This is what I also disagree with. It's not hard to understand what he does, it's a question of how effective it is. The hat trick he scored against Ludogorets, his game against Napoli in his first season....if we were showing that sort of form week in week out which would you say is more effective?
No. Quite obviously we've seen better football at Arsenal, in fact possibly the best football ever seen anywhere (in terms of sheer entertainment at least).

However. We now have 2 pieces of a puzzle that clearly has the potential to deliver special football. Or say 6 pieces if you roll Kos, Cech, Bellerin and maybe Xhaka into that mix. Santi is on the way out. Theo is Theo. Ramsey seems determined to avoid hi potential. Wilshere is probably done now. So 6 pieces. We need 8-10 more. They don't have to all be multi-billion quid superstars, but they need to be a step up from what we have. An ambitious manager with a football focused board could do special things at this club, the sort of thing the other lot can't replicate with a limitless chequebook.
