In the space of three weeks our promising season is on the verge of totally imploding. Last night was shameful, but not because of what happened on the pitch. At the end of the day we made nine changes and brought in the babies, and asked them to play against a full house and a full strength City who have already hit four against our so-called first team. They never really stood a chance, and in the end 3-0 flattered us, as it did on Sunday against the Chavs.

What is really sad about last night, is Wenger’s behavior post match. His refusal to shake the opposing manager’s hand is frankly shameful, and again, his post match comments read: "I have nothing to say. I am free to shake hands with whom I want after the game."

He continued on to completely disregard the Carling Cup as a competition saying, "I do not consider that if you win the Carling Cup you will be going on a trophy parade," said Wenger. "It is a competition for our younger players. If I don't play them here where would I play them? We played in the quarter-final of the Champions League last season against top teams. Playing in those matches is ten times harder than playing in the Carling Cup."

He has finally openly admitted what we always knew. He is a very sore loser. No shame in being a bad loser, but you have to be dignified, and Arsene clearly isn’t. The less said about his tactics of late the better. Again he refused to put any real experience on the bench last night, so the youngsters were left to fend for themselves.

So another REAL chance of silverware is gone, and we are left with the FA Cup. Anything but victory on Saturday will not go down well, with fans and media alike, and with Liverpool and Burnley away fast approaching, things may start to get very uncomfortable for Arsene.
