Mostly Arsenal, but also tennis, NBA and Pop Culture. Eager to learn a thing or two. Let’s go.
Anyway @arseblog.com @gunnerblog.bsky.social and Arseblog crew, who’s coming to Bruges this week? We gotta drink some Belgian beer to forget 😂😂

I am for continuity and I understand the influence of so many injuries, but where are the “Thomas Frank is a top coach” guys now? He’a certainly not bad, but he’s also certainly not great, and never was. Not a man for “big” clubs. The best option was, and is, at Bournemouth.
Tottenham Hotspur have lost three games in seven days since they returned from the November international break.

Expectations were low before Arsenal and Paris Saint-Germain, but they needed three points against Fulham.

Embarrassing 124-113 loss for the Bulls tonight. Missing Josh Giddey is tough, but bigger problem is that they haven't been able to protect the rim at all. Their defense has fallen apart since the hot start.

Look at who the Pistons had missing:

Bulls 135, Knicks 125.

Bulls improve to 5-0, last undefeated team in the East.

Answer me with trophies all you want, but it's obvious that nowadays the man coaching the current PL leaders sits at the same table.
Pep Guardiola has lost to Aston Villa in three consecutive away games - just the third time that has happened against one club in his coaching career.

So how does Unai Emery do it?

😂😂😂 Illegal man
This is Arsenal’s 9th clean sheet of the season.

They have played 12 matches.

It took them until December to have the 9th clean sheet last season coming after 21 matches played.

After a night's sleep the opinion remains the same: doesn't get any better than a deserved last minute winner against these f**** magpies 🫶 #ArsenalSky

Unbelievable
NO FOUL?

Fuck right off.

Taking the initiative has never been Frank’s game. Great coach, but not top notch precisely because of this. Not enough ideas and quality in organised attack in order to really dominate and take regular wins in these situations
FT 1-1. Spurs nick a point. They were pretty bad overall. Lots of big questions especially about games like this where they have to take the initiative. Injuries starting to tell a bit (Richarlison having to carry the attack). But better to draw this game than to lose it.

🏀📊 Rebuilt the database, so finding reasons to play around.

Using NBA matchup data (started in 2017-18) and one-number impact metrics to estimate offensive value, I look at the matchup difficulties on both ends for each player.

Outliers are mostly names you'd expect to see:
