For such a big dick, that’s an extremely weak stream power

Arteta forces players into his system rather than optimizing for their strengths, which leads to the need for constant small upgrades every transfer window. Despite nearly 40 signings, I still haven’t seen him elevate any players to a higher level. Many of his signings—like Ramsdale, Jesus, Zinchenko, Tomiyasu, Vieira, Kiwior, and Jorginho—end up as deadwood within just a season or two. Arsenal can’t compete with City using this approach, especially when they’re only able to bring in second-tier players compared to City’s.
They also tend to complain when conditions aren’t perfect, but in reality, perfection is impossible. They’ve had a nearly full starting eleven fit for two consecutive seasons, while in 2018-19, if I’m not mistaken, the only time we had a complete first eleven together was in the Champions League final.

He’s not going to get sacked but if he does, Still means that ETH’s been a better manager than him in terms of trophies.

That is the foundation gone now that Lego Head depended upon… Not been announced yet, whether it is imminent, or the end of the season… Either way, not the best news for Arteta

This is big. We know how difficult it is to replace a key figure in that position. Credit to Forest, though.

I really hope Arteta is the driving force behind this and is taking on more responsibility himself.

I know we make lots of fun of Arsenal at the moment (especially me) but I’m pretty sure last season at a later stage of the season their gap to top spot was even bigger than now and they still managed to get back.
Fully expect them to finish the year strong. That’s why I hope they get beaten by Chelsea on Sunday.
Never a doubt to me that Ödegaard is their most important player - they’ve been missing him badly. Quality player.

Nar they were always up there. Amazingly Spurs were still leading the league after 10 games last year, but Arsenal were only a point back, ahead of City on GD and ahead of us by 1

You sure? Maybe it was the season before.
Still, don’t expect them to be out of a title race after new year.

They lost again. Shame. I cant believe how much the premier league is working them against them.

I can’t.
Ouch…
Anyone feeling pissed that we lost 2 points against these scum.
2nd hardest game of the season, so no, no at all really.
If there’s one that will annoy down the track this season, it will be Forest at Anfield - but don’t worry, we will lose another match at some point and heads will fall off.

They are a good side going through a difficult patch. During that patch, they have still managed to win at the Emirates, except against LFC. So, no, not really, especially because City is also struggling.

Yeah , and this was the match which really started their downturn in terms of results too.
Go cry some more…

I mean, I could see where he’s coming from, but the going down to 10 men was entirely self-inflicted.

Well if you told your players to not be snide cheating cunts, then maybe you would be getting them sent off so often

Yup, two they deserved. One they were unfortunate. He moans like all three were unjust.
One prevented an opportunity on goal what does he expect? Ain’t at Man City now.
