Arteta In by November
Country: USA
Player:Ødegaard
Only hope for Ange second season trophy is Europa now
They will improve over the next couple of years - they have a lot of young talented players that have gained considerable playing time. I don't they will be successful under Ange but they should keep on following this path - need to continue to play attacking football but with some balance. They would be crazy to pivot again and bring in a manager to play pragmatic football with a team of old dinosaurs.
Building a young team is their only hope - they cant bring in established stars. The biggest problem for them is they are unable to recruit a few high quality established players to combine with the young talent. Guys like Madison are definitely not it.
They will continue to back Ange this season as long as they don’t get relegated.
As you say building with youth in the hopes the team matures together, that seems to be the plan there. The dominant attacking approach and familiarity under Ange being their way of stabilising and becoming somewhat competitive again.
Don’t think we’ll see more balance, rather Ange building a team to play his style as best as possible and they go from there.
At best, I’d say a top 4 side and cup contender. And an outside contender for the league. A 75-80 point team
I doubt he will survive but the next manager may benefit from the youth that he has blooded. They do need more balance than what Ange provides, its just too open in a lot of games, but they still should try to play a dominant style.
I remember there being some genuinely cringe posts about what a good manager big Ange was and how he proved unlike Arteta that you didn’t need X years and Y transfer spend in order to deliver results. Who would have guessed that mindless attacking football wasn’t a winning strategy?Still remember this place getting worried after Postecoglou's first 10 games.

Alright OnlyAnge.He’s spot on, should be doing better but what can you do with his injuries, similar to United last season.
They`ve had some really poor results even with VDV, Romero, Solanke etc but without the injuries they would probably be in with a shout for 4th. What he says is obviously correct even though the idiots in media won`t see it. Playing a 18 yeard midfielder as CB every third day for two months will obviously cost you.He’s spot on, should be doing better but what can you do with his injuries, similar to United last season.
Yes indeed, their in game management is not good enough and forces them to run too much. It’s why they run out of steam and get injured.
I think it goes in two ways if Ange makes it to the summer window. Either he adapts his style to slow Sp**s down making them more of a game controller. Or he pushes on and gets in more players who can force through his constant running and looking to be dominant game.
If Ange is smart he’ll adapt his game to progress Sp**s and as a manager himself.
Sometimes I really understand Lee Gunner
Yes, you and Lee Gunner are kindred spirits. If you stopped being a hater for just a minute you would see that we have actually been pretty similarOur fans on twitter saying we had more injuries than Sp**s this season. Sometimes I really understand Lee Gunner
Or counting guys like Tierney, Tomiyasu and Zinchenko as equal to what Sp**s has is downright misleadingYes, you and Lee Gunner are kindred spirits. If you stopped being a hater for just a minute you would see that we have actually been pretty similar

D*ckriding for Sp**s is insane. Hop on their forum for two seconds and all you'll read is us being called c*nts and how much they hate us. It's insane to me that you will go out of your way to speak up for them when nobody has asked for your opinion. How about defending the team you allegedly support for onceOr counting guys like Tierney, Tomiyasu and Zinchenko as equal to what Sp**s has is downright misleading
Sp**s has missed their keeper, first pairing CBs and starting left back for weeks. You add Madison and Solanke, Arsenal has never had close to that many starters injured. In fact I can’t remember when one of our two starting CBs didn’t start a game or Raya missing more than 1 game
