Arsenal Thread | 2024/25

I'm sure some people do, that's why there's an Arsenal thread hence I posted it.

I suspect that most on her don't after your team's theatrics on Sunday.

Your manager ranting on the lifeline when your player was rightly sent off was a pretty obvious sign that he is deluded regarding the correctness of the way Trossard was treated.

Arteta is becoming a seriously poor example of behaviour for a team to follow, and displaying a level of desperation .

He's a ****. Hope he never wins fuck all again. The shithouse cheating mard arse.
If we don't win the league then I hope the dippers do. Fuck the Southern soft arse wankers
 
What do you think of the coverage of how your teams tactics have been portrayed as since your draw at ours?
I think most Arsenal fans are loving it.. even had my brother in law saying how 'proud' he was ffs. He is normally sane!!!. These millionaires wouldnt piss on him if he was on fire yet he is saying "proud of 'em" . The media does things to people. Probably glad we don't have any sycophantic press fan boys
 
With the rules on keepers, it's obvious why he is chosen as the one to sit down.

As far as I can see, the only way around it, would be to ban the coaching cluster itself when a keeper is down injured.
There's a very easy solution for every opposing team. Just send one or two players into the coaching huddle. Players are allowed to take up any position they choose on the pitch during an injury break. (I'm posting this advice numerous times in outside hope that it might be seen by someone connected with Arsenal's future opponents).

I don't disagree with any of this. But many years ago the football gods made me an Arsenal fan and I'm stuck with it for better or for worse.

I think it's been mixed. Many pundits have said it was the only way to get a result.

My feelings are that tactically it was probably correct as our defence is immense and we had 10 men. The feigning injury stuff I never want to see again as I think we are better than that as a club and I'd actually rather lose a game than win at all costs.

But I do also think there's been an overreaction about a lot of things that happened on Sunday and really I don't want to dig up wounds again so to sum up, probably right of Arteta to play that defensive block. But I don't want to see shithousery and in particular pretending you're injured because one day a player might be injured and will get ignored by the ref.

An overreaction? But this was not an isolated tactic from your club: it's been going on since Arteta got there. Face it, he has changed the way most neutrals think about your club, and it hasn't changed for the better.

I get it that you will staunchly defend everything about the club, but calling public response to what was effectively yet another bottle job an 'overreaction' is undermining what the sport is about. Winning at all costs is NOT on the table, as far as I'm concerned. The spirit of the game should never be allowed to wallow in the gutter like it did with Revie all those years ago, and having professional footballers go out of their way to deliberately injure another is a big no-no.
The attack on Rodri (because that's what it amounted to) was premeditated, almost certainly orchestrated by Arteta and your training staff. It could have ended the man's career, and the thug who was responsible for it will not be at your club forever, he will move on to warmer climes and enjoy his retirement in luxury, not giving a flying fuck about the man whose playing days were ended by that totally unwarranted display of cowardly violence.

There was always going to be some fall-out from your display, Arteta must have anticipated some kind of negative feedback from the media after instructing your team to go out and do what they did in front of a televised audience of millions and millions - despite him feigning surprise at the resultant backlash.


Prior to the game I was relatively indifferent to Arsenal, not anymore. After yesterday's disgusting performance and the loud cheering when an opposItion player was injured, I now put your club in the same category as I do the rags and the dippers.

The 'attack on Rodri' is one of the things I think is being massively overreacted to. There was a coming together between Havertz and Rodri after 5 seconds - who knows why but if there was any intention it may have been A because of what Rodri said and B because of Rodri's horror tackle on Odegaard playing for Spain vs Norway which could actually have been a leg breaker.

It was a barge (Haaland was at it as well all match), Rodri got up, ref and VAR decided nothing doing and the match went on. If there had been anything nasty the ref or VAR would have stepped in.

20 minutes later Rodri had his injury and there was minimal contact, it was an unfortunate injury. Jurrien Timber had a similar injury last season after an innocuous contact. There was nothing premeditated about it.

I genuinely hope Rodri isn't out for as long as feared and makes a complete recovery. But to state his injury was deliberate is in my opinion outrageous. This was no Keane on Alf Inge Haaland.
