Arteta

Strong word for someone who has no effect on your life whatsoever and who you have never met. I suspect he has never harmed in any way anyone remotely connected to you yet you hate him
I find that strange.
I think he is tightly wound up, a perfectionist about football, how he looks etc etc, but if that winds you up…
What exactly has he said that makes you labeled him arrogant.
He always speaks respectfully about opposition teams and fans
He’s awful to the blokes doing the aftermatch interviews who are just trying on other job he’s leaked off before blokes a tosser
 

Goes on like an utter bellend a lot of the time. And his public persona is one of that.

But your man Xhaka has a lot of time for him.

Granit Xhaka: “When Mikel Arteta came, he had a very open conversation with myself. My luggage was already done [packed], I was ready to leave. I already had a contract on the table from another club.”“Mikel convinced me to stay. He wanted to show me that I am in the right place. From this day, I just had the feeling that every word he told me in this first conversation, everything was exactly like he said.”“That’s why I say that in 2019, when Mikel came, he changed me completely — as a human being, on the pitch, outside the pitch.”“I didn’t have doubts about myself, about the quality, about how professional I needed to be - because I was - but there were these little mistakes, yellow cards, red cards. Silly red cards, where you don’t need to… but Mikel, he changed it.”“He changed a lot of things, the people coming in speaking, I changed some of my people too as well. My family helped, of course. Alone, it is difficult to do that.”

he hates the mags so he'll dee for me.
 
Hea

He’s a prick to the people interviewing him after the game, extremely rude and arrogant to them when they are just trying to do their jobs
I’ll take your word for it but I find it hard to believe he’s a prick all the time. And I hate arsenal. I’m sure every manager has lost the tit at some of the stupid questions asked
