Mikel Arteta | Lego Pep watch
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
I believe Ronaldo's case has been dismissed? I actually didn't want to sign him and don't want him to be at the club because of it anyway. Doesn't mean it's fine for Arsenal to turn a blind eye to the situation with Partey.
I think if an employee of a company has multiple rape accusations levelled at them, they should probably be sidelined while things are clarified, at the very least.
It's such a weird one as I've heard few arsenal supporters in real life claim the same thing.
So in their eyes it's all good and clean, she making it up as they need him on the pitch basically so that's the important part.
I'm amazed he still playing considering the length of accusation she fired out online. It will rear it's heads again this season. Will more and likely throw a spanner into your season.
Mikel needs 2-3 more players to complete the squad. Rafinha seems to be a big miss considering that Pepe is close to joining Nice. Also it's a known fact that we need a proper backup/replacement of Thomas Partey. Sambi and El nenny looks a step down at the moment. Good to see Arteta and Edu niche picking the players rather than just filling the squad numbers.
Nah, sincere. Many people disregarded me back then, but I m not surprise I was right.I can never tell if you’re being sincere or trolling
Edit: Though I kind of agree that Arteta was treated harshly on this place, and a lot of the takes in this thread were bad
I understand that temptation, I also struggle to not suck my own dick
He wouldn't do that, he's saving himself for Pochettino.
Not about that, just getting credit for something I called. But it seems many people didn't want to or just choose to forget because they were wrong
Feel free to quote where I’ve said that. You’ll struggle though, because I haven’t. In fact, I’ve repeatedly said the opposite.
This isn’t really a subject I want to discuss in bad faith. I’m usually more than up for a bit if back and forth, but I feel this matter is too serious for straw man arguments.
Why would it though when the case was dropped by the MET? He literally doesn't have a case to answer. It's not like evidence becomes stronger as time passes after an event.
Arteta is shit, Arsenal are shit. They will win nothing. Might scrape top 4 this year though.
It’s the way it was dropped. He seems to have gotten off on a technicality from 1 accusation in 3 because of a change of law in the meantime
Congratulations on Arsenal winning the league.
Oh there’s another 33 league games? Then why are all the Arsenal fans creaming themselves?

Young hungry squad, playing some great football and solid defensively. They look by far the best team in the league so far. You can say easy opponents but other big teams have struggled against said easy opponents. He’s lowered the wage bill all the whilst doing this. Credit where it’s due to Arteta.
Not sure anyone is thinking we are winning the league, or getting anywhere near doing so.
We are happy because we are winning and the team are performing well. Like most fans. And we are disappointed / angry when we don't. Again, like most fans.
3 games. Liverpool are down near the relegation zone at this point, let's extrapolate that out over the season shall we? Also City are way better than Arsenal, they will demolish them.
The celebration police are out in force. How dare fans of a club be happy when said club is winning all their matches? Insanity.
The absolute desperation in the UK media to praise Arteta's revolution at Arsenal is hilarious, it's been there since he came to the job and persisted even when they were absolutely shite.
They've had a good start but so have they countless times and seen their season go to shit, it's just funny how it's manifested in feverish praise on almost every outlet. Suspect it's just the work of a lot of London-based secret Arsenal fans.

Nothing wrong about celebrating, its just celebrating being ahead in a marathon after 200 meters, its good to have a good start but its still a long way to go.
What technicality? If it’s the one where UK police can’t touch him, surely Spanish police can seeing as the alleged incident happened there? Why haven’t they done anything, if it is indeed outside of the UK’s jurisdiction?
Or can you Brits really commit a crime in Spain, run back home and be exempt from any consequences because of this technicality?
Yeah but the whole "oh arsenal fans think they can be champions because they beat 3 mid-table teams" is a bit of a strawman. Sure you'll find the odd overly optimistic fan, but just read this thread, no arsenal fans are making such claims. We're just happy because last season after 3 matches we were being mercilessly mocked and this year we're top of the table.
Almost up there with the desperation of people who refuse to give him any credit.
Nothing wrong in being happy your team is doing well.
@GoonerBear and the rest of the you have been pretty level headed to be fair. Arteta and the back room staff have done a great job in overhauling the squad and there’s plenty of room for optimism, at least in the sense of posters on here they’ve been very grounded and have dealt with the posts every summer about Arteta being a fraud and the inevitable meltdown that would come. Big season for them
It’s shaping up to be a really interesting season when it comes to the top 4. ETH has only just arrived and hasn’t had time to build a team, but he showed yesterday that he’s someone who can impose his style quickly and isn’t afraid to make big calls. I don’t think they’ll get top 4 this season, but he’s a very talented manager and a couple more signings and they’re going to be a very interesting team this season. Really looking forward to watching him and United over the next few years.
Chelsea are spending big and adding to an already talented squad, Tuchel is a great manager and while I think the squad is a little unbalanced in areas, if they get their remaining transfer targets they’ll look very strong.
Tottenham have done some really good work this window and in January, and having a duo like Kane and Son is such a boon. Conte is also a great manager and while he’s not been there long he knows the league and he’s had a big hand in who they’ve bought in, he’s integrated them well too. I think they’ll just miss out on top 4 but I wouldn’t be surprised in the slightest if they get it either.
Liverpool could do with freshening up their midfield, looks far more pedestrian and workmanlike when Thiago is out. They’ll have to integrate Nunez quickly as well, but despite their poor start to the season they’re still a great team with a world class manager.
City are City, Pep is Pep. I think they’ll still need a bit of time to fully adapt to Halaand and he to them, but they’re a very strong side.
The managerial talent at the moment is something special

He deserves some credit of course but to be held up as a paragon of how to fix a club is ridiculous, since they still haven't achieved anything.
No I agree, there's still steps to go.
But it's pretty clear there's a big chance from when he came in, to now. And that's in every department. The wage structure, the recruitment, the style of play, the age of the squad, the relationship with the fans, the squad harmony. Everything.
The next step of course is to win trophies and to get into the CL regularly.
Arsenal is under FFP watch list due to heavy loss for the past 3 years. Edu will have a hard time to bring in a midfielder and a winger on a tight budget.
What are the other ways to fix a club ?
It is a long season. Just enjoy the football and see where it leads at the end. Hopefully the team can win the 4th place trophy. We shall see. There will be lots of up and down as usual.
Have I missed 2 games
Lowered the wage bill whilst also spending more than any other club in the league?
Is there anything more embarrassing than cussing someone and getting something so basic so wrong

To be fair, he was the only one that noticed!
Wow, Utd fans are bullish again all of a sudden. Welcome back.
Personally I haven't seen an Arsenal fan who thinks we are going to win the league, as we clearly are not. Sorry that we are happy for winning our games. Arteta takes a hammering on here from most, but I saw a stat that over the past 38 games we have collected 27 points more than the biggest club in the world, so he is doing something right.
Long way to go.

Hardly a surprise. Arteta OUT!
Most probably because that performance/result against Liverpool was better than anything we've seen from Arsenal this season. If, and I agree to it being a big IF.. if we keep to that level of performance for the rest of the season we'll absolutely be in the fight for the top four.
People talk about Arsenal getting carried away, and then you mention that.
You were absolutely awful in your first two games, and yes you did very well against a half cooked Liverpool, but there is absolutely no indication you'll keep that up for the rest of the season.
You can only beat what is ahead of you though, and it's very early so let's see how it pans out...
Yes, we were pathetic in our opening two games.. no denying that but the Liverpool game, the players have set the standard going forward now. Anything less than that and they’ll rightly come in for criticism. You mention the fact Liverpool we’re half cooked but I could counter that with you beating nothing but mid table, relegation fodder.. the real test will come when the European campaign begins.
