    Ah, the wake up call. Yeah, I'm not sure that really works here. Certainly didn't at half time.

    He needs to fill the players with confidence that they can do this. I'm not sure how you do that when you coach tactics of cautuon and control. That breeds fear, not confidence.

    I think that it's his modus operandi because of the lack of talent in the forward line at the club. He is on record as saying that he wants a side where two or three players can contribute 20 goals a season. Right now I'd be shocked if one of our players managed 10.

    However - important to realize that this was a necessity. It's cheaper to do a full rebuild from the back forwards since defenders are more abundant and therefore cheaper in the most part. Now comes the challenge of adding certainly a left forward, certainly a central forward and likely a right forward - won't be cheap but that's why we pay Berta.

    Oliver Holt has a good piece in the Daily Mail whcih I agree with.... The likes of Rice & Gabriel are not really the types to shrink away from an opportunity to win big.

    The trouble with that argument is you are talking about Saka, Martinelli, Trossard, Havertz. There is a reason why I i think they can contribute close to 20 goals each. And I think you know what that reason is.

    Arteta needs to ask himself why the stronger our squad gets, the fewer goals we score.

    Last season killed Odegaard and Martinelli. This season Saka is really suffering. Why?

    Yeah. Another player that gets knobbed off. He folds like a deck chair when a game is screaming for someone to step up. Spanish Mummy's boy.

    I've said it before but this team NEEDS to win the league. I think if they win one, we can win 2 or 3 on the bounce. They just need to know they can actually do it and then I think the "handbrake" will come off.

    And if we're honest, leading the league by 4 points with Trossard Gyokeres and Saka as our best front 3 is an achievement.

    Trossard is more useful than good, Gyokeres is still settling and Saka has been poor, certainly relative to his reputation and salary.

    Maybe that's just who we are this season. Great at the back, capable of controlling a game from midfield but not all that up front.

    It is really an achievement? Or is it just that everyone else is ****?

    I think most of us would accept that we were ****e last season and hugely underperformed, trailing Liverpool all season.

    Do you know how many points we had at this stage last seaĺson? 47. We'd still be top this season.

    We are just 3 points better than ****e.....

    Time to stop believing our own hype and admit that we have problems. And if we dont address them, we are winning **** all.

    Either way, I dont want to keep on watching this ****.

    I think the handbrake needs to come off first.
