Arsenal

[yankspurs]

No one tunes into watch them when they’ve won. A few Arsenal fans, maybe, but the majority of his views come from opposition fans tuning in to watch the meltdown. That’s why he surrounds himself with mentally unstable cartoon characters, that’s why he sits there behind them quietly and snidely saying things like “we are going to be 15th.”

The more extreme the reaction from DT, the more shares, the more deluded the take is from Ty, the more shares. The more depressed and enraged Claude used to get the more shares etc.

The guy has essentially found a way to monetise their decline. His heart might want things to work out for Arteta, but his head and his wallet will want more bad results.

AFTV might be doing better now than they were under Wenger

There fans led campaigns against Wenger who always had them top 4. They led campaigns against Emery who had them just a little lower. Now they are 15th after 11 games on 13 points. It will take a miracle to pull that side out. Arteta is far too inexperienced to do it and still a large section of their fans laugh off arteta out. Unless Arterta gets lucky and strikes gold out of nowhere, they are in for a loooooong year.

Tbf, their criticism of Wenger was justified.

They may have gone about it the wrong way though.

Take heart in the fact that prior to the game he stated Tottenham as "irrelevant".

Tottenham are top of the league
Arsenal languishing in 15th

Who's irrelevant?

Aftv?

Wenger was no longer the man to help them get success and top 4 finishes because the landscape in the PL had changed so much and he didn't change with it. He also had way too much influence and control - hence the poor contract strategies with players being allowed to run them down or hold the club ransom.

However. He was a band aid and was at least still able to give them good days and they were always relatively consistent against the lower league. They also played decent football. With him gone a lot of the deep rooted problems have been allowed to manifest and the new guy is completely unable to control it.

The more I thi k about it, the more I feel bad for Emery. He's a decent coach, not spectacular and not someone who'd have them fighting for titles but he knows what he's doing. The problem is he had multiple board members above him with different agendas, players on ridiculous contracts making demands, players being signed and his preferences being discarded (he didn't want Pepe, he wanted Zaha). If he had the structure in place he'd have Arsenal in the top 6 still, not challenging the title but still in and around.

They'd still want him fired though cause they are self entitled princesses

Yep. He took six months off, took over at Villareal and has them third in the league now. He might not have been the right guy for the Arsenal job but the problems run a lot deeper.

The FA Cup win bought Arteta some time. The europa league form is keeping him in the job.

That said, ‘trophy, despite shit season’ is what they seem to do. ****s.

 

[ardiles]

Amazing stat I just heard. They have scored less than newcastle this season.

DCL has scored more PL goals for Everton than the arsenal team this season

 

[spursfan77]

Aouar, and I think he wanted them both as they are completely different players.

I was amazed they could afford one of them.

 

[olliec]

Would us winning the PL while they get relegated top their winning the PL at WHL?

White Yardie wants Wenger back :

 

[mark87]

Since the start of October, Arsenal have had more foul throws (5) than they have premier league goals (4).

 

[Dillspur]

Artea is AVB without Bale

 

[ernie78]

White Yardie wants Wenger back :

Sit up you slouch!

 

[King of Otters]

I wonder who they'd get in if they sacked him (which I don't think they will for a while yet)?

Poch is off the table. Allegri maybe?

 

[mark87]

I genuinely wouldn't be shocked if Wenger came back.

 

[Gb160]

I genuinely wouldn't be shocked if Wenger came back.

I'd love this just to see the reaction from that turdboy DT...he'd probably combust.
It would probably be the end of Claud also.

White Yardie wants Wenger back :

What accent is that white Yardi has?

He also can’t pronounce Wenger’s name properly, even after Robbie has said it clearly several times.
