Danny Posted August 4, 2022 Share Posted August 4, 2022 Are we just ignoring that he had a picture of a pack of wolves lined up on a screen with two Arsenal flags on them? Strange methods but fair play the Arsenal team clearly play for him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 I'm watching the All or Nothing documentary and tbh I think Arteta has come out of it quite well, especially with Aubamenyang. Clearly there was more to it than just arriving late back from (France?), but you could tell his character when he tried to force the move by arriving in Barcelona without permission. Been paying attention to Arsenal and the transfer policy quite closely the past couple of years and it's improve drastically from the window they brought Odegaard on loan, you can tell they are building a squad and a culture that will keep them close to the top 4 and in it rather than away from it. There maybe a day where the club feel Arteta can't take them forward any further but it's certainly not coming yet, the players really seem to buy into him.

There maybe a day where the club feel Arteta can't take them forward any further but it's certainly not coming yet, the players really seem to buy into him. They do seem to be on an upward trajectory now, and it revolves getting their recruitment done properly. Although Ramsdale had his errors on Saturday, he seems to have sorted himself out properly. Their defence appears solid now that they've given Saliba a chance to partner Gabriel. If Tomiyasu and Tierney can stay fit, they have good full-backs, with Zinchenko able to deputise. Midfield will probably get worked on next (Tielemans?) but the attacking players they have are really exciting - Saka, Martinelli, Odegaard, Jesus, Smith-Rowe. Vieira is a talent I'm looking forward to seeing how he adjusts to PL football. Not seen anything of Marquinhos but at 19 he must have potential if Arsenal have got him? They seem to have a structure to their recruitment and actually signing players they've needed, as opposed to just for the sake of it. Jesus could turn out to be one of the signings of the season. Getting back into the top 4 I imagine is the aim for Arteta. Wouldn't surprise me if they won FA Cup again or League Cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being proud of your academy isn't for every club though... It is regularly outperformed by clubs with significantly smaller budgets and population. The latest England squad had the same amount of academy alumni from Arsenal as it did Hereford United. Seven players from Chelsea (wtf). Three from Sheffield, two from Man City, they were the only teams with more than one it seems. Edited September 14, 2022 by Spike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’s pride and then there’s half pretending you’re Ajax because you’ve produced a couple mid Prem quality players But also not every club has the luxury of spending 100s of millions to sit in the Europa League.

However the club stuck by him and a lot of clubs would have sacked him. Also the pressure of managing Barcelona would be much greater than at arsenal. He wouldn't be given much time.
