Review: Arsenal 1 - Chelsea 4

In short, ouch. Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. Really,if Le Boss thinks we're still fine, and this team is still maturing, then well, he's off his meds. What makes it all the more painful is that in some way, the boys played well, especially at the start. But there's a stark imbalance in the team - great stuff passing, passing, passing, but every time Chelski came beyond the half-way line, it was panic stations.

So if we don't need good defensive midfielders and a good defence, then we live on planet Mars. Is it my imagination or have things gone downhill defensively since Mohawk Billy got injured?? Interesting. Anyway, if we're ever going to get whipped by Chelski, must as well be at an inconsequential game as this one was.

This was painful, there's no doubt. But what the heck, at least it's made some things clear: (a) Ade must go; he's absolutely lost it. Lazy lazy lazy again. Bent Nick's commitment stood in stark contrast. He did the things Ade used to do: run, getting in there, making his presence felt. (b) Diaby's having such a bad string of performances, it's starting to make Song look good.

So apart from getting humiliated on our home patch, there's something potentially more humiliating next weekend: Man U could clinch the title. And let's just wait for it. Another whipping, ass-mauling, made-to-look impotent, similar to male-performance-issues type of defeat could be on the line. Of course, as an Arse fan, I hope not, will expect us to halt the title charge, but really...I don't know.

Le Boss has been saying the same ole crap about keeping the bulk of the team next season. Oh yes, let's see how he gets to see it again after this. Maybe some will do the talking for him. My money's on RVP leaving. Ade too (I hope). Then he would have no choice than to rebuild.

So there. Got whipped by Chelski. Hurts like having been ripped a new a-hole. But c'est la vie. We've got another 4 more months to start dreaming again.

The fugged thing is that if RVP leaves, dumb ass Wenger will just 'give a chance to one of our talented youngsters'. Haven't you heard? Buying top players stifles the poor little young ones we have in the nest.

Fug the idiotic 'youth policy/philosophy'. I'm tired of listening to Wenger pretend we've had a good season.

Last season was a good season. We nearly won the title and played well in the Champions League.

Since then what? Short and simple... We've regressed. if that's what you call building a team then maybe I was wrong to shout "Sivaji kayu" when i was a kid.

One thing that sums up the fact that Wenger is completely out of touch/delusional is that he played Bendtner as a winger.
