@David_Dein_FC With 4 games in 9 days, Arsenal didn't win, everyone becomes a coach; It's unfair. As a fan, enjoy the game, leave the coaching for Arteta to worry about. Last time I checked, he's still the best performing manager in Europe right now. Stats shows it. Cut him some slack. Haba!
🗣️ @TomCantonMedia asked Arteta how Arsenal have spent the rare clear week in training leading up to Everton: “Well, sometimes it's the level of energy and consistent energy that you need throughout a game to sustain when you have played with so many minutes in their legs.
“The things that are small, like we talked about those defensive habits or connections that you don't build because you don't have to do that and this way we have time to work on them and hopefully we're going to see an improvement on Saturday.”

Ambiguity caused King Elempe’s death; he said a calabash is heavier than a ceramic plate but failed to specify if it was a fresh or dry one.

If you have life, sound health, wealth, and happiness, and you think you have all of these 4 mentioned above. You don't. It's either you are not looking closely enough or you just don't know you don't 🤔🤔. No one truly has all 4 of them.

The timing of pivotal things in my life doesn’t seems to follow my plans. Like the year I graduated from uni, when I did my NYSC, settled down,when or my plans of traveling abroad. Nothing followed my timing. What I don’t plan is when to leave everything behind one day. Ṣùpọ!

@London_Highbury Infact, I believe this is Arteta last season at Arsenal because he's never going to win shit with this same philosophy that has won us nothing for the past 5 seasons with him. I use to believe goals is the most important thing in the game. Not for Arteta.
@London_Highbury Arteta doesn't know how to use a poacher in his philosophy. He'd rather use Sesko who couldn't score as harvertz even when he's injured. Arteta doesn't want goals in a striker. He wants team play
