I haven´t started these comparisons.@HattoriHanzo has just signed up and is coming with his katana-swinging to defend Arteta in comparing with few big name managers like Carlo and Zidane who both won trophies galore.
He wouldn´t come to Arsenal.
From what I know he isn´t even interested coming to England.
He refused PSG this summer which is telling.
I can imagine him being interested only in his previous clubs (Real and Juventus).
And French NT, of course
Anyway he doesn´t look to me like a manager who builds the squad (what Arsenal needed in 2019)
Iâm not of the opinion a manager should be flipping a whole squad or âsigning his playersâ as many fans/media seem to think so. The best clubs should be buying the right players not based on the desired managers style but the clubs. If/When he leaves or gets sacked the transition to the next manager taking over will smooth and they wonât have to flip the whole squad again.
I agree with you in general.Possibly but weâll never know until heâs had the chance to do so.

When Emery was sacked, I have expected that Arsenal would hire Ancelotti (who was sacked by Napoli at that time).
And for me it would have been wise move back then.
Ancelotti is not limited to certain philosophy, he just uses players he has at his disposal.
We can only imagine how Arsenal would look under Ancelotti and how successful he would be with Arsenal.
But we know that Real would have come for him in summer 2021. and I am 99% sure that he would accept their offer.
And Arsenal would have been without manager in 2021.
I share your opinion that manager doesn´t have to change the whole squad in order to play "his football".
But Arsenal has chosen Arteta, and here we are.
As fans, we should support him hoping that he has the skill to reach the highest level.
He should be critisized for his mistakes, but constructively.
What does that make Arteta?It seems loads of posters are making the mistake of considering a manager great because he got to run a few cheat clubs for a sustained period of time. 00s Milan, 00s Chelsea and Real Madrid are cheat code clubs. You don't get points for winning with them, unless you consider Roberto Di Mateo the best coach of all time
Ancelotti, Mourinho, Zidane.....basically all modern day yet inferior versions of Kenny Daglish.
Rodgers had a fluke season being carried by Suarez and returned to **** the following season, Arsenal will be up there against this season.The current Arteta should be compared to Rodgers. Their achievements were quite similar when they were young. Hopefully the future will see Arteta coaching Rangers.
The best clubs should be buying the right players not based on the desired managers style but the clubs.
I honestly think people make a bit too much out of saying Arteta wants "his" players. Not that he didn't or need new players, he obviously did, but rather because I think it's become quite clear that the players you had to work with at the time just weren't up the standard, regardless of the manager in charge.
There aren't really any of the current players I'd flag as only working for Arteta and an awkward fit for a different manager. Zinny maybe? Not because he's not a good player, but because you don't really have a traditional LB as a result of him but utilized as one, but he's still a quality midfield option for any manager. I just think you've brought in class players, honestly.
As far as I know, none of the players you've let go have really proven the point that you just needed better players wrong. None of them are better than the players you have now, and wouldn't be under any manager.
Under Conte, Bissouma for example looked like a shadow of his former self which just goes to show the difference a good manager can make.
Just an example but look at the rubbish that Ange Postecoglou is working with. I know itâs early doors but to get something out of players that were laughed about by many on here including myself and get them to play a brand of attacking football is already an achievement. Under Conte, Bissouma for example looked like a shadow of his former self which just goes to show the difference a good manager can make.
Couldn't you make this exact same argument with Xhaka? Went from one of the most disliked players to a fan favourite because of how Arteta utilized him. And it's not like Xhaka was previously managed by bad managers, but Arteta got him to perform at a level we hadn't seen before.
Weren't most Arsenal fans wishlisting Bissouma though? He screens the back 4 brilliantly and is incredibly press resistant. Did this for years at Brighton.
Conte's anti football was disgusting too. He didn't even try to get them playing football. Have everyone sit back and then occasionally try to have his front 3 break on the counter. Turgid stuff. Mourinho was much the same. There's noway any midfielder is getting to look good in possession with those managers.
