Wenger Outers. Will you still be glad he's gone if we get Arteta?

One of the best things Arsene managed to do was mess with the head of a certain type of individual. It's amazing to me that the genial Frenchman was able to drive the less cerebrally blessed to the verge of requiring therapy just be doing his job incredibly well.

Ah, but you see, more active and progressive types are less inclined towards maintaining the status quo. One needs occasionally to challenge the accepted wisdom, especially when it’s predicated on the basis of, well, ‘thats how we’ve always done things around here ‘ This isn’t some type of knee jerk fandom but a recognition for change.. One of the reasons why women walk out on a marriage after 15 years, leaving some poor disillusioned soul into wondering why 😀

Oddly, I thought of exactly this prallel the other week. I remember my wife telling me bitterly that I had reduced us to a statistic... And The Arsenal is now just the same as any other shoddy outfit, a West Ham or Everton, having relegated Arsene to just a statistic. Just another managerial caualty. Just another (once great) football club.

Genuine question.

I'm not trying to start a fight or prove a point.

If this had been 3/4 years ago and we were getting Klopp, fine, Cheerio AW.

But Arteta?

I'd have kept AW for one more year on the condition he used a defensive coach (as he apparently used Keown in 2004).

This team isn't that far away. Yup, more by luck than judgement (Auba and Laca complementing each other, swapping Alexis for Mhikky etc). So maybe Arteta will do.

Two wrongs don't make a right. Getting Arteta in because we are in too weak a position now to attract one of the elite managers does not vindicate keeping Wenger on any longer. This team is light years away - goalkeeper, the entire defence and the defensive midfield options are not even close to good enough.

Lol. You got what you fůcking wanted and still you whine. Worse than my 3 yr old.

What a well balanced and thought through comment, w.

Welcome, you're obviously a massive ****, so you'll fit right in here

[Sir C]

This is quality work, w, especially given the earliness of the hour.

Welcome aboard, W.

Both Nelson Vivas and Giovanni Van Bronkhorst have far more managerial experience than Arteta.

I would finish that with an imo but it’s the cold hard indisputable fact.

Nelson would be interesting given the huge success of ex Argentinan players from that time period in European management.

Incredible gamble from Ivan given someone like Ancellotti didn’t even get a look.

I should just mention Vieira who seems a bit upset...I could never tell with him. Down the years he’s always been one to say one thing to the press, say something else to us and do something completely different in the pitch so it’s probably bs that he’s upset.
