Depends on when the cause became the cause for the effect.
Wenger leaving didn't lead to Gazidis being offered a role at Milan, and so leaving Raul in charge, Sven leaving, Arteta eventually taking over, etc etc. These are decisions made by the people in charge at the time, better decisions would lead to better outcomes.
Yes, but that's both tautological and hypothetical. What we need is a project, the project needs to play out, and when/if it fails we need to adapt it to a new manager. We can't just wander aimlessly from manager to manager without any notion of how Arsenal actually operates as a club.
The Kroenkes are clingers. Leeches. Typical landlords, no pride in what they do whatsoever. They want it to just work out for them financially. They should have preempted Gazidis' departure, instead they just let the other guys sort it out amongst themselves. It was a bloodbath. They don't have a hardened and skilled loyalist like Granovskaia to take command. I guess that's what Tim Lewis is supposed to be? But he's just a consultant. We've literally got nobody actually captaining this ship, just a ragtag collection of lieutenants answering to a spoiled little rich boy in Josh.
Every manager will fail in this environment. Maybe we'll get a run or two, like Arteta had and Emery before him, but the end result will be the same.
