Pep Guardiola the revolutionist said during his sabbatical in 2013 he learned about using basketball tactics and applying it to football but here is Wenger doing it 10 years earlier. Always ahead of the curve
Arsenal never made the Champions League before Wenger or since he’s left but fans wanna act like his legacy is overrated. He took us to this level and kept us there
Jesus takes 4 players out the game and creates a goal from nothing but Havertz running into nowhere gets the praise….
The mental gymnastics our fans have leaves me speechless
Look at Havertz
no intention of running to receive the ball, knows what he needs to do to create space for trossard and does it before bayern even realise what happened
Pep thought he could disrespect Arsene Wenger in a week building up to a semi final in a cup he created, against his club with his son Arteta in charge and not get taught a thorough lesson lol
Arsenal see former Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino as a credible option to succeed the sacked Unai Emery as head coach. How the 47yo Argentine would view an approach is unclear, but he is among the

A reminder that Sir Alex did this against Prime Jose, Prime Wenger & Prime Benitez.
Vieira’s improved Palace overnight but some Arsenal fans think Arteta in his third season needs more time.
There is no master plan happening under Arteta, he’s just an extremely boring and basic coach and what we’ve seen so far is what he is.
Really don’t understand this weird obsession some Arsenal fans have mocking Thierry Henry. He’s the best player in our history and some idiots are upset because he rightfully said Arsenal can’t win the title with Giroud. It’s pathetic
Wengers legacy will never be in question. He achieved the ultimate in football; won big trophies and by playing amazing football. It doesn’t get better than that.
He never once had the finance to dominate like clubs around him did either, it was all his own great work.
Racist. Arteta can lose 6 games on the trot at a team like Arsenal and you lot were defending him none stop, but Palace losing 3 which is expected and you’re doing articles criticising him. Won today btw.
Absolute scum and you were crying that your journalist’s gets abuse lol.
Turns out Pepe's father was spot on
"“My son has a lot of qualities but he still has a lot of work. He must be more consistent in his game, more serious. He must understand this is not fun, it’s his job.”
Omg Van Persie first pundit to expose Emery. Saying Wenger played with a philosophy and he doesn’t see a philosophy with Emery.
“What is his philosophy, he’s changing a lot. He’s changing his playing his style based on the opponent” UNREALLLLL
Arsenal have become very unlikable post Wenger for me, even before him we were known as a classy club but these owners and executives are total scum. I like a few of our players but none of them have any status bar Özil or Bellerin. Arteta & Freddie the only likeable guys off it
Fabregas stabbed Wenger & Arsenal in the back when we needed him most after we gave him everything to be a top player. That’s his Arsenal legacy right there
So sad how Wenger never got Aubameyang for at least a full season but a dirty bastard like Emery has got a world class goal scorer to bail him out every week 😪😪😪😪
Some Arsenal fans are proper scum. They’ll still have love for guys like Cesc & Alexis but turned on Özil & Aubameyang who gave us their best years and stayed loyal
Wenger 100%. Completely crossed the line. Made the atmosphere totally toxic even after wins.
Wenger, who barely knows anything about social media or takes notice of it, said they made the club look bad internationally
Arsenal fans every year convince themselves the club is secretly doing something special undercover in the transfer market but no, the club are really that shit at identifying our problems. Beyond disgraceful not to sign a striker & winger.
Changes at Arsenal already well underway.
After the sacking of Steve Bould as U23s coach, I'm told Bruno Mazziotti has also gone. The Brazilian's contract has not been renewed and leaves the performance team less than a year after arriving from PSG.
"They scored with their first chance, we have to improve and punish teams" 🗣️
Mikel Arteta reacts after Arsenal had over 60% possession but had two shots on target in their pre-season defeat to Liverpool 🔴
Edu: “I don’t want to go for top four, top six, top eight or top 10. I’m just really looking forward to seeing this squad play together. I want to see our squad because I don’t see it yet. I believe & Mikel believes that this team can have a good season.”
Wenger went Invincible in a season where he was only able to field his best XI twice....my word what a coach.
Now we can’t beat Palace or Brighton because we have two injuries 🤣🤣🤣
On this day in 2004, a Thierry Henry hat-trick against Liverpool helped to maintain Arsenal's unbeaten PL record.
It was the first time these 11 players started a game together - the only other occasion would be the 38th league match against Leicester City
Not giving Özil a proper send off after 8 years is disgusting, especially after being key in winning multiple trophies. A bum like Cech who did nothing but cost us games got a good and respectful send off.
Hate how the club is run, nothing likeable about it at all anymore.
Ryan Giggs insists making the two hotels he part-owns with former Manchester United team-mate Gary Neville available free of charge to NHS workers is the "right thing to do".
Since Fergie left Utd they’ve wasted so much time and money making ‘statement’ signings to get them back to the top rather actually building a team. Mata, Falcao, Di Maria, Schweinsteiger, Depay, Martial, Pogba, Ibrahimovic & Alexis
This game is just like the Villarreal one. No effort, tempo, imagination or plan. Just all round pathetic and a constant theme under Arteta. He’s got to go if we wanna make serious progression.
He’s been given what he wants yet the performances stay the same.
No mainstream media talking about the actual pathetic performance v Palace and putting any pressure on Emery. Just trivial stuff about Xhaka and VAR.
For me, and the majority of fans, Emery’s terrible set up is far bigger than those other two issues.
If you became Emery Out after December 2018 then your application to join is rejected.
December is incredibly generous for a guy who was obviously a bum before he even joined. You had your chance and loads of them. There’s only a select few of us who were Emery Out from day one
The fact people genuinely thought Wenger didn’t coach these players gets more laughable by the day. Do you know how good you have to be to get this out of a team that individually isn’t elite
Ironically it’s the same people who called Wenger a dinosaur that worship the ground Arteta walks on and make every excuse under the sun for.
He can’t coach an attack, doesn’t know how to press and the build up is a mess when pressed. There’s nothing modern or good about him.
We could’ve got Isak & Bruno Guimaraes for peanuts back in 2022 compared to what they’d go for now. Both walk into our current team too. Arteta has wasted too much money and missed too many opportunities.
Just a few years back we were watching Özil, Alexis, Cazorla, Wilshere, Ramsey being our creators and now we can’t play properly without a fucking left back
Arteta to Sky: "Kieran Tierney is a real threat and the way we attack on the left is really important but he is injured and we have to find a solution. He will have an MRI scan tomorrow."
Wenger was so right not to want to grease these super agents. They’re all scum. Even Florentino Perez got rid of all Jorge Mendes’ clients and doesn’t like Raiola.
At times you might need to swallow your pride and do a deal but you can’t do what Sanllehi does.
Arteta has embarrassed this club so much. Been awful having to watch his shit football and results. Made us so bad we’re unattractive for any good players. But it’s ok if he doesn’t get top 4 because nothing is his fault

Ozil massively splits opinion & is past his best, he should no longer be a guaranteed starter but should definitely be more involved than he currently is.

Graeme Souness saying it’s Arsene Wengers fault he didn’t groom his own successor looooooooool. Joleon Lescott had to hold back from bursting out laughing
Carragher & Neville badly overrated this Chelsea team because they fluked another CL.
Gotta remember they only got top 4 last year because Leicester lost on the last day to Spurs. They lost to Villa when they needed a win to guarantee top 4, tells you a lot about their quality.

I’ll never be able to truly express how much I hate Unai Emery and explain all the bad things he’s done. There’s just too much to say. Just an absolute failure of a human being on all levels
Bologna ‘want at least €20m-€22m plus bonuses’ for defender Aaron Hickey, although ‘no one seems to have reached that figure’ yet. Arsenal ‘are working to manage the negotiation & as early as next week, there could be small steps forward’. [

This is 100% on Sanllehi. The idiot wouldn’t sack his mate Emery when it was obvious he’s shit, waited til our season was as good as over and now we’re in a total mess.
At the bare minimum he should’ve had a good replacement lined up.
Clive Tyldesley brings a briefcase worth of stats and facts to a game but ITV have made Sam Matterface their number 1 commentator claiming Arsenal aren’t in Europe this year...
Signing a scrub like Denis Suarez is exactly why we shouldn’t be backing Emery in the market and need to sack him. He’s gonna clog our squad with rubbish while losing Özil & Ramsey
Losing to Forrest was no big deal, losing to an under strength Liverpool was no big deal, if we don’t get top 4 it’s no big deal.
Does Arteta have any objectives? Is it just ok to achieve nothing year on year?
