He was looking on the right path the last few months of last season.
Very very poor this season. I gave up on him a few weeks ago. I want our whole central midfield replaced.

Players like Xhaka and Ramsey could thrive with a mad manager like Simeone.
They both have abilities, but aren't using them well enough. A tough manager would kick their asses, to get the best out of them. Wenger is too soft.

There are Arsenal fans defending him and saying he did nothing wrong lol

What did he do right though?

i think he did nothing really. a welbeck-esque performance. didnt enhance or performance or make it worse

that being said, immediately better than some of our players today who were just f***ing rubbish

I feel either i watch different matches or my hatred is clouding my judgement. But el nenny is better than him. He only plays because of his price. Or am I crazy? I feel the 2 players are judged completely different

We don't have a top quality CM (after Santi). And, I do believe that Elneny is a better fit at Arsenal, but he didn't cost £30-35m like Xhaka did. Plus, we know how stubborn and need-blind Wenger is.

How tf is he criticisable today

He’s been rubbish all season but nowhere near responsible for the dog performance we put in going forward

Giroud Alexis & iwobi were the worst players on the pitch by some distance

Alexis probably saw a West Ham fan bring a dog on the pitch the beastiality love cuntbag

The 35m we wasted on him means there is no debate to be had.

Its a good point, Money spent wise there can be no debate indeed but Arteta and Welbeck, the other contenders for that role were and are so bad they cant be totally left out of the discussion.
