The latter Wenger years of players like Ozil and Ramsey strolling around completely uninterested in their defensive responsibilities yet being trotted out there game after game are something I don't recall with any fondness.
I'd guess maybe he doesn't fit the work ethic or the tempo Arteta wants. Then there's the China/muslim business which he spoke out about, I don't know much about it but I don't think the club were too pleased, losing live games and revenue from it.
