    Not saying benitez is a bad manager but he's not the man he was. Same with mourinho. Both are
    Conte went into Meltdown . But don't whataboutery on Rafa.

    Not a bad manager but wasn't what he was .It's why no big club has taken him on since

    Unal Emery set to be announced as Arsenal's manager. Got to admit, that's come as a shock considering Arteta was favourite for so long and given that we were led to believe the deal was all but done.

    Interesting appointment but more proven than Arteta I guess.

    Imo arteta had zero right to that job.

    Yep won the EL with Sevilla multiple times and got sacked at PSG despite winning the title and manager of the year. PSG is a s*** job, disappointed Tuchel took it tbh.

    Thank f*** someone agrees with me on Arteta. I don't see how he was considered really, might have great ideas but Arsenal going straight in for an unproven, 36 year old just didn't sit right. The counter-argument would be that Barcelona have managed to do it a few times (I think?) but even those managers had coaching experience with their own B teams or whatever.

    Arsenal probably thought about the shambles Man U have become post Fergie, and decided to get a proven name in :bandit:

    Emery is sadly a very wise choice for Arsenal

    Yeah Barca promoted from within so managers coming to the first team had actual experience as a manager/coach. Arteta hasn't done anything yet. It's just kind of a cool and trendy thing to potentially do at the moment isn't it. He needs to go and get a job at the beginner level he's at before a team like Arsenal should seriously consider him

    If I'm being honest I think his record outside the Europa League triumphs with Sevilla isn't particularly stand out.

    He was nothing special in the league there, he didn't do great at Spartak Moscow & he managed to take over PSG when they had won 4 consecutive league titles and lost out to Monaco in his first season.

    Not saying he's a bad manager, but I don't think he's on the level of a Mourinho, Klopp, Guardiola, Conte etc. coming in. I might be wrong but I believe there were better, fresher choices out there that could have done more for the club.
