Are Arsenal actually placing bounties on opposing players?

[Blue_Lightsaber]

It sure seems like it doesn't it? 2 seconds into a game with trying to take out Rodri and then happened again and again..

The way a bounty system works.. coaches or players target players of opposing sides and try to knock them out of games or longer. Whoever actually does the dirty work is financially rewarded with a huge bonus off the books.. so it supposedly never took place.. i.e. covered up.. you're imagining things.. conspiracy theory.

There's actually a well known case of it stateside: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Orleans_Saints_bounty_scandal

How many have they taken out so far?

I have seen somewhere an Arsenal player allegedly said they targeted Rodri after his interview saying they came for the draw at our ground last season. If that can be found then Havertz should get a retrospective ban for whacking Rodri straight from the kick off as it was premeditated.

I doubt the bounty aspect but he was clearly targeted Think Arteta is a despicable individual and if we don’t win the league I’d rather it be the scousers than this lot

Took out Diaz from Liverpool according to Twitter - haven’t checked to confirm.

Like all red tops, not playing to the spirit of the game. No surprises with the clowns at the PremierL league.

Arsenals new kit.

It's always gone on. The gpc had his entire team systematically target Shaunny Wright. Each player took it in turns to kick him until he limped out the game.
No bounty, just a nasty manager telling his team what to do. They do not have a player big enough to take out Alfies lad so Rodders was next in line.

Bizarrely some dippers are now siding with us because of Arteta's tactics.
