[SA Gunner]

Why has it taken over 2 weeks to get him, poverty stuff!

We likely been chasing pavements yet again, and now left with Mikel.

Because of the game yesterday. How many times do you want it repeated?

Mokbel and Keegan reporting that Arteta will have final interview with Josh Kroenke tonight.

The Acid test will be convincing a paranormal committee of 3 composed of Herbert Chapman, Bertie Mee & Peter Hill-Wood that he's the right man for the job.

Ram that present right up your arse, G. Disgraceful appointment.

Happy birthday , Rich

The look on Arteta's face whilst watching the match last night was of a man assessing a problem he got landed with.

I think he's coming.

Which says a lot about his supposed intelligence. Who in their right mind want to land in the midst of this chaos ridden club? No sane manager who seeks to damage his unknown credentials

This was probably his last chance at this job for the foreseeable future.

If he failed you appoint new manager that's how football work these days you won't get managers who stay here for alot of years unless he is very successful like klopp. We hope Arteta do well with us the board will support him in transfers we spent 200M with Emery in charge.

If Arteta struggles, in 2 years you appoint someone else. Isn’t that what everyone else does?

 

[Preacher]

Line-Breaking Passes per 90 by Premier League Midfielders (2019-20):

11.64 – Pogba
11.03 – De Bruyne
10.83 – Winks
10.46 – Guendouzi
10.44 – Xhaka
10.44 – Rodri
10.21 – Jorginho
10.20 – Kovačić
10.11 – Norwood
10.04 – Kanté
9.52 – Capoue
9.42 – Henderson

Shame that both Xhaka and Guendouzi are poor defensively. Also there is no need to play them together. I hope that Arteta wont make the same mistakes as Emery.

Yes you'll keep try until you find the guy who get the team going

 

[OnlyOne]

One player that I really hope can excel under a guy like Arteta would be Xhaka, I hate him but if Arteta can work his magic then we could at least get 30M in Jan for him.

Tom Whittaker doesn't get a say?

 

[Sapient Hawk]

This was probably his last chance at this job for the foreseeable future.

If he stinks up the place, it'll be his only crack at a top 6 club. He best come prepared with the following :

1. A very capable staff
2. A plan that's possible to execute with the current team

Totally agree. Its a huge risk for us but for arteta if it goes horribly wrong he will end up like steve mcclaren

 

[GDeep™]

More than most other new managers, the make up of his back room staff is going to be very interesting,

Make that a committee of 4. We need all the help from beyond the grave that we can muster

Footballs were footballs back then. Try heading one of those now and its straight to hospital for a head injury assessment!

 

[SA Gunner]

Clearly the decision makers have seen things that have convinced them of Arteta's quality. Added to that are quality reviews from professionals in the game as well as managers like Wenger, Potchettino and of course Guardiola.

I think our bigger concern should be the club's role in support of our incoming manager. We cannot continue with our small mindedness and expect Arteta to be a success.

Not my choice, but we must consider that this appointment could mark the change we may need to truly take this club forward. And I'm all for that.
