Since Xhaka left, everything he's did for us, he is still doing. And he's aged like fine wine with improvement as well. I miss his out of the blues shots. His replacement can't even shot to save himself. |

iamoyindamola: You guys keep blaming administration like they pick money from sky, if you invest in something without result but hope will you continue. In the end we haven't gotten any results from the spending but only hope we are fighting, some fans even turned it to achievement and made the coach immortal. Have said it several times that we will suffer for arteta wastefulness And it's biting us hard, this man and edu prioritize defense than balancing the squad. All the useless players they loaned out are still useless apart from Tavares No one wants awilo, maquinhos and viera sum up the 3 and you get a good RW or CF. He also got a useless versatile player in Kai that's useless in all position I knew this day the owners won't drop money again will come, the fact that he is not even helping himself speak alot Even if he bottle 2 league trophies he should at least win some other cups Just choose your pick now. 🤦🏽♂️😂😂 No be me you tell this one cos i dey shout all this one pass you na🤠 Just pick joor. That Marquinhos resemble Eto'o sef |

safarigirl: Yes, I could have even written more than this, in explaining why I wnded up with 5.7/10.
Everything was pretty, but the storyline had too many loopholes I did check it out. Was so unimpressed, especially that okada love with Janded Babe. Kilode. Plus in which Nigerian world will the babe responsible for a crack in a serious relationship be made to be event planner for your wedding? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 The Nigerianness of Wole Ojo for Naija format of relationships>>>>>> than all that stuff RMD was doing. His was more realistic. That french nonsense at the wedding too. 😤😤 The best thing about this movie was location, aesthetics and costumes. Acting was average Storyline was underwhelming I agree with your 5.7 but I'll remove that 0.7 5/10. The DOP needs to work with a better screenplay or scriptwriter and Director. They got talent. |

Roland17 your fraud friend have gotten a job in NWSL with San Diego wave Same ball wey sweet Isak to bury o. Chai. Shame dey catch me. So like this now, till tomorrow, if Odegaard dey play crap, no replacement on bench? Nobody should mention Nwaneri abeg. MA would rather do nonsense that make that kid a deputy. If we win NLD now, many fans go suddenly forget the nonsense this loss exposed. I don't want to wait for UCL KO stages before many fence-sitters realize we still haven't learnt anything from that Bayern Munich lesson till now |

Fkforyou: True. But getting any other coach now, will disrupt the team mentally.
This loss is on the players as much as it’s on Arteta, they keep talking about wanting to win something and when it matters the most, they switch off.
Where is the winning mentality? Just look at Troosard yesterday? Baba was just playing anyhow. Infact, he had no business returning for second half.
Hervertz was playing with a heavy feet all through out till he was shifted to the wings, and when Jesus came in, he was trying to play stylish game when we were two nil down, trying to guide the ball against Burn, that 6 ft7 man, and Odegaard was just misplacing passes up and down just because Saka wasn’t there for him to do 1,2. All true. Especially the complacency of the players. But I'll maintain that, like I've said since this season started, that Guava no fit give Apple. These guys can't bring trophies. They're not the firepower needed to make that happen. Even if they can, the quality of opponents and the stubbornness of our manager ruins a lot of stuff. Imagine this was a cup final yesternight, these guys will mess up upfront. Mentality is approximate. We need players with a coach that can do what Mourinho did to those Man U players that even with injury and a thin squad, they could still win that Europa. They didn't fall apart. Some pages back, i complained about the indiscipline of time wasting that these guys have normalized. If na Mourinho be coach, he will have killed that nonsense instantly. But now, even Ethan and MLS don catch am. We go dey alright. But these players themselves n3ed fresh legs, ideas and flair. Setpieces should be an icing not the cake. |

Time always tell.
Im seeing 5 gunner x handles that used to shut down those complaining about our attack now writing Epistles about why this attack can't win titles. All it took was several hundreds of heated exchanges on pov and this Newcastle game.
Its like an apc supporter that feels balaBluee will bring heaven on earth and tweet it in 2023. Only to be caught tweeting chronic complaints and groanings in 2024/25, with the usual "This you?"

Shegzdave: Another thing I’ve been complaining since is the ability of the players to shoot from any open position and not passing around till they’re dispossessed
Partey, Rice and Saka are the only people that guarantee Me that, even Ordegarrd that shoots well last season is now found wanting in that department This pass round crap I complained about it last season. Focus being Odegaard precisely. The one you don't now expect him to shoot naim he go shoot and score. Guy can be in 30 diff games and see at least 2 of such space and chance to give assists within the area or score but he go complicate am with dome indirect moves. Now see them shooting all the shots they supposed distribute from 10th week to 16th week of epl games. 23!!!! 🥶 |

BlueRayDick: No vex , it was koded that actually said that . I mixed u two up ni.
U are right , Rice played his heart out . Partey also played rubbish in his preferred Midfield role which we’ve all been clamouring for Arteta to return him there .
One thing with our fans is that we all have faves ;when our faves don’t play well we go silent and don’t say anything . But when a player we don’t like but others like plays badly , all hell will let loose .
Overall sha , I know when the team is on a winning streak everybody cheer the team and don’t remember the lesser quality bench and useless players in the starting lineup . The moment we hit a brick stone , Arsenal fans will join fans of other clubs to troll their own club. This I always find amusing It's okay. I no vex. I just weak say you don mix me with someone else. We need new attacking faves sha. Decisive ones. Not the rubbish seen tonight. If we have decisive finishers and miracle workers, we won't be headless despite 23shots compared to a mere 7. To one foolish fan, they fit say we dominated the game. Lol. It's that bad. I prefer a player having a bad game in their natural position which is normal that in a makeshift one. Reason is the excuse for the makeshift will be more on out of position than the actual blame on the manager for such. We run out of ideas and suddenly we resort to traditional approach without the precise personnel for such. Nothing go work. |

Fkforyou: Martinelli was the man of the match. He played his heart out.
I loved how Jorginho changed the tempo of the game.
Kudos to Newcastle, they taught us a lesson. I like that Isak, he is the kind of player we need. Unfortunately, the coach had eyes for other kind of players.
We just made this competition twice as hard for ourselves.
Arteta will be judged by end of the season, not now. He won't be the first or the last. Assessment of performance happens everyday. That's why managers can get sacked anything anywhere, even during tournaments. |

BlueRayDick: U still have an agenda against Rice 🤦♂️
I mean u literally said Rice is not better than Elneny the other day . But as u watch this match , Shey na Rice be the problem Abi other players ?
What was Rice supposed to do that he didn’t do well in this match ? Blueeeeeeeee Smalll smalll now... Ahannn Look face. Me  ? I never ever said that. You're mistaking me for the person that actually said that. Look face! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 On the reiterating side, for that my post you're reacting to. Take am jeje. It's not an attack on Rice. It is me saying he gets to do double or triple work whenever the whole team messes up. Clear now? |

Have the main philosophy
Have sweet Backup plan for moments when 1st philosophy/approach is not working. Get personnel for each approach. If modern, get modern If traditional, get trad If na cross and nod, get what will make defenders fear that approach. Not minimini manimo crap
Arsenal and approximate syndrome. Smh. |

Shegzdave: Arteta needs to give himself brain at this point, how could all your attack options not be reliable given the Funds you’ve spent so far in the past Transfer Window.
The issue of buying defenders every TW when it’s obvious your attack needs reinforcements needs to be called out to him by the board. Saka gets injured and we’re praying for a win.
The three purchases that vexed Me the most were Sterling, Merino and Harvertz(£65m) when you knew he’s not the ideal striker needed to complete this team as at then.
If Martinelli can’t be push deployed as a striker, he should be loan(as I advocated) cause he needs to up his game, trossard is another case cause he’s lost steam for some matches now

BlueRayDick: When did he okay terribly and his fans defended him ?
Show an instance here let’s see first . I’ve not seen anybody defending him when he played badly here to the best of my knowledge . E plenty. Evidence is not the issue here if na this one, Blueray. Everywhere, even here last season. Not to talk of twitter. I hope they get something up cos even Odegaard sef need competition right now. |

BlueRayDick: No u are missing things up .
Nobody supported his purchase .
But when he became an Arsenal player , fans had to support him like every other Arsenal player . When he plays well he gets his deserved credit and when he doesn’t he gets the stick .
Blaming him for games other didn’t perform is also not ideal . Even when he plays terribly, you'll still see fans reviling those that want to drag him. You'll think he was an Aubameyang or some Giroud sef. |

Roland17: My own na the rubbish we have been wasting money on. Take for instance, you have obvious needs but na Merino you go buy. We need a Saka back up, na Sterling you see. What of Calafiori? That one na luxury if you ask me. We easily could have addressed some parts of our deficiencies this past TW. Give him a dime now and he would buy another defender or another Chelsea scrap…
I won’t be shocked if he goes after Jackson next season. i posted his recruitment map here weeks ago. He's very lucky to inherit Saka and Martinelli. I can bet you he may not buy wingers if he those two weren't at the club. He wan use defenders ruin everything. Smh. Someone was even analyzing how Sterling will be good for us.... Many need psychiatric help o. Lol See how strikers dey epp clubs this season. And then we have our tame footed clown. |
