second half.. lets see what Boulds done.

Same old Arsenal.

A lack of quality and a lack of leadership are just two of the things that are wrong.

No its Wenger. Time to go me thinks. Peps looking to be available at the end of the season. Please just leave Wenger.

Brilliant Ajax performance. That is how football should be played.

I missed all of the goals yesterday apart from Barca vs Celtic. I thought they would show them all in CL goals at 10 as they couldnt at 6 because of the early kick off

You say it's time for Wenger to leave every time we hit a bad patch.

People need to calm down. These two games have been poor but a lot has been encouraging this season, good performances against City and Liverpool. We've already been to stoke, Chelsea wasn't great but they are on a roll.

This kind of reaction is slowly turning me off football. Everything is always so dramatic. Sometimes you lose in sport. Every year the same articles, the same notions, the same complaints. Yet Arsenal finish apart on par with what their financial position should merit. Sometimes above. Wenger was getting lots of credit for the turn around last season and for reinventing the team at the start of this season. Now he is the senile old fool again.

Santis been stopped playing and Gervinho falls over.its the same old Damien. why try play a barca or spainish style when you havent a sqaud with all round qaulity. its either truly not there or its not being touched. our squad depth sucks yet theres proven qaulity. whos at fault for the circles? me for complaining?

We had the quality just a few games back. We were pinging the ball back and forth. Something has been lost in the last few games. I think it's a lack of pace on the flanks with Walcott and Chamberlain both being out, today we were certainly harmed but the uncertainty in midfield and the exploitation of our weakness on the right. Gervinho had a poor game but he had a good one last time.

The team is at fault. I just don't think it merits the overkill complaining at the moment. We've lost a game. Let's suck it up and worry about QPR. Sagna and Wilshere will return soon, hopefully Walcott/Chamberlain too.

fair enough but the squad depth should be able to handle it. i know it takes time to gel even more so after being laid off still everyone should be wanting to play. formation and setup of players sucked.

not a pretty AGM. Peter Hill-Wood your days as chairman are over. I'm all for a leader, figure head not taking crap but Hill-Wood takes the biscuit, tea and biscuits HA! anyway Wengers controlling spend, not surprised, 60% home grown. all this surrounding talent with upcomers. shame the upcomers suck or are not peaking as they should be. Ivan and Stan are starting to annoy the hell out of me. same ol'd, Ivan for all his knowledge winds me up just by speaking. Stan couldn't speak even if he tried. Dodging questions, lying I hate it when people start comparing other clubs to us, we're Arsenal not other clubs!!! I agree with Wenger when he says third is more important because well it is as a last resort but come on we could be doing better. the board needs changing. more pressure needs to be put on Wenger to perform better.

We did learn that, despite rumours, Wenger isn't in charge of the finances and it does seem Stan is looking to take money out of the club.

PHW: We’re all getting older. I think we’re guiding the club in the right direction. I’m not sure we’re looking at increasing the number of directors. Thank you. Ivan is prepared to stay and answer your questions. Thank you for your support and your interest in our affairs.
