Oh Noes

Next target to lift the lads, finish the season with a positive goal difference.

If Everton had nicked a winner yesterday we'd all be bricking it now.

We need a v PNE style comeback now.

Question is who’s going to step up Chris Iwelumo style?

I can only assume the lads and gaffer had a chat and decided to take it out of the ref's hands. The only way we could stop the ref deciding the game is to put together the most abject display I've seen since the Stan 4.

Ah well, 7th is still unbelievable. At least I can put it to bed and forget it ever happened.

This is typical Arsenal ... a bunch of flat track bullies. When it matters no-one shows up but when there is nothing to play for they are the best team in the world.

Would have been nice to end the season with positive goal difference though. Need to make sure we beat Bournemouth now by at least a two goal margin.

Defending has been very poor by our standard today. Poor pressing, poor closing down, poor blocking.

I’d like to turn it off, but I never leave a game early.

Pathetic this. Talk about rolling over like a dead dog for Wenger's last home game. Least we know some squad members aren't good enough to be starting now. We're on our hols already.

World class players
Wenger’s last game
Massive injury list
Exhausted players

Sign it off as a bad day, we were due a heavy one after avoiding our customary West Brom battering.

Chill out folks and get those passports renewed.

Whilst it's a bit of a nothing game for us it's not a great advert for players we are trying to attract.im not sure Dyche teams are going to be great in a knockout tournament either. If our defending and pressing off the ball don't work we have nothing else.

Barnes playing for 90 might have kept score respectable. Not saying we would have won but he does hold ball up well.
