Premier League: Young inexperienced coach emerges as the next permanent Arsenal manager


Arsenal legend emerges as a top target to be the next permanent Arsenal manager. Arsenal finally fired Unai Emery last Friday after several calls from fans for them to show the former Sevilla boss the door. Football fans from around the world can obtain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.
Freddie Ljungberg has since taken over as their head coach on an interim basis. The Swede helped them pick up a point in their game against Norwich on his managerial debut last weekend.
However, reports claiming that the club has made Patrick Vieira their top target to be their next permanent manager.

The 43-year-old is an Arsenal legend who has been building a career for himself as a manager. He currently manages Nice in the French top flight and has a contract there until the summer of 2021.
Arsenal has had a look at the likes of Mikel Arteta, Carlo Ancelotti, Brendan Rodgers, among others, but the report claims that Viera is the club’s top target right now.
Viera had commented on Emery at the weekend and admitted that Nice could also fire him too.
Patrick Vieira’s review:
“It’s a very difficult job and I realize that. It’s always sad to see a coach lose his job.
“Today it’s his turn and tomorrow maybe it will be me. When you throw yourselves into this job, you have to expect to be sacked one day.

“There are things I don’t control. People say a lot of things in this industry, whether they’re true or not. I have nothing to say on the matter. Like you, I read things, watch things and listen to things. That’s all. I have never said I wanted to leave Nice!
“Maybe one day I’ll be sacked without wanting to leave Nice. I know where I am and I know where I’m going and it doesn’t bother me.
“It’s true that this evening I would have preferred more questions about the performance of my players rather than on my future.”

Whether this report is true or not is up to each individual to decide for themselves. Personally, I can believe that the board would look at a former player that has some management experience, albeit limited. They could easily be thinking he knows the club’s DNA and is better placed than Ljungberg or even Arteta.
One thing I do know is that they need to resolve this sooner rather than later before it becomes too much of a distraction.

Premier League: Are Arsenal’s problems due to the coach or the management


Last weekend, while watching our game against Norwich, I overheard two passionate Arsenal fans discussing Arsenal and what they felt the problem was. Football fans from around the world can attain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its astonishing performances.
While one posited that Arsenal’s problem was that of a good coach; the other felt getting a new coach would not solve our problems. According to him, Arsenal’s problems can be addressed with the transfer window.
He strongly felt Arsenal knew how to solve the problems but they are refusing to do just that, for reasons best known to them. Now, let us analyze it this way; why would a fan feel the board of directors at Arsenal is intentionally refusing to solve the very visible problems at the club.

It is a case of trying to be financially prudent at the expense of building a title-winning team. Or is it just a case of the board of directors being too scared of Arsenal’s success and losing the team to a richer investor?
When Wenger was the coach of Arsenal, every transfer window was not adequately utilized; we were either over-strengthening a part of the team at the expense of other departments, or we ended up not signing any player at all.
Wenger’s tenure:
We have had press conferences in the past where Arsene Wenger would say we had the money to buy players but could not find the quality needed to improve the team. What an excuse! Funny!!!
Fast forward to when Emery was the coach of Arsenal; Emery was still in charge of coaching Arsenal at last transfer window but we never signed the quality defender we needed. Was this a fault of Emery, or the board of directors not just supporting the coach enough. Your guess is as good a guess as mine.
Now, let us face the truth. Nobody wants to be restricted in his or her discharge of duties and that includes football coaches. When you employ somebody, you give the person the necessary tools needed to work.

Fine, clubs are taking transfer decisions away from the coaches; but even at that, the coaches should be considered, when signing or buying players. We don’t want a case whereby a coach may refuse to work with certain players because he didn’t sign them.
While searching for a good coach to train our players, let us also be ready to support our coach with the right set of players needed to succeed.

Premier League: Freddie’s insightful presser gives hope ahead of Brighton
As a football fan, you always look for the hole in a new situation and before the Norwich game, I think we all did, as we backed Freddie, hoping for an instant turnaround. Football activists from around the world can get Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its spectacular performances.
Of course, it wasn’t to be and yet again we saw some pretty shoddy defending that cost us all three points as well as a second-half in which we once again made a relegation-threatened side looks pretty nifty indeed.
So there was a wee bit of despondency I included on Monday morning as we realize that actually we just have a collective of players who are so out of form and playing badly, even if there were a few positives, which Freddie pointed out in his press conference.
But I tell you what, I have read the transcript of his presser yesterday and I must say, I found myself a little heartened by some of the things he said.
Freddie spoke about recognizing that the opposition was winning the eight-yard sprint the battle, which is where we were getting done on Sunday, then talking about how he knows how to correct that.

Some of it might even be played changes because sometimes you can’t change the DNA of a player. For example, Guendouzi and Xhaka aren’t winning any sprint races when the ball transitions from the attacking third back towards our defensive third.
Guidance to some players:
Maybe you can teach Guendouzi or Xhaka not to sit so high so they don’t get embroiled in a foot race. Or maybe you can bring one out in the place of somebody who can. Either way, if you have at least acknowledged and been public about what went wrong, you’re at least showing the world that you have the knowledge and belief you can easily correct it.
And that’s what gives me cause for optimism this morning. In one press conference, Freddie has given us more than in 18 months of Unai Emery. Perhaps there was a communication issue, perhaps Unai did talk about this stuff but it just didn’t get picked up at these press conferences.
But I was just pleased to hear a coach looking at correcting errors in his team, rather than talking about how we are in a ‘process’ or some other nonsense like that. I’m digging into Unai a bit and before I started writing this morning I said to myself that I wouldn’t bother.
That I’d take the approach of Ljungberg yesterday and say “that was then, we must look forward”, but it’s hard not to read those snippets of the Swede talking about his approach and wonder if communication by Emery was not his biggest downfall.

Imagine if he’s just been in a training session with the players and they’ve just heard that kind of Intel, rather than Emery and the notorious video that we saw of him repeatedly saying “calm! Calm! Calm” There really isn’t a comparison and my hope for tomorrow is that we start to see a difference at home to Brighton. In the last Premier League game against Norwich City, new Arsenal boss Freddie Ljungberg refused to bring on Nicolas Pepe, the club’s record signing.
He also referenced the data he’s been looking at which seemed to show that we were better in getting behind Norwich than we have been all season and, once again, you hear things like that and start to believe that he has a plan for us to be more attacking.
Freddie’s Opinion:
We can’t defend as it is so we might as well go ‘gung-ho’ in my opinion. Let’s see if we can flood teams with our attacking talent. Unai promised that when he arrived and delivered little evidence of it. Freddie has a chance to be a man of his word.

And words might be something he has with Wenger soon. He also said he’s going to talk to his old boss and for me, that’s a good sign too. Whatever we thought of Wenger’s last couple of years, his philosophy has always been the same and if he can impart some knowledge on Freddie and give some advice then that sounds good to me.
He doesn’t pick the team, half the players aren’t really Wenger players anymore, and he’s been away from the club for a long enough time that his influence has waned, so why wouldn’t you want to lean on some pearls of wisdom from one of Arsenal’s most successful managers?
I hope that call goes in soon and I hope it results in some useful nuggets that can be translated into the attacking ethos of our team. We need it. We need it fast. There’s still probably another training session to be had today by Freddie and hopefully, they’re going through this fantastical new attacking approach that we’ve been hoping for.

And I hope they’re ready for Brighton at home. It’s time we got back to winning ways. Catch y’all tomorrow. Maybe – I have my work Christmas party so depending on how much like death warmed up I feel like, I may or may not be kinder to stare at my phone for 45 minutes in the morning.

Premier League: Granit Xhaka deserves respect and is 100 percent professional claims, former Gunner

Stephan Lichtsteiner comes out in support of Granit Xhaka and opines on what went wrong with Unai Emery. Lichtsteiner claims that Emery struggled with Arsenal’s big stars and insists that Xhaka deserves respect. Football fanatics from around the world can obtain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.
Former Arsenal manager, Emery may have retained his job beyond last week if the Spaniard was able to deal with the big-name stars at Arsenal, according to Stephan Lichtsteiner. Emery was fired after a poor run of form, but he fell out with most of his players and some reports even claimed that he lost the dressing room before he was fired.
“I’d say he is a good trainer, a good coach, but maybe he struggled with the top players,” Lichtsteiner told

“With the big players, he hasn’t maybe the relationship to bring more out [of them] and get the top performances. Maybe that point I can say something negative, but the rest was almost everything positive.”
Stephan Lichtsteiner left Arsenal but still speaking for Xhaka:
The current Augsburg defender left the Emirates stadium after just a season but he was one of the most underperforming players during his stint at the Emirates. He also weighed in on Xhaka’s meltdown and is convinced that the former Arsenal captain deserves more respect.
“I understand both sides, you know? I understand the fans because there is an ambition and they want to win,” he said. “They are not happy, of course, but I understand Granit also because this [reaction] is just human. He deserves more respect because he gives everything for Arsenal. I see how he works; he is 100 percent professional.

“On On the other side, the bigger the club is the bigger the pressure. As a football player, you need to manage that pressure because it’s part of the game.
“It’s normal in football, especially when you are at a big club, this pressure, so it’s completely human what has happened with Granit but I hope for him, and for Arsenal, that they are going to find a good solution. It’s important for the team and for him also.”

I am not sure that Lichtsteiner has the respect or gravitas for the Arsenal fans to listen to him. He was utterly dreadful in an Arsenal shirt and did not exactly put his body on the line. I also suspect that many will disagree with him about respecting Xhaka, not after he swore at the fans.

Premier League: Freddie explains Pepe decision after Norwich draw


With Arsenal in need of a goal during the second half of yesterday’s 2-2 draw with Norwich, it was somewhat surprising that Freddie Ljungberg didn’t turn to Nicolas Pepe. Football fanatics from around the world can obtain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.
The interim head coach did introduce Bukayo Saka in the 78th minute, and Gabriel Martinelli very late on, but the £72m summer arrival from Lille remained unused by the end.
It led to a question after the game as to why the record signing had not played any part, to which Ljungberg replied, “Pepe is a very good player. As I said, I try to look at what players have done in training and that’s how I judge them.”
"What I saw in the first 30 minutes and the belief and how we played that was good. Offensively that was good.

"I don't know if you saw it but when we went 1-0 down, the players weren't shaking their heads, they were actually going 'come on guys we can sort this out'. That shows they believe they are quality players.
"We need to change a negative trend plus, with our run that was a difficult game and the players did really well."
Ljungberg added that everyone has a clean slate after he took over from Unai Emery on Friday.
Freddie Ljungberg Further Added:
The Swede said: "I haven't had that word with them but that's how it works for me. I've been here for three months and last year I was with the Under-23s so I saw every first-team game so I have an opinion of how we can play but I try to see it as everyone has a fair chance.
It’s an interesting answer and one that will surely raise further questions about the Ivorian’s slow start to life in North London.
Perhaps the frustration felt with Unai Emery meant it was easy to point the finger at him for not using the winger, but if Freddie is also raising some doubts, perhaps there are issues behind the scenes we’re not aware of.


Pepe has played 785 of a potential 1260 Premier League minutes so far this season, some of which can be put down to his late arrival, and a summer in which he didn’t have a proper pre-season.
But its December now, so fitness issues should be a consideration, and he’s played just 58 minutes in total of our last four league games. He was also left on the bench for the duration of our 2-1 Europa League defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt last week.
It does suggest there’s work to do, both on the player’s side and the club in order to figure out how to get the best out a player that costs so much money, but for now, it remains an unhappy time all concerned.

Premier League: Arsenal boss Freddie Ljungberg makes worrying Nicolas Pepe comments


In the last Premier League game against Norwich City, new Arsenal boss Freddie Ljungberg refused to bring on Nicolas Pepe, the club’s record signing. Football fanatics from around the world can obtain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.
Despite making three changes, people were a little surprised that Pepe was left on the bench. The game ended 2-2 as the Gunners could not find the winner.
Speaking after the game, Ljungberg commented on his refusal to bring on Pepe and that has caused a little concern. He said:
“Nicolas Pepe is a very good player, but I looked at what we did in training and what I see every day and that is how I judge it.
“Everybody in the squad is important but I look to how players train in the week and I felt what we needed at that time, they were putting a lot of pressure on us, Bukayo has an enormous pace and I thought he would be good.”

From his comments, it could be said that he does not feel that Pepe was up to the mark. This can be further evidenced by the fact that he brought on Saka and Martinelli instead of the Ivorian. The going has not been too smooth for the winger as he has struggled to establish himself in the Gunners team.
Pepe’s Performance:
He has scored 3 goals and bagged few assists as well but fans will certainly be expecting more from someone who has cost a lot of money. After scoring the winner against Vitoria in the Europa League, he has not been picked in the team as much as he would have liked.
Former Gunners manager Unai Emery who was very inconsistent with his team selection decided to leave Pepe out of the squad in the past few matches. This is why it was surprising to see even Ljungberg leaves him out of the playing eleven.
That game against the Portuguese team is incidentally the last game that Arsenal won. Results have not gone to plan and it is on players such as Pepe to help the team come good again.

It is possible that Pepe is finding the physicality of England a little hard to deal with but there is no doubt that he is one talented player as we have seen in flashes.
Pepe will eventually come good but fans will be hoping that this happens sooner rather than later. It will take more than one game for Ljungberg to put his stamp on the Gunners’ squad and he may soon start looking towards Pepe to contribute in an effective manner.

Premier League: Dan’s Player Ratings for Norwich v Arsenal Leno earned us the point


So, despite sacking Unai Emery and playing yet another team in the relegation zone, Arsenal still can’t win a game. We have now gone 8 winless games in a row, In fact, we were lucky not to lose it in the end and it was only Bernd Leno’s heroics that saved us. Football activists from around the world can get Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its spectacular performances.
So here are Dan’s Player Ratings for our draw with Norwich….
Leno:
Best performance of the season. One of his saves was so good it was the equivalent of a goal. He must be wondering what’s going on in front of him….

Chambers:
Good on the ball and defending one-on-one. He needs to find the balance between when to go forward and not, as he was caught out of position a couple of times, including for their second goal.
Mustafi:
This was his chance to prove his point and he failed. The Arsenal defense does not seem to close down which I’m not sure is the player's choice or tactical. At times he was isolated and very much last ditch.
Luiz:
Did not find himself as isolated as Mustafi but guilty as anyone in terms of not closing down. There is enough experience in the Brazilian to be communicating more to his peers.

Kolasinac:
He got stuck in physically but was not targeted as much as the other flank. His final ball still not good enough.
Xhaka:
Tactically he was let down by being asked to be the main DM. At on time he gave the ball away which nearly led to a goal, but given what’s gone on it was a solid return to Premiership action.
Guendouzi:
He has been a huge favorite of mine, my player of our season. Yet it might be time to take him out of the team with the pressure affecting our youngsters. You can never fault his energy but he was giving the ball away from a lot and slowing down our attacks.
Willock:
The game passed him by. I would like to see him in a two-man combo as I don’t think he’s ready to be our main attacking midfielder.

Ozil:
His set-pieces were lethal, on another day these could have led to more than just the one goal. His experience was vital when the team was tiring as he had the ability to hold the ball up and win free-kicks.
Auba:
I often struggle to rate him. He does his job as in that he scores two goals and showed a great mentality to successfully retake the penalty.
Laca:
Would never fault his work rate but the ball didn’t drop for him.

Torreria:
Lots of energy. Don’t underestimate the couple of interceptions he made to stop Norwich from winning the game.
Saka:
Got in promising positions but his final ball was poor didn’t justify coming on ahead of Pepe.
Martinelli:
Not enough time to make an impact really should have come on at least 10 minutes earlier.

Premier League: Arsenal fans praise 27-year-old’s display vs Norwich City


Some Arsenal fans have hailed the performance of goalkeeper Bernd Leno following the club’s 2-2 Premier League against Norwich City on the road. Football activists from around the world can acquire Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its spectacular performances.
The Gunners had gone into the Canaries clash with the chance to end a seven-match winless streak in all competitions but the performance was all too familiar with the defense continue to possess a sense of vulnerability.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was instrumental in the attack as he was able to find the net for the Gunners in either half but it was ultimately left to Leno to save the side from suffering a potentially embarrassing loss.
The Germany international was kept busy for most of the second period with The canaries trying to find the winner and he had to come up with a string of top-notch saves to hand the Gunners with a hard-fought point.

As a result, a number of Gunners supporters are grateful for the shot-stopper’s performance and some have taken to twitter to praise the 27-year-old keeper.
Bernd Leno Saves in Premier League:
Leno has not received much assistance from a fragile-looking backline this term and following the Norwich clash, he has made 59 saves in the Premier League, which remains more than any goalkeeper.
While the statistic makes for good reading on a personal level for Leno, it is a concern for the team, given the defense, has failed to restrict the opposition players from striking at goal at regular intervals.
Sunday’s draw at Norwich has meant that the Gunners have made their worst start to a top-flight campaign in more than four decades. They are presently seven points off the top four after 14 games into the season.

Cascarino believes they should focus their attention towards Leno:
“The one position I’m a little bit concerned about with Arsenal, and it worried me watching them last season is the keeper, I think Leno is a big player for them this year, he’s got to be better. Last season, he was punching balls that were quite easily catchable and I was thinking, ‘Wow, you’ve got to be better than that, you’ve got to be more commanding.”

Premier League: Many Arsenal fans fume at Xhaka for what he did on Thurs Gunner sphere


Arsenal’s season just continues to dredge new depths at the moment. Thursday’s 2-1 defeat to Eintracht Frankfurt means that the Gunners are now on their worst run of form since 1992. Football fanatics from around the world can obtain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.
And it looks increasingly unlikely that manager Unai Emery has a long term future at the club. Chief amongst the controversies and issues that have blighted them this season, however, is the ongoing tension surrounding Granit Xhaka.

The Swiss midfielder was stripped of the captaincy after a public falling out with fans following his substitution against Crystal Palace at the back end of October, and while speculation has been rife about his future at the club, he did make a return to the first team on Thursday for the first time since that incident.
That in itself wasn’t enough to spark ire from fans, but Xhaka’s decision to greet some of his friends who were playing for Frankfurt upon the final whistle did not go down well at all. The 27-year-old could be seen laughing and joking in the after match of the damaging loss, and for many supporters, that was unacceptable.
In fairness to Xhaka:
Should he have maybe waited until he was out of sight before catching up with his mates instead of giving off the distinct impression of somebody who wasn’t overly hurt by the defeat but does that means he deserves to be chastised like this?

Xhaka is allowed friends who play for other teams. To think otherwise is naive, and to get angry about it is a little bit immature, truth is told. The midfielder actually had one of his better games of the season on Wednesday.
Making three tackles, three key passes, two successful dribbles, and registering a pass completion rate of around 88%, as per who scored. Instead of focusing on the positives, however, it feels as if some fans are using him as a scapegoat for another underwhelming team display.
If Wednesday has taught us anything, it’s that Xhaka is still willing to put in the hard graft for Arsenal. It would have been easy for him to let his head drop after a difficult few weeks, but instead, he came out swinging.

That being said, the fact that some supporters have chosen to react like this almost certainly proves that his days at the club are numbered. It would take a miracle to transform some of the ardent views held by certain factions of the fan base, and due to that alone, Xhaka may have to go.

Premier League: Arsenal chiefs shocked by Unai Emery decision, he’s on the brink of sack


After a bad run of form in the Premier League, it appears that the pressure has become too much to handle for Arsenal and Unai Emery. Football fanatics from around the world can obtain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.
The Spaniard is now on the brink of being sacked. As per the latest reports from the Daily Telegraph, the sacking of the manager is imminent and could happen anytime soon.
Despite the manager he insisting that he had the support of the club’s hierarchy, it seems that they have reached a breaking point.

New managers in list:
The overwhelming feeling within the club is that unless he is somehow able to make a dramatic turnaround in the fortunes of the team, he will be removed from his post.
The report claims that the Arsenal chiefs were shocked to see Unai Emery give his players time-off from training ahead of Frankfurt clash as Emery is said to have felt that his players need a psychological break.         
Telegraph further claims that the club has taken this a step further and has already started looking for people who can replace Emery? Among the candidates, the two men with the strongest chances of becoming the next Arsenal boss could be Massimiliano Allegri and Nuno Espirito Santo.

Allegri has not yet returned to management since he was removed from the post at Italian club Juventus. Santo on the other hand is the manager of Wolves who has been hugely impressive since making a return to the Premier League.
It is now looking more likely than ever that the Europa League game against Eintracht Frankfurt could very well be his last match with the Gunners. After a tricky start last season, it seemed that the club was really going in the right direction.
Emery’s end as manager:
But a severe dip in form towards the end of last season and coupled with a crushing defeat in the Europa League final has sent the club on a downward spiral.

Now, it would be in the best interest of everyone involved if Emery is no longer the manager at Arsenal. Getting someone like Allegri would bring some structure to the club that has been lacking for some time now.
Emery has been given time by the club but it is clear that he is no longer the right man for the job. Fans will be hoping that whoever the new manager happens to be, they will get the team back into the Champions League.

Premier League: Three English managers Arsenal should consider as Emery replacement


English managers may not have exotic surnames but that does not mean they should be dismissed as candidates. There has been a clamor for foreign coaches with expansive ideas ever since Arsene Wenger took over at Arsenal but that may soon be changing and Arsenal could, along with Chelsea, be at the forefront of that change. Football fanatics from around the world can obtain Premier League Tickets online to enjoy its stunning performances.
Obviously three of the top managers in English football are foreign, well at least by reputations. Pep Guardiola, Jurgen Klopp and I hate to say it, Jose Mourinho. But there is a clutch of quality English managers that arguably do a better job then a lot of their foreign counterparts.

Arsenal’s new manager:
Who are the three managers up for the sack right now? Manuel Pellegrini, Marco Silva and Unai Emery who is among the mangers that have been getting glowing praise? Chris Wilder, Eddie Howe, and Graham Potter
Of course, Nuno Santo is also getting highly praised at Wolves but why choose him over say, Chris Wilder? Why take a chance of Mikel Arteta when Eddie Howe has done an astonishing job with limited resources at Bournemouth.
Graham Potter not even being mentioned when he had done a remarkable job at Brighton I mean, who knows the history of Potter at Ostersund in Sweden I do, I am also aware of how that club has disintegrated since he left them.

Argument on English managers:
There is the argument that any of these English managers could fail to take the step up, but so could Nuno Santo, he was hardly a roaring success at Valencia and Porto. I am not suggesting that Howe, Wilder, Potter or even Sean Dyche will be a success but neither am I convinced they would do any worse than some of the names linked with the Arsenal job.
Chelsea took a chance with Frank Lampard, albeit forced by circumstances, and it is working out terrifically well for them. There are huge advantages of taking a chance on an English manager, communication being the most obvious.
But they are generally ignored and the only reason that Howe, Wilder, and Dyche are doing well is that they were forced to get promotion to the Premier League to make their mark. Potter got his chance because Brighton was seen as a guaranteed relegation fodder.

Arsenal can hardly do worse than going with an English manager until the end of the season; they are unlikely to make the top-four and will not be relegated, so why not take a chance until the end of the season.
