Don't be so sure.
Top-4 finishes, sans a title challenge, would keep Arteta safe as long as he achieves that.
The best aspect would be Arteta turning out to be the best thing since sliced bread. The in-between would be Arteta finishing out of the top-4, with no trophies. The worst would be Arteta consistently finishing 4th without trophies or title challenges.
The first scenario is the dream. The second scenario would warrant his dismissal. The third would leave fans disgruntled and the board elated. The status quo would remain, so would Mik Aurtiola.
You said it better than I ever could have. History shows that any Football related goals are secondary under the current regime. Arteta, if he is hired, just further proves this
