Santi Cazorla on Arteta: “Injured, watching games together, he would get the remote & pause it. ‘What are you doing?’. He would say, ‘Go back, go back’, rewind 30 seconds & ask, ‘What do you see?’. ‘I see a paused screen! What do you want me to see?!’”

“He would say, ‘Look at this guy here, how badly he’s positioned. If he goes here & he goes there, this space opens’. Every game, pausing every 20 seconds. The match has finished & we’re still in the 20th minute. I’m thinking, ‘What’s with this guy?’”

“He sees it. I love football but I don’t. I think it’s a gift. He’s pausing. ‘Can’t you see we’re doing this badly? Don’t you think the left-back should be deeper? That he should draw out his marker? Don’t you think we can create a space there?’. I said yes to everything, ‘Yes, you’re completely right Mikel. Now, press play’.”

“I’d say, ‘Mate, you’re a coach already’. He said, ‘Yeah, I see things that make me think I should be’. We talked a lot. He still loved playing, but working with Pep Guardiola at [Man] City was an opportunity, the best apprenticeship. I said, ‘Mikel, if that’s what moves you, go for it.’ It’s worked out well.”

Santi Cazorla on Arsenal: “Mikel has changed their mentality. When I was there, something was missing. Mikel changed that & they have an incredible squad. Arsenal are clear candidates for the league.”

“I love Ødegaard & see myself in him — like him, I found a coach [Wenger] who gave me confidence. He made me captain before I could say ‘hola’ in English! Declan Rice reminds me of Aaron Ramsey, appearing everywhere, a brutal player.”

Sportsweb:
You can keep switching goalpost.

Bottom line remains no serious club will allow Mikel spend a day more after that first season.. only Arsenal tolerates mediocrity.

You're the one switching goalpost. You said Todd would have sacked Arteta since, we asked you why Poch is still there despite turning you guys into mid table club.

Chelsea won't play CL next season I hope you know?

Yes we won't play but at least we have 2.

I know na. That thing is common with most Nigerian Arsenal fans, but I understand sha. The trolling of rival fans always get to most Nigerian Arsenal fans and it makes it difficult for them to see things for what it is.

We have one of the best young managers in the world, but we should sack him because he could not win the league against world class top coaches like Klopp and Pep.

Oya if we sack him who should we sign? Whoever we sign , I can place a sizable amount of money on a bet that such coach will still lose the league if Guardiola remains in the EPL next season. In recent times, only Arteta and Klopp have given Guardiola that close neck-to-neck competition.

But then , I know most people here won't agree and will call for Arteta's head anyways. I am just looking forward to Arsenal making the mistake of sacking Arteta for not winning the league

The issue isn’t sacking him but getting a good replacement which is not possible considering there’s no available good coach available

I just hope city slip along the race to give us an edge to the league

Junior brother fc, We dey go represent Europe, England and london on the world stage o ... local champion
Soe get size and qualities ..THE PRIDE OF LONDON

As I see that lineup, I don know say you go dey vex. Let's watch sha...

Foolish kiwi square playing blindly
No one in the box and the mugu still pull out

What happened to Rice’s shooting? Maybe because that came to his left foot.

Odegaard’s shot is wide from outside the box

Our crossings into the box have been poor. I watched Barcola (PSG) and Yamal (Barcelona) whip some sweet, dangerous crosses for their respective teams. We are too predictable with the cut backs.

Rice did not even hit target there. He did better scoring with WH, I expected more scoring from him.

Another flat performance thus far.

FK Wolves.
