Never seen anything like this. Rooney shoulda had the hat-trick though.

I don't blame Traore, or Szczesny, or Koscielny, or any of the players for that matter.

Really gutted for Szczesny.
No chance with any of the goals

Spurs fans outside White Hart Lane chanting "There's only one Arsene Wenger" as United score their sixth. Dark day for north London, this...


LOL

Who do you blame?

Traore/Arshavin could be the worst left side I've ever seen play for Arsenal.

Lol. Arsenal needs some help soon. Also good game from Dzeko. Starts looking like his old Bundesliga-self.

Ashley Young has been sensational today and United take over first in the PL on goal differential!!

That's a tad simplistic, you can't put all this on one person. Arsene is not the only person making decisions on transfers, nor is he the one playing people onside or clattering them from behind, stamping on people on the ground, or slapping people in the face. We had to play what was effectively a Carling Cup side against the reigning Champions, it was fairly obvious we'd get spanked.

Wenger deserves his part of the blame, to be sure, but it doesn't absolve any one else of their parts.

if the problem is beyond wenger why doesn't anyone know? why doesnt he make it public that he's fed up? If the problem is beyond wenger , wenger should be fighting to correct these problems not just sit there shaking his head

^^ lol, jesus that's bad. Certainly an embarassing result, Man U bullied Arsenal off the pitch, and definitely looked like Champions. A few really spectacular finishes in there too.

Well, I can only hope this loss will be the kick in the butt the higher ups at Arsenal need. The only Arsenal player I really feel bad for there was Szczesney who didn't have shot at any of those goals.

At least Tottenham got battered too. Dzeko looked fantastic. Man City with all their pricey signings still playing Gareth F'ing Barry. Guess it's working for them though.

i dont understand how arsene wenger expects to replace players with call ups. Why did we get rid of eboue and denilson if were starting coquelin and jenkinson? it makes no sense

I don't think Arsene was quite expecting our current injury/suspension issue at the start of the season. Eboue and Denilson would not have saved us, in fact I'd rather watch Jenkinson and Coquelin. He definitely needs to strengthen, no question. But I doubt he had any plans of playing Jenkinson outside of the Carling Cup, and by all indications the only reason Coquelin isn't out on loan is our current injury situation.
