Just stating facts, objective and impartial observations of why we lost.


Was it a different Arteta who bought Havertz, chose today’s line up and tactics? Or is it a case of mistaken identity? I’m trying to understand at what point was Arteta involved in anything that happened today.

According to you, he appears to be an innocent bystander of this train wreck.

Wrong comp
Nah I'm saying, in LL we're finished Flick has been exposed. We started off strong but it is a what it is. Madrid has been showing cracks and if we sit Madrid down again it's gonna mess with them mentally.

Out of all th big 3 in LL, Atleti's been showing steady consistency, on and off the field so far you get me.

Listen, great teams have an inevitability.

Fergie time
Klopp and Liverpool
Pep and city
Even the Invincibles era.

I don't go into games with these Arteta led squads EXPECTING Arsenal to win, no matter how shytty the team we play against is.

We capitulate under pressure more often than we shine through it.

When we find a coach to teach us how to shine under pressure we will be champions, but it isn't Arteta.

The faster we move past him the better for the club. That is, if trophies are our goal and not top 4s.

Losing to this man united team at home is a fireable offense

Yeah, Arteta's Arsenal rarely has luck go their way. I think a lot of it has to do with his style. We rarely counterattack and that's a decent way to have things go your way. He wants to go with control, but once you lose grip then everything implodes. We don't really have players that are just going to say F everything and lets get a goal. The only guys I can somewhat think of are Saka, Gabriel, and Trossard before he became washed. I think that's the major issue with this team becuase when you have to depend on Odegaard, Martinelli, Havertz and others to create those moments. That is most likely not going to happen with those guys because they're ultimate confidece guys and they're useless when they don't have any.


Anyway, if this match didn't send the board a message, then nothing will. If I was running things I would call Kroenke to give us the funds to activate Osimhen release clause or something because we might not even get a UCL spot with no saka and current squad
