BlueRayDick:
Yeah. Let’s hope we will see a motivated set of players lining up to play this evening

Spy360:
Arteta is inexperienced and also unfortunate to manage the club at a time when poor management structures are in place. I was one of those who campaigned for him, because he [b]looks like someone who is intelligent and principled. I will still give him till end of season. He seems to have a plan and I am interested in knowing how it will work out.[/b] He made a terrible mistake freezing out Ozil after failing to sign an AM. So he has Jan to correct his error, by then we will see how he will do.

sod09:
Yes na

Kokaneprodigy, when are we going to ebening page to tender our apology he doesn't the insults.
We were scammed by adete

Spy360:
Wolves aren't doing well either. I think you are just driven by sentiments. Leicester and Everton are pushing above their weights, they are good examples you can use.

As for Arteta, I think he is playing the fool for the board. They made him freeze out Ozil without replacement, now it's affecting the team and we now believe he is a defensively minded coach simply because he chose to strengthen our defense.

Let me tell you, 15th place would be a dream come true if we had not signed Gabriel and/or Partey and got only Aouar instead. You have not experienced what a bad defense can do, or probably you have forgotten the calamitous tears we had when our defenders became clowns every night despite that we were scoring goals.

The problem with this team is simply the lack of an AM and the fact that the DM we signed isn't playing. That's why I can forgive Arteta's errors as this team is so balanced. Once Jan is over and we have an AM and Partey returns from injury, then I expect this team to do a lot better.

Who will start #artetaout movement

Jencejyde:
In all honesty what I think arteta needs to do is be more vocal . Call out lazy players and demand relentless effort and attitude . The second half showed that if everyone came in with the Saka Attitude, we may not still have played the best football but we would most certainly be in the ascendancy for most periods with more that enough chances to secure maximum points.

The way they were walking on the pitch at times was infuriating. This is Arsenal at home and Southampton has so much time on the ball to the extent of having superior ball possession? It's a disgrace for any team other than the traditional four to have more of the ball than Arsenal at the emirates.

And why has our pressing disappeared and become disjointed? Is pressing so hard or are these players just flat out lazy. If any player can not work his socks off over 90 minutes then the manager should be brave enough to drop him

I like miguel azzeez and folarrin nd boy do I miss martinelli.

I'm also a bit disappointed that Arteta who learned under Pep with the same philoshopy is bowing to pressure of changing his style due to poor performances. I'd rather that he sticks to his philosophy of having possession to create chances from open play which is the type of football arsenal is know for. If any of the senior players are to lazy to perform . Be like mourhino and publicly call them out and use other players.

These guys are paid good money and this performances should not be tolerated. Even if we end up in a relegation dogfight. Let's know that the eleven we put on the pitch will play their hearts out . Liverpool do not have the classiest players but the most hardworking ones who will run for 90 minutes sticking to their plan. If we need to move forward the players coming in must embrace the culture and the present ones must be re orientated . No team respects Arsenal again and it's clear to see why cos the players are not ready to put in a shift. It's a ruthless league and only the strong survive.

Neways we move!

kokanepyramid:
Come off it, With a strong attack and average defence which was what we had , we won’t go over 5 games without winning, we won’t go the whole November with only penalty to show for it.

No team has won anything with a below average attack, below average midfield and strong defence.

Spy360:
Permit me to rephrase my comment.

Our problem in attack is not the attackers but the midfielders. We have absolutely no midfield as there is no attack creation from there. So don't blame the defensive issues on the attackers. Saka has been outstanding, b7t when you see Aubameyang goal, you know he is not a small finisher, he only needs to do less ball work and focus on scoring. But that can only happen when someone else in midfield is doing that ball work. Our problem this season has been in midfield. Our failure to sign an AM has been our undoing.

Please refer to Roland17 post above for more clarification.

Spy360:
Our problem lies in midfield not attack ... Using Gabriel's red for arguments is a cheap score

Spy360:
Some coaches are just not suited to handling pressure like in big clubs, for example Moyes. But no doubt Nuno is a brilliant coach.

mostob:
My brother, the thing vex me . I think I and Jodera were discussing here on how it is a gamble to sign Aouar that there is nothing special about him. And Szoboszlai and Benrhama were both available for less fee. Arsenal's scouts no just get sense. what pains more is their interference with the coach's decision. Emery wanted Zaha, they gave him Pepe.....and many others i can't even remember .

ORIJIN201:
God bless you. The worst part of everything is that Our players are not even physical at all. They fall all over the pitch. We need athletic players and not all these mumu fine boys wey nothing Dey their yansh.

Jodera2:
Yeah... With the way the guy dribbles in tight spaces eh, it's surprising. I saw him do that once in a match, I thought it was a fluke, seeing him do that on another occasion, I then knew there's something about that boy. And his passes too are great. It's good he came and the right time wen Milan had stability, else it would have been detrimental to his growth

Spy360:
Yes I can confirm that. Their scouting is just superb. They even got Semedo on loan when no one was looking. I think their performance boils down to the coach. Players like AMN and Torriera who have that work rate will thrive under such managers.

iamoyindamola:
My brother showed me podence when he was in olypiakos I think against spurs. I never paid attention until wolves paid for his service even with his injury.
I watched his first match in wolves colour fear catch me, I asked who is this no10 guy he said shebi that's the podence he was talking about.
We need scouts like that not the useless one that will give us Pepe and Chelsea rejects

olabode89:
Wolves don't do extensive scouting, they implement an agent led recruitment system spearheaded by Jorge Mendes the super agent. Most of their signings are guys with links to Mendes.

ORIJIN201:
the thing I love about them the most is how hard they work. They work so hard and frustrate opponents. Movement is superb too. But our own chickens will stay stagnant in one position be waiting for sideway passes. Useless bunch!

Spy360:
I just love Wolves players. So much confidence, gusto, determination, drive...

ORIJIN201:
See Neto. Another fantastic player in the mould of Jota I clamored we sign last season. We go sign Pepe wey no wan get sense. Neto is there now, we go prefer we squander money on another useless player.

Jodera2:
Yeah, you have a point.

I don't think any top club in EPL would have allowed Arteta this leeway he had till now.

Another reason I feel fans would have either made him step up(that's dropping underperforming players) or see the sack is that, the boos by the fans would have reset his brain. If it continues, fans might start to leave before end of match, and if such bad run continues, then fans might refuse to turn up to stadium. This is where I feel the board will be pressured to step in cos they live for profit, thus if Arteta doesn't improve, he'll get the sack.

I just think Arteta prolonged stay is due to absence of fans, else he'll be in hotter seat than he is presently

Spy360:
One day you are advocating more patience with Emery, the next you are complaining that Arsenal are too patient. Oga why?

Jodera:
This has been my point of what I'm hoping he does but he's not doing it. That's why I told kodded that if he can't bench "big" and underperforming players, then he has no business being in a top club.

He should also thank God that fans are not on the stadium all these times of bad results, cos it would have been very very worse for him

from Tierney post match interview, I belive that arteta has not lost the dressing room, i think that the only people that are unhappy with the coach are the same people that were unhappy with emery and wenger.

if arsenal need to move forward i think its best to stick with arteta and bin all those old cargoes. because if we sack arteta then we are going round circles because the next manager will still have to face these old cargoes with their over inflated ego in the squad and by this time next year we all will be clamoring for the head of the next manager.


i think its time for we the fans to back arteta no matter what, if arteta is gone then the old cargoes has won again, they did it with wenger, they did it with emery now they have started that rubbish with arteta, and I'm sure those useless players will still do the same shít with the new manager.



las las na we the fans go suffer am because those players will continue that rubbish and still get paid while we languish in the league with the new manager.
