Even if we go down this line, you can counter all this by saying a few years later Wenger built a totally new team and went on to have further success.6 of the 11 that started the FA Cup final in 1998 were Graham's men, so we're back down to 7.

I guess the same can be said for Pep for his management or mismanagement of Rodri?
Oh nah...
City has one key player out..we have 3 ...oh yeah...thats the same. .
How are City doing with that one player out?
And I wonder if that also makes Pep a fraud by your logic…
The 2020 FA cup winning team was Wenger's team if anyones, certainly not Emery's...out of the 11 starters that day, 7 were given their debuts here by Arsène...plus Unai got battered by Chelski in the cup final the year before in 2019 anyway, we owe him nothing really.
How about that @Sapient Hawk , this way Arteta has won 0 major trophies here AND Wenger's record FA haul is increased to 8...win-win in my book that!

Tbf he put a brave face on things and just sort of said “let’s get on with it”. He could have been a lot more negative. Pretty sure other managers have had full on temper tantrums in similar situations.
Klopp would be calling for the Carabao cup to be scrapped and Infantino to resign. But Arteta still has the reputation of being the difficult one.
Tbf to Mik that's what he does most of the times no matter what the circumstances are. It's actually few and far between that he starts blaming loads of external things. Even when we're screwed by refs he doesn't even dwell on it too much.
Emery was not keeping a clean sheet against City in the FA Cup semis if his life depended on it.The 2020 FA cup winning team was Wenger's team if anyones, certainly not Emery's...out of the 11 starters that day, 7 were given their debuts here by Arsène...plus Unai got battered by Chelski in the cup final the year before in 2019 anyway, we owe him nothing really.

That’s not as impressiveHe (and Coquelin) did keep a clean sheet against Assna in London in the Europa League semi-final less than a year later though.
That’s not as impressive
