Let it out
I know you’ve had it rough this season.
We’ve been through some hard times together.
It’s been disappointing.
… but the end is nigh.
So instead of a big match preview about how amazing it would be to down Troy Deeney today, why don’t we make this a farewell post to an average season, written by you?
Share your hopes, dreams, and even those ‘OH MY GOD I CAN’T BELIEVE THAT HAPPENED’ moments just so you can vent. Let’s leave it all behind us.
Today is about getting over the pain. Admitting that it was shit this year, and maybe opening the door for a hopeful Premier League next season.
Before I hand the keys over, I just want to say thank you for your dedicated support this year. I’ve been to some dark places this year, so know this… nothing makes me happier than knowing that no matter how bad it gets, there’s always someone waiting in the comments section ready to call me an oatmilk drinking whopper who doesn’t know shit about football. I love you all. You make this supporting Arsenal malarkey a lot more fun than it should be. Thank you.
So go on… this post is for you, let it all out, no one here is going to judge those tears (they will).

Eddie needs to get the weight of his passes much better The reverse pass to Nelson was so slow and let the LB got onto Nelson. Too relaxed I say.
do we still have the cojones???
SMH
Need a Séb Haller goal from West Ham.
Come on!
This game is reminding me of Emery days
Holding Luiz and Tierney in A back 3 withe AMN and Saka as wingbacks is the right call for the final.
Saka should have come on instead of kola. Tierney dropping into back 3.
Holding is just laughing nervously at how crap David Luiz is.
I don’t blame Nketiah for wanting to pass the ball to Auba ,it was a good gesture. But a more experienced player (or a smarter one ?) would have made the goalkeeper commit and then passed the ball for Auba to finish it into an empty net.
Most irritating about Holding is his silly smile when he fucks up like Ole
Our technical level is too low.
Grealish and Eze types should be on the list
Sorry. But who did Nelson see when he crossed???
Get the ball to Auba!!!!!
Habesha,
Still pretty shit!
TR7
It’s not Emery days, it’s not Wenger days it’s Arsenal the last number of years.
Auba is desperate
Why isn’t Masima carded?
Not a booking mike Dean ?? Breaking the rules just for arsenal
“This game is reminding me of Emery days”
If we play an open game with these players it doesn’t matter who our manager is.
Same as at Vicarage Road earlier in the season, their midfield ability-wise is no way inferior to ours. They can go toe-to-toe with us and look more powerful.
Grealish has scored for Villa
Grealish scores to keep Villa up. 7 minutes and change left
Congrats Watford. U don’t need to worry about staying up. Villa just got a lead.
Grealish scores.
Man has kept them up this season, top player.
Kind of pity Bournemouth
It’s villa that will send Watford down not us.
Westham equalized
Squeaky bum time for Villa
West Ham equalise.
Villa staying up deserve
If Westham scores again ….
hahaha scratch that let’s see
I think even I would favor my chances against Kola. In football I mean… in a brawl he would kick my ass. Defending in space really isn’t his thing.
Antonio is going to break Villa’s heart
Paulinho
Would you take two or three quality midfielders incoming if it meant selling both Aubameyang/Lacazette and re-signing Giroud as the #9 (one yr left)?
Actually if Watford got an equaliser they may have a chance. Villa surrendered a short lived lead unfortunately
Oh great.. hopefully Tierney isn’t seriously injured.
What’s Holding doing up there?
When Watford go down, I would not mind if we were to bid for Etienne Capoue.
Dream10 – I would sell Lacazette, Guendouzi. Laca and Auba is too much for me.
Get where you are coming from though. Seems easier to bring in pacy forwards than get real quality in midfield.
auba will get it
capoue is good.
WAtford getting desperate. We have openings. If we can capitalise
Brendan Rodgers absolute bottle job. Completely choked finishing in the top 4.
just need a pen tho
Risk is Dean pulls another Riley and gave ‘em a pen
“Brendan Rodgers absolute bottle job. Completely choked finishing in the top 4.”
He will console himself with having a squad full of wonderful human beings.
Tbh. Nelson should have passed ASAp once he got past a couple
Nelson has looked good today.
Both Burney and Sheffield United are losing. We can get the 8th spot.
Why us Torreira running around with a Guinea Pig on his head?
Yeah you are right Nelson has been sharp and showing of his 1-1 skills.
Guy has more technique than I thought.
Left
No it’s a non Italian non Pork product.
Holding has been shocking today absolutely shocking
Holding is too weak!
“He will console himself with having a squad full of wonderful human beings.”
They ‘showed great character to even be in the running’ or some shit.
Total post-lockdown capitulation.
Upson a really ordinary pundit. Unpleasant voice too.
Did he really know if Torreira touched the ball. What’s this ref rightfully gave a FK
Anyway. It’s done for Watford I ‘m sure
Holding all over the show
Holding letting Deeney eat him up there
Atrocious performance from Holding, very much a lower division defender.
Nelson

Both Burney and Sheffield United are losing. We can get the 8th spot.
does that take us to Europe?
AMN has to start in the final. Our best player today.
Leicester are Brenda all over – look great until the pressures on.
Our defense is weak.
It’s be really something if Watford could get 2 Even when playing Arsenal
does 8th position take us to Europe?
Gazzap
Where’s Bellerin?
zaco
No
We just gave up!
Watford screwed themselves getting rid of Pearson
Play like this against Chelsea next week and they will throttle Arsenal as they did in the EL final last season.
No 7th is Europe. I did wonder what would happen if Man Utd or city won a European cup whether England gets a nother place. But I’ve not found out.
I’m trying to be a better person and not hate people.. but I hate David Luiz.
Dissenter
Brenda has left you with your foot in your mouth there lad hasn’t he….
Positively giddy early season with them flying, gone awfully quiet on them since.
Villa with the Great Escape!
Gazzap
I asked that the other day and apparently not.
As it stands 7th gets a EL place unless we win the Cup.
Bye bye Watford and Deeny… Enjoy the Championship with a lot of cojones. Hahaha
Quality scenes at Villa
CC
To be fair Brenda is a quality manager. Lecister did bottle it but also they have about the 6th best first 11 so they finished above their level.
2H performance just short of a disgrace when 3 up at HT.
With all that firepower and practically no pressure. Tentative and erratic display.
Yes. Lacking technical and flair. Not just physique and pace.
The gap is huge. Real work starts now. …
Next season Luiz should not be anything more than our 4th or 5th choice. Gave away 5 penalties this season.
5!!!!!
Directly involved in the 2 goals we conceded. Did all he can to help Watford score a 3rd.
Well that ends the season then… thank God.. Bring on the Cup.. just win… don’t care how.
Brenda has left you with your foot in your mouth there lad hasn’t he….Positively giddy early season with them flying, gone awfully quiet on them since.
Their season went to shit when they sold Chilwell to city and replaced him with Tierney
How can Holding be blamed for Luiz never being in the right position is beyond me. Time and time again Holding just repel the ball while David Luiz just misses the ball, or is nowhere the danger to interfere.
Kolasinac and Luiz were the reasons why Watford got a foothold in the game.
we better have a good plan against Chavs.
Today was another defensive shit show
AMN was great
should start
I hate united really didn’t want them in the CL they are going to have all the momentum them next season them and Chelsea are gonna be dangerous.
“Their season went to shit when they sold Chilwell to city and replaced him with Tierney“
😂😂
Mid
Luiz is very weak in a back 4 formation.
We did Villa favour by helping them stay in PL. First by losing to them and then by defeating Villa.
Just give us Grealish on the cheap. All will be forgotten.
How bad has Kola become though? He seems scared when he has the ball at his feet. Sad to watch
Well one would be forgiven to think arsenal were the side fighting relegation. Another crap second half.
We’ve been mugged by Brighton, villa and almost by Watford, all sides we should be thrashing. From the looks of it, we seem to be utter trash when needing to play positive football.
What a horrendous performance, and using a full 1st team too. I hope we aren’t turning into a sit back play on the counter type of side.
Jump up a few places in the final league table and at least don’t have the shame to finish below Burnley. Small mercies.
Quite impressed with Nketiah in his overall play when he came on.
Holding did himself no favours today. A very shaky game from him.
Willock again didn’t take his chance starting an EPL match.
Luiz saw Dawson give away 2 and wanted to equal him.
Pedro
I fucking told you Wolves and the Spud’s could drop points on the final day. We’ve fucked up massively – a couple of healthy wins against Villa and Watford and we go into the Cup final as a straight match with no added pressure.
Really piss poor performance under Arteta.
Yeah, Dissenter shot his load all over Leicester in back in August, chest-pumping and asking who was still laughing at him for predicting Leicester would finish in the top 4.
Kind of like saying Federer should retire from tennis after just 1 set of an epic 5 set Wimbledon final.
Arsenal finished 3 points behind super Nuno’s Wolves.
Saucy
Arteta man-management disasterclass again. Other than bringing on Reiss who was very sharp today , all the other subs just helped Watford .
RockyRoe
“I hope we aren’t turning into a sit back play on the counter type of side.”
Well that will be the order of the day again against Chelsea.
If we see this going into next season though it will be a little disappointing.
Not Teets ball that was advertised.
@Le grovers
What’s a good season next year?
Mines this in this order:
5th in the league
Reaching Europe League final
Developlement of fast flowing attacking creative football
Furher development of youth
What I would settle for but be unhappy with
Sixth spot in the league.
7/8th and no serious runs in any of the cups and we have to sling arteta.

I,m not surprised you’re the first one to come at me. They ran out of gas after the restart. I’ve been saying they will miss out for several, weeks now.
The Leicester city top-4 prediction came about from the player poverty conversations from last season. You seem to have accepted that notion of player poetry too so what’s your point?
Wasi
Did you see the stat Sky put up?
Ben D
Kola has always been very very poor with his ball his feet. Actually , other than charging down the line like a blind bull, all other aspects of his game are poor.
Sell and replace with Malang Sarr.
