Arsenal Thread | 2025/26

Arteta says some weird things, I'd love Edwards to come out and say he's chatting shit.

No way has he told him they're the best team they've played.

Will see if he plays vs Sp*rs at the weekend. If he does then feel free to call us cheating cunts all you like as feigning a head injury is scumminess of the highest order.

Arteta and his players are a total fucking stain and embarrassment on football, demonstrating the very worst examples of professional football played with zero integrity or sportsmanship.

Shameful and desperate !

If video replays after the event show no contact with a players head or face, either from an opponent, teammate or hitting the ground, then they should be banned for 5 games for bringing the game into disrepute and endangering the safety of fellow pros. The Players Union should be all over this I think.

I said something along those lines a few months ago.

This should be introduced as a matter of urgency, because the current situation is ruining the game.

Make a rule stating that any player who leaves because of the concussion protocol will automatically miss the next game, that'll sort out the cheaters.

In the NRL here in Australia, if a player leaves the pitch because of the concussion protocols in place, they get a "free" substitution while the player is assessed by an independent medical professional / Doctor for a 10-minute period, the Doctor can then allow the player to return or rule them out of the game and then stand them down for the next 10 days.

This Doctor also assesses all contact during the game and can order a player to be removed from the pitch for the concussion review.

Different game I know, but it works pretty well

quick edit to add - if its a 2nd or 3rd etc. concussion, then the stood down period is much longer.

That won't happen. I think pgmol -and Webb in particular- are scared stiff of laying the law down to the red cartel. If this were another club, say at the foot of the table, Wolves, Burnley etc, Webb would go after them like a greyhound on a race track. The media probably wouldn't even report on it ("Who gives a fuck about the minnows in the Prem?"). But if he turned on any of the cartel he'd be thrown out of office within 24 hours.
I thought the man was a bully years ago and my train of thought has not been derailed since.

Probably appointed by the cartel like they appointed masters.

Playing like a billion pound Stoke is fine I suppose, it's not what I'd want but it's a perfectly acceptable approach.
It's the constant cheating I don't understand, is winning a title worth all the constant diving, fake head injuries, timeouts, WWE corners, snidey achilles rakes, haranguing the ref, etc, etc, etc.
I can understand Leicester fans celebrating a first in a few generations title despite diving and cheating their way to victory but Arsenal have won league titles relatively recently and are one of the richest clubs in the world, the way they play now and the possibility of cheating their way to a title must surely be embarrassing to the actual football fans, not social media followers, who've been going to matches for years.

The Tarquins wouldnt look out of place in some South American league, fucking embarrassing for a so called big club but this is all on captain black, this is how he wants them to play he’s the main orchestrator of this bunch of cheating twats. The players rightly get called out but Lego gets fuckall.

Blue tints off for a minute but I seriously don’t remember city playing like this at all in any game, yeh the odd dive here and there but don’t remember feigning injury
Keepers going down out of nowhere for a tactical, ridiculous time wasting etc
For me they don’t deserve the title
We get called cheats but until we are found guilty arsenal are the biggest cheats in the league.

Didn't Donnaruma go down for a tactical break earlier this season?

Didn't see the game the other night, but having watched that clip that Wolves posted, I genuinely think PGMOL need to do something to address the feigning of head injuries.

Ive absolutely no idea what they can do, but something needs to be done, because its a complete abuse of a law that was brought in to protect the players wellbeing.

Makes me laugh that Arsenal fans are probably the biggest mouthpiece of our 115 charges, and yet they showcase what is quite literally cheating on a weekly basis.

I'd be absolutely gutted if my side started doing this.

A minimum of 5 mins assessment off the pitch? With a substitute allowed, only if, its the goalie.
 
By the way, I dislike the diving, the feigning of injuries etc.

I just wanted to point out that the Trossard sub wasn't a concussion sub. We had only used 3 subs in 2 sub windows before, so don't believe everything you read on social media.

There are also stills where he looks like he takes a shoulder to the jaw. How much impact that has I don't know, but because others go down with head injuries too easy, I don't blame others for having a go.

He probably did, looked a bit staged from SS3 but, the goalie down action hardly got a mention in all the other games....City do it and all of a sudden it's a disgrace.

Maybe that's the answer to all the arse shit housing we should copy them for a game, that way it'd be highlighted.

We'd be charged with bringing the game into disrepute etc and get a couple of reds & numerous yellows.
