Mikel Arteta: All The President’s Men

[UnbiasedNeutral]

How is it a great second half if the manager keeps Ceballos on after almost getting a second yellow a minute into the second half?

We managed 5 minutes of possession and you call it a great second half?

I’m sorry, Manberg, but you’re stretching it. The only two shots on target were from the penalty we got and from a late Auba chance when he finally decided to put a center half on after witnessing 85 minutes of one of our worst performances under him.

Today is not excusable for Arteta. He literally got everything he could wrong and insisted on his mistakes.

I hope he can turn it around the second leg, I really do. But tonight we saw the worst side of him yet.

Is Martinelli not a striker now? You came out strong at the start of the 2nd half, got a man sent off and rode the storm. Came back into the game and played reasonably well.

My man Mikel. Please don't over complicate things. Just keep it simple.
Was it him who influenced pep all the time with weird formations in cl when they crash out vs Lyon this season pep had a proper line up.

 

[HaffBR]

TOTAL ****!!!

This team Auba upfront and Martinelli left (or even upfront) would be a easy WIN to Arsenal. Now, that fraud is still alive.

If he maintais his initial lineup that game would be 3-0 Villarreal minimum, however.

Again, a decent manager with a good man management would elevate this Arsenal to the TOP4, in fact it is a EASY job overcome this Arteta's work! Arteta is costing Arsenal a lot of points and the main problem, the future as well... with his rigid tactical views (poor imitation) and low IQ.

Anyways this match atleast proved we were right to sack emery. Proper manager would have ended us today.

Past Unai and on to the PE teacher in the final.

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Not sure how the players even support him trying a new thing every game.

 

[Jack badmon]

Absolute charlatan. I just have a vision of him in the interview for the job just repeating everything pep says and basically faking it to making it so much that the dumb ****s believed his bullshit.

It's been the same since October, no idea why people are acting like this is the straw that breaks the camels back. If we didn't sack him in the winter we're not sacking him for this, even if we lose next week. He's clearly unsackable no matter what happens, otherwise he'd have been gone months ago. If you don't sack for losing to Burnley, Wolves, Villa, etc in the space of a few weeks then I don't see why it'd be any different now. None of this makes any difference. The club has just accepted we're mid-table.

Ceballos red card changed Arteta's strategy completely.

 

[El Duderino]

I reckon Arteta called Pep last night and asked for his homework notes and Guardiola was like “Just change it a little bit so it doesnt look like you’ve coppied, mate.” .

 

[Yousif Arsenal]

Past Unai and on to the PE teacher in the final.

Oleh might finally going to win trophy utd fans still want him out

 

[dka1]

Listen if we make it past Villareal by some miracle, United will crucify us, guarantee it.

Cavani will run riot, god help me I can't take this after Baku.

 

[krengon]

Only positive today was the result and we lost Very very lucky the tie wasn’t over today, can thank Emery for that.

I have the guy ingnored... Don't feed the troll

You only need a 1-0 win at home. I think you’ll qualify.

Emery will try to shut up shop in second leg and you’ll scrape through again I reckon.

 

[Legend14]

Head scratcher starting ESR up top. He can’t affect the game from up there and he hasn’t played there all season. Overthinking again to get best players on the pitch at the same time.

Already mentioned and it continues to be proven that Ødegaard and Saka don’t mix well on the same side. Both great players but something is wrong there.

Should have kept ESR central and played a CF, but I am just a fan, what do I know?

Yeah funny that we started playing well when we got sent off.

We’re not keeping a clean sheet at home.

 

[Camron]

@Riou you got some stats that highlight the process? I'm looking at progressive throw ins per 90.

 

[Ash10]

You sick bastard. 2-0 down at half time?

We better win this competition or else I want you dead, Mikel. You deserve death. Sick of your shenanigans.

Okay pal it’s time to go to bed
