What does he want? Someone like Xhaka who has a laugh and a joke with the opposition after a defeat? FFS.
I think that's a bit harsh. We will never know the full story, but it seems like Guendouzi's attitute was not what we want to see from a young player. From what we saw, he is no Saka Martinelli or ESR, but has an arrogance that these better players don't have.

Its not like he was ever more than a decent prospect when he played for us, and I don't have an issue with Arteta's approach to him.

Xhaka has been one of our best players since Xmas. Ozil was tried and rejected by 3 managers and is now playing for Fenerbahce.

Saliba was a cock up - but there isn't a single manager out there who hasn't made a mistake with certain players. I will wait to see whether Arteta is man enough to try to repair that relationship.

Willian is what I will beat our manager up for. Worst signing I can remember.
