Oh of course it doesn't fit with your increasingly-obviously flawed personality assessment of Arteta, so it must not be true :rolleyes:

And your assessment is, Xhaka is shit…therefore the only reason to play Xhaka is he is fellating Arteta.
Where as mine is based on what players themselves say about Arteta. Arteta routinely blanks players for no reason, it’s got nothing to do with how agreeable they’ve been. Saliba hadn’t even said a word to him and they didn’t talk for two weeks. For a normal human being you would assume you’d done something wrong.
Arteta doesn’t respond to criticism of him, someone with self esteem issues has to respond, immediately become defensive and attacking the other person. Arteta doesn’t care, and not because he’s cool, self-reflective and levelled.
It’s almost borderline Schizoid. Despite your claims to the contrary I only watched All or Nothing once, over a year ago and was appalled by what I saw.
I would be open to the idea that Arteta can’t deal with people that express independent thought or aren’t acquiescent. I thought it myself definitely, but the evidence points away from it.
Brighton are interested in Lokonga.
Sorry I have seen the same rumours too, but whilst obviously they signed James Milner. On the whole the people who run Brighton are clever football people
25 million apart in our respective valuations for Balogun. I think given they paid almost 60 million for Labia, we are being generous at asking for 70 million for Balogun….should be nearer 90
Brighton are apparently interested in Lokonga as a replacement for Caicedo :wacko:
Yes seen this, that’s very silly of them. I felt a bit sorry for him in his first season, as felt like Arteta didn’t give him a chance and whilst he wasn’t spectacular he seemed ok. Last season? Bloody hell…..I think Arteta tried as hard as he could but when you can’t cope playing against Norwegian teams or Oxford United, you can’t hack it as a footballer.
Maybe they will get something out of him we couldn’t, but either his confidence is through the floor or he’s just no good.
