Such an honest guy in his post match interview, never blames the referee or the injuries.  I hope we back him in the market and work as hard as we can to make sure we spend to within an inch of the life of PSR. Quality Manager who gets every drop out of these players, despite some of them being less than the quality we need to win a league.  Love the man.
He's a complete class act. I said to someone while the game was ongoing that come the full time interviews he never blames the officials for anything. I'd argue that Saka could have been booked twice and Merino was lucky not to get a second yellow for dragging down Rogers, and while I couldn't face MoTD tonight I know he'll have not mentioned either.

Just seen his post-match presser on Twitter. He was very positive. Remarkably so, given the second half pasting we took tonight.

He clearly thinks we are on an upward trajectory.

Talksport having a go at him for not shaking Arteta's hand at the end of the game.  Predictably, revelling in the result...

Did he not shake it before disappearing early down the tunnel as I've seen happen a few times before with other managers when the game is done and dusted?

They most use every opportunity to shed positives to the media darlings.

I thinks it’s just the media trying make a story out of nothing.

There's nothing else for the likes of TalkSport to talk about.

He said he waited for Arteta, but he was so busy jumping all over his coaching staff that he couldn't be bothered to wait any longer. Something and nothing.

I'd shake Arteta's neck I reckon. Not in a saucy way. More of, you fucking lego haired Trukey teeth ****** sort of way, you know, casual.

Unai= Captain Scarlett, indestructible.

Arteta = Captain Black, Mysteron Agent.

No way is Unai going to shake his hand.
