Will he delete all references to City on social media like he did to Arsenal when he joined us? Ha.
They were openly racist towards him. I wouldn’t have been bothered if he’d pulled a Mooney at them at the end of that celebration.Although to be fair to them Adebayor deserved the stick he got after that famous celebration...Lol !
You were too quick to criticise:-Interesting , no good luck message from city.
Also the Arsenal website has no mention of City , where he is joining from.
Mikel Arteta has left his position as Manchester City’s Assistant Manager to join Arsenal as Head Coach.
Mikel joined City in July 2016 as a valued member of Pep Guardiola’s backroom staff – and following the departure of Domenec Torrent to New York City FC on June 11 2018, he stepped up to become de facto assistant manager.
Pep Guardiola said of Arteta’s departure: “Mikel has been an excellent coach for Manchester City. He has shown impressive dedication, hard work and knowledge of football during his time here and has been a real contributor to the Club’s achievements over the past years. We all wish him well in his new role; I am sure he is ready for it.”
Director of Football Txiki Begiristain added: “Mikel, as a member of Pep’s team, has contributed significantly to the Club in his time here in Manchester. His work on the training field and detailed preparations have helped us become a side that wins with regularity and in style. This move to Arsenal is a further step in his football development and I am sure he will become a top-class coach.”
If he does well at Arsenal there's not a chance of him coming back to City. If he doesn't then City won't want him. Definitely never coming backGood luck to him, It will be a good learning curve for him at Arsenal. If he turns out to be decent then i'm sure we'll have him back sometime in the future.
As usual classy by City, have Arsenal thanked us yet?You were too quick to criticise:-
