    Seems to be a lot of discussion around Arteta's future

    Will sound odd to those outside the club but I think it is fair enough.

    This football is insufferable and has been for two years. The only justification would have been winning the title, and that is looking pretty unlikely.

    Fairly sure he has credit in the bank with the owners. We?re not known for knee jerk hiring and firing, so he?s probably safe. He?ll also escape the momentum of supporters wrath.
    The season will be over and thoughts will shift towards the World Cup. If the club make a couple of bold summer signings, it?ll buy him more time.
    The crowd will be the ultimate barometer, as always. They tend to be the catalyst for those on the board to begin shifting gears.
    I?d have him out but I?m of the view that after six seasons, things are unlikely to get significantly better.
    It?s like those companies who have peaked, then find themselves on the revenue downward slide as the market shifts. They then try to reinvent themselves in areas away from what was their core competency.
    It can occasionally works but in most cases it doesn?t.

    He is due a new contract this summer. Tough to hand that out if we've blown everything again, which is looking very likely.

    He has to change the way we play next season. Fans are not going to put up with this rubbish unless we are winning things.

    I've seen it a few times in the software sector. A top heavy old crew of golf addicts and chancers realising the jig is up and tries to act like a start-up. New image, couple of new slogans but the energy just isn't there.

    He can't change the way we play. If he could change the way we play, we wouldn't be playing this way.

    Of course he can. He changed the way we play to this rubbish. He can change it back.

    And if he cant, or doesn't want to, then he can leave.

    The contrast of how The Arsenal play against this rampant Man City team.

    Chalk and cheese.

    We're ****ed in the Premier league race. FACT!
    Other clubs never came into my thoughts once I knew Arsenal wanted to sign me.

    Certainly seems that way. Hard to see us turning it around from here

    It?s life, H. Arteta?s still young and would probably benefit from a new challenge. In time, he?ll get over the sleepless nights and that ringing in his ears from Arsenal fans calling him a useless git but, like Lampard, he?ll find his feet and catch a break at somewhere like Norwich.

    I think he should go to Spain. To Atletico to be precise. They'll be needing a new manager when we recruit Diego.
