His in-game management has always been disaster class too. You don't take off Lacazette who was running on Cheetos, then bring on Eddie who plays in the same position, so they clog up the middle and negate each other. Waited too long for Pepe, then keep Ceballos on.

The Ozil thing is how you lose players and fans turn on the club.

Stars are stars and should be treated as such. I don't want to hear about work rate or defensive duties.



United winning. Arteta has no idea how to breakdown teams and United has better passers in midfield.

Have you seen Fred and McTominay pass the ball? :stopitslime:


Going to be a glorious shyt off next weekend. :francis:

Partey wasn't on the ball enough, Ceballos ignored him a lot and did absolutely nothing with the ball. I wish he could've drove with the ball. Lacazette's touch ruined a couple of counters. Aubameyang and Lacazette don't work well together. Aubameyang best ever season was when he was playing down the middle and getting fed by 2 wingers in Dortmund. We need an AM. Rogers nullified whatever we did first half and Arteta couldn't account for it. Xhaka is so indecisive, he only split the lines once, every other pass was a fail, dude needs to go, he's so dead. I think one of our biggest issues and has been our issue for a while, is chemistry and cohesion. It's been this way for like 2 years, lol.​

The big 6 being coached by fukking amateurs (except Klopp he accomplished his goals till now) . Making the premier league look like a sunday league.

I think the lack of crowds is helping the smaller clubs as players don't have the crushing pressure of the (sometimes significantly bigger) away crowd.

Old Trafford or Anfield are easier to go to without that 12th man..

It also means that some of the players who are used to a lot of fans find it hard to get as pumped up.

Thats Xhaka, for the money they spent, and the amount of games he's played.

Its him
we have a winning record with Xhaka.

Three managers trust him to play.

Mustafi comes in and turns out defense into a circus within 10 minutes. And Mustafi cost the same as Xhaka.
