He's been gifted a squad much better than Jol could dream of and he insists on exposing the players every game, I was about to say week in week out but that's not the case this season.I like him as a person and for the most part like the football we play. With the squad we have he’s done pretty well. After years of anti football he’s been a breath of fresh air and with investment in key areas we should see a considerable improvement. I also like Martin Jol but it didn’t stop me criticising how we invited pressure at the end of matches either.
It's fucking shocking how bad we are defensively.I agree that baldy is the root of the problem and has been for 20+ years, but a manager who cant coach a defence with 5 internationals in it how to defend a corner isnt the answer either
Steer that sarc to those who came at me telling me I was talking bollocks.Everyone stand and recognise this genius.

most of defending set pieces comes down to bravery and having men that are willing to stick their head on the ball.....we got too many pussies in the side who are scared of heading the ball and getting clattered...Hire a set piece coach FFS mate!
He won the fa cup too. Imagine us winning the fa cup! Bloody hell. Seems unbelievable! He also has owners heavily backing him too. It’s unfair on ange to compare. One owners desperate for the title & backing it up. The other happy with CL place & the ££ it brings in. .2020–: Arteta era
On 20 December 2019, Woolwich appointed former club captain Mikel Arteta as the new head coach. Woolwich finished the league season in eighth, their lowest finish since 1994–95, but beat Chelsea 2–1 to earn a record-extending 14th FA Cup win.[99] After the season, Arteta's title was changed from head coach to manager.[100] On 18 April 2021, Woolwich were announced as a founding club of the breakaway European competition The Super League;[101] they withdrew from the competition two days later amid near-universal condemnation.[102] Woolwich finished the 2020–21 season in eighth place once again, not qualifying for a European competition for the first time in 26 years.
It took Arteta time to work it all out and design the squad for his requirements.
Thought there was always a clamour for him to be sacked, the fans, ultimately, gave him that time and now are being rewarded with consistent, quality performances.
2nd half was brave they did come out and dictate terms, was late but still you know it showed something sort ofThe problem Ange has got is that he talks such a fucking good game, it’s inevitable that he will get judged against those standards.
I’m really, really, *really* fucking bored of him using the word brave when we’re the diametric opposite.
One of Arteta's greatest accomplishments has been convincing his rivals to stick with their managers even when they've been failing due to that bad run he had.He won the fa cup too. Imagine us winning the fa cup! Bloody hell. Seems unbelievable! He also has owners heavily backing him too. It’s an unfair on ange to compare. One owners desperate for the title & backing it up.

It's almost as if they've got a manager who adapts the teams approach based on what they're facing, a radical concept around here I'm sure because of the Aussie fundamentalist and the followers of his cult.Apparently his system was going to do wonders against sides that attacked us, how did that turn out today? Or is it because Assna didn’t actually attack us like a bunch of brainless cunts and adjusted their tactics based on their recent run of games and the opponent they faced? Or is it because the ref fucked us? Or I don’t know, insert some excuses like 15 days break or Hojbjerg OG. You’ll figure it out.
Hope I eat my words but he's gone by Christmas. The defending is bordering on incompetence at this point. And that's even with pretty good CBs, we're not talking about Chiriches here.
There’s nothing brave about going for it when you’re three nil down at home and the opposition sit back.2nd half was brave they did come out and dictate terms, was late but still you know it showed something sort of

"I like him as a person" - You don't know him "mate". All you know about him is the waffle he serves up in pressers and the dross we have to watch on the pitch.
What about the football do you like? Is it the possession in our own half doing fuck all? Is it the fullbacks and midfielders being instructed to fuck off up the pitch and leave the 2 centre backs by themselves? Is it watching our keeper do fuck all to catch the ball and the rest doing what they're told by Mile fucking Jedinak at set pieces?
Don't fucking talk about Jol as if he was as clueless as this mug.
