Podcast: Welcome to the 21-22 edition of the Positively Uncensored Arsenal podcast with yours truly and the one and only Blackburn George. After Arsenal’s opening day loss to Brentford we observe that Arteta’s record is significantly worse than Unai Emery. While Brentford was the inferior team on paper, under Arteta Arsenal cannot score goals and goals win matches.
For the benefit of of the readers of this blog, below is the comparative record of Arteta vs Emery prior to Brentford:
| Matches | Win % | Draw % | Loss % | GFPG | GAPG | |
| Arteta | 58 | 47% | 25% | 25% | 1.59 | 1.03 |
| Emery | 51 | 49% | 22% | 31% | 1.78 | 1.37 |
| GFPG – Goals for Per Game; GAPG- Goals Against per Game | ||||||

Emery is superior in four out of five statistical categories. Arteta was only successful in reducing the Goals Against Per Game. As George opined we could have hired Tony Pulis or Sam Allardyce to achieve that feat. I am afraid more of this negative, unimaginative football is in the offing under Arteta. Brentford is just a foretaste.
Just a reminder that Uncensored Arsenal now has a YouTube channel and starting last Friday and every Friday during the season at 6:00am AST we will livestream The Weekly Arsenal. We need a channel for sane, sensible, commonsense Gooners as an alternative to the immature, clickbait nonsense offered by the most other YouTubers, especially that chancer from Luton. We need you to Like and Subscribe to our YouTube channel so we become relevant. Together with my friends and mates we are working on improving the content. .

Odegard signing looks good as we need creativity in midfield but it will not help until Arteta changes his system. with prioritizing offense instead of defense.
Re Ramsdale what is the logic of signing for 20/25 million when we sold our academy graduate Martinez for same amount last year.
For me Martinez is a better keeper than Leno.
Why the he’ll we sold Willock.He has shown how good he is at Newcastle.
Arsenal management is a shit show since Wenger left.
I am not confident Arsenal will do well this season.
Is Laca and Auba really unfit or the rumors that they are unhappy with Arteta true.
Where are we going as a club.Can the idiot fans who wanted Wenger out explain to us.
