Arsenal supporters have made lighthearted remarks regarding Mikel Arteta’s potential inability to lead the club to the Premier League championship following reports that the Gunners manager was observed indulging in extravagant fare at the renowned luxury restaurant Salt Bae in Dubai.

Salt Bae, whose actual name was Nusret Gokce, provoked outrage during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar when he was observed hoarding the renowned trophy of the tournament and harassing jubilant Argentina players on the field.

Since the incident, Gokce’s relationship with football fans has been tumultuous, but that has not prevented Arteta from indulging in a lavish meal while abroad on warm weather training.

Arsenal are presently in Dubai for a respite of warm-weather training in an effort to aid players in their recovery from the hectic holiday schedule of matches.

Arteta was captured on camera engaging in a cringe-worthy conversation with the Turkish entrepreneur and chef who delights in honoring the numerous celebrities who dine at his restaurants around the globe.

Gokce presented Arteta with a tableside experience involving a triple-digit steak, which he cut in his signature fashion before inserting a portion of the prime cut into Arteta’s mouth.

Arteta readily accepts the steak that is suspended in front of him during an awkward exchange; some Arsenal supporters are not optimistic about the outcome of the encounter for the remainder of the season.

A dubious supporter posed the following query on X: “Am I the only one who finds this peculiar?” A male would eat with such an open mouth. “Come, Arsenal, retrieve your gaffer!”

“That restaurant experience for Arteta simply cost more than purchasing Ivan Toney,” said another.

An additional remark that dismissed the interaction stated, “With this individual in charge, we certainly don’t stand a chance.”

Arsenal have adrift into fourth place in the Premier League standings following a patchwork stretch of five Premier League matches, during which they have secured only one victory.

Arsenal supporters are anticipating that the club will participate in the ongoing January transfer market, with Brentford forward Ivan Toney being a popular target.
