Yes, Arsenal did just sell a couple of guys. And teams like the Sounders played reserve-league players out of position when Man U ran the score up on them with the like of Rooney on the pitch. Sorry, but it’s an entirely appropriate comparison.
Wenger has lost the plot and his team. He should fall on his sword. Not a Man U fan, but like that as an English team they actually have a core of English players, unlike Arsenal.
Can I resign as an Arsenal fan now? It looks like ownership and Wenger are more concerned with putting together some non-British U-23 side and winning with it than competing.
I like Tottenham, and Alkmaar is pretty fun to watch too. RIP Gunners.
Arsenal is severely talent depleted at this juncture. You don’t lose Fabregas and Nasri within two weeks of each other and not suffer, no matter how deep you may be. Since those major transfers, I’m surprised Arsenal has not been aggressively seeking replacements. There’s now only 3 days left in the transfer window. Even with all those players Dave above mentions back and healthy, if Arsenal doesn’t pick up two top strikers or midfielders, it will be a long season.
Man Ashley young has sure become a solid player…. I remember playing with watford in fifa when they were in the epl and young was the only reason my teams would stay up just barely but he would score 20 a year for me in a 4-3-3
Arsenal just sold its two best players and has yet to bring in replacements along with injuries/suspensions to wilshire, song, diaby, gervinho, vermalean, gibbs, sagna, and frimpong. To compare this to the pre-season form red devils team that destroyed the mls is ridiculous.
Losing to Liverpool at home for the first time in a decade was a beat down. That was much much worse than a beat down. That was like the US invasion of Grenada.
One of the few times I can say I’m embarrassed to be a gunners fan…Can’t see Wenger staying much longer unless he can bring in some real players instead of playing reserves.
The only positive was hearing Arsenal fans singing they love their team in Old Trafford.
What’s the big deal? I love both Manchester United and Manchester City now that they are both in the running for the title. Is that so wrong?
the East coast wasnt the only thing Irene knocked out..looks like Arsenal was right smack in the middle.
+1
Please feel free to leave as an Arsenal fan if you’ve been cheering for tottenfail….
If you like Tottenham I dont think you were much of a Gunners fan to start with.
Irene knocked out my power before the game. I was bummed that i couldn’t see the game…Now i’ve never been this happy about a natural disaster before.
Those Manchester derbies are looking quite scintillating this year…
Back when Manchester United were playing MLS teams, didn’t they have a non-cuncussed Chicharito and others? Maybe Vidic?
For those who did not watch the game: it was not as close as the scoreline suggests.
Thank you for making me laugh before I went to bed. Hahaha.
Made me wanna SLAP MA MOMMA!!

It was a historical boom boom wooping too, first time arsenal conceded 8 goals since the 1800’s….dammmmm

LOL best comparison ever haha
Chicharito is still out of shape, I’d give him 2 more weeks if I was SAF
dammm Wenger!! Get the rape whistle!!!

:/ why didn’t they show any of Arsenal’s goals?
Losing to Liverpool at home for the first time in a decade was a beat down. That was much much worse than a beat down. That was like the US invasion of Grenada.
DanO’s got it right…especially since Arsenal didn’t play a C-side and this wasn’t a friendly.
No, it does, this just makes Arsenal look like an MLS team.
Man U’s run through MLS doesn’t look so bad anymore, does it?
Rooney is back to his old form. Top Flight of the World, Craig!
You know when you take a beat down? That was a beat down. Good luck on the recovery Gunners.
Right up there with the video of my father’s funeral and the day I dropped an anvil on my foot.
