It's never nice when someone loses their job, especially someone as nice as Unai, and I wish him all the best.

That said, thank fuck. We've been awful for roughly NINE months now. Hopefully Freddie can step in and steer the ship for a while until we find the right replacement.

 

A good decision from the Arsenal board for once.

All I've seen is people saying his timekeeping is very poor, turning up to training/team meetings late all the time - including earlier in the week (which I would guess was why he was benched for the Barca game) and when he was late back from England duty & was fined £80,000+!

 

Arsenal 2019-20 will be a carbon copy of United 2018-19, except even worse because United have left behind a blueprint of how not to handle things.

 

Levy beat Arsenal to Mourinho. He would’ve taken whichever job came open first and if we waited longer there’s no telling who Levy would go after.

 

I don't think we ever seriously wanted Mourinho. It would have caused an all out riot and they aren't quite THAT stupid.

 

beating us to Mourinho implies we wanted Mourinho, who is in many ways the anthesis of everything that represents arsenal. just because Jorge Mendes probably had a conversation with Sanllehi touting Mourinho for the job doesnt mean he was ever under serious consideration, in many ways he's a total no go not only for what he represents and values but because of his feud with Wenger. Similarly, I dont think Nuno is under serious consideration for the job but his agent is also Mendes, so you leak that he is for a contract boost at Wolves, everybody wins

 

if Mou got the job their woulda been a Wenger coup d'etat

 

That goal was beautiful

 

omg Sissoko

 

Dele and Son in the counter together is a lot of fun

 

Dele is back in peak form and I love it

 

Sissoko!!!

 

Germany, France and Portugal in one group at the Euros...

 

That should never be allowed lol

 

Group A in the Euro draw is sneaky good

 

19 man squad with a Pereira, Fred, Mata midfield. Would be shocked if we won this match today to be quite honest.

 

I still can’t believe Sissoko scored a goal

 

New Arsenal manager and they still don't see how bad Mustafi is.

 

Him calling for offside was hilarious. Shows he’s absolutely no idea where his partner is.

 

Watching Norwich get VAR'd is great.

 

It's absolutely crazy that Arsenal are making the exact same mistakes with manager succession as United, despite having a literal blueprint of what not to do provided.

 

Ljungberg out

 

Class finish from Grealish.

 

Forgot what time it was

LOL I should really start betting on football.
