Richard Keys says £158,000-a-week Arsenal man is ‘behaving like a fool’ now

Richard Keys has once again had a go at Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta for his antics on the touchline during the win over Brighton and Hove Albion.

The Spaniard is loved by Arsenal fans for his behaviour. The passion he shows lifts 𒊎everyone in the stadium, but some pundits don’t like it 🔥one bit. Keys is one of them.

Richard Keys tells Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta to stop ‘behaving like a fool’

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has been in the news𓆏 a lot this season for all the 🌞wrong reasons.

The £158,000-a-week () Spaniard wears his heart on the sleeve. He plays the game with hisℱ players and is extremely emotional on the touchline – in moments of joy as well as disappointme𝄹nt.

Arteta’s remarks after the controversial defeat at Newcastle United made a lot of headlines and even saw the FA charge him. An independent panel rightly dismissed that and cleared him of any wrongdoing.

Before that, Arteta received his third yellow card of the season for excessive celebration. He was slapped with a touchline ban that forced him to watch hi🌊s side lose to Aston Villa𝄹 from the stands.

Against Brighton in the very next game, Arteta picked up another yellow card for 💝dissent, and Keys has now had a real go at him.

He wrote on his : “Come on Mikel. You sat in the stands last weekend and in the same 💖week somehow got away with your rant at Newcastle. Don’t get me wrong – I’m glad you did. I have always defended a manager’s right to express his thoughts after a game.

“But stop it. Stop behaving like a fool in your technical area – aꦆnd stop taking us all for fools. It’s not clever. It’s not necessary. And you can control it. You deserved your latest booking. Let’s make it the last one eh?”

Mikel Arteta did nothing wrong

Th🅺e whole outburst against 🦩Mikel Arteta’s antics has gone a bit overboard, hasn’t it?

The Arsenal boss, or any manager for that matter, should be allowed to disagree with a decision on the field. There is nothing 🦩wrong in having your say as long you’re not abusive towards an official.

From what we could see, Arteta was not happy when it initially seemed like the referee was not going to book Kaoru Mitoma for a foul after showing a yellow card to Ben White for a similar offence. The Spaniar🃏d was seen waving his hands in the air inও disagreement.

The referee, Tim Robinson, decided to book Mitoma but then ran over to the touchline to bandish a yellow card to the Arsen꧙al mana☂ger too.

That, in our opinion, was completely unnecessary, and if this does not change, managers will end up missing at least four or five games every season jusꦇt because they showed some emotion on the touchline.
