Life After Emery Begins

never mind all those so-called ITKs - this is the stuff of proper inside information

I am from Didsbury (Manchester) and I can actually confirm he does live there

Lets hire a van and put it outside his house!

I am from the van and can confirm it's actually moving currently

This football club is run so poorly it is unbelievable. Must as the way Pochettino was ousted and Mourinho installed with some haste left a sour taste, it was the decisive behaviour of a management that knew what they wanted and went and did it without any prevarication. We're now 3 weeks on from sacking Emery and still it seems nothing is 100% decided. In some respects I feel sorry for Arteta because unless he is some sort of genius or a magician, if he is expected to get top 4 with this squad or on a limited budget then he is being thrown to the wolves. The expectations appears to be "improve the players we have", well the expression you can't polish a turd springs to mind. If Sokratis, Mustafi or Luiz can't defend, I can't imagine there's much any coach can do to change that. One can only hope that at least he might be able to instill a bit of heart into the players but I'm sceptical on that. There doesn't seem to be much professional pride among the players, almost as if they know they'll pick up their wages regardless, and then want to move on. Ultimately the only hope is that Kroenke decides to cut and run, sooner rather than later, as there will be no improvement until this happens.
Perhaps then we'll behave like a proper football club.

Another week of one of the worst interim managers in history.

Can't wait!

I actually dread match days. I used to hate international breaks but now I actually look forward to them as it's 2 weeks without our shambles pouring more disappointments upon us!

 

[Martin Harvey]

Hmm how did that happen

 

[Kingslayer]

Shame. Now this won't happen:

Shame. Now this won't happen:

Arteta played for Oxford?

I'm not worried to be honest. Pep and the club don't seem to be desperate to keep hold of him and if he, or Pep, thought that he was going to take over once Pep left then then he would be staying.

I'm really surprised Arsenal want him though. After the Wenger/Emery debacle you would think a safe pair of hands, like Ancelotti, would be ideal. Someone who knows the market, has won trophies and has a proven record. Arteta doesn't fit that bill one bit.

In a way, I see it that we're going to be weakening a .. 'rival'. Arteta won't be the first "number 2" to watch his boss and have ideas above his station.

Bluemoon have already reached the "he wasn't that good anyway" stage

 

[Kingslayer]

Arteta played for Oxford?

No one cares about the League Cup. It only exists in a parallel universe.

Chuck turns up at Colney to be told to come back tomorrow. Meanwhile, Arsenal go ahead with today's Press Conference as planned...

Semi. That feels like a win.
