Well, there's nowhere to go when trying to dispute something so far off the rails. Okay, Arteta out and the first hint at a title challenge in decades is a clear indicator of decline. You made your point and I accept it and am moving on.

    No I’m saying the factors that are responsible for us mounting a title challenge are not those which have been brought about by Arteta. Am I meant to give him credit for actually playing Saka and Martinelli, I suppose maybe I should because the guy is such a complete maniac it’s not something I would put past him to drop them both, like with playing Zinchenko when Tierney is clearly our best full back.

    We finished 2nd despite Arteta, and it’s possible that we might have won if not for him. This team is not going to finish 2nd and I doubt will finish top 4. The only crumb of comfort I can take from that is Arteta will be gone. If somehow the most unlikeliest thing occurs and we finish as champions, I will recant what I’ve said maybe I’ll become a believer because believing in miracles is essentially making the absurdly impossible possible.

    You've got ADS and TDS. I used to have WDS but I got over it.

    And why would you recant anything if they win the title? Same argument you are making now would still apply, wouldn't it? They won it despite Arteta?

    This must feel like arguing with yourself in a mirror

    I actually don’t mind people saying my opinions on Arteta are bollocks, they are out there…I’m frustrated because when it’s clear we can actually spend money now, it’s not being spent well. But when someone says I don’t watch us play but I know you’re wrong…I just think GTFO. ADS is probably not far wrong to be honest, guy does drive me up the wall.

    Our silly transfer Tsars are at it again.

    It seems we have agreed to sell Balogun to Chelsea for £50m.... for any other club that would be acceptable but for Chelsea the the least the idiots could have done is recoup the £65m on the EPL
    failure that is Havertz.

    It so easy, Chelsea is desperate for a striker and none are available, were we desperate for Havertz who ticks no boxes? Man the way we do things is annoying.

    If you're referring to me, the word in bold is a straw man.

    Not seen anything remotely suggesting this, understanding I have is that Chelsea have offered 45 million and we are telling them 70 minimum. And that if we do sell Balogun for 50million it will be to Monaco
