It's only fair to not share the excitement for Arteta, obviously everybody is entitled to his/her own opinion, but it's poverty imo to go full rage on his potential appointment when you aren't capable mentioning one viable alternative.

And no, Rodgers, Poch, Nagelsmann, Ten Haag, Benitez, Nuno and the likes are not available, so don't use them to push your argument.

There's basically only one obvious "proven winner" option out there which is Ancelotti, but what's also part of this experience/proven narrative is that he hasn't been a winner ever since Madrid.

What he did at Bayern was plain average and even put them back in their development.
If you'd say he's proven, you'd rather say he's proven to be on decline.

Some of them don't deserve to play, putting in nowhere near enough effort.

how the fu ck would the sun know what our players are thinking anyways :lol: they were against emery, against freddie and now against arteta :lol: such an easy job, can just make **** up and print it

It's a moot point because Arsenal isn't going to hire Carlo, but even if you dismiss his success at Bayern he's still a more "proven winner" than those you mentioned. Neither Pochettino nor Nagelsmann have ever won a trophy. Nuno has only won the EFL Championship. Rodgers won a lot managing Celtic, but I could have managed them to the title without Rangers competing. Ten Hag won last year's Eredivisie, but that's hardly a high level of competition. The only one you mentioned who is a proven winner at any significant level is Benitez.

So you're really holding Carlo to an unrealistically high standard to which you're not holding any of the others. There are a number of perfectly understandable reasons for Arsenal to want to go with a younger manager who may represent a longer-term project, but this narrative that Carlo isn't good enough anymore because he didn't win a title at Napoli and for whatever nonsense reason Bayern doesn't count defies logic. If you're going to dismiss his championship at Bayern because they win the Bundesliga regularly, then you certainly can't give Rodgers credit for Celtic.

If a player has something against any new manager coming in then they can get the **** out of here.
They have the right to voice their concerns. Working under a **** coach does no one any good.

If its Arteta that they are hearing, they should rightly be asking questions. He has no experience and they, like everyone in this fan base, dont know what to expect. Is it excitement, indifference or absolute despair? We dont know until he actually comes in.

Happened with Arsène with a whole country asking "Arsène who" and his own players.

Imagine coming to office and you find out your new boss is someone who just came out of Uni with absolutely zero credentials and experience for the position he's now occupying.

Lovely stuff.

No one could have imagined for a single second that he would come to us. Only David Dein, Sol, his agent, and I knew what was going on. When I called a press conference to announce the arrival of a new player, and Sol Campbell walked into the room full of journalists, it was a bombshell.
