I am always confused by some of the criticism that even our own fans throw at the team, it seems like sometimes there's a genuine attempt to overstate our weaknesses while hyping our rivals strengths.
I Often hear that we're clueless in defence, have no organisation and structure, we have no tactics and that our attack is deficient. This means that we're either the luckiest Club in the World or our weaknesses are overblown.
When you look at where we usually finish in the table with our non existent system, defensive frailties, no tactics and poor offence, it's nothing short of miraculous.

Good post positive. Other than Chelsea who had an exceptional run, we are one win away from second placed Lverpool and we are in the last 16 of the Champions League. We have done this despite a heavy schedule and a lengthy injury list, including long term injuries to Cazorla and Welbeck. We need to get behind Wenger and the team and do our part in providing the support and encouragement fans should provide.

When Coutinho got injured Klopp immediately came out and said he wouldn't accept this as a reason for for a Liverpool to slump, Klopp demands from the fans the players and himself where at Arsenal our manager makes excuses for the players and the fans make excuses for the team and the manager.
Klopp took over a very average Liverpool a little over a year ago and has already got them up to our level and the reason for this is mentality, he has raised the expectancy level of everyone at Liverpool the players to fans alike not just from each other but from themselves too.
Danny was always a long term absentee way before a ball was kicked and a 31 year old Caz shouldn't be any excuse for us to drop out of the title race in the first week of January, that's just not acceptable from a club the size of Arsenal and a manager who has had years to build his squad.
The all new singing and dancing Liverpool no excuses approach V the same old tried and failed Arsenal no excuse to feeble approach, spot the difference in one year?
Oh I know it's naughty champions league excuse now brought in to replace the now defunct naughty stadium excuse, come on lads it's time to face facts we are a top 4 chasing happy club and that won't change until everyone at the club from manager to players to fans stop making excuses for them selfs and each other.
In order for things to change we need to change a big shift in mentality is needed from EVERYONE at Arsenal Football Club.

G62, I agree with totaly and that includes the fan too I guess. Our expectations are too high and very understandable for a club like ours but us fans we opt to criticise not support our team in the tough situations. I have been to the emirate hundreds of times while I lived in london and it saddens me when I see our stadium quite. We don't have a proper firm where they sing their lungs out through the whole game, do you know how much that can do to the team. I know its a little off topic but I think we have a huge influence on the team too. For example ozil been have a great season one bad game and we slate the hell out of him, how that will help our player to gain thier confidence again.

You bragging you beat Chelsea 3-0 to our 2-0 shows how deluded you really are, we beat man city you didn't who cares. The fact is the pain at the lane is awful only lost 2 games in the league to your 4, the best defense in the league in alderwerld and co and your are out of the top 4.

Cmp that's how you win titles, by sorting those things out. You just don't or can't get it, that why you often hear and see it and that's why we won't win it this year again. The best win the league the rest dont.
