does this guy ever stop? yesterday when chelsea scored a perfectly good goal I said I bet wenger moans about a foul. I said it sarcastically for even by his standards that would be stupid. but today of course wenger is moaning about the foul on his precioys bellerin. now im no arsenal fan far from it so for me keeping wenger there is great. but from their pov the man is an arrogant twit. so full of his 'we play my way' that its costs them loads of titles. I dont need to say it as we can all see it. theres no backbone in the side. his back four are all cry babies and his midfield has no enforcers. if he had swallowed his pride and bought a back four of basic solid ugly defenders hed have been the dominant force in england.

we were rubbish against citeh ….yes utter pants man. but we move on. theres been a lot of condemnation of Bilic, his tactics and the performance, and its all warranted. i do however think Bilic is still the right man for the club and i do think we still have a decent side. as Betty said, Bilic needs to get a grip when we play 'better' sides…we need to accept we are not as good on paper and because of that we need to approach the games accordingly. moving forwards i think snodgrass should replace feghouli in the side and that will improve us. in fact i think snoddy will really add some threat for us there. ayew is back shortly and kouyate i think is already back…so our options are looking better.

being reported today in the media that west ham are lining up Roberto Mancini to replace bilic if the team keep underperforming...truth? or just a nice headline because he was at the game on Wednesday who knows these days.....personally even if we did get rid of slav in the summer I don't think Mancini would be a good fit but that's only M.O. and the windows shut but guess what we are willing to pay £16million for joe hart lol got to love all this nonsense though some here do not

Is it just me or does Mark Noble look like a lost 8 year old . He seems to chase the ball from corner to corner with out ever getting near it
I said to my lad the other day, before his under 15,s game , don,t do a mark noble
He,s been a great servant but i think his time has gone

that's the old saying when things go badly wrong but it would appear nothing has been by our manager coaches & players.....last night was once again a dreadful display by the team one of many this season and there is little point in denying it and trying to claim that well it was citeh they have one of the best teams in the prem....the same citeh team that got mullered 4-0 themselves by everton in the league 2 weeks back.....if you give top players the time and space to play they will murder you and we were guilty on that front all match..so who decided on the game plan? well that is the manager and who do you get to execute that plan why the players of course...both failed....not going to dig out individuals here as we all saw it and all know who did what and when....but getting the basics right as a professional footballer/manager/coach is an absolute must so why don't we appear to do that?....frankly the way we played last night was like a bunch of kids at the park picking sides and playing but not as organised as that! our team just looked lost as to what we were meant to be doing....and this Saturday we go down to Southampton and they are not playing very well but on yesterdays display they will still have to much for us....that happens the tabloids will have a field day at our expense yet again.....so manager/coaches/players hang your heads in shame at that display show some backbone and organisation and prove to we the fans that you are worth the support we give....

are we sure thats not a typo and he's banned from diving for a year?

I did and I think I got away with it but apparently it upsets some people so much they cannot even say the words right or back anymore....be careful orgers you could make someone very upset so don't say you have not been warned

so its all over, thankfully. no negatives on this post - the positives are we made two decent additions to the squad in fonte and snoddy. before the window we started to play some very decent stuff so nothing drastic was needed anyway. ayew will be returning in a week or so and even though a lot of people think he's pants i say give him a bit of time he will be decent. for what its worth he's ghana captain and so far has led the team to the semis taking some big penalties for them. he needs to play in his best position imo which is attacking midfield so with the man we never speak of gone maybe this is the perfect chance for him to slot in there. lets not forget he was a good player at swansea. its all fingers crossed that andy stays fit as options there are minimal but i hope bilic persists with two up front and doesnt revert to one now that we've had a break….be positive slaven….

Time is up Sky. Time to stick away the yellow ties and branding. What a load of nonsense. They've made it into an event when it's a total non-event. All that's happened is all the clubs in the bottom four or five have paid through the nose for absolute cack, and a load of "who are yas" in the chumps. I really hope that Sky take a long hard look at this, they've embarrassed themselves. We all know that the big clubs and big players mo e in the summer, why do we all perpetuate this crap. As for our own business. We had no choice but to get rid of Payet. The two we got in are ok, but actually if you look at what we paid in the context of what others have paid, we've not done too bad. I'm glad Hogan didn't go through, he's another knee injury waiting to happen, especially at £15 million. Roll on to,or row night, when can get back to normality again. Who said Right Back?

apparently according to SSN Bilic made the decision based on Ayew coming back and sakho back from injury. still not convinced Ayew is a out and out striker and Sakho's injury record is fast becoming as bad as carrolls.
