Re: Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.
"""""Arteta is not stagnating. His ideas aren't failing. Arsenal aren't falling behind. We are on the cusp of something very special and sadly, there are too many people blind to this because they can't handle a non-perfect season and they don't understand the process that goes behind getting to the top in elite-level sport."""""
Its not entirely true is it, i can handle a "non perfect" season, hell i might even do 2 or 3 of them, but 5....and nearly a billion squids later.......i'll cut loose and take my chances thanks.
Le grove is up there with the most insufferable Arse (wengers earned the right)blog........regular fans who have carved out a living with a blog, but heres the dirty dirty secret about having a blog......anyone can do it, it doesn't bestow upon you any sort of expertise in your chosen blog topic.
If you need an example read above, "Arteta is not stagnating" .......I'd call 5 years of nothing and a billion quid up against the wall as fairly stagnant......but sure what would i know....i dont have a blog!!

Le Grove is paid by the Club to write puff pieces.
Even in his own article he admits Arteta is over working the players, causing injuries and tiredness. He also admits we could have signed players that could have done the job but we are instead trying to find the perfect player even if it means we don’t sign anyone.

Re: Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.
What an absolute wanker. I seriously question how many of these arrogant bloggers have ever kicked a football. They talk more like pseudo management consultants….you know, those people that ask to borrow your watch and then tell you the time.
Too many flaws and omissions in that piece to respond to, as the response would be as long as that pile of “I know best” crap.
Well, let’s see where the “I told you so” comments end up coming from, because Arteta will still be here in 2 years time and I’ll be very surprised if we’re any closer to winning the PL or CL.
I’d love to be able to ask the prat how long he’s prepared to wait for the process to yield success, because I suspect he’ll be spinning the same lines in two years’ time.

Oh, by the way, he also says that we’re “on the cusp”.

Re: Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.
The funniest thing about Le Grove, both Pete and Matt Kandela flip flop every other week and contradict themselves. After Eddie scored a hat trick against Sheff Utd they both ranted about how he was the answer to Arsenals striker problem and that he had stepped up blah blah blah...... That soon changed to we need to upgrade on Eddie, he's not at the level......
On their pod after the Fulham final whistle, they both spoke about us being 'out of the title race now's, it's flip flop after flip flop!
The two of them love Zinchenko and get annoyed when Johnny Cochrane (the only realist on the pod) has a go about how he's not good enough.
You need some positivity or else it all ends like like this forum
but those two on Le Grove are so over the top you can't help but feel someone at the club is pulling their strings with PR bullshit

Credibility goes right out the window there - I dont hate zinchenko like many on here do because I knew before we signed him that he wasnt good enough, and he is also being hung out to dry by the cone boy and his inverted full back bu!!shit
