As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
A great article for highlighting the double standards and short memories though. All the gems are in there:
"In its simplest sense Arteta is struggling because he hasn't got good enough players" (where as the previous manager inherited a real bunch of gems from Wenger of course)
His magic appears in the regular one-on-one conversations he has with all the first-team players, who have never been briefed so often by a manager (and you can see that they really are going out playing with freedom and passion as a result can't you?)
The youth players who have made their debuts in the first team have been impressed by the emphasis on detail in training (aaah yes, the brilliant training. Shame most of those players won't see the first team squad again until next year's Europa League)
But one thing is very clear: the squad believe in what is being proposed and now (yep - its there for all of us to see just how much belief they all have)
"Long term" is the key part of all of this. If Arteta is to succeed at the Emirates then the Arsenal fans must accept it is going to take time. (yep, give him as long as he needs.....3 years, 5 years, why not 10? I mean we all accepted it would take at least that after Wenger was sacked didn't we?"
I wonder how much the club are paying arseholes like this to sprout such utter ***** to support their vested interest and gormless decision making
I tried to read that article but as I'm from the twitter generation anything over 4 lines and I lose the will to live so I tapped out
The main points are that Arteta is a genius, he knows everything there is to know, the players are shit apart from a few, we are all impatient peasants who know nothing and Edu comes to work and then goes home at the end of the day. Apparently, everything will be fine.

There was a time (when la liga and barca started to become really popular) that balague's standing and creditibility was quite high - these days I dont know of any football fan who pays any attention to anything he says, and he seems like a guy trying desperately to keep himself in the public eye
It is for that reason that I wouldnt get bent out of shape about anything he say's - nobody rates him
That article has won me over, we must keep faith in Arteta!
Our next win is surely on the horizon, it will be the stepping stone to the longest unbeaten run in the clubs history, a proper unbeaten run ( not a jammie run like emerys)
By 2022, Arteta will be recognised by all as the genius Edu already knows he is.
Following his knighthood for services to football, he will be canonised to become a living saint.
Bastards like Stevo and Augie will fall to their knees and beg forgiveness at the feet of the colossal Arteta statues which will surround the stadium.
Just you wait and see
In Mikel we trust!

Superb. From here on Perry shall provide me with a synopses of any post or article over 140 characters. That is all.

I read about half before I fell asleep. Has he turned into an influencer now?

By 2023, I'll be like the fawning pups in my profile pic, but this time holding a picture of the Spanish Milk Tray Man
Am I being a touch cynical in thinking that article is just one Spaniard talking up another Spaniard?
Not at all mate, it is part of the PR machine that has clicked into action, as the club sneakily try to convince the unconscious goobers amongst the throng that Arteta is the right man for the job.
Whether he is or not we shall discover by the end of the season, but one thing is for sure, the club are loathe to sack him as that will cost money, they cannot or rather they Refuse to spend the kind of money to get in a Top Quality manager who can do the job and lead us to success. The kind of manager a club of our size is entitled to, with KroenkeWiggyCunto & Cunto Jnr it is ALL about Money - Not Success.
I just hope their private Jet Crashes ands wiggy's wife then sells the club to someone who will invest their money, time and passion.
Loving these latest quotes from pep's waterboy in relation to martinelli's return -
"He tries and goes and goes again and he wants to score a goal.
“He’s ruthless in training in every single action and the more players and staff you have to add that, at the end that gets translated to what happens on the football pitch and over time you will be stable."
Once upon a time our ambotion was to win leagues. Then wenger and kroenke merged and finishing 4th was our ambition. Now this clown comes along and our ambition is to be STABLE ?? Fcuk off
“Now he needs time. He’s done it for a period of time and in certain moments throughout a game, but consistently for three years, two or one?
There it is - paving the way for his defence of leaving him out and going with older and more experienced players
Remember that period when Mourinho went from consistently sniping at Wenger, to saying what a remarkable job he had done - think it coincided with about the 12th time he hadn't beaten him and seven years or so without a trophy.
I see he has had his third dig at Klopp in a week, saying he didn't deserve to win this 'world coach' award, on top of all the snipes before and after the recent match.
By contrast of course after they'd tickled our yellow bellies the other week, he praised Arteta and said Arsenal would definitely be successful under him
Wonder why that might be..............if we'd beaten them 1-0 to go top of the league, I wonder if he'd have openly lavised praise on Mr Please Everyone Like Me

Old whiskey nose used to do that (not just to us either) and it really used to pish me off big time cos the media w.ankers bought into this "isnt he a good guy" narrative The man was a patronising w.anker just like this arrogant portugese c.unt is
