1 Nil Up, 2-1 Down
Back in the day one of our favourite anthems was 1-0 up, 2-1 down...especially in 86/87 against Liverpool and the Totts.
Under Wenger the words have become reversed. Just look at these high profile reversals...
2001 FA Cup Final v Liverpool
2006 Champions League Final v Barcelona
2007 Carling Cup Final v Chelsea
2011 Carling Cup Final v Birmingham City
There are plenty of other examles of course...way too many. Wenger likes to boast the team has 11 leaders and 11 captains but that's bollocks. They don't. They lack any leaders and any meaningful captain and have done for several years.
You cannot win things without quality defenders and keepers. Wenger has only built one decent defence, with Campbell and Toure, but he has struggled to sign good defenders for way too long. It's like he doesn't care...what else explains the inactivity and the consistent shopping at mini marts when charging Harrod's prices?
