Everyone clammering for Broja and he's done nothing. 

What’s he meant to do in 20 mins when we’re trailing in a dogsh*t side that have given up? Also, the run down the left channel and cut back to Gallagher is more than Aubameyang done in the previous 70 minutes.

Now we don't even look like scoring. Tell me how this is better?

Potter’s just in the door and hasn’t made a single singing yet. No one can be pleased with this standard of play but you’re not giving him a fair crack either.

I’ll tell you why, because our transfer decisions have been awful for 5-6 years now. We’ve tightened the purse strings when we should’ve splurged, then wasted countless millions on panic buys. Each manager has a 2-3 year shelf life and the next man in the door has to implement their new style with the same squad.

Changing managers regularly shouldn’t be an issue if you have a competent Sporting Director. Bayern & Madrid have sacked their managers as often as we have in recent years but the quality of their teams stay the same.

I must stress once again, to concede a goal shouldn't be a problem, the problem is that we don't come close to scoring at all.

In the opposition half we have looked totally lost, and probably the hardest attack in the league to define how we attack.

City have a far superior set up to us in terms of scouting and identifying players. We have bought a bunch of players who simply don’t fit the way we play.

Exactly, so we cannot expect to challenge for the title then. The previous board left us in a poor condition. 

90 mins and this team haven‘t created sh*t. We didn‘t even get a honeymoon period with Potter.  The American owners have destroyed us. Even if they sack Potter they would bring in someone like Postecoglou. We are finished.

We’ve been embarrassed several times this season, but this really takes the cake. 

I still think an inept Leeds team killing us 3-0 was far worse.

I think you missed my point. The fact that he could achieve that with the sh*t we have should be seen as a massive success. Also, winning the Champions League is the biggest win of them all, so I don't know why you are waving that away like it's nothing.

I’ve said many times before, he deserves immense credit for the 3/4 month run up until winning the CL. What happened in the 13 months after that?

I can’t accept your point when he’s spent over £200M to improve the “sh*t” yet arguably makes us worse.

It isn't, but this idea that Tuchel was doing a great job right up until his sacking is a myth. There was no evidence he had a clue to turnaround our performances once we went into steep decline.

Fundamentally, we just haven't been a good side for most of the calendar year.

He still kept us in touching distance of Top 4 in both seasons. If we had kept faith and accepted that this is the transition year, we may have a better squad next season. Arsenal very much have benefited from having a core group of players even if this is a fluke season for them.

Now we look like finishing 10th without any hope of ever getting Top 4

 

GP is AVB levels.. a very costly experiment by the naive owners.. he has served up absolute horseshot for the last 5 managers.. Even SFL did better than this one.. looks dire.. no patterns of play.. no belief in the club...

I agree, but this one isn’t looking much better with the purchases in the summer: Aubameyang, Cucurella & Sterling were clearly bad signings from the get go. The first has always had attitude problems and was shipped off by Arsenal for good reason, the second we massively overpaid and the third wasn’t getting a game at city for a reason.
