Things could get really bad for any team, but there has to be a stronger word to describe Arsenal’s disrespectful and abject performance in their match against Fleetwood Town last night.
No matter how favourably one tries to view it, Arsenal were embarrassing, and the display was so poor that Max Dowman struggled, lost his temper and was sent off.
The game seemed as though the Gunners were playing against a top side such as Manchester City, not because Arsenal faced a particularly strong opponent, but because they simply appeared uninterested in winning.
