TEMPTATIONS AND SELECTION TRAPS EVERYWHERE

by .

The big one is tomorrow. Arteta rolled the entire season on Europa League. He has to deliver.

My big fear?

Galaxy brain.

There are so many temptations and potential traps that could down us.

Do you bring David ‘BIG GAME’ Luiz back in the mixer?

Does Auba start?

Does he risk Tierney or Lacazette despite them having no game time?

Internet people are saying we should roll all the dice. For me, that’s dim thinking. Nothing wrecks an Arsenal plan worse than an early smack in the face. Losing players that are important to the system isn’t good for the system. Also, losing players for the final would also be disastrous.

I’d prefer to lessen the risk by playing fit players who want to perform.

The biggest galaxy brain worry is rolling out a Villareal tactical plan built for Manchester City level players. We’re not there yet. 20-year-olds in the false 9 role is not going to work tomorrow. We need to have a simple plan every single player can follow. That means the right players in the right positions. We have enough fitness to deliver on that vision.

Auba is fit, he wants to lead, he’ll have horrendous memories of his miss last year, that desire to prove the world wrong will be key. That feels like a huge boost.

Martinelli was on fire at the weekend, he’s in form, he should land a starting role.

Odegaard created 5 chances against Newcastle, if you’re playing Auba, you need him on the pitch.

Then it’s tough because you have Lacazette, Saka, and Pepe pushing for starts.

We need to win 1-0. Simple as that. Then we’re through. I would prefer destruction. I’m not sure we’ll get that, but we certainly did away for Slavia Prague.

If we win, Arteta has made a second final in two of the toughest ever seasons. That’s good work. He’ll still need to win the final, but it certainly takes the edge off the league season.

I don’t even want to contemplate a loss.

Whatever the result, there’s still a lot of introspection about this season to be had. It’s not been good enough. A trophy won’t change that.

… but, it’ll go a long way. It’s the memory zapper in MIB. We all need a memory zapper for this season.

Fingers crossed Arteta has something special lined up.

ARgunner

Just Another Customer

rollen

Tets will never work at top club again. Generational before even starting lol.

Gommit

This is feeling like the last weeks of Emery.. Shit spirit and performances…

Guernsey+gun

Wheres that cuck Englands best….the weapon. Arteta is class.

Habesha Gooner

Pep’s cone guy is not it. Average footballer and now a worse manager.

Peckobill

By a country mile our worst season in the premier league era

Useroz

3 added mins left

zaco

Emery went 23 unbeaten and we sacked him and brought in the generational arrogant man who will rather fail than take corrections

IQ

This idiot has never grasped the importance of a midfield in football.

JOEL

That just sums up Neketiah’s ability

Useroz

Arteta better not make history

IQ

School boy let’s play 11 strikers football

Useroz

Just drop and get a FK

Just Another Customer

stupid Eddie

Leftside

He’ll still be here next season, this has been an abomination.

Guernsey+gun

Give tets 150 mil next year, apparently real need to sell hazard, guess which dick head would sign him…..

Guns of Brixton

Mid table team

Jamie

Fair play to Emery.

I hope he shit-houses his way to a 4th EL trophy. Fuck Ole.

Arteta out. 18 months of the worst football we’ve witnessed at Arsenal in living memory.

Black+Snake

1 shot on target. Cuntingly pathetic

Useroz

Arteta can fuck off now whatever the result

ARgunner

That rub salt in if cock scored…gee 25 years fucked over…

Saladin

Arteta needs to go tonight.

Guns of Brixton

What a weak weak display

sly

pathetic

Elmo

Complete nothing performance from what is currently a complete nothing, rudderless club. We won’t be back in Europe for many years to come.

gunnerman

What a brilliant idea not playing a striker in the first leg has turned out to be. Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

Gommit

No Europa next winter.. Let that sink in..

Mr Serge

I knew we would not win this from the 11th minute

Useroz

Still fuxking jogging

Launch it

Dissenter

Game was lost in the first leg when Fraudetta decided to disappear

rollen

Idiots at the club will let Arteta fight relegation battle next season.

Wardo

Wanky club

We’re utterly fucking shit

Fuck em all off

JOEL

Arteta likes blaming himself in his post match interviews…So on this occasion…Please do the decent thing…AND RESIGN!!

James wood.

THAT RESULT SUMS THE WHOLE SEASON UP
THE DECLINE ACCELERATES.

Matt

Ha ha fucking ha. This club is dead.

Peckobill

Absolutely no doubt about it arteta should go tonight . Pound for pound the worst managerial appointment we’ve ever made

Just Another Customer

lol that smug face from Emery

Mr Serge

Kronkes out

Habesha Gooner

Arteta Out. If he is here next season then we will never be back to being a top club. Sack him now.

IQ

Emery deserves a standing ovation. Arsenal get what they deserve with this absolute joke of a manager.

Foxy

Arsenal out Arteta out

Nelson

Arteta is not good enough.

MD-Gunner

Ask me if I give shit, NO as long as the Kroenkes and Arteta I don’t give a shit. No Europa competition next year, no excellent players are attracted.

Valentin

Trust the process, my ass.
Generationally useless manager.

David Kay

Arteta Out
KROENKE OUT
Pedro Out

Benjamin

Pedro out! Emery owned Arteta!

Mr Serge

Matt fuck off

Ozy

Please. Arteta needs to get sacked.

Guernsey+gun

Arteta needs another 18 months hes brilliant.

Useroz

Arteta you can go straight to hell and take your assistants

Vinai and Edu can go to hell too

raptora

God bless we lost.

Fuck Arteta in the arse.

Worst manager I’ve seen in my days.

What a con artist.

Lost to Emery with a far superior team.

Garbage of the highest order.

Guns of Brixton

This has to be one of the worst seasons in living memory

How do you attract players with no europe?

La croqueta

1 shot on target so far. Hey PEDRO. You said some of us were dim for thinking emery was a better coach than arteta. What metric did you use to decide that? 3 games in an fa cup tournament? I’d rather use League performance as an accurate measure of a managers coaching ability.

Gey PEDRO. If emery is a poor manager. And Arteta is a good one. But Emery defeats Arteta over two legs (no luck or fluke involved). What does that make Arteta? Asking for a friend.

Time up

That will put Emery Arteta debate to rest.

Chris

Saka and ESR inconsolable. Willian couldn’t give a fuck.

sly

l,ol

Wardo

Arteta out

Owners out. Bet they’re not even watching

Mr.J

Can we now sack Arteta please

Moe

Only 1 shot on target………where to start

MuddyGooner

Fuck off you fraud Arteta

GunnerWomble

Did we get a shot on target?

MidwestGun

That was sad as fuck… Clearly this job is waaaay to big for Arteta he has to go..

Foxy

Auba etc will jump ship if they can

Graham

If Arteta is still manager tomorrow and Pedro is still blogging they should both be ashamed of themselves.

Lacaqualidie

Shocking. Arteta, if he had any honour, would resign in the press conference after the game. He has to be sacked otherwise.

rollen

Bow to Emery and then fuck off u lego haired imbecile!

Peckobill

NO ONE can defend arteta anymore . The man is a complete bullshitter to get the job in the first place

Dissenter

Pedro
You deserve all the grief you get n
You’ve been defending this fraud with a flame thrower all season

Graham

Arteta out
Pedro out

Chris

Out with a whimper. No Europe next season. Serious questions need asking of everyone at the club.

For a club of our size to be in this position simply unacceptable.

Valentin

6 home games without a win…
Let that sink in.

La croqueta

Hey*

sly

Militant post to follow

GillespieRoadNoMore

That was misery from start to finish, bereft of ideas, totally lacking in spirit and just plain clueless. A year without European football is probably a blessing as there is no way this squad could challenge for major honours.

Chris

Held at arms length by Emery all night. Doesn’t look good on Arteta.

Frost

Literally any ambitious club will sack him this night.

Saladin

Emery masterclass.

Elmo

The end of Arteta.

Out to a team from a town of 50,000, with a wage bill that is 15% of Arsenal’s, who had lost 3 of their best players to injury, to a manager who our fanbase labelled a joke.

bennydevito

Arteta out now, he’s had long enough. Emery out performed him on every metric and he was fucking shite.

Enough is enough now.

#ArtetaOut

Matt

Shut up Serge you mug.

Wardo

Wenger was better

raptora

Get a proper manager.
Even if we had scored a lucky goal it wouldn’t have mattered.
We would have lost the final.

At least now Arteta has no parachute. I pray to god he’s done.

Danny S

Pedro needs to write a personal apology to every poster on here he ridiculed when they questioned artetas appointment and threw his ‘sources’ in their face.

Useroz

Two hits off post and poor aim by Esr were bad but Arteta defined the night and must fuck off, now. Not end of season

Peckobill

Arteta , if he played by his own rules he would say this season broke a non negotiable and resign

Time up

Get the cunt out of our club tonight.

A fucking Con Artist.

MD-Gunner

Good ebening fucked Arsenal well done and all those that supported Emery please have your day and gloat. No European competition for Arsenal in 25 years way to go newbs.
