  1. getting the assist while laying in the floor between his opponents legs is pretty iconic. it’s the kind of play that 25-30 years ago would have had me looking for a great photo of it in the next issue of SI.
  2. really interested to see what we do with max dowman this season. skill wise there’s little doubt that he’s epl-ready, but it will obviously take some time for him to adjust to the physicality and speed of the prem. it seems like we plan on keeping him here and playing him the cups and maybe even spot minutes in the league. i think i prefer for him to stay and train with the first team every day as opposed to going out on loan. really excited about his future though. he seems to have it all as an attacking midfielder.
  3. best episode in years.
  4. is there anywhere to watch the season debut if you didn’t have it set to record? i had no idea the show was coming back.
  5. lmao holy shit, this is exactly what im talking about. you see a tweet that references a bunch of arsenal’s best players all missing 3+ months and your response is, “oh some guys got hurt over the international break and didn’t miss any games, who cares?” lmao. i’m done. you’re so far gone. and you say that someone else here is “aggy”. jesus christ that’s rich.
  6. except that we literally suffered more injuries than any other team this year, and the players who suffered those injuries make up a far more important contingent of our team than any other team with “comparable” injuries. making you wrong. your outright refusal to ever address any of this despite it being posted literally four times now says it all. there’s no point in discussing any of this with you. you have zero desire to be honest. it’s become tribalistic at this point. maga, aggy, whatever you want to call it- you, fireman’s, the spurs fans who’re “dunking” on arsenal because they lost 22 epl games and beat BgFgshensjdh FC in their pop warmer tourney are all embodying it. it’s pathetic, and there’s no point in discussing anything with people who behave like this.
  7. @hobbes2702 this has been posted three times in this thread. actually, four now. you continue to ignore it. you are arguing in bad faith.
  8. what the fuck does that table have to do with the lie that you posted, which i subsequently quoted?
  9. it’s very telling that you refer to that chart, yet you haven’t even acknowledged any of the facts that i’ve posted about injury crisis, from that fact that we suffered more injuries (36) than any other epl team, or the fact that the two teams ahead of us in the table you referenced did not suffer injuries that were remotely as significant as arsenal’s injuries in terms of which specific players suffered the injuries. which, btw, means that even at best case scenario we were the third most injured team in the league, and in your mind that’s “the opposite” of arsenal suffering lots of injuries? yeah, you’re not being aggy at allllll. 🙄
  10. yeah, that’s a lie, but keep convincing yourself that you’re not in here arguing in bad faith. 👌🏼
  11. i think it’s really funny that in your mind, pointing out actual facts about arsenal being hard done by poor officiating = a conspiracy theory, particularly when i have out and out posted that there’s no conspiracy against arsenal, just that we’ve gotten the worst of the terrible officiating which permeates this league. even more when liverpool coincidentally got favorable officiating all season. miya also funny to me that when liverpool where unlucky runners up against man city that arsenal fans sympathized with them and wished liverpool had won. and then when arsenal finished second two years in a row, twice to the same city super club, and once with all of the aforementioned bad luck, you guys decided to talk a bunch of shit about arsenal and invent some new rivalry, as if city, chelsea, and united are your sister clubs. so weird.
  12. if you think that “aggy” describes y’all’s behavior better than “maga” then i won’t argue too hard. it’s close enough.
  13. there is no nba equivalent of angel reese. no one as bad as angel reese has ever played in the nba. it’s michael jordan vs matt hill.
  14. this is maga levels of delusion. the facts even posted: nobody suffered more injuries than arsenal; nobody suffered more impactful injuries than arsenal; nobody lost more points to bad officiating than arsenal; nobody got more pgmol apologies than arsenal; and most importantly, absolutely nobody came in here whining about any of that, or asking for sympathy from anyone. all of that stuff was merely brought up when this thread unanimously stated that mikel arteta has done nothing impressive at arsenal, either this year or during his tenure. it was then simply pointed out that finishing second in the league and going to the semifinals of the epl despite the insane amount of injuries and points lost due to poor officiatiing is, in fact, impressive. that’s it. it was a response to your asinine, overtly biased opinions. our club is in *insanely* better shape than it was when arteta showed up, and y’all literally can’t even admit that. “nothing impressive” about taking our club from where Man U is right now to where Arsenal is right now, with a fraction of the money. sure. all you magats have done since then is slurp tottenham for having a horrible season that ended with a Little Dribblers trophy while continuing to swear up and down that the team who objectively did much, much better than tottenham did “nothing impressive”. it’s just pathetic to see. besides the simple, undeniable fact that arteta has done a great job overall, even when you keep being presented with actual facts about injury record or lost points to bad calls you just sit there and deny it, all while apologizing to villa over one bad call. it’s truly maga levels of self delusion. you all should be embarrassed.
  15. phil cuzzi has taken the baton from angel hernandez and run with it.
  16. wait…what?
  17. beyond that, the biggest thing about gen z is that they think that everything/everyone who came before them is dumb, outdated, and irrelevant. they could choose to learn everything about everything. the amount of information that’s available to them is almost unfathomable, and yet they know less about what came before them than any group of people ever, because to them, if it’s older than they are, it doesn’t matter. they’re so, so arrogant, and oddly proud to be so ignorant of history. these kids are so fucked.
  18. jordan peterson apparently did one of these, and it did not go well: https://www.reddit.com/r/PublicFreakout/s/Nkq5E7AAAb one of the best comebacks i’ve ever seen. devastating.
  19. dude fuck all these fans of these other clubs on this forum. we’ve all been cordial for years, but these guys have been openly rooting against and shitting on arsenal all year this year, so fuck that, and fuck them. the gall to deny our injury record, to laugh at our pgmol misfortune, to celebrate everything bad or unfair that happened to arsenal this season, to say that our club and manager have done nothing impressive during his tenure, all while our club is doing better than 95% of the rest of the league is more lame than i can describe. fuck those guys. there is nothing more lame than people who deny reality based on pettiness and fanaticism.
  20. y’all laughed and talked shit when this kept happening and yet you’re in here now apologizing to villa. so, we lost double digit points due to officiating, we suffered a higher number + more severe injuries than anyone else, we played the final three months with no strikers, we finished better than all of your clubs save one on the epl, and did better than all of your clubs in the champions league, and yet you all to a man sit there and say, “there’s literally nothing impressive about that. but man, tottenham sure had a great season.” exasperatedronswanson.gif indeed.
