Big time bottlers

Yet again come the big game and the Arsenal go missing. On a night of humiliation and pain at the Emirates Arsene Wenger's men showed nothing to suggest a four year trophy drought is going to coming to an end any time soon.

Forget Gibbs' slip, he did the same at Old Trafford. Forget Almunia's poor positioning for the free kick, Arsenal offered nothing. Zilch. And that has got to have Wenger questioning his policies. They just rolled over and died.

But we expect this to be fair. Wenger is putting together a team of losers. Just check out this list.

2009 - Champions League semi final v Manchester United
2009 - FA Cup semi final v Chelsea
2008 - Carling Cup semi final v Totts
2008 - Champions League quarter final v Liverpool
2007 - Carling Cup final v Chelsea
2006 - Champions League final v Barcelona

Some clubs of course would love to have that record. But we're Arsenal. And Wenger keeps saying he's a winner. But he's not. Not now.

Instead of having players like Walcott coming out and saying people are scared of Arsenal 'cos we beat the likes of Portsmouth and Middlesbrough, instead of Wenger saying they would beat United in the second leg they should just shut the rubber duck up and win a bloody trophy. Win something, then boast.
