Mikel Arteta, regarded as one of the best managers in England, has achieved a new milestone in the Premier League with Arsenal.
The Spanish manager has consistently performed well since taking over the helm at Arsenal and has now set a new record. The recent victory against Brentford marked his 116th win as the Gunners manager in 200 games.
This accomplishment makes him the Arsenal manager with the most wins after 200 games, surpassing the records of Arsene Wenger (111) and George Graham (106), as revealed by Coaches Voice on Twitter.
Despite facing initial scepticism from critics when appointed for his first senior managerial role, Arteta has proven himself. Arsenal’s hierarchy, who never doubted his suitability for the position, deserves credit for sticking with him.
What a remarkable achievement and testament to Arteta’s managerial prowess.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Arteta has had a good time on our bench and we now expect him to win some trophies in the next few seasons.
The Spaniard knows this and we can tell that he is pushing to end this campaign as the champions of England.
For now, the boys must maintain the standard they have created in some important wins this term.
If we can secure wins even when we are not in our best form, we can be sure that we will win enough games to bring success to the Emirates, possibly even in Europe.
Kudos to him. He seems to get wins. Now he has to prove he gets them when the bum is sticky.
Or even sqeaky.
Ooh, the thought of a sticky bum… yuk
Yes, sorry for thst boo boo.🤣
Great thanks to Mikel Artete, for bringing calmness, positive response and sweet football in the team.
1)The coach is going very great.
(2) Nelson should somethings start the game than harvest
(3)He should be giving more time to Eddie Nketie even when he comes bench
(4) And the build up from back some times ,we have to be extra careful.
He’s got it. Nothing to worry about on that front.
I think he has. Its the pressure games than mean something, we have fallen down. The style of play has proved flimsy under pressure.
So far so good. I’m extremely happy with what he’s doing
Here are the full details of MA and AW’s first 200 games, with MA’s figures first :
Wins = 116 – 111
Draw = 34 – 53
Lost = 50 – 36
GF = 358 – 336
GA = 206 – 176
I’m assuming that the 200 games include ALL competitions, so it’s worth factoring in the different opponents both have faced.
We should also remember the results from those three seasons, where 8th,8th and 5th would have screwed MA’s figures, versus AW’s incredible start.
MA is doing a great job now and we can only hope trophies are on the horizon.
Ken1945 your stats wouldn’t be complete because you have to also add how many trophies won, the net spend the respective managers had to work on the kind of opponents faced during that period wenger had to deal with difficult teams in Europe in is first 200 games that’s a fairly important details that you have overlooked.
Naftali, you must also consider the fact that one manager’s era is more competitive than the other. Because the quality and the purchasing power of Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United and even Spurs, Arteta has done a marvelous job staying competitive, getting us back to European football, gaining the supporters’ trust and winning the FA Cup. Arsenal was in such an appalling state when Mikel took over. Some of us were even ashamed to tell our family and friends that we were still fans of the team. Good days are in the horizon. COYG.
Bernard, the fact that our club is on par with what the clubs you have named in spending terms, seem to have slipped your mind.
I find it weird that you felt ashamed to be a supporter of The Arsenal, when we were winning fa cups, finishing in the top four, regular CL and/or europa football – perhaps you’ve only REALLY started supporting the club again this season?
No, I didn’t overlook the European matches and that’s why I emphasised ALL games Natfali.
I do agree about the money spent however, but to be 100% fair, you also need to look at the players both managers decided they wanted to move on and what that cost.
Whatever way you look at it, MA has done a very good job, as did AW – we should count our blessings my friend!!
Ken further stats too. Best of all time wins, in first 200 among notable managers as follows: Guardiola wins144, Mourinho134,Watson,124 ( former Liverpool and Sunderland manager from way way back), Dalglish 118 Arteta 116, Klopp 112,Wenger111, Ferguson94.
Some will be surprised at those stats, until they THINK about the FIRST 200 games only. Some will be far too young to even remember in any detail of course. Even I don’t remember Watson!!
NOT TOO BAD FOR A “POOR MAN MANAGER, WITH AN AGENDA, HIS FAVOURITES AND AN EGO TOO”, I SUGGEST.
Indeed Jon and when one thinks what Fergie went on to achieve, perhaps the first 200 games don’t really mean a lot?
It’s a managers history that counts and let’s see how MA’s turns out.
Just as a afterthought, the club have set a new record of going 17 games undefeated against every London club they’ve faced.
London is certainly the red of The Arsenal!!
How many of these managers manage this with their first club, and how was state of the club when they did it?
The league is getting better every decade. MA’s achievement is remarkable based on Arsenal’s history and MA’s lack of experience.
Bring in a Partey replacement with his same qualities. We are missing Partey greatly and Odegaard and the whole attack is getting worse without him.
We need a progressive passer in the 8 or 6 position. Rice has solidified the defence and can’t perform both at once.
We can defeat any team in the league with Rice and Partey in the middle. Unfortunately Partey has his fitness troubles and Arteta was unwilling to play both of them.
He is enigmatically pragmatic… He deserves a lot of respect for wimning back fans trust in the direction that the team/club is taking. With a little more bolstering, this team will be the hardest nut to crack in Europe.
Arteta has prove to the world that he is the man in mission the best manager i ever see
Your obviously quite young, or you haven’t been watching football for very long Charles.
Once he starts winning trebles, doubles, or even european trophies and produces an Invincible squad, then we can agree.
He could well be – even almost certainly IS – BOTH those things KEN. It would fit his hyped post!
Oh yes Arteta has really performed beyond expectation and deserves a great commendation.
Arteta all the way Gunners for life
Congratulations to him. Now just needs to add the big trophies to his cv.
Credit to him (M A)
About time my dawgs, let’s go!!!
Well done MA
Lets not forget the backing from the Kronkies!!!!!!!
He’s a good manager, agreed. But let him stop experiments like that and stick to something that has ever worked for him!
