Man United fans respond to Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta’s ‘shameless’ comments as Erik ten Hag comparison made
Of the two managers, it’s safe to say that Mikel Arteta’s time at Arsenal has been a lot more fruitful than Erik ten Hag’s at Manchester United.
Ten Hag was axed by Man United after their project simply became untenable under the Dutchman, whereas Arteta is still going strong at Arsenal.
Appointed in 2019, Arteta has now overseen 255 matches as Arsenal boss, a period in which the Gunners have seriously impꦓroved.
Before the Spaniard arrived from Manchester City, where he was Pep Guardiola’s second-h🎃and man, Arsenal we𝓀re nowhere near competing for a Premier League title.
Now, with Arsenal dr💜opping points of late, it’s seen as a travesty if they are not up amongst it – standards have shifted.
Man United fans slam Mikel Arteta for repeating Erik ten Hag’s trophy comments
That being said, Arteta is now being held in the same breath as Ten Hag for some ‘shameless’ comments he made about his trophy wins at 😼Arsenal thus far.
Ten Hag was often mocked for ꦇhow he pointed out how successful he had been at Old Trafford because his side lifted the EFL Cup and the FA Cup amid some 🎃seriously disappointing league form.
Now, Arteta disagreed with a reporter who mentioned that he had won only one trophy by saying: “We won the Charity Shi🎶eld twice, no? So we’ve won three trophie🅷s.”
ಌUnited fans in particular took their chance to mock Arteta on X, saying he’s just as bad 🐈as Ten Hag.
One wrote: “Arteta dropping comments like Ten Hag. Arsenal fans wil﷽l be going throuཧgh that pain I went through every time Ten Hag dropped those comments.”
Another replied to the comments and said: “This is Erik Ten H🌸ag, I give Arteta 6 months.”
Some even just then realised that Ten Hag had actua💞lly won more trophies than Arteta in England anyway, a record that was met with equal bemusement.
🧔“Arteta is really trying t🔥o not be behind Ten Hag’s 2 trophy tally..”
And then there were also a few Arsenal fans who were pleading with their manager not to mimi꧑c Ten Hag, who ultimately had an unsuccessful time at Old Trafford.
“Please Arteta, don’t wear Te⛦n Hag’s shameless shirt.”
An🤪d for good measure, P📖iers Morgan also weighed in on the comments himself.
Time for Arteta to deliver the trophies that Arsenal deserve
Following last weekend’s draw against Everton, Arteta was criticised for a strange decision in that game – a🍬 tough few weeks for the Arsena🌞l boss.
But neither Arteta or anyone at Arse🐻nal will be panicking right ꦚnow, even if opposition fans on X are predicting a downfall for their rivals.
As mentioned, Arsenal have come so♕ far under A💟rteta and the Spaniard only deserves praise, not derision.
It’s impossible to compare how much Arteta has progressed Arsenal in comparison to Ten Hag at United, a team who Rubeജn Amorim is now looking to fix.
But it is clear that Arteta is feeling the pressure of his own success somewhat – he needs to soon deliver a trophy that his tea𒁃m’s football deserves.
