5 Reasons Why Mikel Arteta Is Not The Right Man For Arsenal

Manchester City v Chelsea - Premier League
Mikel Arteta is reportedly poised to take over as Arsenal manager.

#1 Arsenal need to avoid getting sucked into the whirlwind of managerial change

Crystal Palace v Manchester City - Premier League
Would he last as Arsenal manager if were to take up the job?

The modern day mania of managerial turn-over is one of the most disconcerting trends. As horrible as it is to see players move to rival clubs, what's even more depressing is to see managers follow suit.

Take a look at the the big clubs, or event the smaller ones for that matter, managers lose their jobs and find new ones almost as easily as Lionel Messi lobs keepers. We can't say for sure but we think that having to watch Jose Mourinho move to Manchester United from Chelsea might've been a bitter pill to swallow for the Chelsea fans.

We need to find someone who will stay at the Emirates for the foreseeable future and not look for a stop-gap which Mikel Arteta is most likely to turn into should he indeed take over as manager.

Arsenal are a club of ideals and principles and must, at all costs, avoid getting pulled into the unsavoury situation of having to fire their managers and replacing them at the drop of a hat. That takes away attention from the field and the players on it.

Arsenal need to find someone who can smoothly transition the side back to the glory days of Wenger and that can be achieved only if the manager is allowed to stay in his job so that he can prove his worth.
