Schmeichel, who won the Treble with Manchester United, believes that Arsenal's head coach Mikel Arteta is a major factor in the team's underperformance. He points out that Arteta was hired as a head coach but has since taken on more responsibilities, essentially becoming a manager.

According to Schmeichel, Arteta's tendency to control every aspect of the game can be detrimental to the team's progress. He suggests that this approach can confuse and hinder the players, making them worse performers.

Schmeichel draws a contrast with Arne Slot, who is calm and composed in his coaching approach. He notes that Arteta's behavior on the sidelines is similar to that of a player, directing every move and action. This, Schmeichel believes, is not an effective way to manage a team.
