The next manager..

[Mac76]

This actually be a smart hire.

Arteta actually knows this club and all the real problems that comes with this club. He knows most of these players, particularly our young players.

And more importantly he knows English Football. I'm all for him.

does he?

it's been a while since he's been here and i'm not sure how much he had to do with the academy?

The prodigal son is coming home.

And his first match in charge could be Everton on Saturday would be fun (I hope)

Yep! Why not? Everyone has to start somewhere.
We went for "tried and tested" in Emery and he was dog shit.
At least give him a chance.

Emery wasn't tried and test, he'd managed yes, but if you analysed his career properly he wasn't a great manager.

I'd be very very disappointed if he was appointed and frankly I'm amazed at how easily some Arsenal fans are pleased, maybe this is part of the problem over the years, the club can do whatever and the fans are happy. Merson and Campbell both don't think he's the right man and they're not the only ones, he's never managed and if anyone thinks Arsenal have done their homework and know something other clubs don't, then they don't know Arsenal.

He's cheap, won't demand a big transfer budget and being his 1st job will accept what he gets, another yes man no doubt as the club were clearly too scared to employ a top manager who would have certain demands

Against Ancelotti by the looks of it.

Arteta would be quite an intriguing appointment but I suppose we’ll just have to take the stories about him potentially being great on good faith.

Think the job is too big for him personally but hope to be proven wrong.

Well he's agreed in principle to become Everton manager... (propably hoping someone else wants him before signing).

They use to say that about Steve Mclaren.

The only people who think Arteta will be good are Wenger, who let's face it is clueless and Guardiola who is his pal, what else can he say, not he'll be rubbish.

Merson and Kevin Campbell both think he's the wrong appointment on Sky and they're not the only ones.

There is no other big club in the world that would make this kind of appointment, never mind if they were in the state we're in, but history tells us that the people in charge really don't know what they're doing and haven't for a very long time, it's not like we have guys with a proven track record, we've got a record of failure.

Got to love it, Everton get Ancelotti a proven manager who's won leagues and the champions league, Arsenal get a guy who has never managed, is it any wonder this is becoming a joke of a club?

That's going to go well...
