Hard To See Things Improving for Wenger at Arsenal

We all know Arsenal are going through their worst spell for years, but the only way to take advantage is by playing well.

That was Arsene Wenger's first major error on the night.

"I have managed over 1100 games for Arsenal Football Club and we are not used to losing like that. When you are a big club you want to win every game, so that is normal".

With many supporters again demanding Wenger resign, the toxic atmosphere around the north Londoners boiled over as fans refused to give the ball back to Gunners right-back Hector Bellerin when it went into the away section in the second half.

THEO WALCOTT has apologised to the Arsenal fans following the team's humiliating 3-0 loss at Crystal Palace, and admitted that Palace "wanted it more".

Majority shareholder, USA businessman Stan Kroenke, a Wenger supporter, will ultimately have the final say. Arsenal created a few chances as Alexis Sanchez looked capable of scoring whenever they went close to Palace's goal mouth, but were denied by Palace's impeccable defense.

Much will likely depend on whether or not Barca offer him the job at the Nou Camp, but despite Arsenal's troubles, the Premier League giants remain an intriguing project and challenge for any manager.

Crystal Palace had left Arsenal struggling to maintain their run of top-four finishes under Wenger. It's really odd. We were unbeaten for a long time away from home, and now we can not win.

"I had some incredible times with Arsene Wenger. You could tell. You could sense that from kickoff".

The sixth-placed Gunners needed three points to keep them in the hunt for Champions League qualification, but the defeat leaves them seven points off the pace.

Arsenal next face Middlesbrough at the Riverside on Monday, live on Sky Sports 1 HD, and while Vyas accepted the result there is important, he has stressed that the club's FA Cup semi-final with Manchester City is now make-or-break.

"He looks to have worked his magic again", Townsend said.
