As a secondary point, I'd be interested in people explaining why all the Stevie G 'eeeeeerrrm' stuff, which I thought was pretty juvenile tbh, and not really funny either, but by all accounts all over youtube and social media, is any different to this? I think stuff like that is a pretty cheap shot all round tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't think he was given enough time at Arsenal. They had plenty of issues leading up to his hiring too, like others have mentioned. The few games I've seen of Villareal, they've certainly looked attractive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chine Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Fantastic appointment, his style could do extremely well with the squad here , we could be seeing a lot more goals in games , also a coach not scared to change things in game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villatillidie95 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 I'm happy with that appointment, its a tier below Pochettino and that calibre of manager but still a very good appointment who is more than ambitious enough for were we want to be for the forseeable future. Maybe this guy can get us into Europe and win it at some point, what a fantastic record he has in the Europa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deeps Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 14 minutes ago, Aston_Villan4 said: From an Arsenal fan I know: I think he might do OK there. He thrives when he works with an underdog team who expect to have less than 50% possession. He doesn’t know how to coach vs. inferior teams who set up in a low block and shun possession. His whole coaching philosophy is based on countering the other team’s strength, but that doesn’t work very often at Arsenal or PSG.He’ll do much better than Stevie G, but the football will be dull. I live in Islington, all my Arsenal mates (and there are loads of them) cannot believe we’ve managed to pull this off. Arsenal have hide the highest of highs under Wenger. Unless it was Pep going in after, they were always going to be harsh judges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keener window-cleaner Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Of the names being thrown around he was my first choice. I hope Danks stays on and becomes his assistant. Emery seems like a very good coach, and should be regarded as a bit of a coup for us. Only hesitation is that my strongest memory of him at Arsenal was that he didn't speak English very well, he sounded like Manuel in Fawlty Towers perhaps it's better now! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its mad to be going out of a sacked manager and into a new exciting manager after that Brentford performance. Like you say, it's a decent team. We just lack consistency of good performances. Hopefully this is the guy to deliver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Steve Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 Don't care what some Arsenal fans think tbh. Just look at these stats: In Seville, he won three successive Europa League titles between 2013 and 2016 before going on to lift a Ligue 1 championship in France as well as two French Cups, two French League Cups and two Trophée des Champions.

I wasn't against Gerrard but it turned sour quickly. It wasn't his fault he lost his two big signings so quickly. No, but persisting for months and months with a midfield which obviously (to everyone but him it seems) didn't work, certainly was. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
