this has to be racism

[Sleaky72]

Partey looking great and Fofana(Monaco) who we were linked with, looks pretty decent.
This Rice guy has some pretty West Ham like touches on the ball. That’s a lot of money to invest and not get immediate returns … we shall be watching

this has to be racism

Ahh DD na wa for you - I dont agree the way the short man is treating the brother however - coaches have done this to players of different races .

Arteta's man management skills has only been in question to some of us. When we complained about his handling of Auba - you DD defended him if I remember .

Now you say his racist with this.

Pepe was a flop for the money we paid for him and the wururu around his purchase would have also been hanging around his neck.

This season will be interesting.
Arteta is making a rod for his own
back. He needs to get his shyt together
really quick. A slow start next weekend @ the Emirates and those little cracks in the ships hull, will become full blown massive leaks.
Sitting back and making popcorn.
It will be a season like none other

Arteta on Gabriel Jesus knee injury: “He had a little procedure this morning, he’s injuried unfortunately”. #AFC

“He’s had some discomfort in his knee that caused him some issues so they had to go in”.

“He’s going to be out for a few weeks”.

Forgot to add this

Loving the game of Jurrien Timber.
Think he can do a job as a #6.
But that’s for another day.

Gabriel Jesus: Arsenal striker to miss start of Premier League season

[Waffiman]

Wetin Balogun do Arteta? Some claim it is his attitude. I know I don't like the fact that he is not even getting a chance.

[Coach]

@SDL, not unusual practice in business. In the finance sector, outgoing employees are hurried out of the door, desk cleared or not cleared. Every additional second in the office could cost millions. Clients, deals, data. Much to lose. In many instances, resignations are effected immediately.

In similar vain, what good would it serve having the outgoing Pepe around camp? How committed will his efforts be knowing he has no part to play? What’s more, how distracting and potentially destabilising will talks of contract offers and cash?

Long before the race card, would consider this common sense. Henderson didn’t travel with the Liverpool squad amidst rumours of Arabian nights, anti-Geordieism? Fabinho the same. Common practice to keep deserters away from the infantry. Pepe has been the epitome of underwhelming, an absolute shambles, if training in isolation makes departure more likely, brilliant.

Thats always the accusation when fans want to simplify a problem and they like the coach. The player's reputation is always attacked.

Even worse, they see a confident Black young man with a big individual style and they don't like it because it does not conform to the subservient, quiet understated way they want in a black young men.

This people have to get it into their heads, not every Black kid is like Eddie or Bukayo

Almost no one at Arsenal agrees Eddie is better than Balogun, but for whatever reason they want to sell Balogun. Most of the fans have bought into this and most of them don't even know the player. I am unhappy about this whole saga.

Yep.

Now Arteta must earn his money.

He is a serious quality player. One who walks into the team. I agree with you, a number 6 is my choice for him.

Very true. But you need to delete your moronic accusation of racism above.

Anyway, be you. I don’t have strength for your wahala.

It's simply a case of man management. Arteta is the type of person that you disagree with once and it becomes an issue for ever.

Waffiman,
Highly doubt it has anything to do with him being “a confident black man or whether he’s subservient or not”. After all it was the same Fola B that they talked into signing a new contract when it seemed he was sure to leave. It’s Arteta’s team, and I sure as hell don’t agree with everything he does, but highly doubt it has to do with skin tone.

Some people just don’t make for good work place chemistry with each other. These are just facts. The only caveat to this can be exceptional talent. Love Fola B. Been his biggest supporter on this site, but his style doesn’t suit Arteta ball. Same for Auba, Ozil and Pepe.

Wonder why Densch Frimpong and David Bentley didn’t work with Wenger, while he was wasted time with the likes of Denilson, Clichy and El Postman??

It’s all about the coach and his idea of a fit for his team. How can a coach love one black player and have an issue with another black man cuz of racial animus????! Do all black people get along or love each other??? People think please…

Bam!!!
He’s become Pep clone … in that regard

Interesting point the bold part.
Could the current situation be due to Fola's statement earlier this summer that "he won't be going on another loan"?
