I think in hindsight you maybe right

Valenica haven't been to the CL since Emery left. And he did a pretty damn good job at Sevilla. PSG didn't hire him because he "failed at every club". He got the PSG job in the first place cos he had an impressive resume. Admittedly, he failed in the job. But to say he has "failed at every club" is stupid.

and you think Arteta will deliver ?

And nobody knows a damn thing about Arteta's capability as a manager. So there are no grounds to believe he'd do a better job than Emery. Zero.

Emery inherited a garbage squad that EVERYBODY predicted would finish 6th at best this season. I have been critical of him several times this season for some head-scratching decision-making, but have also credited him for our greater competitiveness in bigger fixtures and he's done enough to show he deserves support in the transfer market to rebuild the team. Support that he hasn't had.

Sharticle Emery has improved us

posted on 4/5/19

What makes you think Arteta will be any good as a manager? He has no experience of managing a club. I think you need to give Emery a break. If we win tomorrow we go into the last game of the season with a chance of top four and we are one game away from a European final. All this with no support from above, terrible defence, hardly anything in midfield and no wide men.

He's done a good job so far you cant expect him to fix 10 years of stagnation in one season.

Farcical.

Even the next Klopp couldn’t win the French cup with an even better PSG. Never mind losing to Mam U in CL

Arteta is one of the main reasons why city are doing so well. It's well documented in interviews from managers, team mates and ex players how intelligent he is.
Pep has even admitted this

How about giving him time to build a squad and judging him after?

So he was responsible for their Champions League collapse despite having the best squad in the world? Champions League was their priority this season. If you can't win with unlimited money how are you going to at club that is far more prudent with their cash?

You're mad to even think of arsenal competing for the champions league.
Arteta would have us challenging for the league and domestic cups, he'll of a lot more than what emery will.

Emery will have us competing for 3rd/4th place during his time here

The club could do with a couple years of 3rd/4th place finishes if you ask me.

We finished 40 points off the pace last season.

How about keeping it down to less than 30 points this time round?

Maybe even down to 20 if we try hard enough next season.

I was just pointing out that he hasn't done that good a job even as a number 2. You cannot give him credit for Man City doing well in the league and then ignore his performance in the Champions League. And all of that with unlimited money.

What makes you think he has the ability to spot talent? Develop youngsters or even has enough tactical ability to win games your squad has no right to.

We beat Utd, Chelsea and Spurs at home this year. Drew with Spurs and Utd away. All teams that were present in the late stages of the Champions League. Emery did that. Wenger hasn't been able to compete against the best teams in this league for years.

Emery's job is to get us qualified for the Champions League by the end of next season. So far he has done a very good job and but still not hit his main target. He may do it this season!

But to assume that an unproven coach, a no.2 has the ability to do what Emery has already done is reckless.

How about competing with them?!
Just because we don't have the same war chest as city, it doesn't mean we cannot push or challenge them. Just look at real madrid when they went splurging on the galacticos and failed to win anything. Look Leicester. Look at Monaco, look at Dortmund this year. These teams are challenging without spend big bucks.
You need good team set up, manager with good instructions, a group of players willing to work hard all season with good energy, and of course, luck.

Emery is over achieving with our squad and Sarri is under achieving. Do you understand the difference?

So sack Unai and put us in charge with a guy who has never managed a team in his life. The logic with some on here is very strange at times. Thier is no way that Pep gives Arteta the reigns at City , no chance! and let’s not forget he’s part of a coaching team with the best players in the premier league. Unai has had little funds and has 80% Wengers squad. We are on the verge of a European final and a point or two off top 4!. Don’t be ridiculous.

We weren’t expected to be anywhere near these teams in the first place. Who had us dwn for top 4 pre season?! No one. This was a work in progress and we still have a chance this season.
