I can't imagine Arteta doing this, but the reaction from certain quarters if he did would be ๐Ÿ˜‚โ€‹

"Hopefully he enjoyed his sandwich while he was talking to a Premier League manager.โ€

I can't believe the entitlement in the phrase you quoted. A man that feels so angry about somebody having the gall to eat a sandwich in his presence sounds like an arrogant bastard. It reminds me of Nate, when he's in charge of West Ham, in Ted Lasso.

Yes, you're a premier league manager, we get it, you aren't a god. You boss boys around on a football field. Act like a damn adult when you're going to bitch about the on field decisions, don't spout off to the media about garbage that isn't even relevant to the refereeing...

Edit: though I agree, the whole situation is hilarious and the media would be piling on Arteta if he said something like this.

Finally got around to listening to some Louis Dunford's music that isn't just The Angel, and damn I've been missing out lol

Oberdorf has officially signed for Bayern on release clause. Poor Wolfsburg will never get to keep a squad together lol

Hemp might be going to Barca for real, that's wild honestly.

Sad :(

Players are probably fine with it though. Better to have a night off than play a pointless game in a congested schedule
