Unai Emery - Confirmed as the New Arsenal Manager - ORNSTEINNNN

[Niall_Quinn]

Has anyone seen a single quote from the club or anyone directly connected to the club?

So the idea here is the Sun has an inside track. Odd then. The presentation was two weeks ago, allegedly, but only in the last 24 hours have the ITKs alerted us. Meanwhile they've been pushing Arteta as the frontrunner. Either this or their earlier stuff is total bullshit then.

It's both. Everything they say is bullshit.

Also this is the same guy who had Draxler and Di Maria rotting on the bench all season because he was too much off a coward to have a proper rotation system. Because he didn't want to upset Neymar and Mbappe.

Jeez this club just keeps getting more embarrassing

Or maybe Neymar and Mbappe are just better players and he didn't want to not play them?

[Niall_Quinn]

Well he won't have similar problems here. He'll have to settle for rotating Jack, Iwobi and Welbz.

Could be that now that Emery is public knowledge another club source was prepared to leak more information to The Sun NQ.


Anyway if that story is true I'm actually feeling a lot better - the guy clearly has done his homework and is very meticulous & organised. Maybe this will work out after all though it's one thing having a plan and another thing actually implementing it.

Still worried about his defensive record though.

Even if true, it would mean they were pulling the Arteta frontrunner stuff out of their arses. Because who would have been leaking that to them, given the gobsmacking nature of Emery's presentation?

Plus, it's the Sun.

Zero trophies of note though. The French league is a given. The Europa league is for clubs who can't cut it in the grown up tournament. This is the same situation as Wenger and the FA Cup. Big trophy? Second rate trophy? We know the answer.

But we'll give him a chance and see if he can step up his game to challenge the big teams.

Well we've just completely burned our bridges with Arteta. If he turns out to be the excellent coach everyone predicts he'll be, there's no way he's ever coming here again in the future.

Really handled this poorly and I hope Ivan is smart enough not to let "potential fan backlash" influence his decision making at all.

[Cripps]

That's great news. I was hoping he'd be annoyed and we'd burnt bridges with him.

I don't want his mediocre arse anywhere near the club. Just hope someone else appoints him as manager so that ship sails.

To think we were willing to give his mediocre arse £4m a year
