What do you actually suggest though :usure:

We've gone from laughing stock to bums for not getting top 4 :ehh:
In the grand scheme of things, it doesn’t matter what I suggest. It seems most Arsenal fans are happy with mediocrity.

Stan will keep Arteta on because this club is not his main priority. He’ll keep the tickets sky high whilst we settle for Europa league at best.

In Arteta we trust though.

Didn't watch, but I had a feeling Palace were gonna at least get a point. But when I saw no Tomi or Tierney, the best I hoped was a draw.

This international break was a momentum killer.

“Players were missing.”
“There was an international break.”
“Palace were always going to be tough.”
“The grass was too high.”
“The weather was too cold.”
“Arteta didn’t have his green tea.”
“It wasn’t a full moon.”

Its not that we're happy with mediocrity, the club was in a slow downward spiral for ages and has only started to rebuild, rebuilding with less funds than other top clubs too.

We have a very young squad with an inexperienced manager, compared to our expectations at the start of the season we aren't doing badly. Getting to that next stage soon is crucial though.

I had a feeling we were gonna lose last night so the result didn’t surprise me but the performance was absolutely shocking.

Palace came with a game plan to press us from the front and we looked nervous dealing with it all game. I don’t know if it was because of the international break but we looked a step slower today.

Now we’ve picked up a couple injuries, this is where not replenishing the squad in January could come back to bite us because it’s obvious Tavares is a defensive liability and if Partey is out for any significant time, then we’re going to be soft in the middle (even though he was shocking last night too).

The only saving grace is that I see Spurs dropping points unnecessarily as well but I don’t have faith in the players being able to bounce back now the pressure is on.
