Arteta learned most of his tactical knowledge from Pep. And Arteta has said it before that he wants to play attacking football. However, the quality of our players does not allow him to.
If you look at our team, we have skillless players like aubameyang, lacazette, nketiah, Özil, willock......You can’t have more than one of them on the pitch but expecting entertaining football to be played, that's just impossible. That’s why I was always against the signing of aubameyang, lacazette and Özil, never liked them.
Our team need a prime thiago, aouar, coutinho, firmino, benzema, neymar, suarez, cazorla, nasri, hleb, sanchez, van perise, iniesta, kdb, silva......we need to have 5 or 6 skillful players on the pitch to play beautiful football.

I'm surprised he said this, the poor guy has no balance or creative spark in his side, how can he expect us to create more chances. Unless he moves Saka to the midfield we have no one.
Wenger used to parrot a similar line.
“I have the full backing of the board, we have transfer fees available and will only sign a player (s) if we think they will improve our team blah blah”.
Lol
That’s when I fully gave up my “Arsène Knows Best (AKB) membership. It was such a joke window.

Compared to this mess it was an excellent window. 2015/16 we had the most clean sheets in the league. Well done Cech. Let's not rewrite history.
Were we accumulating 8 bang average CBs, players frozen out of the team on ludicrous wages nobody wants, buying nothing but backup players to give an agent a new pension plan, was our head of football sacked for God knows what shenanigans, were we giving 3/4 year contracts to 32year old forwards?
We were 2nd that year. Last I looked we finished 8th mate. Sick of reading this boll*cks.

Lets not let the disappointment of this summer make us call summer 2015 an "excellent" window in comparison...the ramifications of that window cost Arsène his job and put Arsenal in this current mess ffs.

Player:Saliba
No, it wasn't the ramifications of that window that cost Wenger his job, it was a made up story about boring top 4 not being good enough for the mighty Arsenal that put the Wenger Out campaign into over drive.

We came 2nd to the league champions mate, we weren't 8th behind Wolverhampton ****ing Wanderers. There's no perspective.

No matchday funds after Covid 19 and we have no players to sell. Matchday funds is one of our biggest revenue streams.

Kroenke is a disgrace man...
I mean do people really expect Arsenal to spend as much as Chelsea? They have unlimited money.
Country: England
Player:Saliba
We have a mountain of players to sell, but not surprisingly, nobody wants them.
Yes. I'm still sure failure of selling players playing big part.

Aston Villa and Leeds both have a net spend of around 80M this summer. So spare us that COVID and match day revenue bs.

I think @American_Gooner and @HairSprayGooners having been doing their best to keep posters buoyant during this shambles of a window. Telling us it won't be that bad when Partey and Aouar come, you'll see.But then you have guys like @American_Gooner telling us why all our transfers were actually good

Yeah I get it but it comes across as a bit head in the sandish.
Short memory?
We were 3-4 that whole season until the final day when we one and Sp**s lost and we ended up in second. There was no contents or challenge to Leicester on our part. Sp**s were second to them for most of the season until Chelsea put them to the sword and that allowed the foxes to win.
We didn’t lose the title that year. We merely got one over Sp**s.

First half of the season we were closest to Leicester, and we were being tipped to overtake Leicester and win the league. After January we fell apart and bottled it.
We definitely threw that title away. We should have been up there pushing Leicester right to the end.
