All left foot, greedy **** with a massive ego. Don't touch him with a ****ing barge pole.
For 2 years we bet on who would finish higher...now you are reduced to betting on you not getting relegated
FFS...gooners ****ed wenger off for this **** show

I feel for you mate, upton park was a brilliant ground. I used to go to college on the top floor of Newham college. We could see when the floodlights were on and chip off to watch the reserves for £2
Joke of a club. They got what they deserved when their clown shoe owners sacked Pearson with 2 games left last season. I reckon he’d have brought them back up tbh.Since the beginning of the 2008-09 season Spurs have had 6 managers....Watford area out to appoint the 6th manager in 14 months
They've had 16 permanent managers in 12 years ffs.
In the previous 105 years of their history (1903 to 2008) they'd only had 30 managers in total
I don’t see how he survives tbh mate. The MOTD stats on your recent games were truly shocking. You’re not getting attempts on target, and 8 points out of the last 12 games is relegation form. The players look completely devoid of belief and a coherent plan.
As much as ‘giving him time’ might seem to be the right thing to do, something has gone badly wrong in that dressing room imo.
they are in a worse state than we were when the call went in to big Sam. Shame as I see Arteta as a bloke who will change things at Arsenal, they have some bright young talent to come up. But he needs help moving on all the dross they have, the players without and fight.
Yeah I agree. He’s a fabulous player and along with De Bruyne should be the first name on his team sheet imo.
Doing well. My youngest's treatment has started after waiting for 11 months so, touch wood, she'll stop being in such a dark place.
Work was manic but am off for a while so enjoying time with them.
How about you mate?
You still managing to work?
Is Firminio trying to take off there, or just practicing the Funky Chicken?
I don't feel sorry for him. He'll keep Fulham up, and earn plaudits for doing so. Going by their proposed stadium improvements, it looks like the owners have a long term plan.
even if he goes down, they will stick with him. He will bring them back up.
I think so, yeah. It's quite possible they don't mind being a yo yo club for a while, that can be less risky over time than gambling everything on staying up then ending up with a bloated wage bill and a squad that lacks the bottle for a Championship campaign.
Yes bro. Full tilt at the moment. Busy doing Christmas markets (we’re thankfully in tier 1) which are still on. And the wholesale and online side of my business is really busy too.
Making hay whilst the sun shines because Jan to March is a quiet time for me anyway, and I reckon we’re gonna have another lockdown in Jan.
Glad to hear your daughter is getting her treatment mate. Hope the rest of the fam are all okay too. Give the spiritual home of football a nod from me mate
No doubt we are in a dark hole right at the moment, but I don't see what sacking him achieves. It just brings more instability, ditching a project that we've been trying to get going and throwing the club into more disarray. Any manager coming in will just face the same set of problems, which is a badly unbalanced squad, full of show ponies and deadwood on stupid wages.
We'll release a load of players this summer and free up some of those wages (Ozil being the prime example) I think Arteta needs time to shape this squad how he wants it, which means a least another couple of transfer windows. But, he may not have the luxury of being afforded the time to do this because we are in a hole
All of the things you point out are taking us on a headlong trajectory to a relegation battle. So he needs to start grinding out results whichever way he can and start getting some points on the board. Realistically I think he's got a couple of months to start turning it around, and by that I mean taking us away from the relegation zone. If he can do that, then the club will give him time. If we're still hovering around the drop zone come the end of Feb/March then they might have to pull the trigger.
Say you’re about to play Everton tomorrow again.
You can pick any 11 players from your squad.
So given how the players performed yesterday, who would you pick to stifle Everton?
I’m not sure there’s XI players who would boss that game, Everton probably have the better squad and players now.
They do. There's nobody in our team, apart from Partey who's injured, and Gabriel who's suspended, that would have given them any problems.
We need a wholesale clear out in the summer. And that includes Willian who's been utter ****. I'd rather see us accept that we're going to be midtable for a couple of seasons and let Arteta develop some youth and mould them into the team he wants. Rather than trying to get this current dross to perform each week.
Lot of stuff I'm reading about Arsenal is the same as a lot of Saints fans were saying towards the end with Mark Hughes.
"We can't keep sacking managers"
"He needs more time to get it right"
And my personal favourite: "Nobody out there who could do a better job with this group".
And look how that turned out.
It's all utter bollocks imo, the bloke is so far out of his depth it's unbelievable. They've got worse chance creation than Sheffield United or Burnley ffs!
