I don't think we are emarrassed, we acknowledge that he was a good signing and is doing well.

Its not "embarrass" most of them were warranted questions and more confusion at the time, no one thought he was going to replace Leno, that was the main issue.
£30m for a back up keeper was what was derided, what we know now is he's replaced Leno, so spending £30m on a first choice keeper isn't such a problem.
But I admit, he's performing above and beyond even what I thought he was capable of.
He's been the best buy of the summer transfers, we're lucky to have him.

They were not warranted questions at all.
It was a ridiculous reaction based on zero knowledge of the player because some people wanted to slag off the club and manager.
It would be nice if it led to a new realisation that as fans we know almost f**k all about the fit and potential of players in a squad, but I fear not. We will continue to get the rubbish spouted about players as if we have a forum full of coaches and scouts.

You don't think spending £30m on a backup keeper doesn't raise questions?
Because that's what everyone thought was happening, we had no indication Leno was getting benched / hauled.
Your being unreasonable because you want to score points.
I remember the discussions and it wasn't about bashing Arteta (obviously a minority made some comments) more than it was questioning it as a business decision.
