This is Arsenal during Arteta's rebuild. 👇
10 games.
1 win.
That 1 win was vs Manchester United.
Finished 8th TWICE.
We didn't sack him.
We didn't say "Arteta out" every week.
We TRUSTED THE PROCESS.
Top 4 was the target.
Not Champions League by December.
Fast forward: Arteta built a team that won the league and became a European giant.
Now look at Manchester United:
Ole was building something - SACKED, "we need to win the PL by August"
Ten Hag was building something - SACKED, "we need UCL by August"
Amorim was building something - SACKED, "we need to win the treble by August"
Carrick the same - "win the league now"
11 games, 2 wins.
7 games no wins.
If you are BUILDING, you don't think of winning the league in August. You think of building.
Arsenal gave Arteta 3 years of pain. United can't give any manager 3 months.
This is why Arsenal is fighting for titles and United is fighting for Top 10.
You want instant trophies during a rebuild. That's why you will NEVER rebuild.

Fleetwood Town: We’re beating Arsenal.
And they did!
Grimsby Town FC, who knocked Manchester United out of the Carabao Cup last season, posted this meme to mock Manchester United after Brighton came from behind to beat Manchester United and dumped them out of the competition at the same stage.
Manchester United have now become a laughing stock, even for League Two teams.
We actually LOST this match doing Arteta's experiment.
Gyokeres as striker, Havertz as 10 behind him.
Gyokeres 7.5 with a goal, Havertz 7.4.
We have only TWO strikers in the whole squad. And Arteta played both at once. So what did we learn about who should be our main number 9?
NOTHING.
And look at our bench. We have Eze who is a natural 10.
Odegaard who is a natural 10.
Merino who can play 10. Bruno Gumaraes who can play 10.
FOUR natural 10s on the bench.
But Arteta decided to force Havertz as 10 again.
Experiment failed.
We lost.
And we still don't know our best striker.
Make it make sense Arteta. #AFC #Arsenal
Haters are praying Eze misses another penalty tonight 😭
They have been waiting for this moment. #AFC #CarabaoCup
Fleetwood 1-1 Arsenal. 90 minutes done. Penalties next at Fleetwood.
Arsenal could actually get knocked out by a League One side tonight. #CarabaoCup #AFC
Fleetwood Town just took Arsenal to penalties at home.
League One side vs Premier League leaders. If Fleetwood knocks Arsenal out here, X will explode 🤣 #CarabaoCup #AFC

You have no clue at all
KEEP MICHAEL CARRICK. I SAID WHAT I SAID.
Look at this image again and actually USE YOUR BRAIN.
Amorim 24/25: 26% win rate, 1.0 pts per game
Amorim 25/26: 40% win rate, 1.6 pts per game
18 MONTHS, full backing, his own signings, €200m spent, and his BEST was 40%?
Carrick 25/26: 71% win rate, 2.3 pts per game
Yes, Carrick 26/27 is now 13% and 0.9 pts per game.
I see it.
But you want to sack Carrick for a bad 2 months after he SAVED Manchester United from Amorim's relegation form?
Amorim had Manchester United in a terrible state when Carrick took over.
Carrick took that SAME squad to a 71% win rate and brought Champions League football back to Old Trafford.
Now, because of a few bad games, you want to sack him?
Are Manchester United fans actually serious?
Who will you hire?
Another Sporting Lisbon YouTube coach?
Another Ajax philosophy man?
Another 3-4-3 PowerPoint merchant?
Manchester United's problem since Ferguson left has NEVER been the manager bounce.
It has been sacking managers every 8 months.
Carrick is Manchester United DNA.
He understands the club.
The players respect him, and he is capable of flushing out the bad eggs just as Mikel Arteta did at Arsenal.
He gave Manchester United their best football since Ferguson left in that 71% run.
13% is bad, yes.
But every top manager has a bad patch.
Even Pep had a few bad games last season.
If Manchester United sacks Michael Carrick now, Manchester United will be back to a 26% win rate with the next fraud.
Mark my words.
KEEP CARRICK.
BACK HIM IN JANUARY.
Let him build.
Sacking Carrick = INEOS admitting they have ZERO plan. Again.

Why Kane in 2026 and not Ronaldo in 2018?
Harry Kane winning 2026 Balon Dor, a testament that, Cristiano Ronaldo deserved 2018 edition.
Modric was declared the winner because he had a great World Cup campaign where he won the Golden Ball and finished as runner up.
In that year, he won everything Ronaldo won as collective trophies.
Player vs player, remove goals and passes, Ronaldo was a better player than Modric statistically.
But the fact that Modric had a great world cup campaign, he was picked ahead of Ronaldo.
Fast forward to 2026, Rodri was fantastic for Spain as they won the World Cup. He also won the Golden ball but he was only good for the 4th place finish.
This raises a question? Why Harry Kane in 2026 and not Ronaldo in 2018?
In 2018, some argued you cant use goals to judge a Midfielder and by the way both Ronaldo and Modric won the same trophies.
Of which in 2010 and 2012, despite winning the same trophies as Messi for Barcelona and World Cup (2010) then (Euro) 2012, goals were the reasons Xavi and Iniesta were denied the awards.
The same "goals" scored is the reason Harry Kane was adjudged as the winner in 2026. If it is about the trophy, he didnt win the biggest trophy in Europe or World.
Ronaldo in 2018 won the biggest trophy in club football alongside Modric.
Messi in 2010 and 2012 didn't win the biggest trophy in club football or International football. Xavi and Iniesta did in both years.
This might sound like an old gist but it is always fresh in our memory.
If Messi could win in 2010 and 2012 and Kane could win in 2026, why not Ronaldo in 2018?
If Modric could win in 2018, why not Xavi or Iniesta in 2010 and 2012 and why not Rodri in 2026?
The award will always come and live us with questions.
Congratulations once again to Harry Kane.
