When I look at coaches in the present day like Emery, Jose and too an extent Ancelotti it makes me laugh how people want someone with a "proven track record" above anything else.

I would say upcoming managers like Lampard and Arteta are much more suited to big jobs these days than they are.

Perhaps but I did expect Emery to do well in the PL. Maybe not win trophies but he seemed suited to change Arsenal more than what I felt Artera could do to change Arsenal.

Hes almost the opposite of what youd expect an Arsenal coach to be after Wenger but as weve seen with United perhaps going for someone similar in his ideas and philosophy might have eased the transition.

Emerys teams were usually a bit more disciplined, play with a higher intensity and adaptable. PSG was different to that as they had aspirations to be a CL winning team but at Valencia and Seville under him they were very much intense, discplined and very adaptable.

He's probably more suited to managing the B-tier clubs - the Valencias, Sevillas, Evertons, Atalantas of this world - than the A-tier/elite clubs.

I found it hilarious how SKY and Talksport yesterday kept salivating over Arteta and this 'new era' and how they are back being Arsenal again after only a few games.

They got fucking pummeled in that first half yesterday and weren't actually that much better in the second half.

new era or not, we beat that lot at their own place, let those morons at SKY salivate all they want. Arteta is riding his luck for now, we'll see.

The sum of what Fred brings is miniscule to the sum of what he fucks up. So glad Utd stick with him.

He is in essence no better than Baka, City doged a bullet there as they were after him too if im not wrong.

Wheres that Pogba chap ? Brings so much unity and morale to the side

He is having a blast thats where he is. He is being paid huge money per week for partying drinking driving etc. He is living large man. But dont forget he is still one of the best MF'ers.....so says the media anyway. Even manu fans dont regard him anymore.

Didn't they beat nearly all the big teams this season in PL?

Excluding us, they beat Spurs and City in the league, drew with Arsenal and Liverpool, lost to Arsenal.

It still doesn't excuse our losses against them though, when they have been so poor. In fact, we haven't even beaten Solskjaer's United yet (D1 L3)!
