Another points drop
If lfc wins their 2 games that's 11 points 🤣🤣
We are not playing like we can even go on a winning streak if Liverpool drop points.

I would always say this, under Arteta, we can’t raise our game. I mean look at the player and midfield combination today. Players were just everywhere and look totally disorganized. We couldn’t build any rhythm.
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by daveP(m): 8:41pm On Jan 04, 2025
Oyo for anyone hoping Liverpool will drop points at this rate of 18games left. We just have to do way much better cos these point dropping is not helping. Explain why we are the only team in top 6 with most draw soup.....


Unacceptable. Man better get some creative outlet to ease things in the middle. Cos if we gather wingers now and nobody to dey drop passes or assist like Ozil without much holding onto the ball, o pari o


And it is vexing that many keep saying we have shooters but only 1 shot in 2nd half and it was a tame effort from Rice because of who impeded too. Do these guys need coach to be telling them to shoot? Mtcheww

TBH I was not surprised. The reason why there is always uproar is that Arteta sometimes keep the team news away from the media.

Almost half of the squad are sick. Odegaard even managed to play the last game but we can all see how bad his performance was.

The second option is to play Ethan in midfield and Martinelli to the wing. I was not surprised really.

Nwaneri yellow card is Arsenal's 9th in the EPL for time wasting. The highest in the EPL this season so far.


Arteta, pls, work on this mid table mentality abeg. We do not need it. We don't.

Arteta always look for alternatives that later mar his game

The midfield was just porous, no creativity whatsoever until the introduction of Ordegarrd

See Martinelli sef, playing like headless chicken

I think that’s the reason he was removed

Trossard sef was empty today, playing like he had something to prove and he ended up proving nothing

Teta don dey lie say he never see that kine pk given his whole life. Lol

17yo boy don learn bad thing already. Lol. When coach no curb am and now e dey sweet Ethan Belle to dey do.


No Saka
No Kai

Disjointed and wack transition. We can't continue this nonsense till march abeg. Any other key injury and its over. Funny enough i didn't expect much from Trossard.

Since Nelli no dey that wing, it becomes more obvious that it is how the setup is for that wing that's the major problem.

Yellow card aside, that guy too dey lose ball. I mentioned this few months back. He does not have that pausa yet. Is that bad? no. As a youngster, you will sometimes struggle with decision making.

E be like say complacency don Dey do Arteta, at first, I thought it was maturity, but it seems his more comfortable with a draw, than to lose games and as such, will not strive to win every game, so long as we aren’t losing.

By the end of the season, if we lose out on the league, let’s all remember that it’s because of todays game.

After todays game, I expect the coach to be more ruthless with players that aren’t helping him to achieve his objectives. This transfer window is an opportunity for him to do so.

t’s why most coaches use the Jan transfer window to strengthen their squad.

He needs to cut off some players from his team, and he knows the ones that needs to get the axe.

Another thing that I’m worried about ,which might not be true, is the fact that, he looked more hungry and alert when he was competing with Pep and since man city are fumbling this season, he is lacking motivation to go for the league. If that is true, then we are in a deep mess, because I don’t see the hunger and desire from his body language .

Baba has resorted to playing mind games with Liverpool, hoping they drop points while not trying to get his acts together.

The fault is solely not on him, but on our players too that are not focused on trying to improve their level.

I’m afraid, the more serious ones among them will leave to a bigger team like Madrid if the rest don’t step up their game.
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by daveP(m): 10:26pm On Jan 04, 2025
I wish it was about the need for more ruthlessness.


It is about his own setup, expecting apples when he's planting Beans or Millet. A large % of the fanbase screamed when they saw the XI before the game. Yeah we know some players are sick and all that but is that the reason to act like it was way worse than than and had to sacrifice Partey in that manner? He has no biz at RB till tomorrow. I'll rather he finds another makeshift than this RB nonsense. It has never helped this team since he started doing it and that leads me to another problem with him-He will keep trying crap, expecting different results.



I have been crying about a 9 since last season but I'll have to add an attacking midfielder to the mix. Jesus was isolated upfront and creative took a drastic nosedive throughout and man didn't fix it.


It is better he gets more forwards to give better ideas to our entire approach cos we can't continue like this. It is unacceptable. To go far in UCL too, we'll need fresh ideas and legs beyond this regular. We need more shooting as well. Why? Because even with all these holding, wetin be diff?



We need fresh legs. 11 Windows is scary to imagine.

The angle of all that stats, however all not accurate as realized is that the GA from the midfielders are low and how Nelli is not doing well lately. The low forwards recruiting as well. This is no agenda though.
In one voice you said the stats are not accurate

In another voice you make inference from the stats

Oga if it s not accurate leave it

We have been trusting the process since 5 years ago, slot a new manager will win the league on his first season
He didn't buy players o apart from chiesa, and he hardly use him
He's using the same squad klopp left behind and took 3rd position

One idiot because he has access to phone and Internet will be asking stupid question like who do you want to replace him? Like arteta is our Messiah and doing us a favor or did slot dropped out of the sky

It’s okay to talk to your players but not always wanting to tell them what to do and where to stay, when you are a player just like them, and whenever he gets the ball under pressure he himself doesn’t know what to do.
Jorginho has completed his badges and is even mouthed to join Arteta's coaching team next year. One of the reasons he was given an extension
Re: Arsenal Fans Thread: The Red & White Army: 2025/2026 EPL Champions! by iamoyindamola(m): 6:48am On Jan 05, 2025
That's our seventh draw of the season, 5 coming from winning position
After last season we all agreed saka need backup and a CF should get us ahead only for our ogbonge manager to add another defender and a midfielder

If you fail to plan, you plan to fail

It's only in England where the refs are celebrities. That's because they live to attract attention to themselves. A penalty not given us better than a giving controversial one.

Especially Taylor, he is so full of himself. UEFA does not even recognise him.

It's not complacency it's intense pressure. Arteta knows he has to deliver this season because a third second finish would be very disappointing and hilarious whoever wins the league. Especially if it is Liverpool.

His biggest problem this season is the health of his team. There are so many injuries and illnesses, then you add stupid yellow cards and red cards.

Based on points he is still where he was last season and though he has made the team more difficult to beat, the question is will it be enough?

If he doesn't win the league this season he should consider it a failure. Let him pray that the owners will release money to rescue himself
