Being an Arsenal fan at the moment is a bit like having a new sexual partner after

Absolutely. But the current assumption is that
different equals better. The thrill of the new.

His early substitutions are different to Wenger’s, but whether they are better can only be judged by our long term results. In that regard there’s plenty of cause for optimism, but it nonetheless feels a little premature to say anything more.

If Unai sticks around long enough and ultimately disappoints, we’ll start craving another manager who does things differently, maybe even one a bit more like Wenger

Not like your obsessed or anything Monty old bean.

Have you wondered recently why almost every post you make that is football related is about Wenger leaving and never about the current team, how well or poorly we played, what the new players are like etc etc?

I mean, you do still support Arsenal Football Club, don't you?

You'd probably find that my football related posts have gradually reduced over the years, certainly from before a time when I realised that my razor sharp technical and tactical analysis would be lost on you guys.

But seriously, yes, what an outrageous idea that someone whose affections for his club were strongly tied up with one dominant individual would allow their interest to dissipate once that individual was gone.

Soppy and sentimental, sure. But a big nosed cancer deserving ****? Feels a little harsh

I probably had as much of a hard on for Vieira as you did for Wenger but when we sold him I was glad because I could see the degradation in his play and it hurt me to watch it.

The same happened to me with Wenger from about 2010-2012 and by 2012 I came to the conclusion that for the good of the club and Wenger himself, he needed to go. Now each year post 2012 there was some point in the season when I found something that gave me hope that I was wrong and that he was about to turn it around. And every time I was wrong.

You just need to grow up a bit, Monty. Or address your mental health issues, there's loads of support about nowadays.
