Tbh I'd take Ancelotti or Simeone in a heartbeat tomorrow morning to replace Temu Pep.
I often wonder what we might have won if Ancelotti had come to us in 2018 or 2019, rather than to Everton. I honestly reckon we'd have won at two or three PL titles, a couple of FA Cups and at least one CL (particularly if he had been backed to the tune of 800million like ArsenTeta has been!)
I wanted us to get shot of the Old Fraud and snap up Ancelotti in 2011, when the chavs stupidly sacked him. Never mind, we still had 7 more years of special circumstances, accidents and the handbrake on, to enjoy with the French clown at the helm. Overall, quite a mistake.
I wanted Ancelotti above anyone else to replace Wenger and then Emery. Like DB said, I genuinely believe Ancelotti would have delivered titles a few cups and maybe even European glory.
Apparently Ancelotti wanted the job when Wenger left and all when Emery was sacked. I’d still take him now!
Had the pleasure of a bit of time with Perry Groves today. Now I know that he can be a bit of a rent-a-quote and a gob-shïte, but he is convinced that Tets is winning us the league next season. I suppose that time will tell.
Also, Perry loathes Jamie Carragher, which was nice to hear too!

Saw him at one of those gigs with Merson or Alan Smith. I forget which. He says we will win the League with Arteta every season. He is too loyal to Arsenal to see what it actually going on.

As I pointed out on another thread, clowns like groves and wrighty think they are doing us and the club a favour by defending the manager and players in public, but the reality is that they are only ensuring that nothing changes and we will continue to fail year after year. Wrighty got the hump with rat neville at his suggestion that we have regressed this season, but the reality is that we have regressed, and instead of denying reality, they would be better off shining a spotlight on WHY we have regressed. They havent the balls to question some of the signings the cone boy made. They havent the balls to come out and blame him for not signing a quality striker. Not one of them has the balls to say publicly that captain coward needs to be replaced - other pundits have question him disappearing in the big games so its not as if it isnt being discussed, but instead of being an honest pundit and admitting the problem, they defend the manager and captain and club just like that c.unt keown did with the french cock for years

He's a nice fella and all...met him with my lad on one of the legends tours and he loves the club...but he also works for them so hardly going to give any sort of impartial view.
It was quite funny on the tour because he didn't stop sucking Wenger's cock throughout and banging on about what a legend he was, built the stadium and everything inside it etc. My lad kept looking over at me as I was gradually getting to the point where I thought my head would explode....and I was so fucked off I refused to have my photo taken with that fucking statue afterwards
""We [the current Arsenal squad] are there," he said. "With the amount of points we generated over the last few seasons, we could have two Premier Leagues.
"We're not close, we are there. We are providing the numbers that win you titles. We have to be a little bit luckier, do better and hope nobody does better than you.""
Its utterly cringe and embarrassing, someone at the club take the mic away from this absolute clown.
Fucking hell.
This is the type of utter shit people that know nothing about football spout. It's like the shit Mad Marty Wilson 2.0 used to post on here.
Fucking maths wins you league titles. Jesus Christ.
Papers are def rounding on the cone boy now - its as if they smell change in the air. Uk Independent ran an article last night/today referring to cone boys ramblings and suggested that nonsense like that is why fans of so many other clubs dislike us cos we reek of entitlement and excuses. They openly said that that the cone boy isnt popular amongst other managers and is openly disliked by staff at other clubs. Even the metro are having a go today cos they referring to comments by cone boy suggesting psg right full should have been sent off in first game cos he committed two fouls late in the game when he was already on a yellow card - as everyone knows, I am a massive Timber fan but fcuk me no-one committed more fouls in that first game than him and he got away with murder imo, but the gormless cone boy doesnt recognise that at all. The back bage of one or two red tops going after him this morning too - honestly if he keeps shooting himself in the foot with nonsense like this and we have a poor run in for last few games, then he could get himself sacked which would be a blessing for us all

I just don’t understand the mentality, its as if im an outsider in thinking youre obviously not providing the numbers because if you were you’d have won the league, in this years case the only team providing the numbers are the dippers.
How the fuck he equates results this season with providing the numbers is baffling, it’s like he thinks it should be good enough if only those other pesky teams weren’t all competitive and harshing his mellow, he’s a fucking tool.
Anyway I’m off to apply for my mortgage with a 4 grand deposit ready to go, I don’t foresee any issues as I’m providing the numbers that sufficed for my parents when they did it……job done

Well that's no surprise is it!!? Any part of the media/pundits/rags etc will Always take any opportunity to slag -off and / or criticise Anything Arsenal related...
He’s still living in last season. I think we were ok last season and a City juggernaut pipped us. Hard to swallow but it happened and I’m not sure he has gotten over it.
This season we have regressed seriously and I think we will get further and further away. Arteta needs to buck up or he is going to lose the plot in a serious way next season when it all falls apart again before Christmas.
I'm with you all on the need to go, but I can't help feeling we will surely go big this summer as it's so obviously needed it would be mental not to. Not that it wasn't last season re. striker.
That's the only hope I have it's so glaringly obvious which ar as we need improving pler wise ignoring the other issues that come with this guys tactics, in game etc that surely berta will make them see sense signing wise.
I think we will see a big bucks striker, left winger and cm and Raya competition as he's regressed.
Problem is we need 2 strikers and the biggest issue which won't be addressed ever is captain milksop.
Even if we signed Salah or haaland up top we would still have this coward/complete attack slower downer behind them as our creative spark.
Yes we desperately need a goalscorer and as some say that may make milksop better as he has someone to pass to, but even then I think he's shit and that will kill us unless we improve on milksop.
You see all sorts of teams winning things this year, while we’re stuck in ‘phase 12’ with a manager who’s team talks are based on lightbulbs, feeling the energy, and feeling the love. His tactics are about as impactful as doing slight of hand magic in front of Stevie Wonder, and his in game management skills are straight out of Uncle Arsene’s book of “84th minute subs and why I keep doing them” (a whole series of books called the “Why do you look at me?: 30 years in football by Arsene Wenger.”)
At any other big club, he’d have been sacked years ago and he’d likely be flaunting his lightbulbs for Real Zaragoza by now, and making them buy him another dog. At Arsenal? We hand clowns like that £15m a year contracts.
Any part of the media/pundits/rags etc will
