Huh? In the 45mins he played? Woj, Gervinho, Song, Vermaelen, Walcott all offered more than he did.

He showed nothing creative and I've seen nothing from him to show hes improved on whats been pretty bad form for the past 2 years.

Fairly sure he got MOTM? Could easily be wrong though.;-)

Great ball from Rosicky to Robin - countered by a great save again from De Gea.

Our 20-22 year olds are our first teamers - Ramsey, Wilshere, Woj, Walcott and the like. That's the difference.

As per the above, two of United's goals were unstoppable. Throw in Robin's penalty and its 2-1.

Van Persie should have taken a touch there. Beautiful ball from Rosicky. Arsenal should have scored there.

Nice one-two from Cleverly but should have done better on the shot. Good one-on-one save from Szczesy.

Speechless..

I knew we'd get pumped, but 6-1 and it could even get worse is just beyond embarrassing..

I never want to feel this again..

How about those away fans though? F*cking incredible. The only guys wearing the colours that can hold their heads high.

8-2.....

That was uncalled for from Young. No need for it.
I disagree. Being against 'running up the score' is a stupid yank belief. Even though my team is on the receiving end I'd be insulted if they noticeably took the foot off our neck. When you play shit you deserve whatever scoreline you get.

Can't believe I stayed up till 3am for that.

But I'm an optimist, and the only thing I can think of is what better way to force Wenger to spend tens of millions of pounds on someone other than teenagers.

Cahill, Kaka, Sneijder, Hazard and more.

The most frustating thing is we're not pennyless. We have plenty of money. We've known all summer about who was leaving. And we still haven't made the buys we've needed.

Young for example cost $20 million...we spent 12 on Chamberlain. Only a stubborn fool like Wenger would do something like that.

If this isn't the catalyst to spend between 50 and 100 million pounds to bring in genuine stars, then nothing will and Wenger needs to be sacked. Our board has to get him in and tell him in no uncertain terms to spend the money that is there on players older than 19 or be sacked.

I've got nothing..

I'm going to try and focus on Manly's performance on Friday night and not even blink Arsenal until after the transfer deadline.

I don't even know what to say, just a pathetic and embarrassing performance, no excuses. Credit to our fans at the ground, even down by 4-5 they were making noise, enough is enough and we need to spend ASAP.

I was expecting a loss but am lost for words at that.

What happened (took my eyes off the game for minute)?

I was very impressed by the Arsenal fans. The way they stood up and applauded their team at the end was good form.

You have the money, but from what I can tell, it's the wages that are an issue. It's hard to acquire top talent if you aren't willing to pay premium wages, which Arsenal have shown that they're not.
