Official: Mikel Arteta is the new Arsenal manager.
Honestly this hattrick only pissed me off more. What a fuckwad you have to be to do this in the league cup after playing like such an asshole when it really matters.
Of course Eddie scores (I'm watching the replay rn)

Burnwinter hundred percent. i wouldnt want to renew him. but at the same time, if he shows a level of form to attract other clubs, we should take advantage of said form while he has it.
@Big Willie, both MLS and Nwaneri are at about 300 minutes in all competitions and 100 minutes in the league.
They’ll both easily surpass last season’s totals for Nelson, Smith and Vieira.
Insane Auba and Laca are still on this chart
HomeSteak I struggle with this.
A known goalscorer scored some important goals for us. Doesn't mean he won it on his own.
Don Pacifico Hehehehe. Apparently Arteta and the other 10 players were playing dominoes on the sidelines
He certainly carried dragged us to that cup win.
Is like people saying Lehmann won the FA Cup in 2005 for us. Certainly not wrong
Clrnc Lehmann won us the final itself but I don't recall him standing out especially in any of the earlier rounds.
Don Pacifico but Auba scored braces in the semi and final against top opposition which I think was the first time sometime had scored 2 back to back. I'm not saying we would have lost but there's a good chance we don't win with his pure individual quality in the semi and final.

Don Pacifico nah auba was spesh during that run, and offered more than just goals. he was super efficient and - at least during that spell - a good leader

Of course it was a hyperbola, there were a few players that were great in that run(David Luiz is one, Emi etc), or even before the semi, like Ceballos and his late goal against someone, can't remember who it was, that got us to Wembley
Hell, the goal vs City was an amazing team goal, I think something like 20 passes without City touching the ball before we scored , that being said, the guy got 2 chances in each game and scored 2. Against Chelsea when he turns Jorghino it was not even half a chance and he scored. So while an exageration, he was the main reason we won that, and had he not been in the team, we would have not won it.
From this current team, bar Saka, don't think anyone in that front 3 scores those goals.
