If winning the treble is failure then I hope we fail this season

I realised a while ago that we are in a time frame where people have become so used to exaggerating everything for a laugh that they started to behave like the exaggeration is the norm.

Instead of accepting an alternative argument, people tend to now add more bullshit onto their own point of view to rationalise and maintain that they are right / everything is as they see it (refer to trump supporters / evangelicals / most spurs fans).



:clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

f***ing nail on the head right there, and this happens in all parts of life with some people. It's so frustrating!!


Yeah.

In Unai's defense, Pep didn't win the UCL with Bayern and hasn't won it with City. Last season, Monaco knocked City out. This season it was Liverpool. PSG were knocked out by Barca and Real.

Wenger was speaking about this in his interview. He said something like if you base everything on winning the UCL and deem everything else as a failure, it's never going to be enough. When winning a domestic quadruple isn't enough, you know you're in an impossible job.

Settle down.

These mushroom clubs like PSG, City, and Chelsea especially suffer from this complex. For Chelsea too, the UCL was everything. It was an obsession. Same for PSG today. City seem to be sane in that department. They want to win it but they're not going full mental like PSG are and Chelsea did for a while.

Let's look at the UCL winning managers from 10/11 season:

- Pep
- di Matteo
- Heynckes
- Ancelotti
- Enrique
- Zidane

Where's Allegri and Simeone there? It's not a very impressive list.

Winning the CL has all to do with the squad, not the manager. In the modern era, Benitez won it with peak Gerrard, Carragher and Hyypia. Fergie only won it with Ronaldo, peak Rooney, peak Tevez, Evra and Scholes all in the squad.

The focus/defocus is irritating but more importantly, shows a wanna-be.

This isn't the only time. The camera person did it in Emery's welcome video too.

The person can't even use rack focus properly... What kind of people are we hiring?

Yep. Point is you shouldn't notice the cameraman. My mate is a tv producer and he'd fire this guy on the spot.

Might be half the problem, the players must feel like their on a spar holiday.

Anyway, bloody hell you can tell we haven't had a new manager in 22 years, AFC are treating this like the birth of Christ.

Do other clubs do this much media when they get a new manager? I wouldn't know I've only experienced it once and that was in an age where the internet didn't exist.

Given that they're obviously 7 years old holding a camera for the first time we would be firing them right at their peak!

arsenal is like a slut that decides she needs a beta provider cuck for stability for some time, to get back on her feet. ue even has a cuck face. boring mr pragmatic bitchboi will be useful, but should be sacked once he's put the club on the right track for the next guy to take it to the next level. by then arsenal will be itching for a real man, mentally and physically. ue can stay 2 years (though I'd prefer 1 with announcement early lol, but it'll prob take more time than that to make the changes) and gtfo. he just seems so annoying, weasely and forgettable, I literally had already forgotten him completely and never imagined such appointment
