Mikel Arteta, success or failure? - Merged thread.

[Retro Gunner]

Oh and have you noticed that the fan boys never answer the question "how long are you prepared to give him while you wait for success?".

We're either a big club or we're not and from 2006 under Wenger we didn't behave like one. I was hopeful that the owners might have seen the error of their ways when they backed Arteta with money and their faith in him to call the shots, but if they allow him to hang around ad infinitum, while only getting top4, then we'll know that they lack real ambition, as we all suspected. If we win nothing this season, as I fully expect, then it will test the owner's mettle. I fear they'll come up short and give Legohead another 100 million to blow in the summer. The chavs and City are probably already licking their lips at the prospect of off-loading some more washed up crap.

Firmly in the "he can go at the end of the season" camp if he fails to win anything, you can chalk the caracunnt cup off now.

[SteveO 35]

Tried to defend him for the past year and a bit but that's the lot after tonight

God awful slow boring dull as shit football. Hundreds of millions spent and going backwards

Also the losers mentality under Wenger is back. As soon as the business end of a competiton comes into view we bottle it. Carabao Cup, CL, Premier League - thought he'd overturned that but he hasn't

That was Banter FC back to its worst tonight

Just fuck off now. It's done

[DB10GOONER]

Fuck him out. Apoint a beginner and reap shit.

[DB10GOONER]

Schooled by Chubby Howe. I'm fucking mortified.

It's time now for sure. No come back from that. The PL is gone, we are notoriously awful in the CL Knockouts, the FA Cup has been a joke since he won with Emery's team. There's no bright new era, just one that's as boring and stale as Wenger's last decade. That reminded me of some of the dross Wenger's limpdicks served up for years on end and judging by the 20000 empty seats in the last 15 mins, many more agree

Exactly what it reminded me of mate.

Apparently we had an xG of over 3 though.....so that makes it alright !

Maybe we'll start getting some of the Wenger quotes about "overall we showed very good spirit" and lost in "little bit special circumstances"

It's fucking 2010 revisited. We've even got Theo in the sky studio to remind us!

Maybe Loic Remy will come and nearly sign for us to save the day eh

Just like in the latter wenger years, we deserve fcuk all - as a fanbase we seem to be over-run with dumb as shit c.unts who simply refuse to see what is in front of them, and CHOOSE to believe that we are on the cusp of success if we stick with a failing manager Honestly it is embarrassing how many believed we could win a league with rejects that our rivals deemed not good enough - it is beyond baffling how many could see that we desperately need a quality striker, but still backed the man who refused to buy one in the last four transfer windows

Sadly this c.unt is going nowhere cos our fanbase is populated with c.unts who need to see a total collapse before they voice their anger - be good chaps and support the club and sure it'll be grand

It's done after tonight, that's it. Proof we will never win anything under him. That's the weakest of the 4 competitions and don't give me any injury excuses. We have Saka and White out from our start of season best XI and every single team has at least 2 out.

It's over. No excuses. We are going backwards and the football is awful to watch. We could be out there still with the modern day equivalent of GG's 1995 robots in midfield and not score a goal if we played till daylight

Not much more to say, really. He's reached his ceiling and needs moving on if we're to actually make any sort of realistic progress next season. Too many poor players that aren't good enough when it matters, only sporadic decent performances, imbalanced formations, not able to identify the right players to improve us, team has reached its limit under him. It's just going to fall away now unless he's either going to have a wholesale clear-out which is unlikely or buy two world class strikers in the next two windows- impossible. We will end the season with nothing but nobody will be brave enough to say he has to go.

[Limerick Gooner]

Lot of illness in the squad. Bad miss from Havertz. We didn’t deserve to lose 2-0. Massive over reaction on here as per usual.

He's done the full GG transformation from 1992 scoring goals for fun playing exciting football with goals coming from all angles, to the mid 90s GG with a bunch of one paced plodders stinking the place out. The key difference was GG still picked up 3 trophies playing shit football and could organise a team to strangle the life out of a game and win 1-0. This team have inherited the Wenger limpdicked loser traits and won't win anything

Ten Haag was a cockhole but even he won trophies unlike beegee hair
