Twitter Reacts as Arsenal Crash Out of FA Cup to Watford at the Emirates

These are dark, dire times for Arsenal. 

With their Premier League title chase fading and the fact that they have to overcome a two-goal deficit at the Camp Nou against world-beaters Barcelona to keep their UEFA Champions League hopes alive, Arsenal's best chance to lift silverware, the FA Cup, disappeared on Sunday.

The Gunners fell 2-1 to Watford, a team that played in the Championship last season, at the Emirates Stadium with a trip to Wembley Stadium on the line.

In the aftermath, Arsenal fans went into full meltdown mode.

And the internet loved every second of the typically frail Gunners "doing an Arsenal." Except, of course, Arsenal fans.

As it stands

Leicester - Whole greater than the sum of its parts

Arsenal - Whole lesser than the sum of its parts

Blame enough for all

Wenger talking about this team's "great spirit", "strong attitude."
Days like this -- months like this -- don't exactly endorse that claim.

You cannot expect a goal like Guedioura. Or Ighalo's turn. And it was little bit sunny, so the fans were maybe jaded. Look, I don't know.

If this was just players having an ‘off day’ that’d be one thing. But this season the ‘on days’ are the exception rather than the norm.
