Mikel Arteta | Lego Pep watch

It won’t be long until he goes full Keegan. How can the squad keep calm during a title race when he’s going absolutely ape shit before the halfway point?

Is this a new thing, managers only go ape shit the last 6 games of the season or something?
 
People genuinely think Arsenal fans will care about anything other than that Arteta has taken us to the top of the league playing great football and changed the entire atmosphere of the club.
It just doesn’t make the news when Arteta is running up the line in midtable.

So true. Non Arsenal fans also think this is 'pressure' getting to Arteta, when he is simply a high intensity manager and kicks every ball with the team. There is also the saying his antics will flow through to the team, well then good. Urgency and high intensity is how we want to play. Pressing high up the pitch and hurrying opposition defenders has served us well so far, how would Arteta standing still on the sideline watching a passive performance improve Arsenal?

We all were frustrated with the passive Wenger Aura at the sidelines. This is actually refreshing for us. Would rather a manger goes overboard then the other way.

Also its not like he has started this recently and also its not like he is the only one doing it but because others are more established managers they don't get this coverage.
 
Look
If you had
One shot
Or one opportunity
To seize everything you ever wanted
In one moment
Would you capture it
Or just let it slip?
Yo
His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy
There's Arsenal on his sweater already, Martenelli...
 
You think you're so cool with that 90's insurance agent hairstyle huh?
You think you're so cool just because you speak Spanish huh?
Too bad you don't wear a 3 metres long jacket.
Too bad you'll never be rad.
 
So, he's just allowed to do literally anything he wants on touchline? And no refs in the country have the balls to say anything?

Just came here to post this. He was on the pitch at one point.
 
He just hasn’t been told that little box is for him
 
Hate Arteta, he is a petulant Guardiola wannabe who loves waving imaginary cards. The bloke is an utter dislikable idiot
 
Referee need to start telling him to get back to his box. Every game he thinks he is a player. Annoying.
 
fecking wanker. Hope we beat them today - and I think I'd rather see City win the title this year mainly due to him.
 
Thoroughly annoying human. I am pretty sure most Arse fans dislike him, and it will be funny to watch his meltdown if Gunners squander their chance this season.
 
An absolute arsewipe but can’t fault the job he’s doing.
 
Can’t wait for him to lose a couple of games and be public enemy number one with that bunch of moronic twats.
 
Well… looks like the real deal. Can always gauge this by how much he is hated here. If you’re irrelevant nobody cares. We care now :nervous:
 
You really just have to commend the job he’s doing this season. He was taking flak from all sides the last few years, it’s only fair that he also gets his due credit for how well coached this Arsenal team is. Whether they win the title from here or not, he’s done an incredible job with this team.

I give the most credit to Josh for his patience and beliefs in Arteta. In other clubs Arteta may have fired for a long time.

That’s a different conversation all together though. Josh Kroenke isn’t the one coaching this team to this level.

Man for man, Manchester City are comfortably better and they are on par with Chelsea, United and Liverpool squad wise yet comfortably top.
 
He’s got them playing some absolutely fantastic football.. doesn’t change the fact that the guy is a massive cnut.

Yes but he is the one backing him financially for this project. Without the right players the result won't come no matter how “good" Arteta is.
 
Never even finished in the top 4 but has them challenging this season…strange one but they’ve been good and deserve to be top.
 
Just came here to post this. He was on the pitch at one point.

When Bruno was running with 2 Arsenal players chasing, Arteta almost was on the pitch to close down Bruno's left. Absolutely spineless from the FA to not do anything about this guy repeatedly doing this.
 
Be interesting to see what happens if he does win the PL. Could see him lured away to Barca or someone like that.

At any other top club he'd have been sacked long ago, so fair play to the Arsenal board for accepting mediocrity for a few seasons. It was fun watching them loitering around mid table for a while.
