Yeah, It's much easier to just want unrealistic things and act surprised when they don't come true. As long as you're negative and shitting on the club you can pretend you're smart and above everyone else.
What I want is to let Arteta build up this new generation into a side that can bring us back regular CL football and eventually challenge for the title. As long as he's making progress (top 6 is better than top 8) there is no reason to derail his project.
What you want is for the club to be reactionary like the fans, sack Arteta and waste 70 mil on some striker who doesn't even fit us, then cry when he ends up being deadwood like Pepe.
Suddenly the club is back in turmoil, we're back to midtable and you have to get rid of the entire coaching staff + disillusioned players, and the new manager has an entirely different philosophy and player type in mind so you're starting back from scratch. There's absolutely zero sense of direction, everyone is out of confidence, and we end up sliding even further.
We have the youngest squad in the league and ever since Auba has been dropped we've been the better side in almost every single game. The results have been shit but the team is filled with test tube babies and we lack a natural finisher. Get over yourself and your need for instant gratification and let's see where this project goes.

No no, a draw away to Burnley is a good result for Arsenal.

What?
You're comparing Wenger, a 70 year old with a team in decline who had 20+ years at this club and 10 years of experience before it, to Arteta, a compete rookie with only one full season under his belt?
Are you high?

You must have just started following the club. Probably missed the decade where we tried exactly what you’re suggesting and failed. You see sunshine you don’t get five years to build a title winning team. Why? Cause the world doesn’t stand still letting you do it. Our young players will get poached with offers from clubs that are ready to win today.
