Mikel Arteta | Lego Pep watch

He might look at this season as an improvement, but he failed big time imo. He won't get a better shot at top 4 for a while.
He needs United and Spurs to have another bad season (can't say Spurs have had it that bad). In addition he'll have to juggle 2 games a week, it will be vital for him to get his signings right.
 
I think hes sick. They should give him a 5 year contract extension and give him £300m to spend. I can really see what he’s building there. They showed quality, gameplan, desire, fight, flew into 50/50s, just unlucky tonight.
 
Give it one more season without Champions League and Saka will be making his push for a move to City.
 
So happy he's lost it this way, he's an absolute cnut. Let's see if he finds a way to blame the refs today.
 
Emery actually got better results, yet everyone hated him.
Arteta mostly gets a free pass while being bad/mediocre.
 
He won't. Arsenal have just accepted that they're destined to be a 5-7th place club long term. They've given up

I think their fans will get restless early next year. Them choking late on to giftwrap Spurs of all teams the spot isn't a good look for Arteta aswell.

He was very lucky for much of his first 18 months it was BCD given some of the terrible results he was serving up.
 
Ouch, they're ripping into him at NBC, saying that at no point did he do anything to change the game.
 
Apparently he's only lost one less than Klopp despite being in the job four years less.

What does this guy have over people?
 
Their squad just isn’t good enough and Arteta has taken them to their limit.
 
So fellow gooners, tell me more about this process.

A club with any sort of ambition would have this guy sacked by the morning.

Aubameyang carrying them to an FA Cup won him a lot of good will. Ironic that the good will never extended to the player himself.
 
Arteta is an overrated manager. How this guy has a following is just ridiculous but long may it continue. He gets such an easy ride in that he should be sacked but instead he gets a new contract. It’s brilliant.
 
Well Arsenal's boom-bust season is going to be terrific viewing on the Amazon documentary!

So many gooners defending him on twitter. It's baffling, what do people see in him. We're fecked.
 
So at best he’ll manage a fecking miserable 69 points.
And some (including ballbag) were trying to convince the World he’s done a top job.
Emery managed 70 points in his final season :lol:

Actually annoys me seeing Arsenal act like such a nothing club, sack the fecking loser already.
 
My dad's an Arsenal supporter and it used to be fun slagging him off when they lost but nowadays his sad little dissapointed old man face just makes me feel bad. :(

Useless pricks couldn't deliver even a one-off season back in the CL.

We have players with quality, technique, pace a vision up front. Under arteta they look like headless chickens most of the time. A good manager would have us create chances against teams like this newcastle.

The squad isn't good enough is just a cop out for arteta fans.
 
I genuinely don't know what Arsenal or their fans see in him.
It would make a lot more sense if it was Vieira doing this, attachment to the club legend and all that but Arteta was an alright player in the peak Wenger banter years.

It's so so odd. It's would be like Christensen coming back to manage us in ten years.
 
Nonsense.

It's an average squad for where they are in the league.

Partey and Tierney injuries hurt them massively given Eleney does his best but is very average and Tavares is a joke.

Holding back up CB and imploded v a world class forward last week.

Pepe and Lacazette both leaving and those were their apparent game turning options off the bench.

Rest of bench was just kids.

He did say squad rather than first 11. If you think Rob Holding, Cedric, Taveres, Elneny, Pepe and Lacazette are all brilliant with pace, technique and quality then fair enough.

They insist he's their club legend, even though he was better for Everton imo.
 
Hope he doesn't say what he wants to say otherwise it's a 6 month ban :lol:

If he does, he should just blurt out what he wanted to say after the Spurs game and get suspended for the whole of next season. Might work out well for Arsenal.
