Basically unless Arteta is as good as been reported they're truly fucked.

When teams like us and Dortmund were that far down it was basically down to fluke circumstances, this Arsenal side are genuinely midtable stuff.

Horrific all over considering its an elite club

Arsenal are a very mediocre side, have been for years.

Indeed. At least we have a board and an owner that care about the club being successful. Arsenal's just don't care at all. They're gonna need a BIG overhaul from top to bottom.

They're clinging onto their youngsters for hope but I don't see it.

Maybe my standards are too high by watching our boys but the only Arsenal one's I think have potential are Saka and Martenelli (and the former appears to be running down his contract). Willock, Guendouzi, Nelsen and Nkietieh don't look like players who could become good enough for a top side.

This youngsters thing is hilarious by the way. Ever since we started doing it this season, other clubs are trying to do the same and hoping to build some feel good factor around them even though their players aren't all that great.

They have a few, we have 100's like that and better. Its fun to watch how many big clubs have again copied us. No one dared to play 343-352 consistently or even being succesful with it before we did it, now they are using youth like us in mass.

Out of the one's being promoted by United and Arsenal i think Greenwood and Martenelli are up there with our boys, Saka next level down but all the rest are planets below.

Tariq Lamptey would be one of the star prospects at Arsenal but with us he had to leave as an even better prospect is ahead of him.

Arsenal's run-in doesn't look easy either...

Yup and that's less than 5 across 2 clubs. 

And saw someone say that the youngsters Arsenal are trying to promote are on par with the ones we tried to promote 10 years ago.

it's a marvel how Leicester with such an average team are sitting comfortably 3rd in the league. We have a far superior squad and yet they have been so much more consistent.

Schmeichel, Chilwell, Soyuncu, Pereira, Vardy would make starting 11 for us easily. Ndidi and Maddison would be in discussion too. So, we do not have far superior squad. At least not starting 11.

Arsenil want the season ended.....the entire squad has tested positive for dontgiveashititis.
