Mikel Arteta and Edu's plan labelled 'all over the place' but only Arsenal are laughing now

It has been nearly a year since the infamous comments from Gary Neville regarding Arsenal's transfer strategy were spoken. The former Manchester United full-back was staunch on multiple occasions about the criticism of the work being done by Edu and Mikel Arteta.

Fast-forward to the present day, and Neville is still feeling the repercussions of those words, having responded to Arsenal fans on Twitter when the video was brought up. The specific criticism that has the Gunners supporters chuckling relates to Neville's inability to see what the club were trying to do.

"I don't know the plan at Arsenal. The recruitment has been really poor. They're poor at it compared to other clubs. They just are, they've been poor in the last few years," he told Sky Sports after the loss to Brentford on the opening day of the 2021/22 season.
