Building a team like what Arteta does and what Ten Hag does at Manchester United is very different. Arteta is organizing the team slowly, money is not the main weapon for Arteta to build Arsenal's strength, he has to take an approach between the main players working together solidly. While Ten Hag chose the Instant route, he relied on money to bring in quality players, of course the results could not be immediately satisfying as expected.
There are obstacles that occur, it takes time to unite players who consider themselves to have quality because they still have their own selfishness. The results of Ten Hag work can only be felt after this season ends, they will understand each other and begin to adapt to the strategies used by Ten Hag.
Wait a minute, am I not wrong and isn't it different in this case. Come on, let's flashback to last summer. As far as I know, especially this season, Arteta has received full support to bring in the players they were previously targeting. Arsenal's owner, for the first time providing a large budget, did not even hesitate to bring in Rice at a fantastic price. He is one of the players Arsenal bought at a fantastic price, which means Rice broke Arsenal's record with his transfer. Apart from that, some of the players that Arteta brought in were also not cheap. Kai Harvertz, brought in by Arsenal for a high price. even though, his performance was not very good when he played with Chelsea, especially last season. Jurrien Timber was brought in at a fairly expensive price, and he is even injured. Aaron Ramsdale played well as the Gunners' main goalkeeper, but Arteta instead brought in another goalkeeper, namely David Raya. Apart from that, there are actually still several players who are still being targeted by Arteta. Unfortunately, the transfer window was approaching close at that time. With only 3 players brought in by Arteta, Arsenal had to spend a lot of money.
Well, inversely proportional to Manchester United. First of all, I will disclaim that I am not a supporter of The Red Devil. It's just me, I like the style that Ten Hag implemented especially last season. There are clearly differences between Arsenal and Manchester United. United's acquisition issue was the main trigger from my point of view. which means, Glazer did not provide the budget that Ten Hag wanted. plus, United gets an FFP sanction. With limited funds, Ten Hag inevitably has to prepare to bring in players that fit the player spending budget he gets. By only bringing in two players, namely, Mason Mount and Onana, the budget has already run out. In the end, Ten Hag put pressure on the club to get a center forward. In the end, they brought Rasmus Hojlund to Old Trafford. As for other players such as Reguilon, Amrabat, they only have the status of loan players. So, it's natural that Ten Hag has limitations, plus their main players are injured, especially defenders. plus the case of Antony, Shanco, is all this Ten Hag's fault? btw, I am an Arsenal supporter. but I like Ten Hag's style, unfortunately, this season what he planned fell apart. Well, if I'm wrong, please correct me
