Mikel Starteta Wars - Phase I: The Empire's Firing Blanks

[GDeep™]

Judging by recent results and performances, we’re comfortably losing against Madrid.

So since I've asked many times who the members of this "fan club" is, I've had a look at posts and all I can see are posters who are pro-Arteta but moderates taking the mick out of a very low intelligence poster.

Who is the equivalent of a Farzad or a GDeepfanboy on the pro-Arteta side? I'll wait.

There is no fan club. It’s pure fiction. There’s one group who aren’t happy with the trajectory we’re going in and are prepared to give him one more window, and would reasonably ask for a change after that. The other group are pure vitriolic and it’s hard to fathom the pure hate and the personal attacks. Weird mess.

Well, yeah.

 

[Halcyon Daze]

He isn’t going anywhere. As said constantly, good coach but no experience in getting a team over the line. Would be dumb to not see how the dynamic with Berta unfolds rather than making a snap decision. Any regression, nobody here would be against a change. But spitting venom and personally insulting people is childish and reductive. It is what it is. For now.

The Bernabéu tie is where I think we'll fall short. I feel like the lights will be a bit too bright for a few of our players. Like you, I think we'll do well at home and potentially even win the home leg.

I dont know what I will do if we somehow get to the final and lose against Emery there.

I might have to support Real Madrid to avoid it.

If we beat Real and Villa beat PSG, then we can only meet Emery in the semi.

God, please no. I rather lose to Real than having the prospect of somehow losing to Emery on the way to a final.

That "good ebening" in his post match interview might crash this forum.

Watkins getting a brace, as well.

..then Emi saving the final penalty from Zinchenko and doing his silly dance

Oh God, I'd forgotten that Madrid is where he has the least confidence.

 

[Tourbillion]

Villa is such a weird team. Distinctly pointless in the PL yet they're in the CL quarters in their one and only season in it for decades?

And of course we'll face Emery if we go through. And of course we'll get knocked out by him again.

Then Villa will unbelievably win this thing.

Easy there tiger, you might put Nostradamus out of work.

I think Artetas men are good enough to beat real. Slight advantage to Madrid’s cause of cup experience and front line though

Slight advantage? We are massive underdogs imo, especially with no striker.

They'll be open though, we have a chance if Saka is fit.

Saka won’t be fit/sharp till next season.

Can I just say, we weren't a laughing stock previously. We were just irrelevant.


We are a laughing stock these days. The amount of memes about how we finish 2nd, how we always bottle crunch games and how we always say next season is our year has made us outright laughing stock

If you’re allowing memes to dictate club sentiment then you’ve got issues with the content you’re consuming and how you’re perceiving it.

I don’t know any serious people who consider us a laughing stock. Maybe there’s plenty who don’t think we have what it takes to get over the line and that’s a fair criticism, but a laughing stock is Man Utd, not Arsenal.
