Mikel Arteta: Winner 🤴

[Farzad]

6 points behind with the Opp having a game in hand meaning possible 9 points advantage. Add GD in it and it’s the equivalent of 12points ahead.

That’s pretty far when challenging for the title. Had we been in a 3-6 point range and played equal amount of games along with close GD it would be a different story.

As it is we are pretty far from winning. That wasn’t even the point of the post. The point is you can’t blame the owners for the way the team has played that’s down to the players and the manager. Yousif was deflecting in his previous post by making it seem that Arteta has not been given resources.

It is so funny how all of a sudden the Kroenkes aren’t spending enough. We are among the handful of biggest spenders in Europe and our strikeforce is worst of any elite team in Europe. Clearly, @Yousif Arsenal is doing what he always does; blame everyone but the one man responsible. Arteta

Last I checked, we're hovering around 5th in spending and wages in PL so all of this is just the usual waffle from the serial moaners.

We spent 50 million on Left back Cala. I like him as a player....but maybe instead of spending on a position you could have got by...why not invest that in a striker.

It's mismanagement of funds.

We don't use Euros on here.

What striker though? City and Villa have them. Look at their GD vs ours. Same for Newcastle.

Pool doesn't even have a striker. They have Diaz playing their now.

We are going to be okay.

They don’t have a striker but have top goalscorer and player in league. You are nuts. Everyone can see we are one elite striker from breaking through

Top 2 in the PL and top 3 in the CL currently. Only team ahead of us is Pool and Barca (CL).

Lets see if we have a title end of the season before boasting about top 2 and top 3.

Why did he reject a Tel loan?

Because he won't make a difference, we have Nwaneri who is ahead in terms of development.

It doesn’t matter we are darkhorses at best for either and 95 percent will fail in both

GD means 1 point not 3. Come on mate

We screw up in the summer and then make excuses that nobody is available in Jan. Top tier trolling.

PL we have a shot. Pool has the same personnel that faded away last year.

CL is tougher. The double leg games are when Mik struggles.

Oh yeah that is where he struggles in cup ties; as opposed to in match substitutions, rating players without emotion, building a balanced side, tactical adjustments, and not destroying out of favor players resale value where he excels, lol. Other than motivation, PR, and hiring a great set piece coach it’s hard to see where he excels

I don’t get it? In most sports despite the obvious consistent quality the runner ups; especially serial runner ups are mocked and an object of derision. Before I get the cranky Duck on my arse for talking sh.tty American sports on here; the Bills lost 4 straight Super Bowls in 90s by ever worse margins. They became the butt of jokes for generations. Lebron has played in almost twice as many finals as Jordan; despite winning 4 titles the first knock on him in a GOAT debate is finals he lost to incredible to teams.

Thanks Mik; you successfully made us the most hated and mocked; probably unjustly thing in sports; the perennial bridesmaid. Those poor Bills fans still more than a quarter century are clowned by older stand up comedians. Great; let Miksexualism thrive and flourish he spent a fortune to make us freaking generational comedy fodder.

Before @Synical gets on my arse Haaland is right we should stay humble and hungry about our non accomplishments. He won the Treble, until you add something of his level; we look like clowns not realizing we should stay humble. Wtf is everyone so cocky about?

Just an ordinary troll who doesn't have a clue about football.
Nothing more, nothing less.

We need people like him for this place to fun. We can't have everyone being agreeable.

We are 6 points behind them and they have a game in hand and a +8 GD advantage over us. If we are going to close the points gap it means they will need to lose 3 games (or draw a bunch of games) while we win 3. Such a run of results would most likely wipe out their GD advantage and give us the edge there. If we do catch up with them on points the GD will take care of itself.
