You can lose. But 4-0 can deeply affect Arsenal confidence for the rest of the season. When you have to deliver, you fail, and dramatically
Beating City didn't mean AFC had won the league. Losing to SFC doesn't mean they have lost it. #perspective
Mammas, don't let your babies grow up to be Arsenal fans

From beating Manchester City to being spanked by a team with 1 point from their last 15. Arsenal, Ladies and Gentleman.
Héctor Bellerín is the only Arsenal defender to have won a tackle (1) today. Says it all. #Arsenal
You can't be laughing at Arsenal while u are 15th on the log and your team has set a trend of winning once in a month like a menstrual cycle
The best way to hide something from an Arsenal fan is to put it at the top of the table. #Stolen

Arsenal are top of the table.
Arsenal fans were having a good time then...
No wonder so many Arsenal fans driven to distraction & find it impossible to trust their team. So impressive against Man. City now this.

"To do an Arsenal" Definition: to crumble when the pressure is on; a failure to seize your big chance #SOUARS
Arsenal haven't beaten Southampton away from home in the Premier League since December 2003. Bogey ground.
