No doubt this is a rejuvenated Arsenal team but what we will say happened at the tail end of last season ? isn't that complacency ??

@ogeewitty what can you say about yesterday's loss to porto in the CL?
Hi bro, sorry been away from this zone for some weeks. Still away though for now.
Firstly the loss wasn't complacency. It was that kind of match where the opponent seems to know you inside out. Could have been a draw if the keeper didn't wrongly position himself.
You see why that my blog says something about surprising the opposition? That was the third match with exactly same starting 11. Eventhough you are sure they are all fit you can bench one to create an element of surprises, plus it sends some good vibes to the players who don't usually start. Be rest assured that Arteta learns fast.
Not to worry, like I told you, Arteta's Arsenal never forgets, that's why I didn't celebrate the Newcastle win. I more than expected that win, especially with a Newcastle that has even declined slightly.
Also the stats(even the negative ones) in that CL match and endeavour tells me we can be rest assured of qualifying.
No p, this team ain't complacent.
I'm out, battery 1%.
Cheers
Well said! Cheers man !!
Oh no, that wasn't complacency. Did I do a post on that? Ok I can't lay my hands on it, but this one in May last year gives some answer– https://peakd.com/hive-101690/@ogeewitty/no-half-measures
So there was no complacency, it's just the expertise of the coach that was lacking, in team selection. You didn't employ an Ancelloti or Pep, you employed a young coach who was far from the finished article, so he must show incompetence somewhere. Incompetence isn't complacency.
Note that the failings of Dec 2023 is quite similar to that of my May 2023 blog above.
See, my joy is that Arteta keeps learning and improving. Already I told you he's following the recommendations of that my blog above, so stay calm Westham or not. Remember, "Arsenal doesn't forget".
So last season's ending has nothing to do with complacency pls.
Cheers man
