Arsenal took to the field on Sunday in a bid to finish in the top-3, making a good finish to the highly unsuccessful season. But apart from the first half, when the Gunners were having a go at the Sunderland defence, the visitors did not look hungry for the win.

As the game progressed, the players seemed worn out and played with a very slow tempo. If you are a side that wants to go out there and play simple football, then you have to have the intensity in your game but the Gunners lack it.

They have been lacking it ever since February and March, where they were knocked out of the FA Cup and the Champions League. Their manager has said after every game that they want to finish the season on a high and give their best in every game. But the players on the field are not quite doing it for their manager.

In the same context, if the manager isn’t satisfied with the performances, he should be making changes. However, Wenger has not made many changes to his team recently, and it looks like their fans are not liking what they are seeing.
