OK, heres a chance fro all you Arsenal fans to voice your opinons and rants on what is wrong with them and the demise that has stiuck them over the past few seasons.

2 seasons ago they were pretty much invincible, yet yesterday they lost to West Brom, whats gone wrong?

Chelsea are better. And lets not forget, they had a lot of players injured yesterday. That result didn't suprise me at all.

Ive also noticed that without Henry Arsenal seem to lack insperation and that striking edge they used to have.

Technically Kirkland didnt save all shots cause they scored 1 goal, but I know what you mean. Bryan Robson was an Idiot for critisizing him after the game, he was nothing less than outstanding, IMO he should get and England call up now. :rolleyes:

No Viera and no Henry -> Arsenal is crap.

They depend to much on them, now that one is injured and one is sold they won't be anywhere near the title this year.

6/7 first teamers missed out on that game (1 came off injured after 30 minutes).

Henry
Campbell
Cole
Hleb
Gilberto
Ljungberg
van Persie


You take the equivilant players from any club.

Man Utd-
van nistlerooy
Ferdinand
Heinze
Ronaldo
Keane
Park
Richardson

Chelsea-
Drogba
Terry
Del Horno
Duff
Makelele
Wright-Phillips
Robben

Any team would struggle heavily if they lost those players.
The only positive we can take from it was that we outplayed them completely, I mena utterly, it was a super goal which won it for them. If we just got Reyes a bit of confidence we'd have no problem.

He is not matching them just sayin what if you had those players injured

anyways this will be a season to forget for Arsenal..... All we have looking forward to is gettin LUCKY in the CL like liverpool. (C)

That Nice Guy
Arsenal have been found out for their tactic, simply teams have worked out that playing the counter themselves against Arsenal means Arsenal have to attack; when Wnger is playing with 1 striker and many midfielders, suddenly possesion isnt a problem but converting the chances are.

A few seasons ago people didnt realise how to play against Arsenal until Sir Alex cleverly decided to play them at their own game and just sit back, pushing Henry, Reyes, Freddie, Gilberto and Viera forward allowed gaps at the back for United's very own counter to spring.

Against teams who dont do their research Arsenal are still invincible, never ever write them off.

TROD.
