I don’t really like how he cuts out loads of players as well
and then wants to go and spend huge fortunes on players, we have enough quality to do better than we are, I really think he’s had an unbelievably easy ride with earning the right to everything he’s been handed.
No we don't.
City, Chelsea, Liverpool, United all comfortably better squads. Stop being delusional.
We’ve had plenty of chances to pull away, in 4th places all our rivals have stuttered, plus they all have cup and European games.
The amount of games we’ve had to play we didn’t need a huge squad, problem is Arteta has cut out certain players, Aubameyang, Pepe, Saliba, even Guendouzi we could have used, on top of that we’ve loaned out Balogun and AMN two players we could have used this month.
Would rather see Balogun than Nketiah. We knew about the AFCON as well, no excuses for poor planning.
He’s made his choices and it’s come back to bite him, he seems to clash with too many players.
What choice has come back to bite him? All of those players you've mentioned are shit and not first team material.
Plus half of them are still here but simply don't deserve to play. Are you gonna bench Saka and Martinelli to play useless Aubameyang and Pepe? The only reason we found some form was that he kicked Auba out the team. Do you want to see us relegated?
Balogun and AMN have also shown nothing to suggest they deserve to play more.
I see what it is now. You're a bench worshipper. Whenever you see a player not getting minutes you start fantasizing that they're good.
Same story happened with people wanting Lokonga over Xhaka and now we're seeing him get exposed but don't worry, the moment Xhaka gets back into the first 11, people will start bench worshipping Lokonga again.
They could all have been useful during this period, our lack of options are due to poor planning, we knew about the AFCON and yet we have signed no one and also sent players out on loan that we could have used, Balogun would be a more unpredictable option than Nketiah who has shown he has zero impact, AMN could have given us an option instead of playing Lokonga who has struggled in midfield, if we’d had Saliba we could have played White in midfield perhaps, Guendouzi could have given us a more dynamic option.
As for Aubameyang, it’s clearly more to do with how we were setup and the teams we played as well, the period we were winning we played some really weak teams, right now we haven’t scored in 4 games so clearly it hasn’t had that much of an impact or we’d be scoring, how often have we gone 4 games without a goal?
As for Lokonga, I suspected he wouldn’t be ready from the PL, but we chose to sign him instead of signing a ready made player who could play and perform now, as for Xhaka we should have sold him last summer when we had the chance, he gets himself sent off and make mistakes which cost us goals regularly, he’s a liability and anyone who thinks he’s the answer and should be playing hasn’t payed attention for the last 6-7 years!
