I gave up with it to be honest ! I know Arsenal are in what they call a "transition stage" but I wonder if the problems are a bit deeper than that ? It looks like teams have finally realised that you can't give them time on the ball and if you get at them you have a chance. Teams are starting to believe that they can get a result against Arsenal now.

Nope. Completely nuetral - not entirely sure how you can construe that I must be an Arsenal fan from a post where I am criticising how poor they are?

.. by the way, i hope Sam continues to be the manager of Bwfc, and not the next coach for England. This for purely selfish reasons, not because he may/maynot be capable of managing his country.

Crap game, too many inexperienced/young players thrown in at once. No cohesion, poor finishing, a dire goal to lose it with. Even had Stelios missed it two others were queing up. Worse, it was Boltons only real chance of the half! God knows what the score would have been had it been a team prepared to make a match of it! 
I defended them and Wenger a month or so ago. Now, I'm not so sure. Poor choice of transfers, a 'big' forward when we need centre halves badly, no experienced midfield cover to replace Viera and shore up the youngsters when they make inevitable mistakes, and no new quality keeper.
Is he going the way of Graham in his later years, with a "I know best, and can turn any sows ear into Pele" attitude? Well, it's looking decreasingly like he can anymore.
With a 'white Elephant' stadia rebuild sucking money away from the squad, a team going thru transition does have to rely on youth. But youth thats played together on a regular basis and preferably from the youth team, not being cobbled together from all over Europe! Still, were not alone on that score. Even Utds fabled youth team 'production line' is drying up........
All round, grey days indeed.
