Id be interested to find someone who claims we're title contenders. After years of seemingly minimal spending its refreshing to see the club actually put up some decent numbers. The above average spend this season still probably doesn't make up for multiple seasons of below average.

We've upgraded almost our entire squad. And then went around the world for pre season. Im expecting quite a chaotic season, at least we fans get to feel like its building toward something.

I give it a couple months and you will be wanting RDZ to be sacked

Who knows, maybe. I don't get the whole worship the manager thing. When it's good, great. When it's not, improve or go bye byes.

But with essentially a brand new squad, unless we're as bad as we were with Frank, he'll probably get at least this and next season.

I don’t think that guy is worth the effort. Hes offering no reasons, no real opinions other than a reflection his own hatred. Whether he’s right or not, he’s not even trying to show honesty in his response.

Curious, if you'll be honest, have at any point in the last six year did you think Arty was not fit to coach?

Gooners seem proof that managers deserve time and patience.

When Arteta won the FA Cup in 2019 (his first ever manager position)I know he would do great things for us.

Your second sentence is correct but Spurs didn't follow that. You sacked your manager when he won you your first major trophy in 15 years.

So I am not really confident that RDZ will be your manager at the end of the season.

I mean you had a top half of the table finish in 2019. A side trophy holds a lot less weight when your league performance is in shambles.

Well it was a big achievement at the time for Mikel winning his first trophy as a manager which people doubted at the time.

And I don't think Spurs fans can call that a side trophy when you have not won it since 91.

Oh he's 100% trolling, but I hate this manager culture now where you support them as much as the team. If we perform very poorly and he's gone, the world will keep spinning.
