What a difference a few weeks makes.
It wasn’t long ago that Arsenal fans were bragging about a famous victory at home over the mighty Bayern Munich.
Well a 5-1 trouncing on Wednesday night to Pep Guardiola’s men was enough to bring even the most giddy Gooner back down to earth.
An early goal from Robert Lewandowski was an ominous start. Arsenal fans agreed that Gabriel was to blame…

Just a matter of seconds later, it looked as if Ozil had equalised! But no – the ref signalled handball and the away fans weren’t happy…
That was a goal from ozil. Terrible call ref, terrible call.

Even though replays showed that the ref was correct…
Yep.. that's a forearm. #AFC https://t.co/ptvFjdpEBm

They continued to be annoyed at the poor official…
No way the ref saw that. But the right decision. #ozil

what I want to know is how exactly the ref saw that "handball" from Ozil and why it took him so long to call it.

Things got worse in the 29th minute when Thomas Muller scored via a deflection…
GOALLL!
Bayern again through Thomas Müller!

Moral was low…
Hope we avoid the Europa league

Bayern could score 10, if they really wanted.

And then David Alaba did this…

Some Gooners believed it was inevitable…
Bayern just too good so far. Playing like this, they're too good for anyone right now.
— RG (@GeezyPeas) November 4, 2015
But others were more critical…
None of these Bayern goals have been impossible to stop. Arsenal have been poor, suffering from absentees and players undperforming.
— James Dall (@JamesDall_) November 4, 2015
Anyway, enjoy the second half & keep your fingers crossed that Zagreb can get out of Athens with a result.
— RG (@GeezyPeas) November 4, 2015
It got worse in the second half when Arjen Robben came on – and scored with his first touch…

There was a particular scapegoat that was identified…
Debuchy needs to piss off out of this club with his shit tattoos. 😭
— Keir Starmer Number 1 Hater (@DoubleDeka) November 4, 2015
Debuchy has saved Jenkinson's Arsenal career.
— Paddy (@PaddyArsenal) November 4, 2015
Debuchy should retire
— PB (@OliPriceBates) November 4, 2015
Whilst others felt most of the team was culpable…
Looks like Coquelin is the only Arsenal players who get the Pressing Memo #HeadlessChickens

Just a few minutes before Arsenal’s goal, Guess-who came out with this…
Is Giroud playing?
I'm serious, I haven't heard his name mentioned once on the radio. #afc— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) November 4, 2015
Olivier Giroud’s goal had the supporters in sarcastic mood…
COME BACK IS ON!
— PB (@OliPriceBates) November 4, 2015
Only THIS Arsenal side would showboat at 4-1 down
— Andrew Allen (@AAllenSport) November 4, 2015
Before Thomas Muller rounded off the rout…
GOAL!
Bayern Munich 5-1 Arsenal (Muller 89’)
Time to dance https://t.co/Q9Y1QqpQMw

5-1. What a terrible night. Still at least rival fans could laugh…
