Mikel Arteta: Aston La Vista To The Title?

[Makingtrax]

Of course he knew it was happening, just like he knew Dani Cebellos was happening despite wanting someone else (who’s name I forget).

He was coach though, not manager.

Ridiculous how we went from a coach used to working with teams with less money than the richest in the league, to a cheque book manager. Not sure what KSE was thinking giving the former only one year to try and get in the top 4, but allow the latter to try a 4th attempt. A very expensive experiment.

Even as coach, he has the power to say “no don’t sign this player” and management would be forced to consider.

Guys like Raul would have final say though. It’s not like know where Arteta is the manager and not only coach, he has final say on any first team matters.

Raul doesn’t know more about football and what works than Unai. What is quite clear to me is that Emery never spoke against Pepe’s signing before it happened, only complaining about it after it didn’t work out, which is the easy thing to do.

Dragging the luddites into the modern era kicking and screaming. I love it.

We are spending now because if not, we were staring at midtable.

That's where this failed incompetent twerp has firmly planted us.

He conspired to finish 8th with a squad that missed out on CL football by a few points & repeated the miserable feat in his first full season.

Now, after being backed to the tune of approximately £300 million, bottled a genuine chance at top 4 & will most likely have us languishing behind the chasing pack yet again.

But, because he is mysteriously "liked" he'll get a pat on the book & told to continue immersing the club in the cultural reset.

Arteta hasn’t even qualified for UCL in year 3, let alone win it. So that plan‘s out of the window. Nothing went bang, and he’s still not the solution.

Willian:“When I talked with the manager he told me why he needed me for three years. It was that he first wanted to qualify for the Champions League and win it by the time I left. That was what I wanted to hear.

I can see what Willian saw in Tets, a fellow bullshitter!

He knew we had no hope of qualifying for the CL, let alone winning the bloody thing. But it was a better cover story than wanting to stay in London free of pressure & keeping tabs on his restaurant with Luiz

If only we played fluid attacking football where that technical quality could be seen.

@grange

All of them put together aren't even half as technical as Özil was in his prime.

Yeah in the end it doesn't matter much

Still remember that stat about Ødegaard the super chance creator, and the highlight videos were basically him vs Norwich

Technique is just a trait, nothing else. If it was so important someone like Cedric would be a good footballer.

It seems like he is a complete idiot so my wild guess is HairSpray.

Wonder what those guys define as negative fans? Anything beyond praising Tricky Mik at all costs? Partially joking, and I say partially, because some of the fandom I see on Twitter is way beyond unhealthy. Whatever happened to having good discussions about the club without falling into borderline fanboy wars? Maybe there never was a time for that lol.

Think most of these guys are kids tbh.

Arguing on Twitter is a legit hobby for some of them.

Yeah, you are probably right. Twitter and Reddit are probably the worst places on the internet to interact with fans in general. Forums are much preferred, which usually have an older demographic. Not that forums are perfect, but at least the shock value posting is less frequent.

Single-celled ****, the lot of them.

Once their pied piper ****s off, hopefully, they'll follow suit!

I would never have put it that mildly.

Here we are 5 years on and still not fully recovered from the mess Wenger left.
