The job Arteta has done is impressive. Even last year Carragher was saying getting Arsenal to the top four is the limit of Arsenals potential and he should consider looking for other jobs. He's rocked up this year and steered a young side to have a very realistic chance of winning the title.
As a Liverpool fan, the only slight pleasures this year is the wider football context is seeing Everton finally implode, and seeing City being surpassed in the league by some ex City rejects led by their old assistant coach. That has to be getting under the skin for the City fans, players and dog fucking manager.
