#WengerOut: It was all about planes at the start of Arsenal's clash with West Brom at The Hawthorns, but the Gunners were plainly awful as they succumbed to another shocking defeat.


Yeah, it's that time of the week again, maybe #WengerOut

Arsenal were shocking at The Hawthorns on Saturday afternoon, going down 3-1 to West Bromwich Albion in a dreadful performance which highlighted everything which is currently wrong with the club.

The Gunners remain five points behind fourth-placed Liverpool, with their grip on a place in next season's Champions League seemingly slipping away week after week.

And obviously you know who the fans are blaming for the current malaise.

That's right, it's #WengerOut time.

There were some pre-match predictions of doom.



WEST BROMWICH, England -- Three thoughts from Arsenal's stunning 3-1 defeat at West Brom.

1. Arsenal fall to another defeat

Arsenal crashed to their fourth defeat in five Premier League matches on a drizzly afternoon at the Hawthorns. They were undone by two set-piece goals, both headers by West Brom right-back Craig Dawson, which sandwiched a scrappy effort by substitute Hal Robson-Kanu.

It was a flat, underwhelming performance by Arsene Wenger's side, with Mesut Ozil out injured and Alexis Sanchez only contributing sporadically from his left-wing position. The Chilean did fire in a fine equaliser but faded from view after a nasty tackle from James McClean in the first half. On another day dominated by discussion about the future of Arsene Wenger, which then turned to a plane-based discussion high above the Hawthorns, this limp display was exactly what Wenger didn't want.

Plane banners have become a curiously familiar sight when supporters are unhappy with their manager or owner, but seeing dueling banners was quite a remarkable sight. The first read, "No Contract #Wenger Out" and had widely been expected, but the second caught everyone by surprise, a counter-banner: "In Arsene We Trust #RespectAW".

Arsenal's performance somehow captured the debate. There was a wonderful team goal finished by the marvellous Sanchez, epitomising everything that has been good about the last two decades of Wenger's management, but this was overshadowed by concessions owing much to Arsenal not being physical enough, the type of problem that has dogged them for years. Petr Cech's first half injury, forcing a substitution, amplified a difficult afternoon.

Somehow, the nature of Arsenal's defeats -- and perhaps whole seasons too -- are frustratingly predictable, which might explain why so many supporters are unhappy.
