feels like a renewal that was going to happen regardless of where we finished, and they were just waiting for a good moment to release the news. better than potentially finishing 6th in a underwhelming manner, then announcing the extension
Yeah, he was always gonna get an extension unless we finished entirely out of Europe again. The billionaire cunts and clueless incompetents like Stan, Josh, Vinai and Edu who make the big decisions at this club are all convinced Arteta is the solution, Arteta himself believes he is the solution and the team is behind him now that he got rid of all the dissidents for the moment. He was always gonna get that extension And if we do get Top 4, I'll be fine with that decision too, I doubt he makes it to 2025 anyway personally. And if he does end up getting us back into contention for the title and into the CL full time, fucking great. Would love to be proven wrong about him.
What annoys me a lot more than the extension is the calculated timing of the announcement, they're obviously not convinced we're gonna get Top 4 or they would have waited, so they chose to announce it after a string of good results and right before everything could go to shit. All the while we have some neoliberal drones from a consultancy fixing our culture, fucking amazon cameras in the dressing room and David Ornstein is obviously on the payroll at this point. It's so transparent that these people will do everything in their power to make Arsenal seem like a great club on the up with every PR trick in the book, yet have no fucking clue about bloody football. None of them, not Stan, not Josh and not Vinai. Good publicity is the priority for them, they've left the sporting decisions completely up to Edu, a rookie, and Arteta, another rookie, who's narcissistic enough to believe he is the solution. It's madness. Let's just hope Arteta is right about himself. Cause if he isn't the solution, I get the feeling everyone at the club will have no fucking clue whatsoever what to do.
