    Arteta's ability as a player at any club and how good he was for us are completely irrelevant to how good he would be for us or any other club as a manager.
    My issue with him being appointed as a manager is...well, he has no experience as a manager.
    It's crazy to even think about appointing him to a club at our level (and I hope no-one questions what our level is, what's with all the self-harm amongst Arsenal fans, we're a massive club)

    yeah arteta would have been barmy, but the more and more I hear and read about emery. the more exciting it is. I am genuinely looking forward to the new season and how things go. although wouldn't be surprised if we start with city away then Liverpool home.

    we are a massive club, third biggest in England.

I'm not saying he was the best we ever had, I'm saying the fans making up shit about him now are having to defend their toy throwing when they thought he was favourite for the manager's role, rather than telling it like it was.
    He wasn’t terrible nor was he really that effective either, I wouldn’t say he elevated our game in any way. He was also injured for his final 2 years as well so we only have 3 seasons to go off. He suffered from the same issues of being easily overrun and passive, much like our current crop of midfielders. I think he was a middle of the road player that typified the kind of signings we were making at the time.

    Having said that, I don’t think his playing career has any relevance to what he’d be like as a manager.

    Anyway, Emery is the man. Arteta is a City cunt so fuck him.

    Spot on, he was average and made no difference to the team and we never really saw his influence anywhere. Doens't ean he wouldn't make a good manager, but there's no evidence he would make a good manager either, other than it being a punt. On that basis if you're going for someone with no expecrience, you may as well pick one of your legends to manage because there's zero difference between him nd one of them other than the fact they maybe would command more respect (and Vieria is managing at least)

    Wonder why the club haven't announced it yet, why wouldn't they just get it out of the way so we can get going.
