Are we all back in love with Mickey now we are back in 4th place?
No love yet but if he can finish 4th without a decent striker then fair play.
I think if we beat West Ham this weekend we’ve got one hand on the 4th place cup. Football isn’t played on paper (as our 3 consecutive defeats show) but the next game week sees us play Leeds at home while Spurs are at Anfield. We could be in an extremely strong position before the NLD.
West Ham would be a huge 3 points if we can get them.
Yeah Sundays game is massive. A win at West Ham would be huge.
West Han coming off their biggest game in years should hopefully work in our favour.
If you don’t send this signature to ten people, you will become a Spurs fan.
There is a clear difference between what we had when Wenger left and what we have now.
Teams around us change as we do, therefore
Looking at where we are now (statistically) makes fuck all difference and has no relevance.
All you can do is look at the team and judge whether or not the deficiencies that plagued us have been improved on (not vamquished) and whether the manager has had support (financially and unilaterally) to make best of what he can.
For me, he has given the team a shape, removed many of the rotten parts, and seemingly garnered support from his players from within.
If you look at the table, you’re looking at Guardiola, Klopp, Tuchel, Arteta, Cunte as the top five managers of the top five teams. Would you take any of those underneath? And I mean seriously? And at leat two of the managers in that top five have had inexhaustible wealth chucked at the team.
For me, Klopp is in a league of his own. Elsewhere, you will find it hard to get a manager who will compete with their nouse AND financial backing.
We can be so sanctimonious and privileged at times. I for one am just happy we have a team that wants to win, even if they dont.

It's better to burn out, than to fade away.
Ps. I’m not in the manager swap club unless its absolutely necessary. Just look at the spuffs and what they’ve benefited from it. Emery was not the right person, and never should have been put in charge.

One thing you have to give Arteta is that he’s got everyone playing for him and he’s also got the fans liking the team again. It shouldn’t be understated just how big the disconnect was and had been for years even going back to Wenger’s final seasons.
We had too many players here on inflated deals using Arsenal as easy street. Thankfully that’s in the process of changing with more stringent recruitment and standards.
