Bad idea for him to go now tho surely? Yea, it seems like the ill sentiment towards the manager off the pitch has affected the mindset of the players on the pitch.
I just cannot understand how a manager can be great from 96-2004(7) and then from then on be completely stubborn, blinkered and inadequate.
He's transfer policies over the years is just one area that's frustrating. Year after year saying that we have a squad capable of winning the league, when rivals are spending big and it was plain to see year after year we where not good enough.
The last 10 years at Arsenal have pretty much been the same. Predicable.
We are desperately in need for someone with fresh ideas to come in and make us competitive again. Were just not competitive anymore.
Teams we have no chance of beating:
Chelsea, Liverpool, Man U, Man C & Spurs. Any game home or away as an Arsenal fan we just know we are not gong to win.
But that's not even the issue, its the way we lose that's the problem. Clueless, no bottle or fight, tactics naive. And this is the same year after year after year.
I'd rather see us lose 5-1 having fought for our lives than trying to play 'pretty' football and lose 5-1.
