When will the bleeding stop?

If you watched today’s match, you saw an Arsenal team play pretty good football during a 20-25 minute spell late in the first half. This even resulted in an Alexandre Lacazette goal during open play. However, the remain 65-70 minutes was literally hard to watch.

For me, the one bright spot was the return of Gabriel Martinelli to the line-up. His pinpoint cross lead to Laca’s goal, but then he took a hard knock on the ankle and was forced to come off the pitch in the early stages of the second half. Mikel Arteta told the press following the game the injury looks to be just some swelling around the spot where Martinelli took the kick. Good news!

So, where do we go from here? Chelsea is next at the Emirates on Saturday, and I’m sure Frank Lampard and his squad are licking their lips in anticipation of this crosstown derby v Arsenal.

Even though Tuesday’s match was in the Carabao Cup and not in the Premier League, the Gunners once again demonstrated this club is sinking lower and lower every game.

Let’s look at Arsenal’s last ten games in all competitions…
3 wins, 2 draws and 5 defeats (15 goals)

Let’s look at Arsenal’s last six games in the Premier League…
0 wins, 2 draws and 4 defeats (3 goals)

When will the bleeding stop?

How much is to blame on Arteta?
How much is to blame on the players?
How much is to blame on Edu’s recruiting?

I wish I had the answers, but what I do know is the current combinations are not working.
Is there some internal B.S. tearing this squad apart in the dressing room?
Has Arteta lost the respect of his players?

Where has it all gone wrong?
If you look back at the schedule, the Gunners were 10-0-3 going into the match at Aston Villa on October 8th. That 0-3 defeat seemed to be the beginning of this downward slide. Yes, it was a tough pill to swallow, but it shouldn’t have marked such a major turning point in the young season. But, it did.

When will the bleeding stop?
Well, a result v Chelsea on Saturday would be a nice start, but unfortunately, I’m not encouraged.
