One definite mistake of Arteta was returning Jesus right back to the XI. I can't even recall the last time he converted after 2 chances again. Smh. That was a mistake. Kane coming to this XI would mean we need to change the entire setup and return to counter attack football. We are possession based and can't crack down defences that sit back comfy. That's why most passes are between Gabriel-Partey-White than Odegaard-Saka-Xhaka. Everyone now knows they easily pass back will small pressure than risk a crack down.

Thank you. Shows you understand the main point. Relate and compare what you posted here to Arsenal's situation this season.

Lush100:
One of Mancity or Milan will bottle it at UCL final....no be do.

Even if arsenal reach final once we no win....some people go lament.
Na eem dem hammer Real madrid....na the same real Coach wey win am last year oh.

Una so una lament for Wenger.

Wenger sef reach UCL final.

U see person dey score 53 goals for a team.

U think say na ordinary.
Una wan 20 years old Saka to die for pitch because una no carry EPL.

mostob:
But they try na...semi final fah. You forgot Madrid and Bayern are way more experienced and has better squad.

iamoyindamola:
Have never invested in arsenal as I did this season
The pain is unbearable,I dan even plan giveaway to celebrate our ghost league trophy

mostob:
Jodera, UCL and EPL are different competitions. If Arsenal should reach the semi final of the UCL next season and lose to Madrid or even Bayern, the players will be applauded. That is it. You can't compare both scenarios.

Jodera:
Lol... The way most guys here wailed last season when we lost out on top 4, you'd think we'll never make Top4 again. In fact, if few of us have any power then, dem for sack Arteta forgetting how the team played and that just few quality additional players and we'll get into top 4.
We fail to see the bigger picture sometimes.

The issue is that you're comparing Arsenal of latter Wenger years to this one. Those ones were serial bottlers and most of the time not ambitious except one or two players all due to the mediocrity Wenger allowed. In fact, that 2nd position we took was a fluke cos I know when other big teams sit up, we'll be done for. That team was on a downward slope and the last decades proved so

This arsenal is different. It's on an upward drive that needs few quality additions to become quality challengers again. I wonder how you didn't see it when you were one of those who saw Liverpool's upward drive under Klopp even before he won his first trophy.

The only reason dem Saka and Odegaard would go is if arsenal and Arteta decides to show no ambition.

So far for the bolded, I don't see such cycle repeating itself soon

Jodera:
This is the long and short of my thoughts and opinions.

Calling Arteta or the team a failure as if they did a disgraceful something I don't just understand. This is just branding all their efforts in vain or refuse to see the progress just because they punched above their weight.

If it's from rival fans, it's understandable. If It's pouring out your grievances and disappointment, it's understandable.

But trolling your own team for trying to win the ultimate goal but it didn't happen? C'mon!!

Spy360:
Their performance today showed they aren't as good as we thought. They were clearly beaten today in their home ground. I can't see a City side, no matter how poor they play crumble this low.

iamoyindamola:
If we still they Europa up till now the league no go pain me
City are fvcking fighting for 3 titles ATM

Shegzdave:
😞
I don’t understand why some of our fans are cool with mediocrity

You had a chance to win the league this season and you bottled it but we’re suppose to be satisfied since you overachieved cause the aim is top4?

Roland17:
We are blaming Man City this time around for chasing us. That is our story and we are sticking with it.

Roland17:
Na we be fake fans my brother. Just make sure you don’t criticize Arteta, otherwise, I hit the report button ontop your moniker!

iamoyindamola:
The original fans are okay with this near success we are just wannabes

Spy360:
There was no way we were going to succeed head to head with City. Arsenal team was overrated. The players aren't as good as thought. The formation change was good and helped us through the season but change was not sustainable.

We go again next season. Hoping that this time there would be further improvement as we have seen. Title next season is no excuse.

Roland17:
You want to know if Arsenal bottled the league?

For the first time this season, majority of the fans left the stadium after we conceded the 3rd goal. The stadium was blank.

I wonder if those ones feel we are overachievers since the league was not the goal and agreement.

iamoyindamola:
With 150m prepared for arteta to sign more players
We still need to sell
Outgoings
Xhaka he had a very good season but one moment on madness always ruin it
If we can't sell him atleast he should be a squad player
Holding must go, he's not arsenal level I have nothing else to say
Mari we are collecting 6m from Monza not a bad deal I think we got him for 8m or so
Elneny abeg release him or integrate him to coaching crew
AMN please release him
Balogun unless we sell nketiah I don't think we need balogun, we should sell him and put buy back clause
Patino, azeez, and that mexican that went to la Liga 2 please sell them all
Tavarez if tear knee is going tavarez is a good back up I still believe in him especially with the kind of defence we have
Tomi should be a back up or we sell him and get walker peters/Tariq/Aaron's
Nelson should go abeg I no too trust the guy especially when I remember Sancho and they grew up together e they always vex me
Peperempe we have to put him on jiji or Amazon to get a buyer🤣🤣
Viera should go on loan with option to buy
ESR arteta should decide his plan with the lad

Incoming
Rice I do t like this guy, I don't think he's worth 100m atleast 50m
Lavia or caicedo is better alternative or d.sow of Frankfurt
We need a winger to compete with saka badly
We need another RCB
We should try to get vlahovic I think we need him now
I trust edu and arteta to spend wisely atleast their transfers have been 8/10
Any update on tielemans and the Frankfurt defender that's coming on free transfer?

Squawka

Arsenal are the first team in Europe's top five divisions to have four players reach 10+ league goals this season:

◉ Bukayo Saka
◉ Gabriel Martinelli
◉ Martin Ødegaard
◉ Gabriel Jesus

The Gunners have serious firepower. 💥

This is what you get when you have all attackers creating, assisting and scoring as against waiting for a No9 that would be lurking around the box for a tap-in.... The No9 would then take the glory for all the team as the only savior, whereas in the bigger picture, he isn't making the attack sharp enough.

I told one guy that City don't have Squad depth any longer like they used to, immediately Pep made the 5 subs in the game against Leicester, Leicester grew into the game and should have possibly drew the game.

Roland17:
I agree with you but I think if he gets to a big club where he is allowed to build his own team he will succeed. But, that is usually difficult in Big teams because Big teams control transfers in and out of the club.
Saka would have disappeared or remained relatively unknown if not for Ebening. Ebening was consistent in the development of young players while he was with us.

iamoyindamola:
My issue with ebening is that he can't handle big players
It happened at psg and arsenal but he can manage mid players to make superstars out of them
I will always appreciate him for giving us Tierney, martinelli and introducing saka to the first team
I highly doubt arteta will bring in saka if it was him

iamoyindamola:
Ramsdale is the keeper wengay never had
The one that can win you 15 points not that old and useless cech

iamoyindamola:
Abeg we no imagine anything
