Matchday Thread - Arsenal vs Swansea City - 02 March 2016

Arsene Wenger: “Let’s be positive. I believe that this team has shown a lot of great mental strength through the whole season. We have as well not to go overboard and panic. Let’s focus on what we want to do."

Well, Let’s be positive!

See the problem with that is that it's assuming that just staying positive will somehow win us the title, but it's a mathematical fallacy. Positivity has no impact on the fact that it's no longer in our own hands. We are now completely dependent on both Leicester and Spurs bottling it, and neither of those teams will succeed or fail based on whether Arsenal and its supporters are negative or positive.

We have lost the title, our attitude is now irrelevant. It is pointless being either positive or negative, it has no bearing on our title bid anymore. Wenger should spend the rest of the season contemplating whether him staying at Arsenal is mostly good for the club, or mostly good for himself. This summer needs some serious investment. We can't carry on sitting on an imaginary high horse about spending money. The rest of the world doesn't care, so we are being left behind.

Two wins in a row and we're somehow back in the picture. Problem is I can't see us beating Spurs.

That's assuming Leicester and Spurs wobble. I mean yeah, if we win all our remaining games of course we'll have a shot. But my point is that our positivity will have no impact on Leicester or Spurs. It can affect Arsenal, but it's out of Arsenal's hands now so it's irrelevant.

If Wenger truly cared about the future of this club he will resign at the end of the season.

This is so frustrating to watch. In the final third we almost always pick the worst option. Crossing instead of shooting. Shooting instead of laying-off.

I hope they lose every game. Would serve them right for their extreme cheapskate behavior. Arsenal and especially wenger hate the fans. Just look at that French pig's comments regarding the Leicester fans walkout.

What did he say about Leicester fans?

Well, it looks like my decision not to watch any more Arsenal is already improving my life.

I'd probably be punching walls now, had I watched this fucking bunch of clowns against Swansea.

On the plus side, Leicester might still win this.

IF we can win (or draw) against Spurs, we'll (kinda) offer them the Title on a silver platter...
