As soon as arteta came in guendouzi was dropped to the subs bench ......... behind these c.unts - people question his attitude but if he wasnt pissed as hell to be behind these c.unts, then I would question his heart. Himself AND torreira are a million miles better than xhaka, ceballos and elneny, and yet they were not wanted by this gormless pr*ck :roll: :evil:

Arteta is out of his depth. Look at what Mourino has done to that shower of shit down the road. Signed Doughty, the fella from Southampton and the boy from Swansea and they thrash Utd away beat city at home and get a point away to the chavs.
Having Kane and Son helps. Those 2 have turned a bang average team into a dangerous one. The rest of the team is fairly ordinary.

Although you could argue that Aubamayang has been as good if not better than Kane for past 2 seasons.

Big questions will be asked about the manager, as they should, but given the personnel I don't see what we can even do. Attack wise with Aubameyang totally out of form we have no goalscorers in the whole squad and on top of that not one creator in the team either to even make chances. That's probably why Arteta has been playing so defensive and hoping to nick one goal because when we actually try to attack we still can't score but end up conceding far more. We have to win next week but that seems impossible right now.



No offence buddy but that is a cop out - we have players a lot better than what they are showing under this clown. He doesnt know what system to play, clearly cannot coach them on how to take a corner ffs, and seems totally incapable of motivating or organising them. No half decent manager would tolerate looking at auba and xhaka strolling around like they didnt give a fcuk. No half decent manager would allow their right back to continually flow forward and allow us to get raped with balls in behind him

Without doubt - if those two are out for any period of time, those c.unts will be alongside us in mid-table :roll: Cant understand the wankfest over them tbh

Exactly apart from Son and Kane bang average team but top manager that’s the difference. Look at his after match interview they are top of the league but after the match in the dressing room they were pissed off because they didn’t win at the chavs.

And that much is defnitely true. However, what he didn't do is say - we've already got some really good forwards.....lets go and buy even more!

What he did was pick up players to come into the positions where they were weak.

We've got 9 first team centre halves, not including Kolasinac, Xhaka and Tierney who have all played there under this manager.......12 options for 2 or 3 starting positions.

Whilst its still unclear who is responsible for each and every signing the club makes, the manager has an influence......and any manager worth his salt would have been banging the door down of the owner/CEO, saying to get rid of 3 centre halves and sign an attacking midfielder.....even if on loan

You'd think we were playing with Duncan Ferguson up front the way we were (attempting) to whip balls into the box time after time, only to have them cleared by Wolves defence. Auba not exactly going to win many headers there, but we persist. :banghead:

Yes bang on!

Our game plan is definitely aimed at getting wide and crossing the ball in for the big man! Giroud would love it.... Auba and Laca, not so much :lol:

If we’re going to stick with this game plan, we need a new striker in January who is good in the air!

the players don’t match the style of play, and that’s why we look lost and impotent.

Arteta should definitely do better and there are players not at their top level but which attackers can we play to make us a decent attacking force? Willian is useless and should never have been signed, Lacazette is at least two seasons past his prime, Pepe is too inconsistent and when he was given a chance got himself sent off, Saka is a good talent but doesn't score, he missed great chances both last week and today and the rest are unproven. On top of that the midfield does nothing, having Partey out hasn't helped as he looked strong against United and levels above our other options. Just don't see where this is going to turn around in the short term and I don't even think many other managers would do much better with this squad. I'm just hoping Martinelli comes back and gets straight in the team and we sign a creator in January because it's looking grim otherwise.

Our November league goal of the month consists of one penalty and a header.I would like to think Martinelli coming back would make a difference along with a few try outs for Balogun and SmithRowe but I don't trust Arteta to play them as long as he has his failing favourites on the pitch.Arteta gets praise from the players but it may be that he is a good coach but a crap manager.Its happened before when coaches have stepped up to become managers and not made it and it looks like it's happening again.
