Do think it’s funny how people suddenly act like the FA Cup is the Champions League when five years ago it was a nothing competition apparently.

I always loved it, but I agree with you...it was just another way to knock Arsène back then from the press/pundits etc.

I got onboard with Arteta cause of it but I am glad you are honest and said this.
It's been twisted to suit whatever the current narrative is unfortunately. Still a special achievement, especially when you remember the first half of last season.

Cross another of my dream targets off the list.
I’m hearing Roy’s out at Palace and Howe’s coming in.

He’s done a lot for that club which I think is unappreciated.
Got them comfortably safe every year he’s been there on a relative shoestring which let Parish upgrade their academy to Cat 1 status.
They’ll need investment or I reckon they’re in trouble next year. Oldest squad in the league and half of them have contracts running out in the summer.

Been very impressed with Scotty P.
Got Fulham playing some truly sexy football after their struggles in the early part of the season.
Think he might make a good England manager, with the current squad.
It seems negative on the surface but that could be a decent way for them reset their squad. Other than PVA, Mitchell and maybe Townsend all of their players are non-contributors in their late 20's or 30's.

They'd be nowhere without Zaha. I can see them being relegated after next season given their trajectory for a while.

Its mental to me that Mitchell could potentially walk after a break out season. Such poor contract management.
We’d have to pay them compensation but that’d be top business for us.
getting Meyer out last month & Bentekes contract up in the summer must be huge.. thats rumored to be close to 250k a week

I just don't see Henry ever having a great managerial career. Think he should stick to a coaching role, as that seems to be where he can be most affective. Just my opinion though.@krengon let's go

From what I have seen I agree. He seems to not understand why players aren't world class.
He's still young like Mikel though, can change.

He has a similar coaching path and set of criticisms (like what you mentioned) as Jason Kidd in the NBA. And now Kidd is an assistant coach.
Yeah, but maybe it would be good to actually stay somewhere for a while and at least do solid work for a sustained while. Not use every opportunity to try and jump a little higher when you're clearly not ready to make the jump yet.
Incidentally Jesse Marsch also coached Montreal and was doing rather meh, but took a step back to being an assistant again before joining the RB franchise where he stayed for 3.5 years at New York. Then even took another step back to become Rangnick's assistant at Leipzig being groomed for the European part of the RB franchise. Meanwhile he's won an Austrian double, plays EL with Salzburg and is linked to CL clubs or clubs contending for CL spots like Leipzig, Gladbach, Dortmund.
Henry felt he was too good to be a youth coach for Arsenal, spent two years in the joke job of an NT assistant, crashed and burned at Monaco and now after not even 30 games is again linked to European job. Will never understad how guys without credentials who have neither shown the will to buckle down and prove themselves or shown sustained good work get jobs in tier 1 and 2 leagues.
