Mikel Arteta

You don't strike me as the sort of person who would relish being outshone by your underlings.

Exactly why I appointed you in the first place.

It appears he and Pep have a great relationship,we also have a fantastic team spirit,and finally......we are top of the league and playing some of the best football i have ever witnessed.

I would guess he aint doing no harm :-)

Once arteta learns the difference between a muffin and a barm he can take over the chippy order from Brian Kidd and let the poor man retire.

Ha! Kidd is also there to help the small number of English players settle in to their new and unfamiliar Hispanic environment.

Pep's giving him his break and an unrivalled education, he should remain loyal and stay.

He’ll be out like a shot if any of them jobs come up and who could blame him?

Do you think Pep has "given him his break" so that he won't push on to be a manager?

If he feels ready then he should jump into the deep end.

Two years under Pep is a great education and should set him up for whatever managerial career he may have.

Even if we lose Arteta I reckon we will end up seeing Pep bring in someone like Xabi Alonso or Xavi in anyway.
