Apparently Edu has tripled his wages by going to work for the Greek guy.

Hopefully we can now get in someone who prioritises doing their job in the Summer instead of going Motor-Skiing
I was wondering how long it would take someone (dont mean you onebard) to start off the narrative that poor arteta is not to blame for the transfer fcuk ups and edu would be thrown under the bus

This could be the making of a really good thing, as Edu didn’t really seem to be all that good, or the start of an internal crumbling.
It’s been mentioned on here before that the squad doesn’t seem quite happy; I wonder if there’s a lot of discontent behind the scenes.

I know rumours are rumours and seldom true but tbh that bit in red has a ring of possible truth to it I think. But not necessarily they fell out over a striker. I think Arteta never wanted to sign an out and out common as muck top striker because his daft ego told him he was redesigning how the game will be played and he didn't need a striker. But I reckon they might have fallen out over a signing. A clash of entitled egos perhaps? Now it might suit Arteta or someone at Arsenal to imply it was because we didn't sign a striker, giving Arteta an out from his cataclysmic mistake, without him losing face.OneBardGooner wrote: ↑Mon Nov 04, 2024 2:39 pmRumours now abound...

Edu is just a slimer gazidis jumping ship before it goes down or the full extent of the incompetence is laid bare.
Arteta the ego will be given full reign and just like wenger appointing gazidis?, arteta will appoint his own boss and not have any accountability at all.
That club will never ever learn…..doomed to repeat one of the easiest football history lessons of all time

I can’t wait for them to announce that Wenger has taken over Edu’s role, and that we won’t be spending anything more than £20m each summer.

Edu: “This was an incredibly hard decision to make. I’ve loved working with so many great colleagues across our men’s, women’s and academy teams, especially Mikel, who has become a great friend. Now it is time to pursue a different challenge. Arsenal will always remain in my heart. I wish the club and its supporters only good things and all the very best.”

Re: KROENKE OUT / The Board / Staff etc (merged thread)
I know mate, but it would appear that as soon as the Summer window closed, there was a major falling-out between Edu and Arteta as he (Edu) didn't follow up on other players during the window and so they went elsewhere.DB10GOONER wrote: ↑Mon Nov 04, 2024 5:39 pmI know rumours are rumours and seldom true but tbh that bit in red has a ring of possible truth to it I think.

I guess we won't ever know the Full Story, but they have been at Loggerheads since the Summer.
I am just hopeful that they will get someone in who can do a Proper Job and source the players we Need. The guy who does the buying for BHA might be a good choice, if we can get him? WTFK????

You are Joking mate! I mean You ARE just messing with us?
Re: KROENKE OUT / The Board / Staff etc (merged thread)
I’m not no, I gave up 2 family generational season tickets 3 years before wonga left, I was calling for his head 7 years before that. That man is a cancer that Arsenal FC managed to rid themselves of. If he ever returns I’d be done.OneBardGooner wrote: ↑Mon Nov 04, 2024 7:23 pmxgtdec wrote: ↑Mon Nov 04, 2024 7:16 pmDon’t even joke about that, I’d be getting tattoos removed if they ever did thatArsenal Till I Die wrote: ↑Mon Nov 04, 2024 6:46 pmI can’t wait for them to announce that Wenger has taken over Edu’s role, and that we won’t be spending anything more than £20m each summer.![]()

I am 1,000% With You re: Wonga... The first 10 years Were Great... But as we All know due to his Over-sized Ego and Despotic Control Over Everything at the Club he nearly Fucking Destroyed us... We still haven't fully emerged and recovered from that. Which is why? I think Arteta (regardless of his flaws etc) Has done an amazing job to re-unite the Fan Base who let's be honest were at each others throats... they were either TOF OUT! or thought he was a Demi-God

Anyway... If WengerTheCluelessCUNT Ever returned I too would walk away. When he came to a few games last season and I saw the camera's zoom in on him I wanted to put my Foot through the screen!
in other words: Fuck-OFF Wenger you ****! And Never Darken Our Doorstep again!

Is there anyone on the Chavs staff who is out of contract in the next few weeks because we'll have them in to replace Edu by the end of the week? That or someone who wants to get out of Cheaty before the sanctions hit.

Re: KROENKE OUT / The Board / Staff etc (merged thread)
In a more worrying development, I've just read something that has linked that lanky, back-turning, one-decent game ever, cowardly German, Mertesacker with the role. He's already involved with the youth set-up at the club and fits the dying days of Wanker ethos that the club seems hell-bent on recreating.
