Everyone thought we were getting Guardiola-lite when we gave Arteta the manager's job at Arsenal.
But I can't shake the feeling that he has modelled his fledgling career on Mourinho.
Arteta's lineups can be conservative to a fault at times.
Furthermore, the verbal grenade he lobbed during the Leicester post-match interview was also typical Jose. Anything to shift the focus away from the fact that we had spunked away a lead at home with 10 minutes of play left. Worked like a charm.
Then you have these little mind games in the lead up to the NLD.
Only time will tell if he can imitate José's success on the pitch.

Hopefully taken some from both. Our squad isn't amazing but we have a proven goalscorer, going back to basics and defending well and hoping we sneak a goal has worked wonders in building our confidence. From there hopefully we can look to build towards more expansive football.

He's only said this incase he loses
He looks fine either way
Beats/LosesDraws with WC manager, the man will escape all criticism and probably be praised when they actually win
