Lush100:
Firstly,
This issue should have been done without the noise

I know the press will ask questions but there was no need to bring it to the press conference.
Me think there was personal insults into this matter else, i see no reason.

Nketia has not been playing
They should have just done the same for auba. They should av just benched him like Pepe and do the whole discipline internally
If auba now makes noise about the matter via SM, then the club can make a statement with facts (stating his poor performance too)
Wenger would not have allowed this.

This thing sends out negative vibes no matter how you picture it and i can bet even if we get top4, arteta would be replaced eventually.
Only a serial winning coach would be allowed this sort of thing,
Why not maintain Laca as captain and add odegard to the group.

This is baby management haba

Is Arsenal is secret cult? The way we think sometimes...

Any reason why Aubameyang not being named in the match day squad cannot be kept internally as you put. Talk less of a disciplinary action as big as being striped of his captaincy.

There must be a public statement which has been made. The situation was perfectly handled.

iamoyindamola:
The truth is there is more to this story than we are hearing or seeing
This guy went to pick his mother not just anyone, if something happen along the way i am sure they won't be expecting him soon, we are just judging him base on he's an habitual late comer or he have 2 offences before, no one knows if he have delay in flight due to weather or anything to make him come late.

Almost the same happened to saliba when he lost his mom, he went to france spent more than he was given, arteta put him up in a match and concluded he wasn't ready he doesn't even know if the boy have recovered losing his mother
I don't like auba especially now that he's useless to us but that arteta is not innocent kankan, no wonder he couldn't say the real reason for punishing auba

You are feeling for him because it involves his mother which I understand. But believe me, there are many things we don't know about going behind the scenes. I thing I am sure of is that Arteta and Auba are good friends.

Arteta is showing that he is not afraid to make big decisions which for me is good. The team is young and everyone, Arteta and Auba and the other senior players must ensure they don't lay any bad foundations that will be detrimental to the club.

iamoyindamola:
His transfer to barca is gaining ground
I honestly won't mind

He wants to follow Henry's career path but unfortunately he will be no legend. Plus Barca won't win CL for another 600years.

iamoyindamola:
Blueraydick just confirmed that was in feburary, i hope you are getting my point when i said arteta is an asshole
Right now, the only valid reason was because he came late but still meet up with training

Arteta said it's accumulated offences now. He has been indiscipline and it's affecting the team spirit. How else did we trash Southampton on a day the captain was being punished. Even Laca loved it.

iamoyindamola:
I just did, pepe v xhaka
both collected stupid red card against teams we can beat
We drew the game pepe got sent off, you threw pepe out and accused him of sabotaging the team forcing him to apologized we drew the game away against leeds
On xhaka's case we lost the game at home against soton you went ahead to embrace xhaka even when the fans and team want apology for his stupidity nothing was done.
After pepe served his suspension he wasn't use for some time while xhaka was bought in immediately after his suspension

These cases cannot be compared to that of Auba. On the pitch acts of indiscipline are dealt with by the ref. Acts of indiscipline within the squad or inside the dressing room are regarded as gross misconducts.

However fairness and justice must be used at all times.

daveP:
Auba no get the Spirit to try that will Wenger. He messed up.

But few coaches will talk to the press about it even if they're pissed big time.

Two wrongs.


Mou and Pogba is example enough


Zidane and Bale


Mou and Balotelli


Anyways, Too low from Auba.

Why would Auba do something bad and is angry that his punishment was made public? Which kind mumu ego be that?

Especially when he is on a very poor form.

iamoyindamola:
I'm actually not supporting auba, inshort I want him out
But this Arteta have a way off asslicking when it matters
If this guy was firing in all cylinders this punishment won't happen that's my problem

This accusation is false. Why don't you give us an instance.

BlueRayDick:
This to me sound more like a beer parlor gossip, but then if it's true I don't see what Arteta has done wrong in all of these. Like in all Organizations, there are rules which all employees who eke their living in such orgnaizations must strictly adhere irrespective of their hierarchy/ designation. Auba gets paid hundred of thousands in pounds every week which affords him the luxurious lifestyle he's living. Complying with the club's/Arteta's rules shouldn't be a difficult task for him.

Forget ur personal "hate"/bias for Arteta, mention one coach u know that will allow their player(most importantly the team captain) to openly show flagrant disregard for the club's rules/protocols. Even Xavi that was just appointed by Barca gave a whole lot of do's and don't's he expects all Barca players to follow, of which failure abide by them will spell doom for such player.

I don't see the need to call Arteta Hypocrite here considering he didn't give Auba any preferental treatment, rather he gave him the axe like he would do any other player in Auba's shoes. Whatever the story behind Auba's missing training was, one thing is clear; Auba surely has some disciplinary issues that needs addressing considering he gets paid so much compared to the rest of the team. To whom much is given, much is required.

I remain one of the Auba's biggest stan particulars for his goal scoring abilities, but I don't Stan nonsense behavior like this one from Auba.

Absolutely.

One edge Arteta has is that he is a disciplinarian. This he must be commended for rather than being attacked. He was captain of this club and is in a position to discipline whoever plays here.

We do not have the full details of what transpired (going to France to visit mum, or going to Barcelona to get a tattoo) but one thing is sure he missed training and violated COVID-19 rules. He is the captain and highest earner and should live by example. His current form should even worry him/us more than being axed.

Jodera:
Lol...
Boss but I thought decision making as a player is different from decision making as a coach na

I for say...

Jodera:
Lol... If you notice before, Arteta was always adamant that Pepe will come good but now he doesn't even talk pim about Pepe again. Baba have tried for him.

20 private sessions??
Nahh... Pepe no try

E be like say you miss Kokane's quote...

Your wife is being blackmailed. Tell her to confess to you whatever it is she's holding back. Then forgive her as the case may be.

Finally, take leadership of your home. Let even your parents know you are in charge talkless of your in-laws.

Auba have been having a bad spell on the pitch and just worsened things up with indiscipline and immaturity. At a time when he should be focused on getting back to form. My joy is Jan is around the corner. We should just replace him because Laca cannot provide the scoring touch we need for our top 9.

Arteta just have to give more responsibilities to Martinelli and Nketiah and send Balogun on loan. Martinelli should start competing for that LW with ESR. He needs to improve on his defensive work.

germaphobe:
A fit xhaka won't stay on the bench while lokonga plays. try to understand that this guy is flop for sure but who can do better in that middle than him in arsenal?. AMN?, coach no even trust am, elneny that one doesn't deserve to wear the shirt.

Xhaka is the most trusted midfielder in the club today. Many people don't see what he brings, they are watching activity instead of productivity. It was the same with Ramsey. They are not the best in the league but they are the best we have.

BlueRayDick:
I read somewhere online that Auba was axed cos he travelled to Barcelona to get a tattoo a day before a match and he had to miss training . If this is true , then I’m disappointed in Auba for acting like a typical African player that will see small money and start misbehaving .

Whatever the case may be , I sincerely hope the club is making serious plans to replace both Auba and Lacazette with two deadly strikers ...... As it stands I would want none of them at the Emirates next season

Aubameyang has just done us a huge favour. Now we can expect he new striker in Jan.

Oasis007:



Dem don quarantine una here? See as the thread be like Cemetery. It was bubbling some few weeks ago, cos of few defeats una desert the Thread.

Una want kill am again? To dey reborn no tire una? Make una show face jhoor.

May Bayern be your portion.

I'd rather pay a private tutor than give money to schools just for show off only for them to damage my kids.

Ten Haag...

I only see a frustrated man. Drown alone. No one is going down with you.

50pseamer

You are in a psychological battle with your wife and both of you are losing. You're both losing because you failed to provide leadership.

Take responsibility of what happens in your house and let her be your assistant. She's leading and your are following.

She is dying for your leadership not followership.

Take charge. Assign duties and chores. Do yours and make sure she does hers. Give her bills to pay sometimes. Take the larger chunk but make sure she does hers.

As for the kitchen issue, if it is what you have delegated to her, then let her be responsible but she must also take instructuons from you as her leader.

She should be the one asking you if she should permit your mum to use the kitchen and not the other way around.

As for church, instruct her to follow you to church. She can attend hers after or before that.

Take the lead and both of you will be happy.

Nezzjnr:
Here we go, Arsenal has made the First Contact with Ole and Carrick.

Fabrizio Romano

This man should be my successor...

Nezzjnr:
It's just so sad that I'm seeing my Fellow Gunners insulting Arteta over this match. Good thing doesn't come easy... There's always light at the end of the Tunnel.


This Man really knows what he's doing, I mean we were able to score and hold the game till the 79th minute... That's something worth celebrating... Next game I hope we extend the time before our opponent scores.

Give Arteta time and see how we'll turn out few years from now... Trust the process.

Goodnight and God bless you all..

You are mad

RhuzBhee:
But i already saved the channels after the blind scan, or is there anyother way of saving it?

Your memory may be full. Delete some irrelevant channels.

How much please.

RhuzBhee:
Hi guys, anytime i switch on my decoder (4954) there'll be no signal at all, until i perform a blind scan.
Isn't it supposed to scan the channels itself once i switch it on?.... Any solution to that?

Save the scanned channels before exiting.

daveP:
An Alexis
A Ramsey

Is that confusing to you as simple as it looks?

The last two bold and talented players Arsenal had were these two. Thus getting something in their mould is a good precise wish, if not better, which we know for now is not possible until UCL football returns.

Probably you were among the few of us who saw the usefulness of Ramsey but if you were here when Ramsey was still with us, you will understand my confusion. That was the same way they murdered Giroud without appreciating the contributions they bring to the team.

daveP:
Arsenal are 7th with -3


If i were Arteta, I'll be planning how to make it a goal fest against Everton. That GD needs change to +

But, its Arteta!!

It is Arteta!

Make DCL no kon use that match to sharpen CV.

We should easily dominate that Midfield and a Midfield should also be on the scoresheets as well.


Fred scoring and Partey isn't

I think the problem with our play in recent times especially against big teams is that they quickly tend to sit back and draw pressure.

Earlier in our winning runs, we were playing a high defensive line and it was working especially against Spurs. I don't know why/ or where they picked this idea of sitting deep. We have two CBs that are quite fast and could easily cover space. After all that's why White and Gabriel are holding the CB positions.

I hope that in the Everton game they will change this. We are always better of when on the front foot.

daveP:
Henry meant that its shameful subbing off the origin of ginger. A captain can be subbed off when he's done a great job and thats the norm. So subbing off a captain is indirectly a testament to how poor things have been which Arteta isn't ready to notice right now.

If he isn't inspiring enough, snatch off the armband off him and put in on someone that will ginger the team.


I think we are the only 3rd team in EPL that has their attacker as Captain. Most are defenders and Midfielders. Just saying.


Whatever angle is read, Henry is right. He's more or less the spokesman for the Trio of himself, Vierra, and Bergie. Those guys hang out often.


Pires on the other hand is wrong. But Arsenal still need defenders. If any of two CBs injure, hope you know we got no exact replacement?


Tactical, we need the tip of a diamond middle cos its lacking. So defenders can wait for now. The Alexis is needed. If he is going to be the peak of our attack danger, i don't mind. Emirates need an Alexis again.


An Alexis and Ramsey.

Una dey call Ramsey self. Imagine the Ramsey everybody dey roast except me. It's that same Ramsey you are begging for.

Chai! Very soon na Giroud.

Jodera:
The target before the start of the season is to get back to UCL, especially as we have no European commitment this season.

So because we're 19th in big chance created now means we can't improve or it suddenly means we're so bad?. Leeds, Burnley and Newcastle are higher up the table than us on that, I guess they've better players than us? Na wa to you oo

Top 4 is first to 4th, but there are a lot of teams vying for that 4th position. We all know that 1st-3rd is on lockdown leaving that 4th spot up for grabs only. I don't know how you'll say we shouldn't compete for the 4th spot with Leicester, man u, west Ham and Tottenham. Na wa oo

Let us keep lowering the bar you hear, in no distant time na relegation go be our realistic target.

The two bolded are contradictory statements.

In the first you gave up 3 positions because in your mind you think it's now impossible for us to finish 1st to 3rd. You will say you're being realistic right?

Then suddenly, in the second you accuse me of lowering the bar, because I simply want to be realistic.

LoL


A classic case of flip flop.

Jodera:
To be honest, as germa.phobe said, someone who's target in top4 will be more serious than someone who's target is top 6. I remember during Wenger's time, once we're first or 2nd, even if we lose the next three matches, the players wouldn't be bothered cos they're within the top 4 range, immediately they know their top 4 is in danger, they don't mind winning anybody even if you bring barca at camp nou. That's how ambitious they cherish top4. If this players target top6, even if top 4 dey up for grabs, they wouldn't be ambitious to grab the spot, as long as they're not below 5th or 6th.

And one thing I know is that this squad is okay to target for top4 not top6. Yes, we might not get top 4, but that doesn't mean it isn't realistic for this squad to compete for top 4. Aside our back 5, the midfield and attack have been together for more than a year, and it's not as if the back 5 are a kind of shambles sef

What was the target before the start of the season?

Well, yours may be different but officially it was to get back to Europe which is a top 6 target. Whether we eventually win the league or not becomes an added bonus.

By the way which squad is good enough for top4? The one you just posted up there that is 19th in creativity and needs more attackers?

Stay straight. Don't be gay man.

Just to mention, I find it funny how you guys can't get the actual meaning of top 4 or whatever. For clarification, it means from 1st to 4th or as the case may be. Does not necessarily mean 4th or below. Na wa o.

Roland17:
Nwanne, I no respond to your recent mentions about your Scam for a reason. E get bus stop wen I dey wait for two of una with stone, una bus neva reach there yet.

I just feel I have a stake in him. Na just say I campaign for am when he was at City.
I would surely abandon him before he gets where you will stone us. I know say him go reach there one day. IT student nor be employee.

germaphobe:
the zeal and determination of someone who wants to make top 6 can never be same with someone who wants to make top 4 not to talk of someone who wants to win the league. you sound like someone who have never been in a competition(which i know and believe you've actually been in and conquered). arsenal needs ucl now more than ever. you as an independent plastic fan(sorry for the hard words) cannot say our target is top 6 when the coaching crew, board and owners have made it clear that getting back to ucl is the target.

You don't understand what target means or what 'at least' implies. I am sorry I don't have the time to keep explaining one thing over and over again. I can't be held responsible for your lack of comprehension. I am not your teacher. Sorry for the hard words.
