    What are we doing? We haven't rested players, we haven't gone for the win, no idea what we are doing
    Yes we have rested Valencia, Bailly, Blind, Pogba, Fellaini (suspended anyway), Lingard and Rashford all rested.
    Tuanzabe has had a good display.
    3 injured players coming back.

    Shaken, and very stirred......
    More agression, more desire..

    These players should be wanting to put in a performance to force themselves in to the first team and prove why they should still be here next season.

    Instead they've let a mentally weak Arsenal side have there way with them.
    I think some of them already know they are on their way out.........

    "You and your paper can feck off."
    No the peformance was embarrassing and no idea why fans like you accept it. He hasn't tried to win the game and he hasn't rested key players, he's just feck around and got beat.

    People pay to watch these games and it's OK to just roll up, get shit on and go home and say "well atleast Pogba is rested for Celta De Vigo. "A team that would make Preston North end look like Barca

    15 mins lads for the whole season … please do not tell me resting players will win us the EL !!!
    Two games to win the EL and qualify for the CL. One game we have a massive advantage in, the other is against Ajax, who are good, but no Spurs.

    Top four was always a tough ask with injuries and fixture pileups. It's EL or bust. Field u21 sides for the remainder.

    Calm the feck down. If we wanted to win the game from the start we wouldn't have played with such a formation.

    EPL is gone long ago.
    How will you feel if Arsenal finish 4th after starting their game below us?

    Stop overreacting.

    No player played today will play against Celta except Darmian, Herrera and Mikhi.

    Why not? As long as top 4 is obtainable we have two ways into CL. Is Jose supposed to write off the remaining games? Everyone acting like EL is already won. We're capable of losing against Viga on Thursday. Even if we advance, Ajax is a strong side who will. E up for it as much as us.

    We could lose to Spurs, draw against Palace and end the season in 6th with feck all.
    Top 4 doesn't matter. Only the EL does. It's a trophy that puts us into the group stages and it's two games, one of which we have an advantage in.

    Top 4 is 4 games including away to Arsenal and Spurs. Why waste your limited energy on a spot on the table where you have to rely on others to help? Pointless.

    One can only hope that this proves to be the catalyst for Wenger announcing a new 8 year contract.

    Fair play to Arsenal though, they've worked hard today and they'll reap the rewards with some outstanding post match selfies.

    What the feck are you all moaning about? We'd managed the game pretty well up until the first goal, we were just lacking a counter threat because none of our attackers chose to show up.

    They get a lucky goal then a second because Smalling is a shit defender and you all lose your shit? Unbefeckinglievable.

    The Emirates isn't a place we have a right to win, especially with 5 of our first 11 missing through injury or because they're being rested.

    This is what i hate. We have a chance why should we give up on one to focus on the other when we have the chance to play for both? That is just defeatism and negative, right down to the football that was played. We had a chance for 4 and we blew it. SAF would have rallied on despite the odds down to the last minute. What happened to the never say die attitude?

    Embarrassing.
    There's the magic word that people on here love.

    First half we were good and didn't let many chances in. 2nd half all turned to shit. Being out fought I agree, especially for Herrera in the second.
    Do you think so? I thought the warning signs were there in the first half. They didn't take their best chance because De Gea produced a world class save, messed up another because the through ball was curving away from the box when Welbeck broke through, and messed up several others by getting the weight of the ball JUST wrong. Jones blocked a certain goal as well.

    I don't think we've been good at all. I thought it was only a matter of time till they put their chances away. But we can agree. We would have liked to see a bit more fight.

    How many of the players we've had out today are good enough for top four clubs? There's no quick fix for this squad I'm afraid. If we don't win the EL, we'll struggle to attract top players too, so we'll have to keep quite a few.

    I dont think the performance was embarassing at all. They scored a flukey goal and it forced us to come out.

    If Rooney had taken the chance earlier in the match it would have been a different story.

    As has been said many many many times this year, we keep missing chances that would win us matches.

    How the feck is Chamberlain getting away with all this dissent? He's been running his mouth at the referees every time the camera reaches him.

    There's just no fight and that's what really irritates me. We are two goals down and just going through the motions to see this out. Quite disgraceful.
    Yeah but Pogba was rested for a game were are 1-0 up in against a team that have lost 16 games and are shit so you know it's ok right?
