I urge patience amongst the Arsenal fans. Trust the process. 
However if not, Allardyce or Pardew are great alternatives who could lead Arsenal back to mid table where they belong.

There's McClaren and Pulis if those two turn them down.

You’re right they’re spoilt for choice. A genius like Pulis could turn these losses at home to Burnley into draws.

I said it before, it will be like last season, we'll play them just as they pick up a win or two. We never got a chance to play Emery last season, we had to play Arteta when he got the team in a honeymoon period. 

Arsenals next few games are:

Southampton

Everton 

Man City

Chelsea

They could actually be in the bottom 3 at Christmas.

The Man City match is a League Cup match, but your point is still valid.

If we’re the ones out of that list to lose to them I will be mightily pissed off. We need Arteta to get a plucky backs to the wall draw against Southampton and keep his job. I don’t want a new manager bounce when we play them.

McClaren (and Casper) is back at Derby upgrading the carpets and baby sitting Rooney.

Chelsea have a knack of losing to teams who are in sh*t form. Happens at Everton and West Ham every year. 

Here’s my theory - Arsenals form including their fa cup win was just new manager bounce and Arteta is a poor manager

If we lose to Arsenal we’ve only got ourselves to blame. Aubameyang aside (when in form) their squad is worse than a lot of the league.

I can see us losing to Arsenal and it will be classed as “their greatest performance of the season”

Not to mention we were crawling with injuries and Anthony Taylor gave Arsenal everything in that game. 

As amusing as this is, Evra needs to be binned as a pundit, completely unprofessional to come out with this. Not only does he have constant fanboy outrages on TV whenever his team are losing (then immediately calms down again when they comeback and is grinning his gums off). He's now telling inside stories from other players and causing dissent towards other teams dressing rooms. I would be livid if he released a story about JT saying this about one of our Captains here, you just don't do that. 

Am I wrong here? Personally, I just don't like Evra as a pundit, but this really was the icing on the cake here.

Fulham did to Liverpool what every team should be doing, they gave their all and got something out of the game. If we saw more of this, Liverpool would be dropping a lot more points.

According the the Daily Express Liverpool have won 19 Premier League titles

Evra is a prize A bellend. You only have to watch his chicken lickin’ or fan karate kick skills to know that. Offers no analysis and only on Sky to cause controversy and trigger people as far as I can see. I hardly ever watch the punditry unless it’s Roy Keane whose misrerabilist schtick is actually entertaining. 

Arteta's struggles just goes to show that it's not as easy as it looks. He's essentially been tutored by one of the greatest coaches of the modern era and he's failing miserably... If anything it looks like he's over coaching that Arsenal team. He's been seen dictating every pass the team makes before. 

Frank isn't perfect as a coach but the squad he inherited last season wasn't too dissimilar to what Arteta did with Arsenal. Frank seems to be improving meanwhile Arteta had a new coach bounce but this season has looked completely devoid off ideas and ability... Long may it continue.

I love the revisionism when it comes to Frank, how he inherited such a great side. But before Frank came everyone had us pegged for a 3rd Mourinho season, Frank gone in 3 months, the lot. Only 2 pundits in the UK had us in the top 4 predictions, that was Matthew Upson and Gullit. I remember that whole summer it was just rivals taking the piss about how we're left with Tammy Abraham, Sancho's reject in Pulisic to replace Hazard, Hazard's gone, Sarri left us, transfer ban, etc. 

Yet Frank still pulled off a top 4 finish and got into a cup final, he beat every top 6 team last season. Nobody would've figured that. But now all of a sudden it was an easy job for him? I would say Arteta has it more difficult than Frank, but Franks job was a very difficult one I don't care what anyone says. And who would you rather have out of the two? Frank all the f**king way, he's done an outstanding job. Even if he isn't the man for this role, I think he's left us in a good position regardless, any manager would want to come here and manage these players. 

Aubameyang has scored more goals for the opposition then he has for Arsenal at the Emirates this season.

Watching the ArsenalFanTV reaction to that Burnley goal has given me life to see out 2020. The look on their mugs after that went in is priceless. 

Tough run coming up. Regardless of how poor they are Arsenal turn up against us of late, West ham always get lucky and tend to have us play poorly against them and Wolves are due someone to help them out.

We come out of these 3 games with 9 points and we can start to dare to dream of a title challange imo.
