Will laugh all day if Saint-Maximin keeps ignoring his positional responsibilities.

That was a perfect second half showing. Someone ask that Telegraph journalist how he intends to defend Bruce in his next tweet.

This mouth breather is a tactical dinosaur. His changes in the second half significantly weakened us and played a huge part in the Arsenal winner. He made three subs that included both positional swaps and formation changes. Consequently the players looked more and more lost as the game went on. So once Arsenal scored, the game was over save for a moment of luck - which never materialised. And the players he subbed on did not look like they had a fluid understanding within the team. Saint-Maximin had no fixed position and wandered everywhere, which lead to us being even more disjointed in attack. He all too often dropped deep and that meant we didn't have players stretching the Arsenal back line to allow us the space to move forward. It genuinely didn't look like he had been given a specific instruction on where and how to play. To be honest, it didn't look like we had any clear strategy to get at Arsenal all game, but by the end we looked like a Sunday league team with players just doing what they wanted. The complete opposite to how Rafa had us set up. I have no idea what Bruce thought would happen bringing Willems on into midfield. None of the midfield three knew when to stay or move. And then I think he pushed Willems out left and Ritchie came into the midfield three? The guy didn't look match sharp and didn't look like he knew what to do in the system. There is a running theme here with players looking lost. And talking of the midfield. How many times did everyone press at the same time to leave huge gaps in the midfield? There was one clear as day moment where the midfield three sprinted to the right wing to press and Arsenal casually passed it out. I just laughed. Last year, we always looked to have control over space on the pitch, but today we looked ragged. Later on, Almiron ended up in midfield and looked totally ineffectual in both attack and defence Compare that to how much he offered both going forwards and without the ball when Rafa had him playing wide left. What an absolute disgrace this club is.

Love how shit we are.

Hilarious lack of discipline. Good stuff.

What's the utter cretin saying now? Dunno, I have my stream muted. I just saw his face.

Ameobi can fuck off.

Does it though? Read the thread.

Sissoko has had the ball in the final 3rd on 5 occasions and his end product was woeful each time.

Weird obsession.

A proud 4-1 loss for Norwich. #heroes

Origi is so poor in possession. Really selfish and takes a second too long on passes.

Me too

Norwich fan on another forum I used is glad they're giving it a go. Rather go down swinging. Someone else also suggested that changing their approach to a more defensive tactic would "get them relegated faster" and they should "stick to what got them promoted." Magical

Made even sweeter by his arse kissing in the media.

He'll barely feature. Utter crock.

Difficult to know what is going on with them these days. The media spare very little coverage to the lower leagues.

I read that Luiz has forced the move away from Frank Lampard's Chelsea.

12 player formation posts are both cult and weirdly regular.

ALLEZ™ ALLEZ™ ALLEZ™ !

We all know that come early January, half the first team will sit out our FA Cup 3rd round exit. And not a single journalist will question Bruce about it.

We support Newcastle United not mike ashley. I won't stop supporting my club just because ashley is a c**t. Would the definition of support not include a desire to see your team do better? Are you happy with the merchandising vehicle the club has become? Or do you just want to turn a blind eye to Mike Ashley, Steve Bruce, Jack Colback and all the other abject people now entrenched at the club? Because another 38 games battling relegation is definitely something I couldn't look forward to as a supporter.

Rafa knew how to manage the condition of the squad across an entire season. I would wager that Bruce has got them "fitter" relative to this point in time last season, but I would certainly expect considerably more fatigue and injury early in the new year as a result of excessive conditioning in preseason. Also Colback is a shit footballer. I hope he reads the forum x

Print that and post it to everyone who attends Arsenal.
