It's been almost thirteen years since Arsenal's most recent title, and after their 3-1 defeat against Chelsea, their hopes to end their drought have taken a massive blow.
The Gunners showed their lack of spirit when things got tough, their most talented players were outclassed by Chelsea's air-tight defense, and their consolation goal came as time was about to expire. While some blame the players, most fans and experts have turned their backs on Arsene Wenger, who seems to have outstayed his welcome as team manager.
But fans from other teams, such as Chelsea, enjoy Arsenal's current woes and demanded the coach to keep his stint with the Gunners going.
'We want you to stay, we want you to stay. Arsene Wenger, we want you to stay.'

Telling chant from the Chelsea support. #CHEARS
But if you're a die hard Arsenal supporter, then you should know that your team has become a specialist in failure. Why's that? Because stats show that the Gunners seem to forget how to play football when they run into a top caliber team.
0 - Arsenal haven't won any of their last 10 Premier League away games vs the other teams currently in the top six (W0 D5 L5). Intimidation.

To make matters worse, Arsenal's recent record against the Blues is nothing to be proud of.

If that wasn't enough, Arsenal fans had to endure being trolled after their disappointing performance today. Have a look at some tweets that pretty much summed up the team's failure to impress.

76 - Percentage of Arsenal fans hoping today's result will help them finish 4th this season. Tradition.

How do managers like Antonio Conte keep a straight face when they call Arsenal a 'great team‘? I’m impressed every time.

No need to troll Arsenal. Their self-esteem is already trolling them.
