Mikel Arteta at Arsenal 2019/20

Jumping on the ex player bandwagon.

Has a lot of people talking him up Pep isn’t happy he’s leaving City but who knows could just be the Spanish Steve McLaren.

Similar to Ole his first job is a massive overhaul of a first team squad that I don’t think give a toss about Arsenal and certainly don’t respect the traditions of the club.
 
Looking to sign Cedric Soares on loan with a view to a perm deal for £1m. That’s a great bit of business.
 
FA Cup winners always nice to put a pot in the cabinet at the end of the season and they deserved it this season knocked out decent teams along the way and were the better team in both the semi and final.

Probably covers up the bigger issues at the club which was a league finish of 8th 14 points less than the previous season.

Two players totally dominate Arsenal right now one who they desperately want to stay and probably wants to go in Aubameyang and one who they desperately want to go but he wants to stay in Ozil.

The thing I like about Arteta is he's clearly freezing out the guys who's attitude stinks players like Ozil and Guendouzi have basically been told to go elsewhere if they want to play. The guys he's having to pick might not be as good but they've got the right attitude and want to put the team first.

Tactically it's been hard to get a read on Arteta another team who've kind of stumbled into 3-4-3 as a good counter attacking system vs the better sides but it doesn't really work in games vs the weaker sides in the league so he'll need to address that.

Hard to really see them being much better next season even if Aubameyang does stay and sign a new deal.
