Plays out. I hope he brings Xabi Alonso with him. It will be nice to have two fine looking chaps standing on the sidelines. It’s all going to be very different next season. Probably a new CB pairing and keeper, Ramsey probably won’t be here either. Exciting.
Ramsey has probably been our best player in recent weeks/months. A shame to see him leave, imho.
Still, I think Maitland Niles can become a great player in the same position so it's not all bad. It seems the new manager will be working with a very small transfer budget so selling Ramsey may help a lot.
At this rate we might as well get Sean Dyche imo
Can’t do much worse...oh yes we can..let’s get a no2 freshie with zero experience and a bad hair cut imo
His wife is preeeeety tasty though. I’ll give him that.
I'm really trying to reconcile my differences with the appointment. It seems we have changed the model and we're going down the route of a head coach to coach the players and set them up, a head of recruitment to sign players they feel will benefit the team, a director of football to manage football related operations, a CEO to manage the business side and a head of youth development to manage the kids.
It could work and I accept that Allegri/Enrique wouldn't fit into this system - they're both managers that want to make decisions on transfers etc.
Despite this, it really doesn't matter that Arteta knows Pep's tactics. We don't have nigh on £1billion worth of footballer to execute it. Pep might let Arteta pinch some of his rejects, though. If they sign Neymar we might get Sane
