    Genuine question, why does it seem like every other football fan hate Arsenal? Every social media posts about us just gets so many troll replies and thousands of likes.

    Infantino getting cozy with the Prince of Saudi Arabia and Cristiano Ronaldo really makes me wonder where we’ll see the 2034 World Cup happen.

    My first away game tonight. Currently on a train to Berlin, before flying to Portugal and driving across to Sevilla. Any tips? :)

    The refs needs to start improving. I fucking dreamt I was taking a class and a very tanned Mark Clattenburg was there as well. I don’t want to dream about Clattenburg.

    On the bright side he did say that Howard Webb was a spotlight hugging cunt, so it was nice to get that confirmed though.

    XI Predictions for tomorrow? I’ll start:

    Raya White-Saliba-Magalhães-Zinchenko (although I REALLY want Tomi playing)
    Ødegaard-Rice-Havertz
    Saka-Jesus-Martinelli

    Finally we get to see Gabi make his UCL debut 😭

    I have already saved up enough money to buy an iPad, but I am contemplating whether to purchase it using a credit payment method (paylater in this instance) since it offers a larger discount, or should I just pay in full upfront? What would you recommend?

    “Partey will unlock our attacking”.

    Relying on players that is injury prones, and being accused of raping women aren’t really good strategy tho

    Hope Mikel starts Havertz tomorrow whether at RCM or up front. Deserves a start.

      I think we should give Jesus a rest and play Havertz up top and Trossard of the left, Saka or Jesus down the right.

      Partey for some mins, rice as the 8, and ESR for ode.

      And bring them on if we need.

    Where does Saka rank for you in terms of greatest wingers we’ve ever had at the club? He’s got to be up there already, right?

      RW? Absolutely but including LW as well, I wouldn’t put him top 3 yet.

      He’ll eventually be the outright best we’ve had though.

      Not even close yet.

      He hasnt won anything with us yet.

      Sanchez of the recent past was just on another level.

      And this is without going back to Pires, Freddie, Rocastle, Overmas was a menace in his day.

    I thought it was tongue-in-cheek but chelsea fans are genuinely trying to convince themselves that Mudryk meant that goal. Jesus wept.

      They’ve been delusional for the 2 weeks leading up to the game and even after it, so no surprise there.

        The popular opinion on this sub was we easily win that game. We’re just as delusional as they are

        Saka went out of his way to say that he meant it multiple times. Mydryk’s was obviously scuffed.

        Did Saka mean it? Any suggestion that my Bible-boy is somehow dishonest is blasphemous, but it’s a move with his weak foot he has certainly never attempted before or since.

      Is it not infeasible that he did mean it though? I think Mudryk is a pretty shit player but Raya was really far off his line.

    Despite the performances, to be unbeaten and level on points with City after playing; United, Spurs City and Chelsea is a really strong start - so happy with that.

    For Tomorrow - If Ramsdale is available for section, he has to be starting Tuesday. If Ramsdale can’t start a cup match after continuous high profile errors from Raya then there really is absolutely no chance he can come back.

      Yeah tbf - we have played a lot of the big teams already - we’re into a bit of an “easier” stretch of fixtures now. Hopefully we can go on a bit of a run
