Club is eating itself.

Failed to back Xhaka after he was being abused last season
Embracing AFTV/Celebrity fans
Farcical Captaincy Vote
Dull Performances
Club Starting Wars with it's own Players (Ramsey, Ozil, Koscielny)

Remember, the transfer/recruitment team were actively trying to sell Xhaka in the summer. Emery is the one who’s doubled down and continued to pick him and make him captain. It’s obvious that not everyone is aligned.

yeah but abusing the players like this helps no one.

Players get stick. As much I don’t agree with it, it’s a part of football and in Xhaka’s case, it’s warranted. Considering his price tag, he’s been one of Wenger’s worst purchases when looking at his performances. I blame this all on Emery because he has a history of losing the fans/players due to his squad choices. A good manager would dropped Xhaka after the Spurs game.

I don't get the fans that were offended by Xhaka's response. Dropping a few dollars entitles you to freely abuse a player without a response? If you're going to be disrespectful be ready to at least receive some in return.

Robbie's ordering a private jet within 6 months.

I think it will happen. The new regime are desperate and think short term.

Mourinho salary demands and transfer activity don't fit Arsenal. You guys have nothing to worry about.

Pepe really has no days off
