Great shout.
Not against either of these suggestions.
Potter is my pick of the realistically available coaches, and somebody Iāve watched whereas I know the square root of fuck all about Gallardo
We just need anyone who will go back to basics, play players in their proper positions, not chop and change players or change formations every week for no reason, and letās our attacking players play fucking football.
How Arteta has changed every player for the worst gets over looked a lot.
1- Auba prolific goal scorer, averaging 20 goals a season for the majority of his career was turned into a make shift winger who went like 9 games with out scoring a goal.
2- David Luiz was a true ball playing defender who would pass through the middle and over the top, thatās gone completely.
3- Gabriel was an aggressive ball playing defender who used to play long balls behind for players like Pepe and Auba, thatās been completely drilled out of him
4- Thomas Partey was an elite central midfielder who used to control games, break up play and play defence splitting passes, thatās all gone.
5- Pepe was an explosive inside forward that oozed flair, thatās all completely gone.
And thatās off the top of my head. This guy isnāt even a hipster heās just a clown, at least the hipsters are brave enough to stick to their convictions and play the way they want to play, Arteta doesnāt even know what heās doing, which is why our players are clueless. Like who the fuck Plays two formations that your team has basically never played before in the two most important games of the season? What was he even trying to do? Weāve had 4 shots in two legs against a man who would regularly concede 20 shots a game against the likes of Watford
Announce Kjetil Knutsen.
It sounds overly simplistic but it really isnāt. Just pick your best players and play them where they can be most effective. He just doesnāt do the most logical things and there are way too many examples now.
Absolutely this.
Everything Iāve read concerning Arsenal suggests that they feel a sense of superiority due to the fact they āgive managers a chanceā and donāt sack managers regularly.
All I see is delaying the inevitable. The optimum moment is now, as it gives the new coach time to bed in.
One of the most famous quotes in football you hear repeated often is Fergusonās āthereās no evidence that sacking a manager brings success, but thereās all the evidence that sticking with the manager leads to successā. Itās a quote that I simply cannot believe gets repeated to the degree that it does, because itās absolute nonsense. Thereās endless amounts of evidence that sacking a manager leads to success, and frankly the most successful clubs are now the ones who do it quickly and donāt waste time waiting for someone who isnāt fit for purpose to come good.
Would any of these managers actually want to come here though?
Weāre an absolutely travesty of a club and beginning to look like a poisoned chalice.
I highly doubt managers like Allegri, Conte, Rangnick etc would even consider us. Why would they?!
Money ? We still pay well.
He was willing to go to a bankrupted Milan, he just wants the sexual pleasure of building teams at his image.
Does anyone have confidence in the people selecting the next manager?
Until the hierarchy at the club is sorted (and people replaced), I donāt think it matters if they change managers.
They tried the somewhat successful, underwhelming guy with Emery.
Then went the āhire the next big thingā on the cheap with Arteta.
And, the accomplished veteran (I.e. Allegri, etc, etc) will see the dysfunction of the club and want no part unless given a lot of control (which the Kroenkes donāt seem likely to do).
Not sure where they go from hereā¦
Yup pretty sad state of affairs when big daddy Wenger isnāt there to bail the club out
Worse was the club had no plan in place for when Wengerās magic was gone.
Itās always tough to follow a legend at a club, but the knee jerk was Gazidis hiring someone that had trouble communicating with the team (language issues) and then the club hiring someone to learn on the job because a manager backed with unlimited money thinks he was a good assistant. Throw in some entitled players making life difficult and you get the mid table mess that is Arsenal right now.
The structure of the club is in shambles. If that doesnāt get fixed, I donāt see how the club progress.
Thatās actually the angle I would take with the Kroenkes if I was the Spotify CEO making a bidāshow them how much Arsenalās value will continue to decline with no Euro football, upset and apathetic fan base, less TV revenue, etc. Might be able to tempt Stan into selling. Surely, The Kroenkes realize that there isnāt the American sports mechanisms in place (draft, salary cap) to keep the team competitive and from the value falling further the longer the club languishes around the mid table.
Hate to break it to you but Wenger dealt with the same issues and persevered despite not being given the tools for many years. The issue isnāt that there was no plan for life after Arsene, there also wasnāt a plan for life with Arsene. Well, there were plans but conflicting plans due to power struggles withing the club ect. We coulda had it all with Arsene and Sven, almost lucked into being relevant again lololol
Wenger was the structure, full stop.
Your favorite meme was thinking he was bamboozled into singing shitters like Xhaka and Mustafi, but those guys really did cement Arsenalās decline. No transfers got done without his approval.
Wenger running things was a money printing machine for quite a while for the Kroenkes. Once he lost his touch with transfers and dithered on guys he could have had like Hazard, he was done contending here.
I choose to remember Wenger fondly, but the last few years where a train wreck and the clubās lack of the planning compounded it to the results of where Arsenal currently sit in English football.
This is factually incorrect. Both Mustafi and Perez were done without his approval. And he stopped personally scouting players. Itās also well documented he wanted VVD, KDB, and Greizmann but was convinced otherwise by scouts. This dumb shit idea that Arsene was some type of dictator is really idiotic, and if u believe all that, then Iām not surprised if u buy all the pro Arteta propaganda either. Wenger was a fall man for how shit this organization is, full stop end of story bruh. And itād clear as day now, but carry on with ur agenda as itās looking more stupid by the day.
I donāt have an agenda. I donāt buy the propaganda from the club.
Youāre dumber than most of your posts suggest if you donāt think that Wenger had final say on transfers.
Sure, he wanted a lot of top players, but refused to pay market valuations for most of them.
Guy was fantastic for so longāshame it ended the way it did. Iām sure he regrets not adding anyone in the āSummer of Cechā as he could have rode off into the sunset on such a high note.
Yeh Iām sure heās upset the club didnāt buy anyone at that time as transfers were left out of his hands at that point. Last proper window he had was 2014 when we bought Alexis Sanchez. After that it was Gabriel Paulista and Elneny from Stat DNA. Again this is all proven fact donāt be lazy and do some research
