Well, here we are, the last blog post of 2020. A really, really, really shitty year for everyone.
From a football perspective, we’ve had it all.
We picked up a young coach who arrested the rot that had set in under Unai.
That new coach changed a lot of things. We looked better structured on and off the ball. The players fought like dogs. We binned the melts. Arsenal were far more competitive against big clubs. We won another FA Cup, beating City and Chelsea on the way.
Off the pitch, we had a huge win. The disgusting leadership of Raul S, which a few of us relentlessly pursued, came to a very satisfying conclusion. He was binned after about a month of Tim Lewis joining the board. Good riddance.
That didn’t exactly make our summer, but at least it meant the incompetence could be blamed on actual bad judgment versus something more insidious.
Our transfer window was a bit of a mess because we had to work on compact timelines because of covid. Still, we managed to sign two really great players in Gabriel and Thomas Partey. We also managed to stay true to form by signing Willian on an outrageous deal from a grim super-agent. We did some good business on renewals, tying down Saka and Martinelli. We did some bad business, giving Luiz another deal. We did some ‘errrr… not sure’ work by keeping Auba tied to us until he’s 34.
Arteta the ‘rookie coach lucky to land the job’ at Arsenal was given a big promotion to rockstar manager. Edu was sat down in a fancy garden and told to tell the world he was happy that his relationship with him had gone from subordinate to equal.
Everything went to shit from there.
Arteta had a big hand in every shit decision we made over the summer. His non-negotiables became negotiable. The stars that promised to be with him ditched the project fast and hard. Form plummetted. The football became incoherent. All the discipline went in a storm of redcards. We went coach > manager > politician. It looked like the same end scene from the Emery era.
… but then Christmas brought a special gift: Light at the end of the tunnel.
We beat Chelsea by shifting some things around.
David Luiz and Willian were dropped for ‘sickness’ that wasn’t covid related.
Emile Smith Rowe was introduced with Gabriel and Saka to the front 4.
Lacazette finally found a role that suited his ailing physical traits.
The football sped up as the coaching handbrake loosened.
We moved to mid-table.
Now, the story is far from over. We could easily lose 2-0 to WBA on Jan 2. The blip could be the moment of serenity before a big Arteta induced football heart attack.
… but football is about hope.
January is a big opportunity for the club to right some wrongs.
Dani Ceballos might be moved on by Madrid. They don’t like that he’s not playing. Italy is seen as an option for him to land some game time. Good. He started a fight with Eddie and he was at fault for getting his nose smacked by David Luiz in a training ground ruck. He’s been shit. Cut him loose.
Kola might be finally heading back to Schalke. They hired in Christian Gross and want to kill the fans by subjecting them to the Bosnian knife fighter. Good luck to them.
I suspect Ben Knapper will be busy with other loan moves. Mustafi and Sokratis are both internationals of pedigree that could do a 5-month job at most places. Their wages are high, but not disgustingly so if you are club plugging a gap. Both need game time if they want the next move to be sexy. What will he do with Cal Chambers? Joe Willock? Reiss Nelson? Eddie Nkeitiah? William Saliba? Can any of them be used as bargaining chips for players we need?
No doubt there will be a lot of fumbling around to bring in a creative player. No one seems to like Isco. 95% of fans telling me he’s a fat ponce. A bit mean if I’m honest. The club want a piece of Julian Brandt, but I’d be shocked to see Dortmund move him in January. Jack Grealish has been all up in the Arsenal players gramz over the last week, clearly he is DESPERATE for the big move the North London, but be real people, the £75m we spent on Pepe is not coming back. A player like Jack is not going to end up in our squad, so stop dreaming. There’s talk about Sabitzer of RB. I really like the player, he always impresses me. He hit double figures for goals and assists last season, but my worry is that at 26, he’s a finished product. Shouldn’t we be looking for the next big thing after the learnings of this summer? Buendia has great numbers, but according to Tim Stillman, his attitude stinks, not sure we should be going there if that’s the case.
The good news is that we’re heading into the window a little calmer than we might have been. We’re not going to make a shocking error by panic signing Eriksen on a 5-year deal. I also think Arteta has gone to a very dark place over the decisions he made this summer… he has to know he fucked up very badly. I am sure he’ll not be begging Edu to sign anymore Kia bums, because he knows that at any other club, he’d be on the bonfire right now, looking at the next job at Bournemouth if he were lucky.
On a me, me, me note. The year was rough as a blogger! Traffic nose-dived. I had nothing to write about. BUT, I want to thank the loyalists who checked in regardless. You are the real heroes.
I also want to send my love to all the readers that were impacted by covid. The Arsenal should be escapist, I try and keep it upbeat here (or REALLY FUCKING INTENSE), but I am fully aware of the heartache this virus has caused. I know many of you have lost loved ones or suffered health problems personally. I truly wish you and your families all the best and hope to see you back to full fitness in the new year!
So we end the year on hope.
Hope that Arteta has grown up and can see what he needs to do to make it at the top with this basketcase club.
Hope that the club has finally seen the error of its ways and has the guts to pivot towards a better path.
Hope that we have some exceptional young players that will play out the rest of the season with passion and pride. #HaleEnders
Hope we’ll all be having a pint together at the start of next season as the vaccine is rolled out.
Thank you for reading and listening for another year. This site brings me so much joy. I cannot tell you how lucky I am to have such a rabid community of lunatics that come to chat football every day. It means the world that you spend your valuable time here and occasionally take the time out to call me a c*nt in the comments.
On that note, I’ll raise a glass to you, thanks for being awesome.
Stay safe tonight, be merry, and let’s have a much better 2021! xxx
P.S. I want to say a huge thanks to the heroes that have helped me create elite content this year. Matt, Alex, Aash, Johnny, Dom, Jonathan, Mike McDonald, Janan, Lee… THANK YOU.
Now listen to the podcast.

And
The
Tr4phy
The last Tr4phy of miserable 2020 is mine!
Sweet!!! 🙂
Happy New Year, Pedro!
And Happy New Year, my fellow grovers!
Missed the trophy
Happy New Year you filthy animals
From the previous post
Useroz
“If nothing else, Raul was right about one thing. When a contract enters the last 2 years, either it’s extended or the player gets sold. It’s an absolutely poor reflection on Vinai and his cohorts the way things are.No proper companies would tolerate even half of it …”
If you were a TD at any decent club, would you sanction the purchase of Kolasinac?
Useroz
Let’s put Martinelli and Saka up for sale.
I bet you even with their limited level of experience, we’d easily sell both for more than £100 million.
Some other players are a busted flesh. Either you rip their contracts and pay them off, send them on loan, or let them wind down their contacts, no one will buy them.
Live with it
We hope he has learnt. A vibrant team needs a prerequisite of young brave footballers mixed with reasonable professional heads. Sign up Balogun.
All the best, heres to a better 2021.
Happy new year Pedro and all you Grovers
4:20am here in Boston. Woke up after a curious dream, quick hobble over to the bathroom (tore my hammy running on Monday), back in bed…first click on the daily mail to see if the season had been put on hold. Second click Le-grove to check for the new blog…nada…clicked again and this post popped up on second refresh. Pedro, thx for staying on this throughout this fucked up crazy year. Thanks for the hope, the passion, the perspective and perspectives over the last year. Thanks for going deep—for going beyond the beautiful game to a rich narrative on culture, leadership,… Read more »
Happy new year all. Hopefully 2021 will be a lot better.
15th
Someone said to me on here I can’t remember who that passion and pride doesn’t exist in football nomore but it always will.
Happy New Year Grovers!
Here’s an idea: Why not call off Torreira’s loan and bring him back into the squad? Surely a midfield base of him and Partey would be pretty solid, and do a good job at making the transition from defence to offence?
Happy New Year! I look forward to furiously refreshing LG each morning (my time)
Good Riddance 2020, you sucked !
DM,
I would go along with that if funds are short.
Due to Lacazette’s goals in the last few weeks , the time is ripe to sell him.. Balogun is a younger version of Lacazette but with more pace and power. They both like playing with their back to goal and using the old Kenny Dalglish move of backing into the defender and twisting to get their shot away. Maybe just maybe, if Balogun sees that Arsenal are prepared to sell a top striker to open a gateway for an academy player , he may just have 2nd thoughts about leaving. My worry is that Arteta is of the notion that… Read more »
We should also look to buy Anguissa in the summer.
Especially if Fulham get relegated, we need someone comfortable on the ball in the middle of the pitch who can drive and take on players so desperately!
His work rate is high and he is good with moving the ball too.
He is seriously overlooked, he’s too good for Fulham and offers something we desperately lack.
And a happy new year to you Pedro !
If I was looking to bring in one player it would be Bissouma to play alongside Partey…that would be centre midfield sorted at long last.
I have been posting links on Bissouma for months now, he is EXACTLY what we need .
Brighton would not stand in his way if we went in for him…let’s do it before he is snapped up by a top 6 club.
Happy new year
“It means the world that you spend your valuable time here and occasionally take the time out to call me a c*nt in the comments.”
Think it’s a bit more than occasionally though…
Of the Cams we’ve been linked to Sabitzer would be the top pick followed by Buendia. Would still get a CM before a Cam. The Xhaka – Elneny abomination must be stopped at all cost!
Does anyone else find it strangely disconcerting that one of the worst managers in the history of Arsenal Football Club is now being hailed as it’s saviour on the strength of two results in just four days? Mind you, it’s reassuring that Pedro is now back on board Project Arteta after what can only be described as a momentary wobble. A Happy New Year to you all from rural Berkshire.
1st time respondent. Just to say thank you. I read LG everyday. Am ironed-on AFC…born Holloway Road. Season ticket holder but emigrated to Aust in 73. Been back many times. AFC is in the family blood. My nephews have seasons. I suffer with you all…more so perhaps having watched them since my first game in 1956. Thank the Lord for the internet. I get to watch (and suffer) through every game. Good on yer Pedro as they say down here in Adelaide. We live in hope….Arteta…the jury is out. My dream management team is Big Tone & DB10…There, that shows… Read more »
Pedro, Great content as always! You are the ultimate realist and I enjoy and respect the way you put forth your opinions. A refreshing read always in today’s times. Wish you all the very best in the upcoming year! Having said that, I’ll always blame you for the brouhaha surrounding Pepe. 😛 I hope you don’t forget how excited you were when we signed a shit player like Pepe (at the time). At the very least, we made half of that money back thanks to Iwobi 😛 Great calls on Wenger, Luiz and Willian so far. You were among the… Read more »
I love Berkshire pork, BFG and also Hampshire mutton, Left testicle
Agree with the notion that Balogun shouldn’t be allowed to leave. He looks like a real talent.
Dont want another Gnabry situation.
Pierre
Agree on Bissouma.
Hopefully we can get some players out the door.
Does Grealish have a release clause?
Pedro,
Many thanks for all your efforts and wishing all Le Grovers health, wealth and happiness in 2021 from the swamps of Jersey.
Smith Rowe v Brighton …quality footballer
https://youtu.be/hsE90CPkAGI
“Mikel Arteta has played down suggestions that Reiss Nelson might leave on loan in January, and revealed that the winger’s absence from recent match-day squads is due to fitness issues and nothing more.”
Nice post Pedro very warming.
Best wishes to everyone and good health to all
on the VERY BEST ARSENAL BLOG.
Onwards and upwards in regards to ARSENAL
AND LIFE.❤️
What an unforgettable year. For all the wrong reasons, really. But at least where Arsenal is concerned, we’re lucky to come to Le-Grove every day and maybe vent a little—or a lot, if we’re honest.
Thanks for another year Pedro.
Happy new year to all. The only way is up!
Sid,
Your taste in food is certainly unique.
But the burning gastronomic question is: why do you prefer the left testicle?
Rich
Grealish is probably out of our reach now I’m afraid.
Thank you Pedro for keeping us entertained amidst one of the worst years for mankind
Happy new year everyone
Blog of lube
To think we could have bought Grealish rather than Pepe. Oh well.
Rather than buys I’m looking forward to seeing the back of some of the dross we’ve been carrying for years. It’s probably more important than adding to the already bloated squad.
Happy New year to everyone.
Much as I’d like to agree with you around new signings, you seem to have forgotten this is Arsenal. This is the club that is almost world class in signing duffers. Remember Kim Kallstrom ( complete with broken back) Ozil after an early season defeat against Villa. Sanogo, hailed as the next new superstar. The list goes on. I would be happy if we shifted a few.
Happy new year to all gooners and hope you keep well.
Happy new Years in advance to all.
With their game in hand, Aston Villa has a real chance of getting into Europe via the league. They may even push to Champion’s League.
Under those circumstances why would Grealish an Aston Villa fan leaves them to Arsenal who despite the last two results may still get sucked into a relegation battle?
Time to be realistic and accept this Grealish ship has sailed.
I remember us spending £40,000 on Paddy Howard.
Happy new year Pedro and all the contributors, and happy new year to the fellow Le Grovers. Work has been super quiet due to the virus so this place has been a great sanctuary. Keep up the great work and hopefully 2021 will be a better year on the pitch and in life in general!!
What is it about Buendia’s attitude that could be problematic? I haven’t read or seen anything about that.
If he is spiky we could use more players like that, with fire in their bellies.
Pierre It does sound like he has a release clause, not sure if Villa would have left themselves open to a January raid though. But what’s the pointing in having a stinking rich owner, if he’s not willing to go and pillage and plunder the leagues most creative player, when it’s clear we’ve got a big problem carving open chances? If he has a release clause between £60-£80 million, that can be activated in January? We should absolutely go and tax him, and we should do it on the final day, leaving Villa no time to secure a replacement. Villa… Read more »
Let’s hope Basketcase Arteta does not drag the greatest Club with history into the dumps in 2021.
Hope Arteta corrects the flaws in his character , leaves them behind in 2020. Against his normal judgement he brought in ESR from his Bin filled with the like of Saliba , Balogun and lucky Reissue who is allowed to peak out for 10-20 minutes whenever a blue moon rises.
2021 will see same old Arteta toadie who curried favour with watch gift to Gazidas, or hopefully a Rangnick with a leash showing that Arteta can work under intelligent directions.
Been fun reading through your blog, tell you what, i feel more empty whenever i see no new update.
“Due to Lacazette’s goals in the last few weeks , the time is ripe to sell him. [and promote Flo].”
Yikes, I’m nodding along to Pierre’s content.
Pedro
A huge thank you to you for always churning out saucy posts for us to come and vent our frustrations here,2020 was indeed shit on all sides but we live to hope for a better 2021
To all the other grovers I say thank you for the analysis, argument, banter and trolling,a lot of times it has been so heated up but one thing brings all of us here and that’s ARSENAL
Again thank you all and wishing you a wonderful and a better 2021🤝🤝🤝
This bandwagon needs cooling down a bit, bright on are terrible and we’re awful, they wanted to get beat, we scored a goal and shit ourselves.
I loved the win, but its a stretch to say everything is now well in garden of eden, laca is still a liability and non elite
Early 2021 is huge for arteta
Sorry
..lucky Reiss Nelson ….fu autocorrect
Pedro
Thank you for your efforts to give us a medium to ventilate. Tell you …” the express yourself “ freedom you give has nurtured the greatest brainwaves. Many are novel, and intelligent. In fact Le Grove should be the mandatory reading to Arsenal management. Even Kroenke might turn up a positive owner.
Cheerio and wish Pedro and fellow Grovers a fantastic 2021
Arsenal’s priority in January should be to start offloading some of the players who are clearly surplus to requirements. That applies in particular to the players who are not registered squad players and those on the fringes who are likely to leave in the summer and are unlikely to get much game time. Personally I would not buy any players in the forthcoming transfer window apart from perhaps a second string goalkeeper, which is urgently needed. That does not mean that we cannot bring in on loan perhaps a midfield player. We are woefully thin on resources in that department,… Read more »
Thanks for a great blog and something I always look at first thing in the morning
Happy new year to all the nutters that still think Ozil is the saviour or want the manager out before he warms the seat and to all the others that “trust in the process ” lol
Let’s hope 2021 is better for everyone and we bring in what we need asap
Arteta saying today that the priority is offloading players not buying.
Pedro
Thanks for your end of year best wishes to one and all
Now to get to the gist of your piece, a fence-sitting exercise. ‘Awesome’ is not a word to apply to a great number of posters on here, not unless it means ‘impatient’ or ‘intolerant’ . They have made this a battle-ground, the enemy primarily yourself.
Giving ground to them is not the way.
Before we sign new players, we need to let go of some.
We have two internationals in Ozil and Sokratis that couldn’t make the squad. Any non home grown player we sign means we’ll have to remove another non home grown.
I agree with ES (shock horror) but January should be spent ripping out the squad and moving on those with 6 months left on their deals. If we can’t get a fee for them, we might as well save on their salaries.
Thanks to all the Le Grove team for all the posts and pods this year. Never a dull moment with this club! Here’s to a successful 2021 in which we storm up the table, win a trophy, hire a proper technical director, say goodbye to the bums and the wasters, make a few sensible signings, discover our very own Covid vaccine, and get a decent font for the back of the shirts.
COYG!
Grealish is not leaving his boyhood club that is in the top 5 to come to us Villa have massive investment and are spending well.
Gone are the days when we can take players from these clubs
England’s best I agree a lot of nutters on here that want to burn the house down as soon as there are a few issues
Happy New Year to you Pedro and to all you Grovers. Pedro – special thanks for keeping going despite the Pandemic, and For keeping the faith despite our sniping about the pandemic of lifeless Artetaball, which has hopefully mutated into something more vigorous and entertaining. Sid- thanks for all the free advice. Pierre and Valentin- thanks for the tactical insights. China – thanks for the early morning posts. Marc – thanks for keeping Pedro on the straight and narrow Bamford – Dariano was truly inspired! Who knows, your faith in the Norwegian Jesus may be rewarded in the afterlife. Jamie… Read more »
What a year it has been. Glad to be alive on the last day. Happy new year to Pedro and the posters here. Arteta is lucky to still be in the job. He’s lucky he has been giving a 2nd chance and I hope the board had learned their lessons finally. Ordinarily, I want Arteta replaced cos he made several terrible errors of judgement and does not really have what it takes as of yet to lead us to the next level. But I will support him cos it seems he will be returned to coach and answerable to Edu.… Read more »
Awwwwww
Pedrooo! You re not just ‘a’ c*nt!
You re ‘OUR’ c*nt!!
“England’s best I agree a lot of nutters on here that want to burn the house down as soon as there are a few issues“
“Few issues “ might entail a terrible league position, poor to unwatchable style of football on display, and deeply flawed transfer/contract strategy based on poor ( again) judgment.
Other than that things are progressing as planned.
Happy new year Pedro and all you Grovers!
Enjoy new year’s eve Pedro and the rest of mates here. Thank you for keeping us company and writing this blog every single day despite the challenging year.
COYG!
Many thanks to you, Pedro- you’re right, this year has been shitty for everyone to a varying degree. For me, I’ve found a lot more joy in my day to day doing the things that feel normal. Reading this blog everyday is among those things that feels normal and brings me joy. I enjoy reading your takes and of course the comments by all the familiar posters. In a way it feels like a bit of a family- and who doesn’t need family in trying times? Happy New years to all of you. And please, let’s not sign Isco on… Read more »
Today the Mail says we’re in for:
Roger Ibanez
Marcel Sabitzer
that’s in addition to the 3 they said yesterday……..
Diego Costa
Riqui Puig
Joan Jordan
I also wanted to point out since but didn’t have the time that Rodrigo De Paul is nowhere close to Brandt. I am all for Buendia too but Norwich are 5 points clear at the top of the championship and are rich. They don’t need to sell so even 35m might not be enough to sign him.
Our best shot even by summer could still be Brandt or Aouar and I’d go for Brandt.
Happy New Year, Pedro, and the rest of you miserable bunch! Wishing you and your families all the best in 2021. Hopefully the new year will bring back joy and smiles on everyone’s faces in addition to a much needed relief from Covid and all the shit and craziness that came with it. Stay healthy, and stay safe, everyone! I’ll raise a glass for all of you later tonight. Cheers!
Happy new year all.
Thanks to Pedro for keeping this place going! Even with all the abuse he gets from some posters.
2020 just wanted to say to it..FUCK OFF YOU BASTARD OF A YEAR AND take your bastard virus with you! Pedro you are a star. Your work and opinions often controversial are y i read each day. To you and all my fellow Grovers may 2021 bring renewed hope health n happiness to us all. Happy New year all
Big thanks to Pedro for keeping this blog alive in this trying time.
Hope everyone has a great 2021.
Fabrizio Romano @FabrizioRomano
Confirmed and set to be completed soon. Sead Kolasinac leaves Arsenal on loan to join Schalke until June.
One down! Keep going!
I agree, i dont think we should buy anybody in January. The priority must be to shift the poison and the useless. I think, if I could wave a magic wand, 14 players would be gone. Thats 14 out of 26, that is how bad we are. Its fucking horrific the amount of money we have wasted Lets face it, the last transfer window was a car crash, and I include in that, Partey. It was a terrible bit of business spending £45m on a 27 year old, who will be 29 with two years left on his contract. Do… Read more »
Unsure why we cannot move out players and bring some in at the same time? They are not mutually exclusive actions?
Kolasinac has gone, taken a pay cut to go there to boot.
So big clear out this January.
Why didn’t it happen in the summer.?
If some of the players are on big wages then why would they leave and get lower wages?
Arteta hasn’t got a clue
Great post Pedro. Here’s to 2021 being a great year in all respects. I don’t actually want to buy anyone unless they really are top class and with time to develop. Selling dross is more important and i agree with Pierre’s earlier comment – sell Laca whilst he is back on form to maximise value. Raisinf cash and stopping cash outflow is probably more important. Keep ESR, Ska and Gabi in the team – bring in AMN into midfield – give Balogun and Saliba game time and ffs lock in Balogun into a long term contract. Only buy when the… Read more »

Pedro Happy new year to you and what a bizarre year it’s been. I’m glad Arteta’s stopped the rot and I expect Arsenal to finish top half this season, if covid doesn’t postpone the whole thing of course. I was behind the Arteta appointment from the beginning, but my faith in him has been severely tested. He has the chance to turn it around and he could but his task is huge. The jury’s still out. What I find disheartening is the familiarity of arsenal’s curent situation: The wrong people in charge, more behing the scenes restructuring, the lack of… Read more »
Nice post Pedro. Best line: ‘We went coach > manager > politician. It looked like the same end scene from the Emery era.’ Once you get into politics you are on a slippery slope to sporting oblivion. Wenger’s last years at our club. Loss of focus what really matters. The fight and honesty on the pitch. This blog has been a bit of a saviour in the pandemic, even if we suffered together in disbelief what the club served us on weekly basis. Thank you Pedro and all the characters here in this space, it has been great spending time… Read more »
Happy New Year, Pedro, and to all fellow Arsenal fans wherever you are in the world.
Let’s hope the football God’s smile on us in 2021.
“Kola might be finally heading back to Schalke. They hired in Christian Gross and want to kill the fans by subjecting them to the Bosnian knife fighter. Good luck to them.”
Haha lmfao.
Arsenal and transfers…. madness. Have to think maybe only Barcelona have had a poorer run of form in ze market in past 5 years than Arsenal. Its mental.
Solid post Pedro! Thanks a lot for the space to be an arsenal fan the way you want to be.
Hope those Nye beers go down great! Happy new year to all the Grovers! 2021 has to be a better year on and off the pitch, surely!
Cheers my friends!!
Fanatik report that Fenerbahce have made their first official attempt to sign Sokratis Papastathopoulos. Arsenal are reportedly willing to let Sokratis leave for free.
Nelson
They should have helped Papsok leave in the summer. Arsenal was asking for an unattainable fee.
That man always gave his best and didn’t trouble anyone
Agreed Dissenter.
Poor decision from the club. Especially considering Arsenal are mean to be ‘classy’.
Feel for Sokratis.
Ødegaard collecting dust this season, i’ve a pretty good idea where he could get some serious game time and experience.
Loans only in the window , keep the kitty topped up as much as possible for a manager who knows what he’s doing . You can give him ten years and twenty transfer windows but anyone with half a brain can see arteta isn’t taking us anywhere. Just delusions and wishful thinking to hope otherwise. At any other club he’d be sacked , since when have we as fans have lower ambitions than the likes of Newcastle who do want their manager sacked when they are above us in the table . Pedro knows he’s wank but I get his… Read more »
Its official, Kola is leaving on loan.
Woab,
“But the burning gastronomic question is: why do you prefer the left testicle?”
Fucking lol 😂😂😂
Dissenter,
I said that same thing this summer. Sometimes you have to accept to take a loss in order not to make a bigger loss. Demanding a fee for Sokratis was dumb move.
Remember when Raul spend more than a month negotiating with Napoli about Ospina fee reduction and that the final reduction was less than his wage paid during that extra time.
if we know our dross players are shit then generally so does everyone else. Let’s just get real and get these players off the books. Salaries are often more than the fees anyway.
You guys are sleeping on Anguissa.

Mr Serge December 31, 2020 12:36:16 “I agree a lot of nutters on here that want to burn the house down as soon as there are a few issues” Apparently the worst Arsenal start since 1974-75, which is 46 years ago, equals “a few issues”. And that thing englandsbest, saying how we are the problem. I support the badge. Not the manager who is leading us towards a ~10th place. The same manager who was given absolute power and managed to absolutely fuck it up. “Few issues” don’t lead to where we are. “Few issues” have been a shambolic, gigantic,… Read more »
Raptora
Well said
Hush please raptors. We are currently on an unbeaten run of two games.
I hope 2021 is far better in football perspective. Watching Arsenal play like Wigan for months and months has been a horrific experience. I wish the owners take the obvious decision, sack Arteta and appoint someone with an actual experience, name and skills. Get one of Allegri, Conte, ten Hag, give them some power to reshape this squad to their liking, and watch what a real professional do. Get a real Techical Director or DoF or whatever works best. Enough of incompetency across the whole club. Things have been going from bad to worse. It’s time we stop taking gambles.… Read more »
Wenger – failed to challenge for title anymore , we called for change ( rightly so )
