I used to believe when he started out that he would be like Pep and just needed his players but with each setback I thought that less and less.
He’s got his whole team now and I’m actually, genuinely, seriously going to give him a clean slate for this season because that’s better for my mental health than being convinced he’s sh*t.
Although pre-season means nothing it’s the best one we’ve had in years so I’m just gonna try ride the positivity. I’m such a sucker.
Why can’t you read?
You have Dokaka arguing we're not better than Leicester.
As in Arteta out? Sure, we are +3,500 pages into that, aren't we?Missed 8 pages, is the PR in full swing yet?
You’re not fully behind Arsenal???You and I have been critical but when you look at the "plan" these guys are actually on track. Just about and through pure expenditure mostly, rather than being the smartest or resourceful about it.
Top 4 is an absolute must this season though otherwise for the first time I think Arteta will genuinely be in trouble, like foreal this time. I didn't think so before but now I do.
Next summer that's when Arsenal should be looking at the Van Dijk & Allison signings wherever they need it and really going for it.
I'm not fully behind Arsenal because of reasons, but yeah clean slate is fair.
It is what most managers do out there, it's just us Arsenal fans who were used to magic from Wenger to pull out cheap unexpected transfers that would very often work in amazing ways for us.You and I have been critical but when you look at the "plan" these guys are actually on track. Just about and through pure expenditure mostly, rather than being the smartest or resourceful about it.

F*ck City.You’re not fully behind Arsenal???
Try Man City mate.
Agree that the top 4 is a must now, not to please the fans though, money will be much needed to repay all of this
Last year should have been top 4 and now we’ve got one of the brightest young French national team stars at the back and Pep has given his buddy two very good City players to bolster the attack and mid/defence.You and I have been critical but when you look at the "plan" these guys are actually on track.

Yeah, I remember pointing this out a couple of years ago, but oh no, it was all down to Klopp and nothing to do with money. Remember getting berated by Hairspray about it.In theory, Arsenal would need one more £150 mil summer in order to reach the £400 mil+ mark which is what Liverpool and City spent to win their titles.
Would have been reached sooner if the sales were better and if some of the players were utilised a bit better. Essentially a slightly better pair than Arteta and Edu would have the team challenging with this kind of expenditure (in my opinion).
This article is biased, but it made me think of the above. Liverpool's net spend at the time they won their Premiership title was £90mil, but they had in actually spent 400 mil.
The £400m truth about Liverpool title win and how City really compare
A recent stat puts something of a spin on transfer spending but Jurgen Klopp could still beat Guardiola record with Liverpoolwww.liverpoolecho.co.uk
