Arteta

[barneygumble]

Delighted he's failing, mainly for how he handled himself following his exit. Was a terrific footballer for us, but considering we helped him completely rebuild his career the fact he has said on more than one occasion that Arsenal are "his" team, and has no niceties about us, makes me feel somewhat against him.

But he works well with Pep, Pep works well with Arteta, that's what a few have learned recently. I wouldn't be wholly shocked to see him first sacked and return to City for next season, personally.

It's clearly not working, and when you lose the dressing room, you never rarely return.

Another Pep disciple coming unstuck in the PL... Much like Pep himself would be if he didn’t have a blank chequebook

They have a nice squad but not being managed properly at all.

I mean, do they?

They've got names, but not the unity at all. If you take Gabriel and Aubameyang out that side, they're extremely ordinary for me.

The likes of Leno, Bellerin, Luiz, Xhaka, Holding aren't players I want, maybe i'm just bias cause we got stung for £34m for Iwobi but of their younger players, Nketiah, Nelson, Smith-Rowe, Willock, they're not pulling up any trees either.

The sad thing for Arsenal is that they're owned by someone who only cares about one thing, and that's the money. Even without investing, they're still a huge cash cow to him, good thing for us, is it meant Usmanov cleared his hands of Arsenal.

Well I mean I think it’s a pretty decent squad anyway but personal opinion.

Mate of mine said last night, look at their squad, how many players would go to somewhere bigger or better than Arsenal? Maybe 1 or 2. It's a disgusting average squad.

The young lads for Arsenal have been playing really well in the Europa league but for some reason Arteta won't play them in the PL, lot's of the fans down here don't like it and want to see them getting game time. Arsenals senior players seem more a collection of individuals than a team, Arteta is not the first manager to try and get them playing together and i just think it's a case of that bunch of players can't play together, they have made some really odd signings these last few years.

This one I genuinely hope is okay. I dunno, seems like there might be other issues there.

Depends on what level you think Arsenal are as a club. I see them now as hoverring around the Top 6 and I think the squad has a lot of decent young talent that should easily be nurtured to meet those objectives. I agree it's average if you think they're going for league/Top 4.

 

[JMT]

Ancelotti walked into a worse squad than Arteta did imo.

 

[Pat Butcher]

They have still a decent squad and with a manager they would be in a decent position

Crazy all this media hype around Arteta, just because he looks good mind you, no other reason, needs time yet signed Cedric, Willian & got David Luiz & Aubameang new contracts so he needs to deliver now

Hope the media crucify him like they would with any other manager, shows how much they know

Even for a top six side, its extremely poor

Id say, Leno, Gabriel, Partey and Saka get in our team.

Aubameyang seems to be having a similar season to Richarlison.
