First, we lost to Spurs at White Hart Lane. We thought our season is over. But on Saturday, our arch rival Spurs managed to beat Chelsea too, and all of a sudden the race seemed to be opened again. That is, if we beat Wigan, we would be only 3 points behind leader Chelsea. And Chelsea still have to meet Liverpool at Anfield.
But we still managed to screw it up. When was the last time we threw away a 2 goals lead and got beaten by the opponent by 3 late goals? Absolutely disgusting spineless performance from the players! They played like it was a friendly match. This bunch of players don’t deserve to win anything.
So, our season is over. I wouldn’t be surprise if we got thrashed 6-0 by Man City at Emirates Stadium. These players needed a major wake-up call, since they are already used to getting thrashed by Man United and Chelsea. They needed to feel humiliated, to understand that they have not achieved anything yet.
Next season, clowns like Almunia, Fabianski and Silvestre must go. Alright, if Almunia don’t mind being a 2nd choice keeper to a truly world class keeper, he can stay. That’s where he truly belongs. But Fabianski, I really see no future in this clown. Wenger needs to strengthen the squad and not to worry about bringing in players that would “kill” the young ones. If you are good enough, you play. Else, you wait until you get your chance. No more baby-sitting players into the first team. They all have to fight for it. Our players had been in the comfort zone for too long. They had been to used to losing.
