You handlers of @Arsenal, do you see what you are doing to your sponsors? Rwandan government didn't pay your club so much just to get this kind of mediocre performance. You MUST pull up your sock! https://t.co/XnIaIy2Q2Z

1. Time is running out for Arteta.

2. Its not that Arsenal lost, but the way they lost. No fight, no spirit. Nothing
3. 50m Ben White was abject. Pepe, Leno and Xhaka were 3 out of 10.
4. Brentford were magnificent. They pressed and ran so hard.
5. EPL is ????????????#PremierLeague
Defeat at Brentford. #BREARS

Arsenal is a club that should be disbanded. Everyone should simply return home. #ArtetaOut

As much as I'd like to scream Artata's name, I can't. Arsenal's leadership is partly to fault! We simply do not have any high-quality players on our roster!! My heart can't take any more losses this season, and I beg God to help me quit rooting for Arsenal! #ArtetaOut #arsbre
