Mikel Arteta: All The President’s Men

[Batman]

People wonder how he gets Stan and Josh to keep buying him defenders. He's just stealing the money.

Does anyone feel he can finally win the title this season?

Its more likely that Seven Hag win a title. And that's not even a joke.

I found some meme It was Arteta and airpods Albert who tried to rob Özil and Kolasinac few years ago just to test their awareness and bravery

Zinchenko getting robbed while YNWA is playing over the PA system is pure unadulterated artistry.

This guy is weirdo, we got the Spanish JD Vance stalking our players. I bet ESR’s pot dealer was one of Mik’s undercover agents. Hiring pickpockets to rob his own players so they know Mik is always watching them.

Farzad and AM exclusive; Mik’s new motivational methods revealed, next he is going to hire martial artists to jump Saka and Martinelli in the street to keep them “alert”, here is his inspiration:

Alonso's got the grin of a man who won WC's and CL's and he's got to praise his pal who's always been way behind.

As it should be I guess . No order color beats it when portraying depth, deep, dark, extreme etc.

I personally find the kit to be the best 2nd/3rd kit of the Emirates era. And boy! Did we ball in that kit, with some wonderful memorable matches.

I've been trying to buy one for ages, but they all look counterfeit.

At a dinner with his players, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta secretly hired a team of professional pickpockets. The sleight-of-hand artists were tasked with going round the tables, pinching phones and wallets from an unwitting first-team squad.

Like you I also think there is room for accommodating the odd quirky/temperamental personalities especially when it comes to attackers.

But we grew up watching Wenger (who is from a nation where they unapologetically put political Mbappe or hot headed Zizou front and centre).

Spanish coaches on the other hand don’t really do that (Not just Mikel).

There's a balance there for sure, I don't think Wenger's attacks were as "let's see what happens" as we're lead to believe, heard that tosser GNev talk about it a fair bit. He said in one interview if the winger went "too narrow" he knew that Cole was filling that space at pace and if he or the winger didn't cover it they were in trouble.

Wing rotation with the wing backs was drilled in training which is why Lauren and Cole were such big weapons. He probably just let Henry and Bergkamp get on with it because they're so good and both also liked to float into pockets of space...you can't really teach them much, but the other players were drilled to some extent in attacking patterns for sure.

When Arteta came in he took an underperforming freeform attack inherited from Emery and a weak, chaotic defence and gave it structure, perhaps too much, but IMO it was necessary to impose a style of play from which the defenders and midfielders can understand how to build attacks.

Between this:



and his initial impressions on Tomiyasu when he was signed



Young Mik isn't fully shaking off the Rasmi Theory™ anytime soon.

At this stage I think it's becoming almost impossible to be close to/spend significant amount of time with Pep and not have some of his weirdness rob off on you. I can't remember Arteta being this cringe when he was playing for Arsenal.

He really needs to find some time to be around Wenger again to detox himself of Pep and add some more Wenger class, honestly

You may just have to keep your eyes peeled for when the official website introduces their retro kits for sale. They do it from time to time. I'd rather wait (I'm actually waiting) than settle for a counterfeit.

This criminal needs to be sacked before he starts riddling the team with charges for financial irregularities. We're not Man City.

Arteta "I find the colour black intimidating"

...this guy sometimes makes it quite hard to defend him ffs

He’s weird. People can dislike this as much as they want but both parts get more ridiculous every time you read it.

Disgrace.

Arteta associates the colour black with being intimidating.... Interesting.

Our best away kit ever in my opinion. Wasn't it sold out for a period of time?
