Absolutely loved the look on Roy Keanes face.Looke seriously pissed off.Though Arsenal were on for a Whipping & was gutted.Then comes out with absolute bollocks that Arteta “‘ should show some class”.For what? The hypocrite conveniently forgets what his old Manager” blue nose” was like.

He knows we’re back & Pedro is 100% right.They( media) are needled.Big time.

With all the things said about Arsenal by city players and even pundits,we are yet to even answer anyone

Let's win something this season and shut them up once and for all

They don't like the new Arsenal,Arteta is a winner at all cost kind of manager and I'm super proud of him,we must win whether by parking the bus or dark art or aesthetic football

Winning is all that matters for this team

Indeed.” No one likes us.We don’t care”.To quote a rather dangerous mob!

Strange that the 6'5 beast bounces the ball off BG Gabs head and then asks people to be humble??? What a twat !

read an article which shows the animosity between Arsenal and Man city not only among the players, the fans but at board level. Apparently Tim Lewis is outspoken about his feelings towards the Abu Dhabi backed ownership of City, fuelling the notion that there is something inherently wrong with a state owned football club in the Premier league. Tim Lewis has also hinted publicly that City should be punished severely for damaging and corrupting the league. Now we have Oliver who has been paid by Abu Dhabi to referee a game in Abu Dhabi and i am assuming here that the PGMOL are also in Abu Dhabi's pocket hence why there's a different law for Arsenal compared to other teams

Pointless blaming the ref TROSSARD got sent off for his own stupidity it was a clear second yellow

the guy is a fool and it’s about time if we want to win the league Arteta installed some more discipline than the team has at the moment.

1. The reaction time between the whistle and the swing from Trossard was less than a second, maybe between 0.6-0.8 secs.

2. Same ref didn't give second yellow card to Szobo two weeks ago for more about 2x longer duration between the whistle and Szobo's kick of the ball.

3. Same ref spared Kovacic for 2 fouls that on another day were a direct red for one and yellow for the other. Kovacic got 1 yellow for the 2 disgusting fouls.

4. Martinelli's two yellows in the same sequence will remain in the history forever - same ref.

5. Haaland didn't get a single yellow for his disgusting fouls and behaviour 2 days ago.

6. Grealish handball stopping a goal in the semi final vs Chelsea - penalty not given, same ref.

7. Ake goal when Akanji had to jump so the ball doesn't hit him clearly obstructing the view and reaction time of Leno - same ref.

8. Doku vs Liverpool with a karate kick on Mac Allister in the penalty box - same ref, not given.

9. Same ref refereed games in the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia as a freelancer - City is owned by the Abu Dhabi royal family.

10. Same ref has shown 7 red cards to Arsenal players - the most he's given to any team.

11. There rules are strict to the letter for Arsenal but for the other teams it's like Howard Webb said when asked about Kovacic's red card not given in City vs Arsenal a year ago - "Kovacic deserved a Red card, but Michael Oliver doesn't like to have a negative impact in a big game"

https://x.com/nischal_15/status/1838084163502837911 A compilation of some of the gaffes by Oliver in favor of City, halfway deleted cause we know it's not good for some organizations to have the clips online and circulating in the internet space.

Do we have an opinion on the back four that started vs City?

Timber Saliba Gabriel Calafiori

Is there potential to be our best lineup in the future and if not, what would our ideal back 4 look like? I don't think Arteta will rotate his defensive unit as much as Pep, so there will be a preferred option.

Expand full comment

Personally, I think Ben White comes back into the team, but Saliba, Gabriel and Calafiori are starters for me. Timber off the bench.

…….but we need to win the prem or CL. I have supported the club for a long time, original Highbury boy. First 10 years of Wenger were great but he was building on old hardcore. He threw it all away in the second 10 years and we lived under an endless project. Every year would be our year. Instead it drove us into the ground. We have to win trophies. The club needs to show ambition. Second is not good enough. We were genuinely robbed on Sunday.

All good stuff.

Funny seeing all the johny come latelies finally realizing City players ,and not just the organization, are pretty detestable…..…it took you guys long enough.

Rooting for that bunch to win the CL in the final vs Inter won’t be forgotten, though.

It’s a stain on your Arsenal fan reputation you should be ashamed of till the rest of your days.

Rodri will be missed but not to the extent some think.

Pep will find a way to deal with his absence, it’s he who makes the difference, always has.

Tom is the biggest Jonny come later ever. Chicago Bears , Spurs , some Wenger love and a passing interest in Arsenal as a club

Never rooted for City you’re talking out of your hat. Just said previously over turning them is a major obstacle and that they are corrupt but well run.

You do love the Spuds though . Nailed on. Coz apparently you don’t understand the rivalry

not sure who they were supposed to be - don’t recall anyone rooting for City other than the Arsenal haters who show up on here

Pedro, Marky, Positive Pete…just to name the few

Ahem.Ill have to pull you on that ‘ porky’ & you were doing well for once.Show me where I’ve rooted for the oilers & in particular in that CL final? Produce the evidence & I’ll take the whipping.Otherewise button it Tom.

Can you list down in detail all of the Michael Oliver misdemeanours you states above so that Arsenal fans can plaster it in comments sections of MSM articles who claim we’re just bitter conspiracy theorists?

Expand full comment

They’ve been listed to a degree already by Pedro.You can start with that Oliver has sent 7 Arsenal players off in his time officiating us.A record I believe? For one ref against a particular club.Martinelli’ unique’ double booking,the kovacic leg breaker ignored by Oliver cos he didn’t want to ruin the match with a sending off.How convenient.The hypocrite.And I’m sure there’s a few others.

Is there any other sport where you can throw the ball at the back of your opponent’s head and nothing happens? Even Dodgeball has a “no headhunting” rule.

Can guarantee 100% there would have been retrograde action on. an Arsenal player if he’d done the same.The clamour would be if murder had been committed .Sky would be running it day & night.
