Can't even do the basics correctly

First off new managers have got to be given time and Arteta has got to turn round a long period of mediocrity. But he's really not helping himself with some really strange decisions. Really what has Martinelli done or not done that means he has been completely sidelined. There is obviously a lack of quality is certain areas but there is no excuse for not doing the basics like leaving a two on one at a corner.

To be honest my thought at the moment is the job is too big for Arteta I hope I'm wrong though.

Just don't have the players.

It's the worst assembled arsenal squad in my time

It seems to be this long standing attitude problem. They don't seem too concerned with winning, not too fussed about losing. No real fight,or even anger. They are like a nice bunch of posh kids having a kick about. The way they switched off after going one up instead of pressing twice as hard for the second was infuriating. Ther crowd noises,lame comentary,bad refereeing and low quaility made me wish I'd not bothered at all!

Everything is wrong at the club, the players aren’t gd enough, the recruitment is poor. This the worst arsenal squad since 95 but at least then we signed Dennis and had wrighty. So many problems it’s unreal. Such a mentally weak squad.

The fact that a Guendouzi is a regular starting in MF sums up where this club is

With FFP being suspended there really is no excuse the owners have got to go and get the players to fix it. If they don't then its only going to get worse. There are some positives the likes of Saka and Martinelli if he ever gets a game are genuinely exciting talents. Having said that with the people in charge of this club will probably let Saka leave for nothing.

Laugh all you want, but do you know what? These are real people, and while I don't agree with them watching the game, this is the way they choose to escape from the harsh realities of relatives, friends and fellow fans all dying recently.

And yes, our team are complete dog**** right now, but at least the negatives of supporting Arsenal distract from the hardship realities of life right now.

How are you choosing to distract yourself from the 42,000 deaths, with more dying, some of them fellow fans, some of them risking their lives in the transport and CS industries just so that you can carry on living? By laughing at another football team.

Shameful doesn't even begin to describe this.

So arsenal fans can watch tv to distract themselves from the corona virus.

But other people can’t?

What’s the difference between watching arsenal collapse and an episode of you’ve been framed?

People get undone by their own actions and others laugh at them.

Basics?

How about basic marking?

Something as simple as getting "touch tight" when defending your goal.

Brighton waltzed right through our defensive formation for both goals today, without any of our players as much as laying a glove on them.

The morale at this club seems to be extremely poor. I wonder if these players even like each other, do they even care for the fans, perhaps with having so many foreign players on the squad there is not even a realization of the honor is it is to play for such a historic Football Club; or are they simply focused on leaving? Also, does the top management of Arsenal have the credentials to bring this club back to its former greatness?

This mess did not happen overnight. It would be better to get rid of the under-performers and those who want to leave, even if it means finishing in the bottom half of the PL for 2-3 seasons as the club is "re-built" with a younger and motivated squad who want Arsenal to
succeed.
