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.

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. :lol:
Don’t even joke about that, I’d be getting tattoos removed if they ever did that
:shock: :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

You are Joking mate! I mean You ARE just messing with us?
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.
Oh! I Seee! Sorry I misunderstood.


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 :roll:

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! :high5: :box:
The fucking cultists are out in force again, stupid c.unts demanding that Lord Wonga should return in the role that he has earned. :cussing:

We'll never be rid of those fucking mongs, never :shock:

It would certainly be the last nail in the coffin for me if the nasty old fucker returned, I've only watched about 60 minutes of the last three games. It's not the losing, it's the nature of the performances this season that are really jarring, that and Diet Pep and his shit in game management :roll:

It's obvious what the issue is.
Arteta was hired as head coach, he's gone on to be 'manager' with a lot of input into signings etc.
A few months ago Arteta signs a new contract...... He's going to have asked for new and more significant power.
Edu now feels undermined and probably doesn't feel any 'higher,' than Arteta.
We are heading down the Wenger route of the manager being all powerful. Not a good move if I'm right.
It's not a big deal losing Edu, but it's a very big deal if we're making a new dictator at Arsenal because of a fear of losing him!!

For the record our academy has started producing some real potential quality again so maybe BFG isnt the problem some like to paint him ? Reality is that those young players are not seeing chances in the first team under cone boy and are fcuking off to pastures new - cant blame mertesacker for that

The sheep that adore the cone boy can throw edu under the bus now if they want, but the reality is that anyone who believes that jesus, zinchenko and sterling are not el basque signings are deluding themselves, Amazing how many of them are coming out now with stories of disharmony between edu and arteta - I have spent ages on here slating both of them and their transfer dealings and NOT ONE OF THEM suggested that edu was the problem or that there had been a falling out, but now that edu has gone all these itk bollox stories are leaking out and it is embarrassing :oops: Like I said previously many times, both are equally culpable and BOTH should be gone

Don Howe apparently lost his patience with it all at the start of this century under a certain former manager and Paul Davis speaks about it very well in his autobiography. Scouts and coaches working every fucking minute to identity players, coach them, bring them through the age groups, win FA Youth Cups and then they very rarely if ever got a chance. All to do with the ego-maniac's megalomania when Howe, Brady and Davis started getting praise and attention for their work. He didn't like it and seemed determined to prevent any of their players from getting a chance in the first team because he liked his reputation that the media had given him for spotting players from other countries.
It does seem that we're on a similar path under his manager. If they're not his players then he'll make life harder for them.

There's no doubt with Arteta's Citeh links that those 3 are his signings. What is equally beyond doubt was the Brazilian love in and dodgy agent relationships that dealt us Mari, Willian, David Luiz, Marquinhos....and through dealings with said agent, Cedric. Fuck did we waste some wages on that crock of shit! Edu can go f++k himself. Can't believe anyone is truly crying over his departure

To be clear here, I AM NOT crying over edu's departure - what is pissing me off about edu's departure is how fast the opportunistic cone boy fans are jumping all over it to wash all the blame off lego head

Another question I have is how he was able to resign and walk out the door in same day :? Every other club the person leaving has to work out notice or be put on gardening leave etc, but edu can announce he is off and our club is powerless ??

Just read an article praising Edu for transforming the team by landing both Havertz and Rice. One a decent player, who we paid way, way too much for, and the other, a kind of too slow, bang average, makeshift "striker." A snip at 200m for the pair. Get maybe half of that back if we ever unload them. Maybe half.......???

I read TWO articles yesterday listing Saliba as one of edu's great signings, despite the fact that Saliba was actually signed before edu joined the club and was loaned back to his french club - never let the truth get in the way of a good narrative eh :roll: :banghead: :banghead:
