So we ain't even at the business end of the season yet and Arsenal and Arteta are bottling it already

If you want to start really competing for the league Arteta has to go, said it for years now :hubie:
Kroenke won’t do it

PSV eliminating us will be the icing on the cake.

Ducked Jamaica duty to celebrate his birthday, drank all summer, showed up out of shape and been battling injuries.

He'll be gone by next summer, hope he can learn Arabic.
Turning on his alleged countryman for the sake of his club :wow: only commenting on another club when the club he bandwagon is in the mud :scust:

Never liked that bullshyt he pulled wit Jamaica. Cats gotta rep their countries.

I understand the frustration that comes with it especially dealing wit some of the folks at the head of these orgs especially Caribbean ones but that was a bad look for breh.

One, they're not bottling it. At no point this season have they been superior to Liverpool.

Two, folks who say Arteta should be sacked never say what he's doing poorly. He's just not winning trophies and finishing second, which is a terrible reason to fire a manager. Despite the poor summer and injuries he's created two of the best young players in the league and somehow kept them in it. There are, what, TWO managers in the league better than him?

If they want to be serious about winning things and winning the league they need to upgrade


Arsenal will never win the league with Arteta in charge

This season was their one chance to win the league with City being so bad and they have gone backwards under him

Slot has come in and look what he is doing in his first season without really buying anyone , and some would say Arsenal had the better team as they finished above Liverpool last year

The arteta needa go convos are so dumb. Saka, havertz, martinelli, jesus are all gone. Sterling moves like a senior citizen. Ollie watkins was about to put pen to paper if the Saudis didnt pull up in their Audis to drop a Duran bag.

If we go and get an elite striker and shyt ourselves next year with everyone healthy, okay. He can dip

Blah blah blah lazy analysis, ignore the metrics and success, ignore all context, you have to fire your most successful manager since early 2000s wenger because we (rival fans) say so.

Look how our coach (Slot) is about to win the league with a roster that previously.... won the league.

Injuries derailed Klopps last season like its derailed ours this year. Doesnt mean pool lacks talent.

Sorry I don't rate Arteta and never have , but if you want to keep defending him because he is securing top 4 and that's it then go ahead

As for injuries derailing your season, you can only really say Saka is out and is affecting the team because Havertz, Martenelli and Jesus's do nothing when they are fit, they are that bad and that is about 115 million Atteta wasted on buying them all

And our season got derailed last season not because of injuries it was because of the loss and the way we lost to Man U in the Fa Cup

Your logic here : a coach who has led a team to top 2 finishes the last couple of seasons, should be sacked


As for injuries derailing your season, you can only really say Saka is out and is affecting the team because Havertz, Martenelli and Jesus's do nothing when they are fit

Your logic here : a team having 2 healthy forwards, left out of 6, should actually improve our chances

Also, fire arteta cause you dont rate him....

Great stuff.

Classic pool fan logic.

Klopp won 1 prem trophy in a decade and for some reason, yall stay breathing down Artetas neck. Im not sure a Chelsea, United, or City fan has brought up Artetas job status more than once ITT

I was just referring to this season - Nwaneri and MLS.

Wanting Arteta sacked is almost as dumb as United fans wanting Amorim sacked. Who would they replace him with? Thomas Frank? Mourinho? Southgate?
