;open the field;use you skill wisely.Others the likes of Diaby-out rightly not a whole season guy,lazy,lost focused,contented with position at the club………Silvestre a waste why we bought l cant understand;Bendtn should stop feeling nice even if he has scored crucial goals should review his work rate & commitment to team work;AA is a wake up call l believe you can do something do it for the funs not the board!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! we are dying for trophies restore our pride

Guys, Wenger caused all this disaster on us when he intentionally refused to let robin in at the start of second half. Our troubles did not even start in the last ten minutes, but just before the end of first half.

Wenger was a total fool yesterday. and now we are left to fight for the third spot which is really hanging in the balance. We have lost nine crucial points, of which if added to what we have now, we would be ahead of manchester and chelsea by atleast two and three points accordingly. Adding the two points lost at westham, we would already be winning the league.

Someone in the board needs to come out strongly and force wenger either to buy strong players or himself out.
