Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.

[wilson2.0]

There is a mentality that exits in our club where the idea is the club and fans owe time, chances and opportunity to the players and manager. It really should be the other way around. The manager and players need to be in debt to Arsenal. Arteta shouldn't be relaxed as he feels he is entitled to an infinite amount of time. He should be worried about keeping his job

[augie]

I suspect our best hope of seeing a change in manager is if things implode from within, and I suspect that there will be a few in the squad unhappy with some of the comments from holding in this interview

The part that might sting is where he complains about the team not taking their chances, and I suspect that the strikers might have an issue with that and ask what chances are the team making. If the squad start fighting amongst themselves it would suggest that (a) last weeks team meeting/inquest either done no good, or done harm cos it allowed players to point finger at each other or (b) that their is growing dis-satisfaction amongst the players with what is going on, despite comments in the media from bellend.

As I said already, I dont care what forces change as long as we get it

When it came to finding a new manager after Emery, the club could have gone for someone tried and tested but instead went for the pet project and in the most Wengeresque way possible. They are now kicking the can down the road and refusing to accept reality. If we fuck Arteta off now, we can get in someone decent who can at least buy a few players in January and target the EL or we can ruin that by sacking him at the end of the season and wasting our time with the rest of this season.

I dont care if we sign nobody in January - I want a manager to come in and identify the nowhere near good enough players (xhaka and willian for starters) and get them out of the squad straight away, and remove the likes of bellend from the team at same time. I want him to look at auba and build a strategy around him cos without his goals we are in serious trouble. I want him to light a fire under those that have been on easy/lazy street so far this season (auba included), and I want him to tell them (in convincing manner), that every single one of them is on trial for their futures at AFC.

Finally I want him to instill a bit of physicality into their mindsets - I keep hearing how we are working so much harder defensively under arteta ( ), but when have you ever seen a bone shaking tackle from one of our players that lets the opposition know early that we are not just gonna run around a lot, but we are actually gonna fight you for every minute of this game. I want to restore that rep where we intimidated teams before games even kicked off, and you dont have to have a team of big 6 foot players to do that - it isnt the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog

Max Allegri please.

[Redarmy]

As stated when Emery went we need an established experienced manager not a novice, we are way too big a club for a fucking learner

[LeftfootlegendGooner]

Is warnock busy, him or dave Bassett are proven at getting teams promoted

Allegri was interviewed in November 2019 after Emery was sacked . Apparently he made demands that the board were not prepared to accept and he was deemed arrogant.
Although the chairs in our boardroom have changed the man that signs the cheques hasn't .

[StuartL]

On paper we have strengthen recently with Tierney, Gabriel and Partey looking significant upgrades for the first 11.
However the style of play is as bad as it was under the latter days of Wenker, or Emery.

The playing out from the back
The pass, pass, pass, pass philosophy has to stop.

We can’t expect players to do what they are not capable of doing - for some tying their bootlaces is quite a task

Brilliant thread title :barscarf:Looking at the fixture list I have gone for January. I think he will resign rather than be sacked.
