Arsenal bowed out of the running for the Top 4 race in a meek fashion.
We didn’t show up. The players were too nervous. They bottled the biggest night of their careers and I don’t think anyone left that field feeling good about what they offered up.
Newcastle were superb, we can’t deny that, they worked harder than us, and played like they were the team that had the Champions League on the line.
There can be no excuse. It wasn’t good enough. 5th will be our position this year and when all is said and done it’s about where we deserve to finish.
Mad as it sounds, it was probably best we tanked in that way. There are no doubts about where we lack quality, there are some players that Arteta will aggressively move out of the club this summer, and it is still absolutely clear where we need to add talent.
There are big shouts for our lack of movement in the January transfer window. It’s going to be hard to fight that narrative today, but I’m still calm about my view there… if you don’t think anyone can improve you, don’t just sign a body. Remember, we bid for the most expensive striker in Europe, our lack of movement was talent related, not because of ambition drain. My angst is less about what we did with our first team and more about what we missed with the squad we had.
There was a goalscorer within the ranks in Eddie. There was a capable 4th choice midfielder in Mo Elneny. Though hindsight is a wonderful thing, it’s difficult to believe William Saliba would have been a bad shout for our 3rd choice defender. Mikel Arteta’s season unravelled because he was too transactional with his squad. It’s a bug in his system. He only found ESR because of a covid outbreak. We only learned that Mo and Eddie would do a job because of injuries and shocking form. If you don’t trust players, you end up with an overburned squad, needless injuries, and squad players that don’t give a fuck.
Our season fell down because Thomas Partey, Tomiyasu, and Kieran Tierney can’t play 50 game seasons. If we’re honest, nor can Bukayo or ESR at the moment.
That still doesn’t account for the stage fright the team encountered yesterday, but we need to be very careful about calling time on the players or savaging their character. That’s lazy analysis. The likelihood is we’ll finish 1 point behind Spurs this season. 1 point isn’t the difference between shit character and elite mentality. It’s the difference between circumstances. Spurs has the best striking partnership in the league (world) and they have an average age of 29, they are both seasoned, they’ve never won a trophy, but they’ve been around long enough to understand the emotions around competing for things. Our striker hasn’t started 15 Premier League games this season, our other one stopped scoring goals.
Let’s talk about Spurs though, I will put it out there now; they are going to have a very fucking rough season next year.
- Harry Kane and Son will never have a season without injury like this again. Look at how shite they were against Burnely when they had to manage 3 games in a week. Champions League requires you play a first-team in every game from September. Older strikers can’t deal with that. Conte’s historical record will very clearly show he doesn’t manage European competition very well.
- Spurs don’t have massive money to spend this summer. If Conte gets Top 4, he is going to be a nightmare for Levy. There are no fuck-you-money cheques coming out of that part of North London. Remember, the worst season for Antonio at Chelsea was the one after he won the league and he made territory moves.
- Spurs will never get the luck they had this season. 3rd top scorer… own goal? Are you fucking kidding me?
They will be lucky to get 60 points this season. They took the sugar high of Conte, it might look like they are on the rise, but I assure you, it will come crashing down.
Now let’s talk about Arsenal.
Mikel Arteta is a ruthless operator and he will exact some big moves on his squad this summer. Cedric, Tavares, Xhaka, Pepe, and Mo could very well see the exit door. There might also be a more concerted effort to look at some painful realities: Both our fullbacks are extremely injury prone and so is our centre midfield maestro. We won 6 of 7 prior to the Partey injury… we totally fucked the top 4 after.
We hit our target this season. Europe is what the club planned for. 4th was the stretch goal, then it was the SURELY goal, now we are all in pain. But I’ve said all year, our feelings don’t change the target. We haven’t failed. If you are brutally honest, Champions League football for us next season might have been damaging to a squad that isn’t ready for multiple games a week. But… back to the plan. It is Top 4 next season, then it’s a title charge. Next season, there’s no flakiness from me on targets, I want top 4. He has had enough time, and he will have had enough money to take us to where we need to go.
Now let’s talk about the summer. It will be a blockbuster one again. The job to be done has never been clearer.
We need a proper striker that can run the lines, bully defenders, create an aerial threat, and score some fucking goals. I don’t want to see Gabriel Jesus, I want to see Tammy Abrahams or someone that lives in his world.
We need a proper centre midfielder that can compete with Thomas Partey. I want someone robust, that can lead, be a final ball merchant from deep, with the ability to offer us flex in the system.
There needs to be defensive considerations. Our fullbacks are brittle. KT has only been available for 57% of our Premier League games. That’s not good enough. Tomiyasu has only played 1600 Premier League minutes. It’s not good enough. Aaron Hicky, the Scottish 19 yr old that can play left or right-back feels smart. William Saliba, who can play right-back or CB is also a gift, he has 4000 minutes of experience, he is ready.
Then add another forward that can play across the frontline like Marcus Rashford or Gabriel Jesus if he’s cheaper than £60m.
The way this season ended has been painful. Arteta hasn’t managed the squad as well as he could have. Our players haven’t been as robust as we might have hoped. Inexperience has cost us.
… but we are still the hottest project in Europe for young players.
The boys could still finish on 69 points, which is exceptional considering the start, and the fact these chaps are part of the youngest squad in the league should not go unseen. These boys, despite the disappointment, will have learned a lot about themselves, even in failure (especially). They will get better.
Arteta tends to learn from his mistakes, he will be a better manager next season, and hopefully rectify the issues that have plagued him this season. He should hire more experience into the club, he should treat squad players better, and he needs to force the club to move fast this summer.
The fans are back on board. We haven’t been this united in 20 years. It hasn’t been this much fun for a very long time.
We were competing with 2 games to go, that feels painful because it went badly, but be real… no one expected this season to be this competitive. It has been a pleasant surprise even if the end game was very sad.
When the dust settled on 5th in the league, it won’t feel glorious, but it will be regarded as progress and a decent run in the first season of a new strategy.
Next season is about finding stability, improving weaknesses, and making sure top 4 is ours, and we’re in the Champions League.
Right, that’s me done. Listen to our podcast if you are brave enough. x

englandsbest Are you actually programmed to say daft things? You are correct though, Arteta didn’t sign Xhaka or Pepe but he has been the one involved in misusing them. He gave Xhaka a new contract and has treated Pepe like an outsider. Again you are correct, I blame Arteta for many things, including his ludicrous decision to reward Xhaka. Personally, I feel that if Xhaka had left when he wanted to leave, we’d have benefited far more. I’m also convinced that the PR machine has worked wonders when it comes to the other players feelings about Xhaka. Giving him preferential… Read more »

Been saying since the end of January that the executives will be judged on the January TW, well finally Amy Lawrence from the Athletic did just that: The greatest factor in Arsenal’s top-four fade has its roots in deep conversations and big decisions made in the offices at London Colney in January. In January Arsenal tumbled out of both domestic cups, overstretched the squad, and at the same time made a hugely significant change to the player pool with their approach to the transfer window. It seemed like the obvious time to bolster and they did try. Ultimately though, Arsenal… Read more »

Sometimes I think the anti-arteta brigade is one person, they all chant the same mantra: ‘blame Arteta for everything’. And they all come out with the same solution: ‘sack Arteta’. And they all act as if a derelict squad can be replaced overnight by a wave of a magic wand. There was no silver bullet for Arsenal, the Club needed fixing from top to bottom. And from what we’ve seen, the Club has come a considerable distance in that direction. Yes, Arteta has made mistakes – but you’d expect that from a rookie learning afoot, on the job.

I think Iwobi scored a consolation but our ole boy Giroud and Hazard owned that night.

Great atmosphere in the ground for this EL final between the fans but the football on show is not living up to the occasion.
Mediocre football is being kind.

For 50Million + have we really upgraded on David Luiz?

Good passer though and taller than Ben 😂
What a great moment for our former Academy player, Glen Kamara. Joined us in 2012 as 16 year old but couldn’t break into the squad. Two miserable loan spells at Southend and Colchester before we released him. Dundee picked him up and then Rangers paid only 50k for him.
Now he’s starting in left midfield in the Europa League final and managed by another player who didn’t quite work out for us, Giovanni Von Bronkhorst. Gives us something to root for after a miserable week with Arsenal.
Aribos a decent player for rangers, always liked him at Brentford, not sure how he’d do in prem tho

“It’s not like Arsenal was in the 4th division when he came on board.”

This one is worse than all the others
Why did I have to love football ?
Ugh
You know next year Newcastle will be competing with us
I don’t understand how the premier League ratified that deal when they have such bad human rights violations
To be honest the way we have ended the season has been very disappointing and are clearly not the fourth best side in the EPL and probably not the fifth.
The Wenger weak psychology legacy in must win games lives on.
We are a mid table side flattering to deceive. That we are better. what other conclusion can be reached after 13 defeats in a season?
Arteta should be judged not on his haircut or what he says but on the teams performances.-based on that there are still big questions about whether the team is making enough progress.
This Rangers side was out together with very little money

This gets them into the CL and those funds will give them dominance in their domestic league for years to come.

That’s hogwash to be honest
This Rangers team is more balanced than ours
The midfield is certainly better than ours, to begin with. Aribo will walk directly into our starting 11.
Why isn’t there a premier league club in the final, given that the semis were over two legs.
Mr Serge “Rangers would be bottom 5 in the prem” This final hasn’t been the greatest to watch has it. Indicates two average sides if we are talkimg about the higher echelons of football. But two average sides that have had a very good cup run this season.

Premier league clubs waste so much money on stupid transfers The rest of Europe uses them as lotteries Lat season, a well managed club doesn’t spend 16 million on Lokonga because we has a young midfielder of the same age who played 30+ games for Arsenal as a 19 year old in 2018-2019.

Yea, I have no problems using the word shite fort us
Four points ahead of your local rivals with three games to go
… and we bottled it.
A season where you’re going to be calling some type of success, yet we will play the same European competition that United will play after their shitty season. Ths pathetic season that they’ll want to forget.

**Frankfort deserve that trophy just for the stunt they pulled off at the Nou camp
Rangers would be lucky to get top half in the PL.
Hard luck to Ramsey with the penalty but I hated the way he approached it. I think you have to have the technique of a truly top class player to attempt a penalty like that. 9/10 players should just put their laces through it and go for bottom corner.
Considering our glaring lack of focus when it comes to anything “shooting” related and our recent history when it comes to taking penalties, what would possess a manager to bring an ex-Arsenal player onto the pitch simply to take a crucial penalty kick…be careful Rangers fans, you might have another “Arteta” on your hands…good luck with that
Diss
I already said before if Rangers were in the EPL for an extended period then it would seem inevitable that they can get stronger with time in it because of the prestige and size of that club along with that extra money they would get.
Where we disagree is in you over-rating this current Rangers side because they reached a Europa League final.
I don’t know why everyone keeps expecting a squad overall every summer.
For the last 5 windows I have seen peoples out list as:
Leno
Bellerin
Xhaka
El neny
Laca
Pepe
Cedric
Chambers
Guendouzi
Holding
Torreira
And guess what? These players are still contracted to the club.
Reality check: 2 first teamers coming in and 2 squad players are coming in. Nothing more
When will managers learn it’s a horrible plan to bring on a player at the end of extra time just to take a penalty
Ramsey yesterday, Sancho in the euros.
Penalties are not just about taking it, it’s about being warm and ready and switched on – something which a player simply is not after being on the sidelines all game and barely even touching the ball after coming on.
An average penalty taker who has played at least 20 mins is worth far more than a decent penalty taker who has kicked a ball 3 times all day.
I suppose with our luck we might just get Man Utd / Napoli / Juve / Atletico in Europa league knockout stages.
Two thirds of the stadium last night was made up of Rangers supporters. They were surprisingly quiet though. Nerves and heat exhaustion maybe?
Frankfurt fans were absolutely amazing!
Gonsterous Reality check: 2 first teamers coming in and 2 squad players are coming in. Nothing more The numbers game has been occupied my thoughts for a while now. With EL football the squad would need at least 4 more and that’s even before you factor in any departures.

Having 5 subs will also require a whole new level of in game management to get the most benefit and as you say a strong squad. Players could be used just to go flat out for 45 mins like in RU. Or a team could be switched from say a deep back 5 to back 4 as the game progressed.

Arsenal’s game against Everton can be affected by the outcome of Everton’s game against CP tonight.

That would change the dynamics of the game entirely.
Everton win tonight and they’re safe.
Based on Arsenal’s last two games, could they beat Everton anyway?

Ok he got the Chambers one wrong but other than that at this point in time I think all the others are still contracted to Arsenal
Under Arteta we’ve failed to score in 25 per cent of our games
Can we now finally kill this myth that he’s a manager who plays exciting and attacking football?
This was seen on twitter. That isn’t a good stat.
Almunia had his own way of covering the NewCastle Aftermath, if anyone’s interested.
https://londonisred.com/newcastle-the-aftermath/
I think it will take another two years for Arteta to become a competent EPL manager .that has always been my issue with him. Let’s be honest the man does not have a clue as to why his team performed the way the did at Newcastle with so much on the line and we as fans have seen this what 5 times this season along with the discipline issues that remain .clear up those two issues and I could have got the team in the top 4
Graham – sadly I just can’t see Sp**s choking against Norwich.
But say they draw, somehow, and we beat Everton (also “somehow” at the moment!) then it has to be said their GD is worth that extra point and we would still lose out on 4th
Does anyone on here feel that Arsenal’s way of playing is progressive dynamic football?
By the time Arsenal play 3 passes to one another, MC have played 20 and probably scored.
Liverpool would have moved the ball forward at pace in that same amount of time and also threatened.
Come on Arsenal fans, if that’s the process you genuinely want at our club then I’m afraid you need your heads seeing to.
I thought Villa, Leicester and Brighton were supposed to finish ahead of us this season and that we’d be mired in a relegation battle — at least according to some of the posters now calling our season: a disgrace/as good as it gets under Arteta/shite/bottle-job etc.
We were never as bad as some are suggesting and I guess, not quite as good as some thought (me included).
As Chris said, we’re now in the Europa League and that’s not to be sniffed at. I think we’ll be better next season…
MattB I think its great we avoided a relegation battle and are in the Ropey league. We should be celebrating. So much for the Club’s ambition.

I do get the feeling that this is as good as it will get for this club under Arteta. This season we had the luxury or shame depending of how you view things of not being in Europe. We were out of the cup competitions by January so only had the league to focus on.

Terra “The counter will always be that there were other games that could have ended up differently such as Brighton away and WHU at home” I understand the Brighton game away as we were incredibly fortunate to come away with a point. West Ham at home was a very comfortable victory for us though. I do agree that there aren’t guarantees of improvement. We will have a stretched squad, competing on additional fronts and that always brings the risk of fatigue, injury etc. We do need to dip into the transfer market and to keep some of the players we… Read more »
